We swedes really like to create really complex bureaucratic systems. Which sometimes is a good thing! But in this case it was incredibly frustrating 😅

Today I'm doing my first real proper workday as game designer, co-founder and CEO at @splendidfailures.bsky.social.

I've crawled through Swedish bureaucracy to secure a grant that gives med financial support, but I've finally arrived at the starting point. Feels good!

I'm designing a custom MtG set based on a DnD campaign I ran for multiple years. The players were all skilled artists so I have a lot of art to use, but not enough to cover all cards. So today me and my 2 year old son made a co-lab artwork for a basic Forest

Awesome stuff! I've been wanting to make a schoolyard soccer playing card game for a long time. I was very inspired by the Blood Bowl card game back in the day. Love this take!

The environment in our game, A Corporate Machine, is inspired by tech and interior decoration from the 70s to the 90s. But with more advanced capabilities like wireless communication protocols and one heck of a smart robot vacuum cleaner. #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #blender #godot

In A Corporate Machine you play as Sanitron TC-84, the world's most overqualified robot vacuum cleaner.
Unseen and underappreciated, but also free to shake things up!

Joe Abercrombie is the 🐐. I've read or listened to almost all of his books. I love them all! Before They are Hanged is truly fantastic.

A timeline visually representing the advice from my post, emphasising how dramatically and reliably having more time, with a testable build, converts to your game being better and your studio being safer.

I've been running an indie games studio for 15 years now, and it felt like a good time to boil down what I've learned into 4 pieces of advice:

I hope it's of use, not least because goddamn I forgot how long blog posts take to write.

Some progression on the look-development environment for A Corporate Machine. Lots of pipeline work done to make asset creation in #blender easier and exporting to #godot smoother #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev

We had a fun time showing off A Corporate Machine at a #gamedev pub, hosted by @swedengamearena.bsky.social. It’s an uncontrolled environment, and getting lots of hands on it when it’s early and rough really lets you see what the biggest hurdles are for players to get in to the loop. #Indeigame

This week: Continued work on the prototype, talks with potential partners, and making some serious progress on our Blender to Godot pipeline. Our 3d-artist is weirdly proud to let you know that the Godot-shot is only three draw calls 🤷 #gamedev #indiegame #blender #godot #screenshotsaturday
