Help me spread the word if you played this game and enjoyed it, or just want to help me out. Quote posting this can go a long way. I also have an account in the other place if you want find to repost there. 👇🏼

Fun fact: Julia asked me to help out with a little bit of VO processing and cleanup, and it wasn't until after I'd finished that I realized I'd been editing Elijah Wood's voice :D

Congrats on the release, @juliaminamata.bsky.social! We (as @edmundito.com) helped out with making this possible. We helped add character spacing support to #AdventureGameStudio, among other technical details.

We are still looking for folks for our next #playtest! If you love #AgathaChristie, a #cozymystery, and #puzzlegames you should come play our #indiegame #SecondStab🗡🗡 Come join the community and sign up on Discord! discord.gg/UEdRat5B3U

The most shocking part is that Star Wars will be 50 years old in two years. That was…

If you wonder why the web is broken this morning… I got woken up in the middle of the night by my work paging system.🥱

I grew up playing this little one because my family didn’t have a lot of money. It still runs

Having fixed all the (known) bugs and glitches, I'm now adding extra interactions to my #109AdvChal game "Intern's First Day" to release as a post-jam update when the voting period is over in 4 days. #indiedev #pointandclick #adventuregame

My three new accessibility buttons on iOS 26: - Reduce motion - that one has been on since iOS 7 - Reduce transparency- I had it off for some time, then on, now back to off - Color filter to grayscale - That is good at night or when I want to see a movie in Black and a white

It’s out! Available both in English and a Spanish. It’s been a huge effort that started with a wild idea in 2023 that led to partnering with @postmodernadv.bsky.social to adapt this game.

Once again bringing up Talon which I've now used on my tower and laptop. Ripped out copilot, edge in the search bar, store stuff, and a bunch of other useless garbage. youtu.be/tsMfNKcd298?...

One of my recent dreams is to be able to provide French translations for the lovely games I’m helping with. There are a good number of parts in the world that speak French. And yet I see Figma, with a billion in money (but -millions in profit), getting around French translations after 9 years.

Excited to see more handheld options but hesitant to put effort if things are this way. Xbox seems like a circus right now. I feel bad for my friend who have been on Xbox for years.

Great games. We are working with @meredithgran.com to make these available on consoles, starting with Nintendo Switch/2.

I can't be the only one who types the bluesky address and ends up here.

Happy Amazon Prime Day! Amazon collects mountains of data about how you use the service, but there is a setting you can change to make it harder for the company to use that data to sell you more things. #OptOutOctober www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

The cat's out of the bag! I've been working on this (through my tiny company @clickpulp.com) for the past year, creating a new port for #AdventureGameStudio for Nintendo Switch, and designing a new controller scheme that feels more natural for gamepads while maintaining the point-and-click gameplay.

Today, I randomly found this glass cleaning cloth with all of the #EA leadership competencies. I must have gotten this around 2012-2013 when I was an employee there. Which of these still holds up?

I watched this many times as a kid and I bet it was the first look at what making a game was like for so many people

Does anyone else calls it “pokemoning” when your child shows a new ability?

Excited to introduce Vibes from Meta. Eat your slop, piggies!

Tonight I'm prepping for class by playing some games of Hearts against King Graham and Larry Laffer. That's right--I'm streaming Sierra's 1989 Hoyle's Official Book of Games, which pits you against adventure game heroes and Sierra employees (and their children): www.twitch.tv/bluewyvernn

Thanks to @edmundito.com and his coding wizardry, I now have a cool magnifying glass effect in my game. Doing little tricks like this in AGS is always fun.

We still need to fight more against DRM. I want to buy a movie digitally from any store and put it on any device or storage without depending on the app/service where it came from.

I’ve been reading the wrong horoscope this whole time. My whole life is a sham! 😭

I’m publishing a game on Switch very soon! Las night I played all the way through and happy with where it’s at. Now I’m waiting for the Nintendo gods to review the submission.

Our Bitsy Book has an Amazon page! It's a mix of textbook and tutorial that could be useful for anyone who wants to teach with Bitsy or folks who want to get started making games. (The actual cost should be like $40. Pre-order now to enjoy that sweet price drop.) www.amazon.com/Storytelling...

Read the history of this painting and the historical context on when it was made. If you’re in Madrid at some point in your life, make time to see it. There is nothing like seeing it in person.

Portfolio update time! So many clients' projects have been launched or announced since I last touched it. Quick catch-up to highlight what I've been working on the past year or so… jesshaskins.com/portfolio

ROSEWATER Steam reviews have stalled in the last couple of weeks and the Recent Reviews have shown Mixed for long enough that I worry it's affecting sales. If you have something nice to say, leaving a Positive review would be most appreciated! store.steampowered.com/app/1226670/...

For the Grim Fandango fans

Bad (or the best?) game idea of the day: Republican Civilization, a Civ parody where you build the ultimate civilization envisioned by the GOP/USian Republican party. The theme song: Crap-a-yetu… 🎶

Thinking about the #Amiga which was where I learned how to edit with a computer (with a program called Toaster?). Looking back at this video from ‘85, it was a personal computer ahead of its time, surely overshadowed by the success of PC clones. youtu.be/Tl6092fMkZY?...

Why you need to sell your games on smaller independent like @fireflowergames.bsky.social and support those platforms too.

Hi friends! My team is casting 5 voice actors for contract roles in our combat-focused video game! Ideally remote voice talent with home recording setups. We’re seeking authentic representation for the following roles:

I am still figuring out logistics (and Rami has kindly offered to help a lil!), but I’ve been putting together a means for game devs to present GDC-style ‘talks’ on @playwatchlisten.bsky.social. When it’s public, devs will be able to submit a topic for consideration, and will be paid for their time!

Wellllll since folks are asking, here’s the game jam game I made earlier this year to learn Godot — “Never Let Them See You Fart” (made with @mellybelly.bsky.social) carolmertz.itch.io/never-let-th...

Hello friends! My team is looking for a musician / audio designer for contract work on our combat-focused game! We're looking for music that's catchy, energetic, featuring chopped vocals, funky rhythms, and a seamless mix of hip-hop, electronic, and funk.
