Definitely avoid buying stuff from @ibuypowerpc.bsky.social They recently mis-shipped some RMA-requested RAM to the wrong address and are essentially making me deal with the fallout instead of resolving it quickly Love having a broken PC for 2+ months lol #indiedev #indiegamedev #gamedev

Game dev take: Parallax is the highest impact / lowest effort visual trick in 2D. Overrated or essential? wishlist link in the comments👇

One of my favorite parts of working on Don't Die Collect Loot is making the unique items. There's nothing wrong with making them silly, overpowered, or both! The only thing that matters is that they're weird and fun to use. #gamedev #pixelart #shortgamesfestival #arpg

I've just added the 100th sound effect to this project. #NESdev 20 items, 7 curses. 45k lines of code. 🫠 (Micro Mages was 22k) Sorry for the scope creep delays, I think this has turned into a fine game, now on to more QoL additions and balancing... :) -Julius
