the least fun part writing a game in C# is the last 30% of the dev cycle where you make all the code objectively worse to avoid allocations 🥲

More people should play the game Cobalt Core, I think it is the first game I’ve 100% completed on steam. #art #fanart #cobaltcore #cobaltcorefanart

Greatly enjoyed Cobalt Core by @braceyourselfgames.com - so here's Riggs, the somewhat-scatterbrained ace pilot of your starship crew, with a cup of boba and her hand cannon that she can *absolutely* be trusted with. (Pose was inspired by a piece by @beezii.bsky.social, go check them out too!)

Still looking for more alpha testers for KERO, my 2D game framework for Rust! It's like MonoGame or LÖVE, but in Rust! If you're new to Rust or experienced, anyone is welcome, I think coding games is a cool way to learn a language. CRATE: crates.io/crates/kero DISCORD: discord.gg/AYjNw9WHJa

People say that music and sound in games can be “invisible” to players. But imo that’s also an opportunity to make them feel feelings without realizing why?

so the winds have shifted once again and i believe i will, in fact, be open sourcing my rust game dev framework. i wasn’t going to but i got some help and think if i can get one or two more additional core people to help manage it by the end of next year, that would be ideal

This set of observations is produced by my scrolling Reddit and otherwise listening to people talk about "how to write." A) there is no requirement that any of your characters has any sort of "arc" let alone a redemption. B) there is also no requirement that your fiction has a plot.

Cobalt Core is a part of IGN’s Award Nominations Humble Bundle, along with other amazing titles like Chicory and I was a Teenage Exocolonist (some of our Vancouver indie friends) You can get an awesome discount while supporting a great cause with @takethis.org www.humblebundle.com/games/award-...

why does my cat look like he’s about to advise me that it is better for an emperor to be feared than to be loved???

#pixelart #aseprite You cant handle them...

the part of my brain that likes learning new programming languages is perpetually at war with the fact that C# is basically the perfect language for making the kind of games I make

starting an hourly service where a 30 year old guy in a flannel shirt will follow you around and "yes and" all your bits

Did ancient people in the BC years know what they were counting down towards or nah?

imo sending someone an email or message written by an llm is a hostile act

you know what? *entombs you in the orb*

i wouldn't call it impostor syndrome exactly but i do feel like the seed idea of cobalt core was a shiny diamond we found after 10000 hours in the game ideation mines, and i yearn to find another

All the fonts in cobalt core and sunshine are by Chevy

It is objectively good for people to be able to mod your game easily. I was concerned if we were gonna be moddable but the community cracked the game open like a big juicy coconut before we even launched

How we stared vs how we are now 💛 #pixelart #ドット絵

Yay!!!! i finished #shiptember2025 here they all are

the “this could’ve been an email” for programming is “this could’ve been an array”

oh your cat has an instagram account? mine is on linkedin

checking the community cobalt core wiki for info about cards even tho i have the source code open right in front of me

lossless png? no thank you, i prefer the analog warmth of jpeg compression artifacts

why does music hit 10x harder on headphones on an airplane

Learned that I am being laid off from Heart Machine, and will be leaving the studio later this month. Do you need a contractor? I've got a track record of leading scope-friendly script revisions late in dev. I have also done a lot of consulting on new IPs and pitches/demos. Feel free to DM me!

i think this article + chart are a really interesting idea, but i think the # of credits axis needs some refinement. the core team for cobalt core was 3 people, but for instance we also have like 50 people in the credits for the various localization teams (which we are happy to credit, of course!)

welcome to 💥CRASHOUT CREW💢 form a crew of up to 4 overworked friends and drift into a frantic co-op forklift experience where teamwork is key, disaster is inevitable and managing stress is all on you. DEMO drops Oct 13th as part of Steam Next Fest‼️ it's time to clock tf in.

hi ben

what's this guy's problem

We have stuff like this too. The “make the whole thing” part of making a game is a lot easier if you make tools to help you do it (and especially ones that give you an overview of your progress / remaining work)
