And a merry why does the microwave need the date if it's not to do this itself to you.

When I went to Jewel yesterday my biggest concern was how ICE is using that parking lot as a staging area.

When @aceottorney.bsky.social first told me about this I said "this could change people's lives and stop developers from getting exploited" and having seen the final resource, I think I was not wrong. I'd call it a must-bookmark for indie devs.

That's right! Also when you focus on getting a complete game first, you can submit at any point. Every iteration after it is bonus.

Australia Did It - Reveal Trailer
Australia Did It - Reveal Trailer YouTube video by MysticForge

It's been a while.

Glad to be announcing a new game, and happy that it is something experimental and weird: a tiny, tense, turn-based strategy game about merging units into spectacular combinations, and then watching them evaporate thousands of bugs.

Important changes are coming to Glitch We’ve got an important update for the Glitch community today: We’ll be ending web hosting for your apps on Glitch.

At Heroku, we basically destroyed a generation of folks personal projects when we deprecated various free plans. (My own software died too.) Now Glitch is making the hard decision to do the same: blog.glitch.com/post/changes...

The lesson is simple: don't build in the cloud if you want it to last.

Playdate with the image of fireworks and the text 2.7.2

There's a Playdate OS/SDK update out today, 2.7.2. (Get it in Settings > System > System Update).

While it doesn't have a lot of features for players, it sets the stage for a big new part of Playdate: networking. That means developers can start writing things like—that's right—multiplayer games.

It's been a while since I've done this, and the world is bleak - so we can all use a little art & creativity.

What is everyone creating nowadays? Games, art, music, video, writing, anything - whether it is early, almost done, or just shipped. Feel free to include trailers, images, links - whatever.
