i'm just having a normal friday night reenacting the 1994 introduction of new labour within minecraft while @seanmorl.com tells me i've been learning chinese wrong.

Birds of Play Made with Tally, the simplest way to create forms.

We're planning a bird-themed Steam festival and if your game features birds you are welcome to submit it here. There more the merrier! tally.so/r/lbWro6

New game announcement!!!

I just find myself so drawn to Arthur Conan Doyle's most beloved literary creation, I can't keep away.

That's why I've created a BRAND NEW GAME featuring him.
And by 'him', of course I mean Professor Challenger.

i had to run out this morning and buy a new keyboard this sucks

this morning my faithful Ducky One 2 Mini keyboard died, just a little trill of usb disconnect, reconnect, and a final disconnect to mark its passing. you will be sorely missed.

also i thought Duckys lasted forever wtf

honestly the separation of 3 & 4 as different and distinct stages is a valuable thing to understand.

I made this image as a joke but my friends said that it was (mostly) reasonable enough to be taken seriously. So: Indie devs, what does your game need to do for you to see it as a success?

Note: except for the top tiers, most of the games shown do not relate to their tier.

Cairn - Technical Breakdown - Rock Rendering, Anthony Beyer I was lucky to work on Cairn as Technical Art Director, and now that the game has been released, I thought it might be interesting to share some of its "development secrets". At the beginning, i want...

when talking about the wide range of job roles in games i'd pull out examples and one of them was always

"there will literally be someone whose job it is to make rocks, and they will be some of the most technically accomplished things in the game"

vindication!

*No games that use Gen-AI please and thank you.

oh god there's so many genai capsules now, and it's 99% from dodgy-looking publishers that pump out loads of reskinned low quality games.

if you're releasing, please do better than this, or people will think your game is part of the same junkpile.

Do you dream of revenge on billionaires? THEN WE HAVE THE GAME FOR YOU. Back our indie game made with rage + love on Kickstarter NOW and play our BRAND NEW DEMO on Steam
