Found this in new WoW expansion.. it can't be a reference to our game. Can it?

A beautiful sunset on a year that had a lot of ups and downs for me and I’m grateful for all of it. Cheers and I’m excited to find out what 2026 has in store. ❤️

This feels like a pretty big moment for me. A few months ago I didn't think I'd have a game on the Popular Upcoming list anytime soon. But we did it! I want to take a moment to share a strange feeling I've been having. Confidence. #gamedev #godot #steam #indiedev #indie

I just added some new tile shapes to Hexagod since I wanted to make tile placement a bit more interesting. The build is live now on Steam! #indiegame #indiedev #hexagons #godot #gamedev store.steampowered.com/app/3059390/...

I added minions to help break down asteroids and collect the matter. #gamedev #indiegame #indie #indiedev #godot

I made the clicking have an AOE to reduce the number of clicks. Next I'll add an early upgrade for an auto-clicker feature. What else should I add? #gamedev #godot #inide #idle #indiedev

Trying out clicking asteroids to break them down into raw matter. Gif doesn't have sound, but it feels so good to play and I've barely even added juice! #godot #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

I think Steam broke or maybe I'm about to get very rich off the millions of new wishlists Chess Survivors just got.. 🤔 #gamedev #steam #indie #indiedev #godot

Early Access week 1 Steam wishlist additions for Hexagod is +1448. I'd probably see Hexagod and also wait for the full release since I don't have a lot time these days to play a game that is not fully cooked. Hopefully a good sign for the "long tail" of sales. #gamedev #inide #indiegame #godot

Working on an indicator to show movement costs. What do you think? #gamedev #godot #indiedev #indiegame

Steam Next Fest Day 3: +94 bringing Hexagod up to 2,330 total Wishlists. Total added is so far is 331 (+16.6%) from the starting point of 1,999. I wonder if there will be a weekend bounce? #gamedev #nextfest #indie #indiegame #godot

Steam Next Fest Day 1: +85 (+4.3%) for a total of 2,084 Wishlists Lowering my expectations because: 1. More demos than when I had a game in the Oct 2022 Fest 2. Steam removed dedicated stream slots which my gut says helped small games (like mine) get found #gamedev #nextfest #indie #indiegame

Ok, after another day of cooking on the Steam capsule for Hexagod (and getting a ton of help from my community, ty all) here is what I'm going to use for the Next Fest. I might still commission a full art version but that is TBD.

Reworking the my Steam Capsule Art for Hexagod (aka the cover of the game) 👍or 👎?

Aarimous @aarimous.com · 04/02/2025

Today I'm working on the art for tile improvements. My goal is to stick with the flat minimalistic art of the tile, but add one notch more of detail so the art stands out against the tiles. Can you give me a simple thumbs up or down for my art direction? #art #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

I added two new shapes to the tile placement mechanic in my game Hexagod! Which shapes should I added next? #gamedev #godot #indie #indiegame #steam

Aarimous @aarimous.com · 07/01/2025

You can now change the orientation when placing tiles! This is is a huge QoL feature, and an idea I only got after watching my friends playtest my game Hexagod. Should have a new demo build up later this week ☺️ #gamedev #indie #indiegame #godot #hexagod

Sneak peak of the Discoverable Islands feature I'm adding to Hexagod for some more replayability. Naturally this is leading me to explore more #roguelike vibes. So why not go all the way and make it a roguelike village builder? 🤔 #indie #indiedev #indiegame #godot

Wild to see how many hours I streamed this year on #Twtich and even crazier to see that people set 57k chat messages. Thanks for helping make 2024 one of the best years of my life (so far). I'm excited for 2025! #gamedev #godot

Working on the tile placement system for how you place clusters of 4 hex tiles on a dynamic grid. Could still use some work, but I'm happy with today's progress. What do you think? #GameDev #IndieDev #Godot #Hexagod #IndieGames

Lol, took me less than two days to get more follower here than on Twitter. As such I've deleted my Twitter account.

It's funny to see all my old thumbnail pictures without knowing the context of the video I used them for😁

Messing around with some custom tethering and trailer physics for some sort of a space mining/hauling prototype. A bit rough right now, but I'm happy to have something working after bashing my head against the math for a few hours. #gamedev #godot #indiegame #indiedev
