Since I recently mostly uploaded to instagram, I hereby pay my duty 🫡 The 3d trackmap I wanted to do since day one (which is a year ago by this point) It reveals the true shape of the track you are racing on, because from within the tunnel its not easy to gauge #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #ps1

So me sharing my phone number in a DM on instagram and today getting multiple phone calls from different countries is no coincidence - is it? 🤔

Wait, how did I not post about the interview with @phaser.io here? I looked towards unity and godot some years ago and still cant fathom that I just am able to continue phaser for my games big and small - what an engine :) phaser.io/news/2026/06...

70 Fußballfelder Ackerland, Millionen Liter Kühlwasser und ein enormer Stromverbrauch – das Google-Rechenzentrum in Kronstorf betrifft die Region nachhaltig. Es braucht jetzt mehr Bürger_innenbeteiligung und eine transparente Gesamtprüfung. Unterschreibe dafür hier: mein.aufstehn.at/petitions/st...

Der Bau des Google Rechenzentrums in Krontsdorf braucht mehr Transparenz und Kontrolle. Denn die Folgen für Wasser, Stromversorgung und Böden sind noch nicht ausreichend geklärt.

I dont envy backend engineers. Everytime I have to setup a ssh connection to a server (the same server, mind you) something is different. Nothing works. Endless config tinkering ensues. But once it works I feel like a fucking magician - or a Matrix Operator 😎

I hate the narrative around #ai; the "annoyance of coding", "people don't enjoy the way of creating music" or art Like wtf why are you so loud with your lazyness? Where is the fun of creating? The process of learning, the gaining experience? Its called development not stopping.

Crash and burn. Sometimes you risk it, catch fire and run it into the wall. Other times your risk will be rewarded greatly. Lets hope for the latter, no matter what presses down on your heart at the moment. #resistanceracing #indiedev #gamedev #metro #racing #crash #psx #y2kstyle #lowpoly #pixelart

Most pilots hang out at Café Stadtpark. It serves as a nice living room for most people who want to get away from the usual rusty metal walls, sit in a rundown room with grimey tapestry and sip on a warm cup of mushroom coffee. #gamedev #indiedev #ps1 #retro #npc #graphics #writing #psx #graphics

I thought my game was dystopian, but what is going on right now feels like its just way worse than what I could have imagined. The hope I want to inspire is about stuff that feels small in the light of the files.

After a lot of thinking, I realised, I already have all the variables for good race gameplay. I just needed to use them differently. Only by designing the UI for the "pitch vs curve = heat" of the craft I can mirror that in code now. So what you see is what you get. #racing #psx #gamedev #indiedev
