FIREWALL — a Yoshi's Cookie-style puzzler where you clear viruses off a network. New homebrew for the Super Nintendo. Originally a high school Unity project. colpanic.itch.io/firewall-snes #SNES #homebrew #gamedev #retrogaming #SNESdev

Hey! I noticed we're doing similar work, just a generation apart. I'm working on getting GBA games running at more of a SNES level. Not sure if it interests you, but it might be cool to talk shop.

I was feeling flashy, so I did another #Godot port of a Flash classic - Stinkoman 20X6. colpanic.itch.io/stinkoman-20X6 Reimplemented the first two stages as a little microdemo, but plenty of potential for more!

Created a randomizer for Super Mario All-Stars + SMW that shuffles levels from all 5 games into the world map for SMB3. colpanic.itch.io/super-mario-... Coins, lives, score etc persist between games, making it feel like one complete experience. #ROMHack #Retrogaming #SNES #Mario #SuperMarioWorld

Made another push on this Blasterball 2 reimplementation to get it closer to the original - title screen, bonus stages, saving progress and more: colpanic.itch.io/blasterball-... Still needs bosses and an art pass but I'm getting really close now. #IndieDev #GameDev

Also if you didn't see, I did Population: Tire yesterday. Even works on mobile! colpanic.itch.io/population-t...

It's Strong Bad's RhinoFeeder! For some reason. colpanic.itch.io/rhinofeeder Another Flash conversion to Godot of the great(?) game by Videlectrix. #GameDev #IndieDev #GameRelease

@cybershell.bsky.social Bought this t-shirt shockingly recently at a Microsoft store in NYC. Wonder if they found new old stock somewhere, or something like that

As an Interface Weirdo I always gotta give it to Bryce3D for chunky, inscrutable interfaces.

I finished compiling my #Godot tech demos into one complete project and uploaded it to my itch - introducing 7 Days of Godot! Watch a lapsed Unity dev come to grips with a new editor daily. Each day is a tech demo microproject. colpanic.itch.io/7-days-of-go... #GameDev #IndieDev #GameRelease

Today's #Godot practice is very silly. Trying different methods of destruction physics in a Mario-like 2D platformer - rigidbody debris or Worms-style circular cutouts. 2006 Newgrounds is gonna love it. #IndieDev #Gamedev

I tried a few #Godot Terrain generator plugins but nothing quite hits the iterative joy of Bryce. I wonder how hard it would be to just grab a bunch of existing noise and texture functions and glue them together in a "procedural, textured terrain in 5 minutes" plugin. Fun to roll a ball in though!

ColonelPanic @colonelpanic00.bsky.social · 14/01/2026

Learning that #Godot has built in noise textures, noise generators, sky environment generation etc. has me pumped up to mess with some weird Bryce3D-esque environment generation in real time. I hope I'm allowed to rip the textures from Bryce and reuse them... #IndieDev #GameDev

#Godot practice again - I have the beginnings of a windowing system. Windows are draggable, resizable and completely local. Next up - a compositor to handle window focus, alt+tab behavior, etc. I wonder if this all already exists as some plugin somewhere. #GameDev #IndieDev

More #Godot practice, teaching myself Godot's UI and canvas. This is very silly. #GameDev #IndieDev

Dug up a puzzle game project called Firewall I built in Unity quite a long time ago. I really ought to fix this up and put it on my itch.io, it's totally playable. #IndieGame #IndieDev #GameDev #Unity #Madewithunity

A couple months ago I found out that Plants vs Zombies had an accidental PowerPC Mac port in one release - but with a huge timing bug. I really wanted to play it on my iBook G4 so I ended up patching the bug myself. #Retrocomputing #Romhack

Plus, that old phone had some killer gaming on it. Wonder if this build of Tetris is the same as the one on the clickwheel iPods? #retro #retrogames #retrogaming #dumbphone #interfacefriction

Found an old cell phone in a drawer - still held a charge! Shot some sick VGA mallcore pics with it yesterday. Something about the fluorescence, fuzzy resolution and my shaky photography skills makes it a bit headache-inducing tho. #retro #liminal #liminalspaces #liminalplaces #interfacefriction

Here's when I spent a few hours learning Blender to try and recreate the Bryce look, but in five minutes managed to make the Bryce equivalent, and it was so much better it hurt. It was a bit demoralizing honestly! I'll try again someday. #3D #Blender #b3d #retro #LowPoly

Had a Bryce3D phase a few months back. Making renders with it was really quick and fun in a way that tickled my brain just right. One of these days I need to get back into learning Blender so I can recreate "The Look". #3DArt #3DRendering #CGI #LowPoly #RetroCGI #DigitalArt #Blender #b3d
