In an era where ADHD and neurodiversity is a thing, it still baffles me how the education system remains bullshit. People with high potential getting denied degrees and entry level jobs because education focuses on grades rather than applicable skills. This is just bullshit.

Took me a bit, but I've reached Chapter 5 of Deltarune. It's amazing to see how the game, design and art evolves with chapters. But I'm getting more and more into it, and definitely getting a similar warm feeling as Undertale.

I keep seeing arguments for games being expensive due to hyper realistic expectations for art, or simply lots of art. What I don’t see is the actual most costly reason: Indecision Iteration is good, but the yearly rebuilding of entire characters, storylines, and levels, is the most expensive thing

That's it. Windows is pissing me off. There are still some apps and tools that I need for it, but I'm going to try and focus on using only Fedora from now on. I'll have to get used to it, but the speed gain is already noticeable. I look forward to it becoming more and more mainstream 💪

I need to repopulate this account. I've been somewhat around on other places but, I need a place to talk about game dev, so... Maybe you'll see some form of that here. So, expect: - Indie Game Dev - Burnout - Game industry rants - Maybe some hope - Français See you hopefully soon ✨

WHITE WEEK NOW HAS A STEAM PAGE!!! 🌲👩‍🚀 A 2D RPG blending cottagecore and lovecraftian horror where every interaction is a minigame! Wishlist it now! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #rpg #madewithgamemaker

Screenshot of the world view of White Week with a beautiful view of a sunny path in the forest. Roland, the young protagonist is on the path and is looking at an abandoned cabin. It has a little dreamy vibe.

Screenshot of a scene where the two main characters, Roland and Yuna, are talking about a strange portal that has opened in a pretty meadow. Roland looks curiously at the portal as he asks "Do you know what this is then?"

Screenshot of a fight scene. It's a turned based combat where Yuna is facing a strange geometrical shaped creature. It has no face. The whole scene is dark and the environnement around them is starting to get corrupted with weird checkered patterns.

Screenshot of a minigame with a gameboy-ish aesthetic. Roland is facing a strange wolf attacking him with his terrible stare.

Seed by Seed | Baladins coming on Consoles! @seedbyseedgames.bsky.social · 16/01/2026

Hi there, game industry and friends, This is our turn to do the "square news bad news" thing. Sadly, our studio has been affected by the crisis like everyone else. You can ask questions in thread, we'll try our best to answer. Cheers & take care ❤️

Hi everyone, long time no see.
The global video game economy was bad in 2024, and it got worse in 2025. We had hoped that it wouldn't affect us, but it did. 2025 has been a rough year for us.
Seed by Seed is experiencing significant financial difficulties, and we have to pause our creative activities. We're not closing the studio, but we had to let go most of our employees (understand: we fired ourselves) and we'll now focus on contract work to stabilize our company. Seed by Seed still exists with a few persons that will maintain our games as much as they possibly can. Nevertheless, Baladins will soon be released on consoles, and more is to come for Jump the Track.
The Seed by Seed team sends lots of love to everyone who has helped us on our creative journey so far. You can support us by buying and playing our games, spreading the word, and leaving good reviews on Steam. All efforts will help us return to creating our own weird adventures.
The Seed by Seed Team

This year is going to be tough for a lot of reasons. I'm learning a new way to work, a way that should let me do what I love and earn me some freedom to then enjoy time with my true family, and create for the sake of creating.

Everyday I now fight myself to regain that self trust in an industry and society that will find every possible way to push me down, and where I still have to get back up and continue. It's exhausting... and I might be crying high up from my privilege... But I'm so tired...

Woodkid Says Hideo Kojima Changed 'Death Stranding 2' Because It Wasn't 'Polarizing'

Keep thinking about this term "pre-digested" that Kojima used to describe art that's instantly gratifying. And how it's better when people grow to love something instead. I've gravitated, as player and designer, toward the latter, but that term "pre-digested" is new and feels very strong.

And he said, "If everyone likes it, it means it's mainstream. It means it's conventional. It means it's already pre-digested for people to like it. And I don't want that. I want people to end up liking things they didn't like when they first encountered it, because that's where you really end up loving something."

🌟 Hi! We are Tris, Loan and Solenn from Pas Croyable Production: an indie game studio focused on short productions made in small team. Above all, we're looking to create tiny, accessible and impactful games always inspired by childlike wonder! 🦉 We are working on our first game Spiriki: Tiny Island

The team of Pas Croyable Production. We are drawn with a multi-colored crayon effect, just like the one we used when we were kids. The three of us are all walking to the left. Tris, our game designer and programmer; Loan our 2D artist and animator, Solenn our environment and tech artist. There are tiny scribbles all around us

This slide presents our first game Spriki: Tiny Island.
There is the game pitch, three rough sprites of our wind spirit and a screenshot of how the game is looking at the moment. A magical owl surrounded by a very green island with a few 3D props on it : a direction sign, a lamp, a magical book, a broken arch and a floating magical altar.

I don't know if the meds are affecting me and changing how my brain reacts and if ADHD was actually shielding me from all this anxiety. Or... If it actually uncovered what my problem really is. I'm tired 😩

I wonder if I actually burned out but not violently. What should be usual work now feels like life threatening. What used to make me excited now bores me faster. I now consider most of my work not up to the level I used to thrive in. I used to want to fail to learn, but now failure means death.

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."
