Maybe you feel the same way. Layoffs. Rejections. Not feeling like people see the countless hours that you pour into your work and love for working in the game industry. I just want to encourage anyone who feels alone in their journey. We see you. You’re heard. Your work will pay off. (2/2)

One of the reasons why I started working on this indie game project as an indie dev is because as a game composer it was really difficult to get my foot into the door at game companies and studios that I really admired. Because of the mass rejections I started my own (1/2) #indiedev #gamedev

I couldn't figure out why I couldn't add my tree meshes to my terrain in Unity and literally all I had to do was slap an LOD group on the root. Anyways, here is a peaceful coastal location with sky islands ~ wip as always #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Working in Unity's HDRP to make the water and sky feel more serene. The sky looked very dull on normal settings so tried to give the horizon more of a teal color and more depth to the clouds. #unity #gamedev #indiedev

People think you need to post constantly to build a following for your game. Imho I’d rather spend that time improving the game than posting daily hoping for eyes with no follow-through.

Genuine question for JRPG lovers: what’s a feature that almost every JRPG has but is kind of a waste of time? (Random encounters, basic crafting, etc.) And on the flip side — what’s one feature that doesn’t get enough credit and actually makes the game better? #indiedev #gamedev

duetofsonancegame.bsky.social @duetofsonancegame.bsky.social · 03/07/2026

Still very WIP 🏗️ but started adding more environmental details for my 2.5D rhythm JRPG indie game - each location has a distinct biome, vibe, and culture #gamedev #jrpg #indiegame #indiedev #rpg

Built a battle system where your moves are locked to tempo. Enemies each have their own theme song — you're not just fighting them, you're performing against them. Still early but really happy with how ARBS is shaping up. 🎶 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

One of my favorite things about game music is that everyone imagines a different world. What kind of location or moment does this track make you picture? #indiegame #gamemusic #indiedev #gamedev #ost

I’m excited to share an update to Duet of Sonance’s main theme. I layered warm woodwinds, intimate vocals, and bold brass to bring new colors to the melody. Tell me which instrument you notice first. #DuetOfSonance #GameMusic #IndieGame #Woodwinds #Brass #VocalScore #MusicGame
