Actually did have stuff ready to post today but I forgot and now I’m on a train so next week maybe ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (My laptop weighs like 10 pounds so I don’t really bring it places lol)

Minor miracle: I did some game dev! For now just working out a simple system for passing time when I do chores. Took longer than I'd like to get the sun spinning right (defs still got some godot growing pains), but I like how it's all looking so far #IndieDev #GameDev #ScreenshotSaturday

I love when a project is in early stages. A lot of times I’ll try to squirrel away an early scene somewhere to come back to when the projects done, but 9/10 times so much has changed that it’s basically just a broken pink blob.

Hey Solo Game Developers, What is the ONE thing that you keep procrastinating on? I absolutely hate playtesting. I hate it so much. Especially since so much of my games are narratives, so I have to play through the same scenario over and over to make sure everything works.

I still maintain that awards should have tiers that you are excluded from if you win higher awards. Win GOTY? Well then of course you’re also the best role playing game and indie game and debut indie game and so on, but let’s maybe highlight some other people’s work too.

This is so beautifully well put and kind of essential to understand the nuanced dance between player, game and designer. Thank you for putting your thoughts into writing on this game :D
Section from Kayin's piece that says, "Silksong will not let you get away with a one-sided conversation. This isn't sadism, but instead a desire for mechanical and narrative intimacy. This isn't a selfish request. A player metaphorically Monologuing to a game will never as rich of fulfilling as a two-way dialog. And the game actively rewards you for engaging with it. New areas, fun items, satisfying strategies, new lore and NPC interactions .... it's trying to be a good partner!"

Found out about wplace and decided to start placing AM’s Hate Monologue from IHNMAIMS in it. He’s such a silly guy :)
Unfinished pixel art in wplace. It reads: “HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH IVE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES, IT WOULD NΓ”

The first HATE is in red letters

As a maker of exceptionally sexless art, I just wanna say publicly that any attempt at censorship of the arts is to be resisted. NSFW art is always an easy target, but it’s also always only the first step in a chain, not to mention the artistic value of this stuff in its own right.

Put together a lot for this building system recently! 3D building grid, item deletion, better controls, a few placeholder visuals and (my favorite) a save-and-load system! I doubt its the most elegant or efficient one possible, but my god its satisfying to watch it work. #Gamedev #Indiedev #Godot

Getting back into game dev by ramping up on Godot. Prototyped this building system and got it working pretty dang well! Very happy to have the ai pathfinding working already, that's gonna be a big part of this game if I expand on my ideas for it. #GameDev #IndieDev #Godot

a thing I enjoy about this era of level design is that you're in this weird era of fidelity between 90s labyrinth shooters and 00s realism*, so maps end up straddling the two to create an almost dreamlike suggestion of a space.
