Something I think I'll add to all my games going forward as feedback has been good for accessibility. It's a recording of the sound library I'm making in a test project. It has every sound listed as what it is for and you can boost or lower every sound individually! #GameAccessibility #GameDev

Happy #GameAwards my fellow #Gamedev friends
Two button meme

One says "Get inspired"
Second says "Get overwhelming imposter syndrome"
The man says "Me reading about other game devs"

After asking some on discord and no responses it looks like I'm using TOLK again for this project! Wonder if the creator had any idea how long it'd be the main option for indies to add screen reader support...
The "Milking the cow" meme, where a man with tons of buckets approaches an emaciated cow saying "Good Mor-ning sunshine".

But the cow is "tolk at 11 years old" and the man is "Me going to implement Screen reader support for another project."

I just know one day TOLK is gonna stop working and I'm gonna be in so much trouble.

Why must every asset site have the worst search and tagging features? Itch for example doesn't let you use tags AND the search box at the same time. Either or. Like... what? #GameDev #Art #GameArt
Wife and kids with knives behind open door meme.

The man approaching the door is labeled "Me wanting to buy assets"

The wife with a knife is labeled "Awful search functions"
The boy with a knife is labeled "Stolen Assets"
The girl with a knife is labeled "AI slop"

The man can not see the knives as he walks up the path to the house which has a partially opened door. He is only able to see the face of the little girl, with the wife and boy out of sight completely.

The struggle of keeping up to date with other game devs, or even playing other games! #Gamedev #IndieDev #Meme
the "two button" meme. First button says "Get inspired" second says "Get overwhelming Imposter Syndrome" and the sweating man wiping his forehead is "Me reading about other game devs"

I got one of these recently! The amount of times it's already stopped me from messing up timing in the last 2 weeks makes me worried about how often I took medicine too often or not frequently as I could. There are even talking ones! Highly recommend. also don't forget alt text on images!
A orange pill bottle, but the focus is a cap with the text "Time since last opened" and then a small digital stop watch with the words "timer cap" on it. The stop watch goes up when the bottle is closed so the user can see how long ago they last took medication.

A meme I posted on Lemmy (an open source Reddit alternative) awhile ago, and figured I'd post it here as well! #Memes #Memes #funny
The Advice duck meme. The top portion says "You can eat for under under $2 a day if your calories come from mostly oats, flour, and rice. With protein from dried beans, split peas, chickpeas, and peanuts." Bottom portion says "If the above advice is at all relevant to you, the billionaire class is your enemy, always has been, and always be. You need a union"

I'm mostly going to post about game dev and blind accessibility. But also Frejya is the cutest kitten ever and I'm so happy to have her so you all get to see cat pics of her! #Cat #Kitten #Picture
A small tabby kitten with medium long fur around 10 weeks old is asleep in a man's arms with its belly facing the camera like a swaddled baby. You can't see anything of the man besides the arm holding the kitten, and a little bit of his jeans and hoodie as he is sitting down.  The kitten has a draw string of the hoodie in its mouth despite being asleep, as if it fell asleep mid playing with it.
