Time is rare these days, but I snuck in a short and fun interview with 80 Level all about Project Shadowglass' pixerly style. There's even some old prototype footage showing how the look evolved over the years! 👀 80.lv/articles/int...

Shadowglass just passed 300K Steam wishlists today, which is... absolutely insane 😳 I still wake up everyday shocked that so many of you are as excited about this game as I am. I can't thank you all enough 💙

The amount of passion and work artists put into the all those details that no longer matter. This is straight up vandalism.

I completely agree! This project wasn’t only born from passion, but necessity. I just want the original thief back and seems like we’ll never get it otherwise!

2025 was the year I started a project I’ve dreamt about my whole life. Thank you all for believing in this with me, and to an exciting year ahead for Project Shadowglass 🎉💙

Added PBR surface features (roughness, AO, etc) to Shadowglass’ rendering 😍 Will probably tone it down so it doesn’t kill the retro vibes, but fun to see in action!

Project Shadowglass just passed 100K wishlists in its first 4 weeks on Steam. I don't even know what to say... (but I'll figure it out because you all deserve a proper thank you 💙😭) store.steampowered.com/app/3970690/... #indiegame

Dominick John @dominickjohn.bsky.social · 20/10/2025
Last night the rendering system for Shadowglass got a ~150fps(!!!) performance gain at no cost, and all because @godotengine.org lets us work with its source code 😭

Dominick John @dominickjohn.bsky.social · 07/10/2025
THANK YOU all for 50k(!?!?) Steam wishlists 💙💙💙. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a metric ton of pixels to push for you 😍

2199 jam entries, and my little story game “omw home” ranked 12th overall?? 😱 Ratings were from fellow jammers only, so I’m shocked and honored to be on that first page of incredible games!! ❤️ #indiegamdev #gamejam itch.io/jam/brackeys...

As a game dev, I know I should be all things PC... but honestly consoles have the strengths of being so much more simple to use, which means less in the way of you and the game, and having a standardized spec sheet devs can directly optimize for everyone. Also couches, man. #indiegamedev

Dominick John @dominickjohn.bsky.social · 26/02/2025
Whew, made a game from scratch in 4 days! The jam's theme was "Nothing can go wrong". My experiment was having environmental interactions having an effect on narrative. It's browser (and on a phone) playable if you care to check it out 😊 dominickjohn.itch.io/omw-home #indiegamedev #indiegames

Later start than I’d like for Brackeys Game jam, but got a full idea and basic controls down! Making it mostly a mouse / touch controlled game as that’s how i assume most people will be playing these in browser or on a device.

sadly no it was for an unreleased project, but maybe it's time to dust it off!
