Last time I was at the Tokyo Game Show, they had a lot of amazing Game Boy Advance games but now they have none. What gives? That attackable creeper was pretty cool though!

Good morning from Busan! I’ll be streaming at Busan Indie Connect #bic2026 on the official Universe Indie channel from the center of the show floor this afternoon and tomorrow. If you see me around stop by and say hi!

It wouldn’t be #BICFest without every night Haeundae Beach Parties.

This #BitSummit was the best yet! Great games and great people. Really appreciated how everyone came together after the show to make the river parties fun and respectful of the area. See you all next year!

Hello #BitSummit! Hope everyone is having a great day. If you’re interested in fonts for games or coming to Seoul for game stuff, get in touch. I’m the guy in the *very* green tweed suit. It matches my pass!

A happy #BitSummit ‘s eve to you all! May your glasses be full, but no so full you fall into the river before the event even begins.

1/ Heading to #BitSummit? After all of the official events, many people go to the river. (See you there?) Here are some ways to respect everyone in the area. 1. Stay off the path so people can walk through easily. 2. Bring a plastic bag so you can take your trash back with you. Contd…

Pixeldeco is a (loosely!) art-deco inspired 7x7 pixel font for retro games and pixel art. It has a good chunk of Latin based characters, Cyrillic, Armenian, Hiragana, and Katakana, plus a few bits and pieces. Available for download on itch! #gamedev #fonts burpyfresh.itch.io/pixeldeco

I made a font into a game, using OTF features to create gameplay. It's janky as all get out, but it was an interesting experiment. I may work on it more over time. #typography #fonts #gamedev burpyfresh.itch.io/typeface-adv...

UFO 50 hits Japan today! This was a pretty huge undertaking given there were several dozen games to localize but the team did an amazing job and the Japanese version looks awesome. Big 💙 to @mossmouth.bsky.social and @perryjon.bsky.social and everyone who worked to make the JP release a reality!

Even after several rounds of revision, I still just managed to ask a large number of work contacts to come chant with me about any issues on our Discord server. <this-is-fine.gif>

#BeaverRocks is underway at DDP in Seoul. Nice to have a game event in the city.

Plain Pixel now has over 20,000 characters! If you're in #gamedev and need a plain multipixel 11pt #pixel #font for games or pixel art, check this out! Chinese & Japanese support is coming along, better South and South East Asian support are on the roadmap.

I just purchased a ticket to a Korean event on a Korean website with a Korean credit card through a third party service where I needed to identify myself and also change the login password and email address. On a Mac. I am now a wizard. Bow before me.

Really like how this one turned out, and I hope it's useful for #Arabic #gamedev. I'm hoping it reads well, I had to take a lot of liberties to fit everything into 11pt and make it reasonably monospaced. Feedback is of course always appreciated! #font

Douglas Vautour @douglasvautour.bsky.social · 22/09/2025

Making Arabic was really interesting. The font should localize properly for other languages that use the script as well! #gamedev #font #ttf

If you’re in #Seoul and interested in #gamedev, come on down to Seoul Indies! It’s a Korean/English bilingual event where we talk about what we’re working on and play games. Details: www.facebook.com/share/19YCQg... (We’re going to migrate from Facebook event links soon!)

#BICFest and a global alcohol exhibition. I may have to move here.

Great to see some familiar faces at #BICFest! @denkiworks.bsky.social Give this one a spin if you’re here!

#BICFest is getting underway. Starting out with the Busan Indie Wave Conference, with talks on games and development. The beach is close, but I can wait until this evening. :) #gamedev #indiedev

Saw this at a Starbucks in Gangnam. AI advertising is the gift/curse that keeps on giving/cursing.

I just found out that the devs of PEAK can talk to players through the stuffed toy Bing Bong that you find on the plane. Has any other game ever done this? This would be amazing in a horror title.

Douglas Vautour @douglasvautour.bsky.social · 03/08/2025

Thai was a fun one to include! Still working on Japanese and Korean tweaks, and will continue working on Chinese and Arabic. Give it a download, and let me know what you think! #font #ttf #arabic #gamedev

I love Incheon Airport. Concourse to taxi (with a bag!) in 16 minutes. Bagless record was 7:10 from T1 to bus. Perhaps a little too enthused about this.

DenkiWorks is killing it with Tanuki Pon’s Summer. Definitely the breakout hit of #bitsummit!
