I'm currently learning some marketing stuff, it's hard for a solo indie dev, especially one who hasn't had social media accounts for many years. Lot of catching up to do, but if I plan to sell my games I should probably do that. Any recommendations for educational resources on this would be welcome

Happy Trans Day of Visibility.
I hope that today Trans people can find more love in the world, and be joyous because you deserve it. Your joy is an act of rebellion that sends a message to those who would see you fall.

Most important mechanic in the game

A purple-clad wizard in a green and blue library facing a simple wooden chair with blue pads, in a simple cartoony style
The first piece of placeable furniture in my indie game #WhisperingStacks has been placed! At the moment I'm working on customisation for your reading nook, next steps are the ability to dye the chair, and interactivity so you can sit on the chair

I'm sure I've said it before but I absolutely love your art, this game looks beautiful
I know that feeling, music is so integral to the whole game experience and it's a very daunting task to create it. Everything in game dev can be daunting depending on your experience and expertise but I think that's part of why we love it, it can be a lot of fun to wear so many hats
I love a cute art style and happy to share something like this - wishlists are really important for Indie developers as they help get your game seen and promoted by the algorithms in Steam
The feature I'm most excited for in Godot 4.4 is Universal UID support - I'm prone to deciding I need to re-organise things, which you can blame on me being a virgo, if you like. This change is huge for me
For Science.
Currently working on a UI cleanup and controller support for #WhisperingStacks - the UI has been very mouse-driven up to this point, but I'm very much in favour of controller support for my games
As I look into localization for my game, I worry that I can barely be funny in one language
#IndieDev struggles
Today I sampled myself doing a big yawn and turned it into a monster roar
