Okay gang, need help with something. Trying to decide how long to make my Next Fest Demo update. 2 Levels (1 boss) out of 10 total levels in the game 4 Levels (2 bosses) of the 10 total levels in the game. #indiegame #indiedev #bloodspiller

I'm polishing up my Demo for Next Fest next month. Right now the demo is 2 of 10 levels. Should I keep the 2 and polish them up, or also include the next stage (2 more levels) making the demo 4/10 levels. Is that too much? #indiegame #indiedev #godotengine

The player can now offset the blood loss by finding bandages across diff levels. #indiedev #indiegame #bloodspiller

By the way, I'm really grateful to everyone who's been listening to my music in various ways over the past few months. I think the movie gave me a big boost. My music is something I feel complicated about, but which has always been really special to me, and I'm really happy people listen to it.

I just hate feeling lost. For the first time in my live I just feel…helpless. The thing they don’t tell you about unemployment is how bad the depression gets.

Anyone know of any writing, editing, data entry jobs? I'm getting desperate out here.

Desperately trying to get any traction I can on this new YouTube. I want the game studio stuff to be able to grow outside of my streaming channel. If you can, I'd love it if you could check this out, drop a sub, help me be seen by the algo! #indiedev #indiegame #indiegamedev youtu.be/tkE9d0IzII0

I wish I could have just one thing go big. One post, one video, one ANYTHING. So much of being creative for a living feels like playing the lottery with extra steps. Working your way to success feels hopeless now without some 100k YT backing you. I feel like I'm just shouting into the void.

Being so stressed about finding a job has pretty much halted work on my game sadly. I’m really hoping I can get some resolution soon and get this anxiety down. #gamedev #stressed

HackDotSlash @hackdotslash.bsky.social · 06/02/2026

Legit question. How many years of trying to “grow” streaming before I’m the issue? And yes, I’ve tried YouTube, I’ve tried TikTok, it doesn’t bring people in like they say it should. 6 years in and still having under 5 average feels like it’s just…me.

I'm starting my February #SteamNextFest coverage NEXT WEEK! I know y'all are shadow-dropping your #indiegame / #indiegames, demos, & playtests already. So, let me know what they are #indiedev!

Pulled out of Nextfest and decided to aim for the next one. Too many things still up in the air to feel 100% on it. Sucks but that’s life.

I’m so tired of “hope” Everything I hope for seems to end in disappointment and it’s exhausting.

Iron Lung is playing right now in theaters worldwide. It's been one of the greatest privileges of my life to be part of this journey along with Mark and co, and the result is one of the best things I've ever been part of. I hope you all enjoy it!

Thinking of doing a GoFundMe for the game. Mostly to help pay for the music, more sprites, and to cover my rent while I finish the game. I’d only need 3.5k tops, but I’d had very small success with fundraising in the past. I’m hoping having a playable demo will help some but idk. #gamedev

Thanks for trying it! I’ll make a note of that and work on getting things more consistent!

I hate that so much of my situation is my own failings.
