Anybody else create a robot therapy game instead of going to actual therapy? #gamedev #solodev #therapy #robottherapy

Look at me, I am the assets now! You play as a drunk vampire cruising streaming platforms hoping to lure streamers to your bar. You combine words from your "thoughts" into sentences you send to the streamer. #gamedev #twitch #indiedev #absurd #badactor #drunkvampire #mature #immature

AI assisted music tools have made most of my gear redundant. Well, to be honest, software did that years ago. If you can’t beat em, join em.

Motto for an insurance company: “Lowest policy prices around, we ensure it.” But you have to say it with this face. You’re welcome, small insurance company with no marketing budget.

The Numb Digger is a philosophical allegory, sure...but it's also a clicking game about ice digging. #numbdigger #gamedev #solodev #indiedev #peoplehatethename #digging #allegorical #literarygaming

At the park with Patty (the electric unicycle.) Even when working remotely, I find that getting out of the home office environment is NECESSARY for me. I would say “screenless”, but the unicycle has a screen…and I’m obviously on my phone. #euc #touchgrass #toucheuc #remotetips #

What it looks like to chase your dreams all the way into hotel living…and not the fancy kind. If you’re in solo game development for the money, best of luck amigos. I’m in it to level up. #solodev #gamedev #levelup #grinding #getpoorquickscheme #sadselfies

Anybody interested in an EUC game? Electric unicycles are amazing. #euc #gamedev

I know AI in game dev isn't particularly popular right now, but I'm SORRY, how else can I create therapy patients that say something different every session? Check it out at noliesjustlove.com. free browser game. #therapy #solodev #indiedev #gameai #gooduseofai #satire #robottherapy #bangertheme

Tool I use to make a lot of my assets. I skip included rasters and just have Love2D draw what I drew from code at runtime. Is there a point to this? .........shut up, it's cool. that's the point. #solodev #solodevelopment #worksmarter #maketools #pixeltocode #adarkfable #icantdrawforshit

I've had some personal setbacks lately. Tough year. Only thing to do is keep pushing forward with what you love. Get better, pay your dues, remain consistent. Anyway, I cut a new trailer for Downer Management. store.steampowered.com/app/4668480/... #antiwork #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #retro

Dragons Die is out! It's a small game about #dragons, quaintness and #loss or maybe it's a game about triumphantly taking back lost Holds of a fallen dragon dynasty. #gamedev #solodev #indie #majorupdate #adarkfable #indiedev #nomarketing #hiddengem #peggs store.steampowered.com/app/4693930/...

Fun update for A.K.O - Arrow Keys Only. Aside from some major QOL updates and mode enhancements... I got local multiplayer working. This goes well with the new Squadron mode. As always, it's arrow keys only. store.steampowered.com/app/4594440/... #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #bullethell #update #ako

In Downer Management, you create your own theme song. Title screen, battle screens, hub and victory screens all play variants of it. If you don't like the music, TAKE IT UP WITH YOURSELF. #gamedev #solodev #procgen #daw #production #synth #musicalgames #makebeats #love2d #lua #steam #thisshitlitlol

I always mean to post more shareables from Downer Management. Half the things in this game let you download PNGs or wavs. #downermanagement #artifacts #fireside #irony #sharpmockery

Bloodweight 2.0 also introduces the 'World Builder' mode. You'll be able to create your own world, rival houses, religions, customs and more. The Soul Teller (in one of 4 distinct voices) will narrate the mess when you're done. store.steampowered.com/app/4522140/... #bloodweight #indiedev #gamedev

Aside from smaller QoL enhancements, I've been working on a much larger update to Bloodweight. Bloodweight 2.0 is finally fulfilling the promise of guiding a lineage across TIME. Distinct eras from the ancient all the way to ...now? store.steampowered.com/app/4522140/... #gamedev #indiedev #update

Updated my dynasty simulator Bloodweight (store.steampowered.com/app/4522140/...) In addition to the shareable URL, you can read your dynasty's story in-game. The Soul Teller hasn't gotten any kinder though. #bloodweight #indiedev #grimdark #dynasty #storytelling #gamedev #adarkfable #literature

Congratulations!! I've been following you and your community for a couple of years, and I'm glad to see the branding born from the organic growth of the project.

Going live for a little bit to playtest Downer Management. I'm mostly taking polish notes, searching for bugs, and hunting for those little mistakes that make your 1.0 look like Early Access. #twitch #adarkfable #downermanagement #livedev #devstream #solodev #hitthelinemyself #badcommentary

I was playing some A.K.O (store.steampowered.com/app/4594440/...) last night on Twitch. Getting ready for Steam's Bullet Fest. On a scale of 1-10, how gangster are my Kite Dash noises? Be honest. #twitch #bullethell #indiegames #adarkfable #love2d #noassets #bulletfest #bulletheaven #devstream

Every boss in #downermanagement decorates their office differently. I'm partial to mini-fridges and therapy crows, but you have options. #indiedev #solodev #wishlist #steam #autobattler #customize #decorate #Love2D #indie #gamedev #jackal

adarkfable @adarkfable.com · 03/06/2026

In #downermanagement, when you create your playable boss, a rival is generated for you. A true nemesis. This game is more about making new work enemies instead of new work friends.

adarkfable @adarkfable.com · 03/06/2026

Downer Management trailer. The game is ready to go, but I'm doing some polish work and bug squashing before release. Hopefully I can get the word out while Im doing that. I have BIG plans for this title, including scaffolded DLC. #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #adarkfable #wishlist #love2d

Putting up some trailers for Downer Management. It's a 3 vs 3 autobattler. If you can't tell, I've never enjoyed stints in corporate america. #indiedev #adarkfable #gamedev #anticapitalism #steam #wishlist #autobattle #nowork #love2d #brashtags

I was on #twitch last night playing a little #Bloodweight. In this clip, I briefly describe some of the #literary inspiration behind the Soul Teller's (the AI chronicler) style. Just a typical #indiedev talking about typical game stuff. #fantasy #wolfe #theroad #faulkner #adarkfable

adarkfable @adarkfable.com · 20/05/2026

This is a bloodline I was testing a while back. The Soul Teller dismantled me on the chronicle itself. Check it out. He is not kind.

I love this game, legitimately. The Soul Teller's write-up of your dynasty's legacy gets me everytime. He's merciless.
