Good to see people are still celebrating Brütal Legend!🤘 One of my favourite games and a huge influence on discovering my love for Metal.
I was also solid inspiration for #DevilJam and it's a dream come true to honour the amazing artists that define the genre through video games.

I cannot reveal yet who this "passive" belongs to in #DevilJam but a fun little anecdote that happened earlier this week...
#IndieDev #GameDev
It has been some time (busy, busy, busy) but Devil Jam's Free Demo received another update recently, adding a slick new HUD, improved SFX and a bunch of other improvements.
Give it a go if you want a break from your Silksong binge.

The #DevilJam Demo got a little update to show off more content of the final game as part of the SQOOL 2025 Game Awards. We've entered the Demo 2.0 stage so if you're interested, go check it out for free on Steam.

I might not be the most mature or professional colleague, but I am saying I'm probably the most fun one to work with...

Last week I saw a post about the Devil Jam Demo which I have mentioned a few times before and played on stream. The developers set a speedrun IL time of 1:18 for killing the demo boss Maggie. Today, I did this. If you doubt sub 50, you don't know me at all. #speedrun #indiegame

I do gotta say, the star of my Indie speedrun Saturday was clearly Devil Jam.
My video of the devil jam portion is available on my main YouTube channel: #speedrun

Going live in about 45 minutes for Obscure/Indie Speedrun Saturdays! Got 4 awesome games ready to go.

Should be possible if you're lucky with shrines and keep an eye out for the Devil sin. His stuff is risky but offers substantial DPS increases.
The update for #DevilJam Demo that I showcased on stream last Wednesday is now live on #Steam! Have a look if you haven't given it a try yet! See if you can beat my terrible speedrun record of 1:18 for Meggy. 😏

Best part of working on #DevilJam is just having the ability to nerd out about all kinds of Heavy Metal and cram as many references as possible into it. Hoping to get a reaction from fellow metalhead players during #Steam #NextFest going:

The original Creator and Director of Final Fantasy Tactics, Yasumi Matsuno, shared a message with the fans about the new game!

Within minutes of me uploading that clip on the company Discord, @ecchima.bsky.social immediately graced us with this wonderful piece:
Fun fact about #BestServedCold, when we discovered the Dialogue Plugin from @pixelcrushers.bsky.social had a built-in feature to play SFX per character, we naturally felt the need to test it in the most cursed way possible (sound).

Finally managed to catch a consistent MOR for a pseudo-invincibility bug in #DevilJam that's been eluding us and of course my meme-addled brain beings playing "It Has to Be This Way" from Metal Gear Rising on loop...
Programmer: Why won't you die?!
Me: Nanomachines, son.

Did I just send a #DevilJam test-build to the company named after a stupid pun I came up with while working? Yes, because feedback is very important and so is my psychological need to make dumb jokes, as described in the indie dev triangle:
#IndieDev #GameDev
One of the side-effects from working on #BestServedCold is that I am now in the know about making #Cocktails, and so shopping at the supermarket today now ends up with ingredients to make one of these...
#IndieDev
I'd give it a go but I don't think that would be fair...
We bet you will never guess who’s this Best Served Cold character 😏
Prove us wrong, and tell us in the comments who you think this is!

Me: "I'm in charge of balancing for #DevilJam . That means I keep playing and tweaking things until they feel right."
Them: "Wow, so you must be really good at the game from all that playing, right?"
Me: ...
