I didn't know that Google, in collusion with Unity, was creating a monster that's killing indie developers. If my tools are useless since you're promoting generative AI, I won't put any of my tools on the Unity Asset Store #IndieDev #GameDev #Unity3D

I just created a bundle which is set to launch in two days that helps speed up your prototype production. All my assets are priced at $10.99, which saves you 62% #GameDev #IndieDev #ItchIo

Right now, I'm noticing that a lot of people are interested in my products especially my tools for game dev, even though I've scaled back my promotion of them #GameDev #IndieDev #DevTool #ItchIo

I'm on the fence about releasing my tool to make level design in Unity easier. Well, my friend Godot developers, you'll see my tools available on Godot soon. #GameDev #IndieDev #Unity3D #IA

To make an excellent card game, you need to focus a lot on balancing. And to help you focus on that, I've created the Unity Card Game Toolkit for you. diane-claus.itch.io/cardgametool... #GameDev #CardGame #IndieDev #BoardGame

A new argument from bros AI “Yes, we have the right to use generative AI in our games because AAA studios do it.” You know I'm boycotting Level-5 and other AAA studios for their use of generative AI #AI #GameDev #AAA

I've also noticed that a lot of vibe coder don't playtest their games. Sure, the game is functional, but it has a lot of game design issues, as in this example

Right now, I’m adding effects for the cards, including the attack effect, which I’ve already implemented. I’ve even considered adding a feature to create enemies. For now, there’s only one, but it’s a good start! ⏬ #GameDev #IndieDev #CardGame #BoardGame

However, since I couldn't separate the downloads for the two versions, I had to create two separate projects for each available version. You can find the available versions here: diane-claus.itch.io/cardgametool... #GameDev #IndieDev #Unity

All I see is a paper airplane sending the link to the Unity Card Game Toolkit to Spider-Man, and Spider-Man approves the tool because he wants to create a card game based on the franchise #gamedev #indiedev #gaming #gamingnews #spiderman
