I solemnly swear that I will never design another indie game protagonist with a big cloak and maybe their little feed sticking out at the bottom

Why cant chiptune be chill why does it always have to be haunted house mega man circus stage type music

Years ago I decided to release all of Arclands assets under a CCBY4.0 licence. Even though the game hasn't released yet and I only uploaded a tiny fraction of the assets, I keep seeing art inspired by it. That's so cool! HOWEVER releasing commercial asset packs inspired by my art is corny as hell

It would have been so easy for Yacht Club Games to add a dodge roll to Minas combat, but they didn't. In turn they created a system that values positioning over reflexes, and I admire that. I love Soulslikes as much as the next person, but (1/2)

Loving Mina so far, but does anybody know when the meta changed to the player getting knocked back themselves when a meele attack hits? A lot of indies are doing it this way nowadays, and it feels so bad to me. To me the knockback communicates that my attack has been blocked in some way 🤷‍♂️

Oof woke up and the first thing I saw on the youtube front page was an indie game trailer with completely ai generated pixel art. Expecting to see this more and more, sadly :(

theres something so satisfying and neat about isometric interiors #pixelart

I'm a game design genius

2026 will be the year of the zx spectrum

It's crazy how many banner images of games in the steam next fest are AI generated

These copy pasta repost chains people have been doing on X are so cringe. Why can't you just talk about your game normally I guarantee that would be more effective

We released a browser based character creator with which you can create portraits in the Arclands style! It's basically the character creation part of the final game exported as a web app. :) jonkeller.itch.io/arclands-cha... #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

why tf is everybody calling The Duskbloods Bloodborne II??? The whole vibe is super japanese / anime and it's primarily pvp focused, I swear to god people see guns and vaguely gothic shit and put their blinders on.

so this was just fake then??? insanely disappointed

somebody has to come out and say it nobody needs this many marios
