This was absurdly hard, had to leave out so many I thought were shoo-ins.

Last year, miHoYo copied my puzzle game Ouros in Zenless Zone Zero. Because they are a recognized, billion-dollar studio and my game isn't well known, some people are now assuming that their version is the original, and mine is the clone. I hope this video clears that up.

I didn't know about the "Targ" and "Spectar" arcades until I saw Speglar compared with them in this writeup: arcadeheroes.com/2025/07/24/i... Between the name similarities and the maze/grid shooter setup it looks like I've made an unintentional homage!

Now with more juice and more importantly in a doom metal themed game, music! Some of the animations sync up with the beat, and a lead guitar gets added dynamically when you’re doing well. #indiedev #godot #doommetal

One of my goals for my block puzzler was to allow a very high APM for skilled players. Dialing the action delay down to almost nothing for my attract mode CPU makes me think I may have succeeded

Interesting and inspiring read! I especially like the tidbits about how little mechanics and other touches came about (LocalThunk hated the iconic flame effect when it was suggested but realized it _had_ to be in there once tested). The parts about stress and its effects are pretty sobering as well
