I enjoyed this one! Deductive mystery game, it had such a near-future European feel to it that I don't think a lot of games have.

Yes, we have been listing tons of verbs and tried to match them together! It's a good technique, it's how I got to Mind Diver, which I'm happy with. And yeah, the whole world is actually inside a giant mycelium network. Maybe it thrums! Thrumming is cool! I'm sure we'll find a name... Someday 🫠

Trying to name an unannounced survival game set in a mythological wilderness deep underground. Mushrooms are recurring motif. We really liked "Mycelia", but a relatively popular board game is already using it. So now we're on "Mycora", which is less legible, I feel. So... still looking. it's tough.

Go play our new kart racing game Mind Driver! 😁 Thanks for the sweet review from AGH. It's lovely to see the game travelling around the narrative corners of the web and plucking some heart strings <3

Paint the desert green in our snail-incremental game. We just released a demo: store.steampowered.com/app/4736890/... Trailer: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsh1... after 4 years on big game, it's SO fun to work on something so small and silly (I'm sneaking in some parodying of startup culture too)

Something really amazing happened! Our newest game (store.steampowered.com/app/4362170/...) got a hand-made mascot! It's made by @feyfluffyfriends.bsky.social from our Discord. Absolutely flabbergasted that someone would make something like this based on our little snail game 😳 #gamedev

really nice. what determines the lighting/coloring of each tile? Are they receiving light from the world, or do they have some variables that control that?

Victor Breum (REVIEW MIND DIVER) @breum.bsky.social · 01/04/2026
Sounds nice, fun way to get a bunch of dynamic ambience and nice feedback. Looking forward to playing this! Are you running it using some specific programming patterns? We tried doing ECS but ended up having some requirements that made ECS impossible.

Victor Breum (REVIEW MIND DIVER) @breum.bsky.social · 01/04/2026
Totally. Are you using it for challenges or just for aesthetics? We're using it for many different things, so being able quickly balance the system is really important. (Tracked down the game itself, and Rhythm Doggo looks amazing, btw)

Cellular automation has been such a fascinating thing to incorporate in my game It's impossible to fully understand the behavior of a configuration because the massive possibility space, but at the same time very viable to develop a "feel" for how to find a configuration with a specific look

Oh! We're also working on a cellular automata game right now! Super fascinating design space. Extreeeeeme emergence. Still learning how to work with it in nice ways.

Also, about the credits: We made sure to credit every single person who worked on Mind Diver. This included all services, all short-stint freelancers, all interns, even people we had a bad experience with. Work is work, and needs to be credited.

Unionize all the way, and unions should work to ensure royalties for all devs. Even better, if you get the chance, create or join a worker co-op, and make it so you don't have to negotiate with any bosses. Negotiate with your fellow workers about the right way to do things instead. #gamedev

We are seriously looking into an alternative place to build a community instead of Discord. Things we want: - Protocol-based, so it's flexible to leave - Super simple to join for users - Community-oriented. Chat rooms, image sharing. Not finding any good ones. Anyone else had any luck? #gamedev

Played the demo of this a while ago, and it is excellent. Highest bar of deduction puzzle quality. Tim knows the genre of detective games intimately, and Ratline shows that knowledge off in a very compelling setting. In this day and age, who is not itching to help get rid of some nazis?

for so long I was stuck in approaching game design as a processs of invention. switching to a process of exploration and discovery instead has been one of the biggest improvement to my design abilities ever. and also, it's just so much more fun. I'm having more fun with my work than ever.

so this question has come up in conversation recently: obviously, bluesky has features that allow you to disable interactions like replies and quote posts. but is doing so contrary to the spirit of social media? is it antisocial behavior? maybe even unethical? interested to hear everyone's thoughts
