Can beaver wetlands create a buzz and a flutter for pollinators? 🦫🦋 A new study, carried out by Senior Ecologist Patrick Cook for his PhD at the University of Stirling, revealed that wetlands created by beavers have 45% more butterflies than those created by people.

Hippity hop. Hope you all are having a froggy Wednesday everybody! 🐸 #indiedev #gamedev #frog #frogs

Had a fantastic time at Gamayo @gamerepublic.bsky.social on Thursday! It was great to get to meet and talk to so many other game devs, and see the awesome games everyone is working on. Thank you so much everyone who played City of Corals! 🐠

Working on new moth models for #MothTerra, let us know which moth you would add first to the #MothGardenGame ✨🦋 #Indiegame #gamedev

Make sure to market your indie games!🌿 I've posted a video about Tiny Terraces for the past 22 days, adding 4,757 wishlists!🤯 The graph shows the lowest day of 8 gained, and the highest being 584 (after conversions and deletions) #indiedev #pixelart #videogames #gamedev

Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics" guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

Moth Terra #indiegame is now available to wishlist on Steam. Aiming for release on Mothtober 2027! If you like relaxing strategy games, and/or Moths, please wishlist! 💜 ✨🦋 store.steampowered.com/app/4086570/...

🧵 New paper out now from the Play for the Planet Network! 🎲 Learning through play? What board games reveal and conceal about climate change By Lynda Dunlop, @joucoski.bsky.social and Prasad Sandbhor (2025) 📖 Environmental Education Research 🔗 buff.ly/DiXOS8i

Yes! A lot has changed since that Article. Here's a more up to date story, in the Guardian: www.theguardian.com/games/2025/a...

Halloween is for the goths and moths 📣 So we're kicking off our spooky countdown with the aptly-named Feathered Gothic (Tholera decimalis). A common moth, well distributed throughout most of Britain, but very local further north. 📷: Rob Blanken #MothMonday #TeamMoth

#Inktober2025 / #mothtober2025 progress! 🦋📖✨ Working on 3D modelling the moths in the background for #MothTerra 🦋🌿 the moth strategy game! #handdrawn #indiegame #gamedev #illustration #moths #mothsmatter

Butterflies need more lawns! More than half of UK butterfly species are in decline, and our research shows that by letting grass grow long, you can increase numbers by up to 93%. 🌱

Glowing up the UI and background for #MothTerra, ready for the Steam page! I am keeping the darker background and incorporating a dynamic system! ✨🦋 #gamedev #indiegame #gameart #cozygame #strategygame

Just about keeping up with #MothTober2025 / #Inktober2025 with #conceptart for the Magpie and Convolucus Hawk Moth! #Handdrawn #Moths #MothTober #Inktober 🦋🌙

#PortfolioDay is over already but I hope you don't mind my late participation! This year I finally concentrated on improving my toon skills in 3D. ⛏️

30 wishlists? Very cool. Would be cooler if it was 40 tho. #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev

Help us decide which draws you more! 🦋🦋🦋 #gamedev #mothterra #indiegame #sologamedev #cozygame

Even butterflies are losing their colours as forests are replaced by monocultures. Without protection for native habitats, the most vibrant species could vanish. It is not too late. In forests allowed to recover, colour and life return.

Very pleased to see submissions to the special issue on Game Advertising of ACM Games: Research and Practice coming in. This is a last call! Deadline is 31 October 2025. We're looking forward to your submission, and if you need a smol extension… Slide into our emails. 😉 dl.acm.org/pb-assets/st...

Working on an upgraded look for #MothTerra, I'm also going to prettify the UI in preparation for the Steam Wishlist Launch. Illness has delayed things a week or so 😂 #gamedev #indiegame

I have fallen sick this week, so a little behind #inktober2025 / #MothTober2025 but I have a rough drawing of the Iris and #angelshadesmoth I will be digitally painting and 3D modelling all the #moths soooon #inktoberday2 #inktoberday3 #handrawn #art

Tiny, colorful baby scallops — a total cuteness overload in one dish! You might think, “This person posts the same creature every year!” But honestly, seeing the same life return year after year is something truly wonderful𓂃🫧‪

First time coming across the phrase sociotechnical. Usage: I adore working in the NHS but find myself often frustrated by socioeconomic pressures increasing sociotechnical risks and incidents. Adequate funding would reduce issues and therefore improve care outcomes and staff wellbeing. ✌️

Hi I wrote about Little Problems by Posh Cat Studio because I am here for a detective game where the biggest mysteries include “who broke my favourite mug?” and “where is my essay?” www.theguardian.com/games/2025/s...

It’s also free on Windows! store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/stra...

How thinky are these two upcoming games about creating creatures one cell at a time?

✨ It’s been a tough week, so I’ve been a bit quiet… but I’m back with more #MothGame updates! Starting to playtest a little demo of #MothTerra 🦋🌙 #ScreenshotSaturday #gamedev #indiegame. Still so many bugs to fix 😭

Been up early at the beach. ☀️ 🐶

Interesting paper using @ukbms.bsky.social data to examine extreme weather impacts on butterfly populations. Winter heatwaves and periods of high rainfall appear bad for many species. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... 🌍
