just finished Crow Country last night. as someone who usually steers clear of “horror” games due to my spooking easily, I’m really glad I tried it as it is a.) not that spooky and b.) completely floored me with its ending message.

just got back from like 10 days in Spain and it’s a bummer not being able to just walk or take public transit everywhere, America really is a country where cars are mandatory for any decent standard of living outside of major cities.

never stops feeling bad to find out a game studio you've admired has switched gears to going all in on using gen AI for future production... despite their success being built on the backs of games that didn't do that...

War as a moral metaphor is limited, limiting, and dangerous. By reducing the choices of action to “a war against” whatever-it-is, you divide the world into Me or Us (good) and Them or It (bad) and reduce the ethical complexity and moral richness of our life to Yes/No, On/Off.

How did they make multiplayer mode for Slay The Spire 2 the objective Best Way to play the game? They did it on their first try, how did they do this… this is not a hypothetical, I need factual answers.

I loved every game that Bluepoint Games touched, the Demon’s Souls remake was and still is a visual masterpiece. It is a generational blunder on PlayStation’s part to shut down one of the best studios they ever had.

Just got my backer Steam key! It’s crazy to think of how long I’ve waited for this game, I remember waiting for the game’s early art and music concepts to drop on Roach Games’ Instagram way back in 2019 when I still had an account. I’m very excited for Garbage Day tomorrow! 🗑️🪳🫧🎻🧥🐀

Gabe Cube is real! Also, the Steam Frame existing gives me hope for a future when Meta no longer dominates VR, this space can only improve by having competent competitors appear, which Valve certainly is.

It's a hectic week for me wrt Steam Next Fest but nothing could keep me from the Goodnight Universe demo. Before Your Eyes was amazing in ways that confound, and the next game from the devs who made it feels very much like a spiritual successor, check it out! store.steampowered.com/app/4012220/...

Goodnight Universe Demo on Steam

This demo is around 20 minutes long, featuring a handful of scenes from early in the game. As you play as Isaac, you’ll learn what makes you special, how to conceal that special side from your family,...

Started Hades II this week after patiently awaiting its 1.0 launch. As expected, the roguelike gameplay is awesome and a true upgrade over the first game, but I'm loving the writing most of all.

I had a lot of fun this week working on my game concept Bamboo Dog (竹の犬) for the #FallingBlockJam. Unfortunately, I ran out of time due to some personal stuff this week so it isn't at all playable or feature complete, but you can check it out here anyways: jordansmithsgames.itch.io/take-no-inu 🫱💥🎍

My personal GOTY for 2024 is hitting the Switch! A lot of the games on here are worth the $25 alone (looking at you, Mortol, Rock On! Island, and Porgy...) Seriously, play this game if you haven't already, it's kind of impossible to not fall in love with at least a few of the games in here.

Super inspiring to see Godot almost eclipsing Unity for most used game engine for #GMTKJam! I'd be surprised if it didn't surpass it in 2026.

I made a game with some friends for this year's #GMTKJam! It's called Cyclus, and it's about drawing loops to navigate through puzzly circular mazes, inspired by Nintendo DS games. 🖊️♾️: jordansmithsgames.itch.io/cyclus #gmtk #gmtk25 #godot #gamedev #indiedev

Yes, @doublefine.com’s PsychOdyssey is amazing and wonderful and deserves all the praise. Please go watch it if you are at all interested in how the sausage is made for video games, it’s free on YouTube. But goddamn, the soundtrack by @orangedrinkmusic.bsky.social slaps pretty hard on its own.

indie dev is interesting because you have to make something for yourself, something laser targeted at your inner sicko, because trying to do it for anyone else will hollow you out, and then when it's done you have to turn around and lie to everyone that it was actually for them all along

Been floundering a bit in my game projects recently, so I'm pretty happy I stumbled upon @mossmouth.bsky.social's excellent articles of advice on how to finish games. I think both of them are good reads, even if you feel pretty experienced at shipping (I don't, lol).

Just finished TUNIC, found all the pages and everything, thoroughly enjoyed. I haven't spent that much time scribbling notes on paper to figure out puzzles since ANIMAL WELL. No wonder that game has an easter egg for this one, very similar vibe in the late game. Also the music SLAPS
