I’ve always struggled with finishing projects, in the first half of this year I abandoned 11 games. I started going to therapy to work through burnout and understand my process better. This post by @mossmouth.bsky.social was also huge makegames.tumblr.com/post/1136623... ⬇️

Finishing a Game
As I work towards completing my own game, I've been thinking a lot about finishing projects in general. I've noticed that there are a lot of talented developers out there that have trouble finishing.....

The NPCs from 'Shovel Knight Dig: Wicked Wishes' DLC send you on a variety of side quests. We added several portraits so players can keep proper track of them all. It's been quite fun to make official renditions of these beloved characters (and some newcomers to the cast too!). #pixelart

I present you the Guild Hall! By far the most demanding piece of BG art from 'Shovel Knight Dig: Wicked Wishes'. I'm super glad to be able to share this after so long. #pixelart

My short piano interpretation of the Overworld theme in Shovel Knight Dig. (Not new, I posted it on the other site about 2 yrs ago). I've heard it for years working on the game, but I still felt like playing it. Music composed by Jake Kaufman.

The changes to blocking might be the final straw for many. Here are some starter packs to help those moving over! 👇 Indie Devs & Artists – go.bsky.app/98Vcxfm Members from @thegig.bsky.social – go.bsky.app/UUkuMMg Portuguese Games Industry – go.bsky.app/JhcMTM8 Wholesome Games – go.bsky.app/K8FkqJM
A quote post from the Bluesky account on X with the text "welcome, new bluesky users" and with a link to download the app. The post is a quote of the Engineering team at X where they announce that the block function is changing to be basically useless going forward.
