Hey folks! If you're using Blender, tell me your specs. My future PC will be 6-core, 16GB RAM and 8GB VRAM. Will this suffice for a comfortable use? #gamedev #indiedev #blender

The new Ocarina of Time remake seems very hit or miss. Some images look like the Unreal Engine demos seen on YouTube other scenes look great. I'm sure it plays great, but visually I expected something more spectacular with an atmosphere. #zelda #nintendoswitch

Went to see "The Dog Stars", it wasn't good. It was somehow entertaining but I would not recommend it. It borrows from a lot of films like "28 Days Later" and "The Road" but doesn't get dramatic enough or develops any of the characters enough. Not really a thriller or a proper slow burn classic.

Disco Elysium. Very strange vibe in the intro and unconventional controls (for me). Since this was on a modded PS4, I didn't bother to continue.

I joked on Reddit that someone should make a cooking roguelike. One of my close friends, who owned a bakery in Barcelona, passed away in 2024. I imagined a game featuring him but I can't come up with gameplay. Something like Isaac but gathering ingredients? What do you think? #gamedev #indiedev

An older idea was to borrow Tarzan (PS1) with faster gameplay from DKC. I'd base it in Vietnam during the war and feature both jungle and battlefield areas. The animals living there are fascinating. It would be 2.5d with modern graphics. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Basically Pepsi Man but you're an Eastern European man running away from hazards. There would be a rear view mirror kind of thing and fast-paced action, with very tight controls. The soundtrack would be speed metal but played on traditional slavic instruments like the balalaika. #gamedev #indiedev

I was playing Kirby and the Forgotten Land and thought Wario Land needs the same kind of treatment and it would be glorious! A proper game made by Nintendo and not a third party like the GC, Wii and DS games. #nintendo #warioland #videogame #gameboy

Don't know whether to watch Obsession or not. I don't really like horror but I'm watching it from time to time to see if anything clicks with me. Backrooms was good. Longlegs and Black Phone were bad. #films #horrorfilm #horror

Several of my stories happen in 'toy view'. It's a perspective that fascinates me. Has anyone played It Takes Two? I feel like it could already have all the puzzles that I would have implemented. #gamedev

There's several documentaries about super successful games that are in the 1% of all indie games. This one made 800k€ just on PC as a solo dev game. I think we should talk more about failure and understand why it happens. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Kinda rushed but I rly wanted to get something out for today specifically so here's some wallpapers based on SM64's cartridge art :3
[RGB] Wallpaper based on Super Mario 64's cartridge art. It shows Mario leaping over a hill while being chased down by Bowser, who is breathing fire. Around them both is a cavalcade of enemies: a Whomp, some Bob-Ombs, a Koopa Troopa, a Boo and some Goombas. There are scaled down versions of some landmarks from the game, including a mountain, a pyramid and the Mushroom Castle.

Constance surprised me. It's a metroidvania like Hollow Knight. Very fun gameplay and it has pleasant graphics. When it was announced I thought it would be borrowing from Celeste, but I was wrong. It's a different kind of game with its own flavour. @constancegame.bsky.social #indiedev #indiegame

I have no budget to hire anyone except myself, so I thought that I could use copyright-free classical music recordings in the game. One of my favourite composers is Tchaikovsky and he has enough tunes to set the mood. #gamedev #indiedev www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uofv...

The easiest game I could make is a 2d platformer about the little Korean girl but the original story doesn't match the visual tone. Could I release a cozy game with uncomfortable plot? The original story is very sad, but I like very intense stories. #gamedev #indiedev

I saw and enjoyed The Backrooms (2026). My buddy was sighing during the whole thing because he didn't understand. I made my own theories about things and it's one of the more fun aspects of it. I also watched the series before the film. The film can be watched alone. #film #films #backrooms #cine

New game from the creator of Hypogea. Seems to have the same great inter-generational PS2 atmosphere, but from the movement I'd wish the character had more weight. In the previous game the staff controls the pace, which pleases me. It's a complaint I have with many other games.

Aside from game stories, I also started writing the premise for a horror film based on local folklore. I had abandoned the idea for a few months, until I suddenly came up with the main structure. It started as a joke with a friend. The meme must live on. #film #horror #terror #cinema #cinephile

I'm a very inexperienced player, so reaching this point after a long half an hour, and no accesibility options, felt quite amazing. After some medication change, I feel my brain is now wired for 'repeat without frustrations' which is what this game and many others need. #celeste #indiegame #indie

Mario enters the castle to rescue Peach. He gets stuck in a loop, repeating levels, trapped forever. Finally at the centre of the castle, a soft breeze welcomes him. He feels the touch of a lady's hand on his hair. But only an old statue remains above a grave. "Here lies Peach" #supermario #nintendo

I wrote a story for a short 2d action platformer with puzzle elements inspired by "Terminator 2D: No Fate" (similar to Contra 3). The focus is on story and characters. This one made me sad. The protagonist is a very strong woman with her own particular kryptonite. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
