Neat! People were asking me which games I'd want to develop into standalone ones from Stuck in a Broken Tutorial. The falling-block platformer seems like an interesting candidate. This is quite the twist, too!

Hey, I was actually lurking in your stream for a bit while responding to questions/concerns online! I should have said something. 😭 I'm glad you enjoyed it! Also, shout-out to @inhumanbaron.bsky.social for being excited to see Skeleseller in the stream. 😁

Here's a fun #gamedev exercise: what's the minimal set of filters you have to add on Steam to make it look like your game is the #1 most popular upcoming game?

It took ~16 months, but Skeleseller finally has 10k wishlists! 🎉 It launches in just two more months (March 17th). Hopin' I can garner even more wishlists before then. 🤞 #steam #gamedev #celebration

Do *you* know a game dev trying to release a game? If so, give them a hug because they are STRUGGLING.

Adam @adamlearns.bsky.social · 03/01/2026

It only took >1 year, but you can *finally* bring customers an item that they desire—no more having to wait for them to walk aaaaaall the way across town. They'll also tip a comically large amount if you've already found valuable loot! #indiegame #gamedev #idlegame #screenshotsaturday

We had a working name of "Sellaton", but the name never actually appears in the game, nor can the player name them (Skeleseller is relatively light on story and dialogue). 😅

Skeleseller has a launch date—March 17th, 2026. I'm UNREASONABLY EXCITED! 🎉 #gamedev #indiegame #skeletons #casualgame #rpg

I wrote silly descriptions for most of the boss items in Skeleseller, but people rarely see them, so here are my favorites. #indiegame #idlegame #steam

The Skeleseller demo finally passed the 50-review threshold on Steam, meaning it now shows as VERY POSITIVE! 🎉 Next stop: 500 reviews! #gamedev #indiegame #steam #devlog #godotengine

@smallsthekobold.bsky.social Hey, I tried your game! I have some feedback (feel free to ignore it). I'm attaching it as an image because I'm on my Windows machine which has no real access to my GitHub or personal site for uploading text more permanently than a paste service. :(

Adam @adamlearns.bsky.social · 09/06/2025

New perk: GARBAGE TIME! Workers won't clog shops again. 😤 (I recommend enabling sound on this video for an explanation of what's happening) P.S. Skeleseller will be in Next Fest TOMORROW! 🎉 #indiegame #gamedev #idlegame #godot #screenshotsaturday #devlog #indieshowcase

You can now resize battle windows in Skeleseller (small, medium, or L A R G E)! Elite battles will automatically take place in the largest size. (the sizes look tiny in this GIF, but they're much more reasonable in-game) #gamedev #indiegame #idlegame #screenshotsaturday #godot #godotengine

Here's how automatic battling looks in Skeleseller. The adventurers do all of the work so that you can relax! 😛 store.steampowered.com/app/3226210/... #gamedev #indiegame #idlegame #screenshotsaturday

Just a little GIF of the new item-purchase animation in Skeleseller (it's sort of subtle). I'm happy with how it turned out! #gamedev #indiegame #idlegame #screenshotsaturday

Hey, Skeleseller is only desktop platforms for now (Windows, macOS, and Linux), but if it does well after launch, we may make mobile versions. And Bot Land is in the process of being open-sourced, although there won't be any active development on it. 😢 Thanks for following! 😁

Adam @adamlearns.bsky.social · 10/04/2025

Thanks! 😁 It's been in development for juuuust about a year now, and we're getting it ready for Next Fest in June. Lots of rounds of feedback have led us to our current set of systems. I didn't/can't do art myself; the credits are here: docs.google.com/document/d/1...
