We just announced Basalt: The Cursed Vein! A grim roguelite match-3 where you mine, rebuild, and face things best left underground. The deeper you dig, the greater the rewards, but the villagers warn: Don’t dig too deep! We’re making this game together with @rubarb.bsky.social

ordep.dev/posts/writin... The marginal cost of adding new software is approaching zero, especially with LLMs. But what is the price of understanding, testing, and trusting that code? Higher than ever.

More ads, more AI, more stable editor, and fewer employees to handle it all. Latest from Unity. 80.lv/articles/exc...

gamedev.city is like HackerNews for gamedev. So much cool content in one place! Went straight on my browser startup page. #gamedev

The Games playlist I maintain on Spotify just surpassed 2,000 songs, 116 hours of music. Should be enough for a few work days. Features soundtracks from Crypt of the Necrodancer, Fez, Teardown, Silent Hill, SOMA, Slime Rancher, Limbo, Minecraft, Below, etc. #gamedev open.spotify.com/playlist/5NA...

Ah, yes, I remember playing Balatro 95 back in my dad's office

I've always been nervous about copying other games, even though I always do. This quote made me feel less nervous about it. 😄

Dragonsweeper is one of those games that makes me wish I was smart enough to have come up with the idea myself. Try it, it's good! danielben.itch.io/dragonsweeper

While trying to make sense of my own GDScript code, I used a sequence diagram to visualize the code flow. This turned out to be a very simple and very useful tool for getting a birds eye view of my code. @mandarin.bsky.social https://forum.godotengine.org/t/share-wars-have-fun-bankrupting-your-fri…

I've been seeing a lot of pixel artists struggle with Bluesky's image compression, so I'd thought I'd share how to get clear, crisp pixels on the site! Share to help a fellow pixel-artist! #pixelart #tutorial

What a fun experience Ballionaire is! The visuals, animations, audio, gameplay, it's so well made. Congrats! Great to see that it's made with Godot #madewithgodot store.steampowered.com/app/2667120/...

That was smart! 👏

Check out Dig Dig Boom! It’s a different kind of mining game.

The Bustling World looks amazing! Would like to try it. I get exhausted thinking about how many hours it must have taken to make all those assets. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AY0u...

I never thought I would say something like this, but Godot has made setting up UI a fun experience. #godot

Daily Godot Tip #32: You can use @ icon to assign a custom icon to a node instead of it having the default icon. You will need to close and then reopen the node to see the changes and icon must be put before the class declaration #godot #gamedev #godottips

Does your #godot game startup slowly? Do you use NoiseTexture2D by chance as textures in some materials? Check this thread to find out how you can unknowingly ruin your game startup time + level load times either instantly, or slowly over time by using unbaked noise textures. 🧵 #techart #Gamedev

Why does 'finding the fun' fail so often as a design strategy? #gamedesign New designers are told to prototype and 'find the fun'. But the naive version of this is a garbage tactic that mostly results in poorly thought out prototypes that are never going to converge on gameplay.

@carolecadwalla.bsky.social knew it earlier than most of us and paid a high price for pointing it out. She’s back now and not for a cheap ‚told you so‘. But to warn us again. It’s late. But not too late. Just read this. 👇

The soundtrack to Teardown is super nice for programming sessions! Check out both part 1 and 2. #gamedev open.spotify.com/album/57zMfC... and open.spotify.com/album/0VCZGN...

Breaking news! Rubarb is on Itch. ✨ We really love experimenting and playing with ideas in rough states.. *and* we believe in sharing! Warts and all 🧌 Cool guy Simon will dump all of his prototypes on Itch for you to see and try at https://rubarbgames.itch.io/

Dan the funding man recently secured 200,000 NOK from Viken Film Centre for his game Bargainer! He is already busy learning Godot. Wish him luck! @danwakefield.bsky.social https://vikenfilmsenter.no/tildeling/bargainer/

The soundtracs for Dome Keeper are really good! Makes for a pleasant programming session. :-) vol 1: open.spotify.com/album/6S9mSj... vol 2: open.spotify.com/album/2s2wjC...

Our programmer is making a game called Share Wars, and has started a devlog over at the official Godot forums! Give him a follow so that he feels the pressure 🗜️ to actually finish the game. 😄 @mandarin.bsky.social https://forum.godotengine.org/t/share-wars-have-fun-bankrupting-your-friends/87328

Sane advice on gamedev, from @jakobwahlberg.bsky.social Some of them resonates with the learnings Sid Meier presents in his memoirs.

So many awesome people in one handy list! go.bsky.app/Bih7pqu
