Lots of work to do but just actually opening aseprite and getting a feel for the program is a massive win. Nice thing about pumpkins is they're bumpy organic shapes so you can't tell I have zero idea how to draw contour lines or understand lighting 🤣 #pixelart

I'm going to draw pixel art pumpkins every day until I don't suck anymore 🎃 I believe that's the trick. Because you can practice shading and form and all the things that matter because its a bumpy little guy. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IjN...

This weekend's progress: flocks of sheep and flocks of seagulls. The orca pod will be a cakewalk after these two. Going to have to start building out unit tests soon as I now have over a dozen steering behaviors to maintain. The orca pod will probably add a handful more. #gamedev #godot #indiedev

Just a reminder to be kind to one another out there. There are a lot of great people working in and around the video game space, including retro game coverage & development, that are going through their own life struggles even as they keep the scene alive. We toil together. #gamedev #indiegamedev

How about some type of cryptographic voting system that uses atproto? You can vote but no one knows who you voted for. Is it possible via one of those newfangled cryptographic schemes?

Can I consider watching 5 year old unreal engine courses on making horror games as "being productive", if I really want to be a gamedev one day? 🤔

I wonder do younger kids love pixel art as much as millennials? Is it inherently cool looking or does the nostalgia give it special meaning to us? 🤔

The full walk cycle! I'm rather proud of how this turned out. Something about the strutting walk just screamed "birb head bob" to me. #pixelart #animation #gamedev

Turns out making a tree move is… a lot of tiny movements. 🌳 Built by hand. Moved frame by frame. 🎞️ And yes, it took forever. 😅 #SouthOfMidnight #CompulsionGames #GameDev #IndieStudio #StopMotion #BehindTheScenes #ClydeHenry

Been usin' #crocotile3d to set up my scenes and... yeah, I think I'll be using it for the rest of the game. The placement of the tiles is SO easy with this program... arguably, the only hard part is all the sprites I have to draw haha. ^.^' #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

Should I start the day with gamedev, or end the day with gamedev? 🤔 Been having trouble building up the momentum I need to really get going.

I think dual booting linux and windows is hurting my gamedev productivity. That extra minute to reboot introduces so much friction to the context switch...

How is it I have the motivation to sit and learn any coding task required of me... but I can't commit to working on art everyday? Maybe there really is a difference between artistic and technical minded people? I even tried my normal tech brained techniques like making flashcards but for art skills

i've been wondering... are ssh ports open to the internet completely safe so long as you only allow key auth? or are they still a potential attack vector, even then?

Does #ATProto have the power to create something like reddit, but where the userbase isn't sociopathic mean people? I was thinking at least have like 2 tabs, angels/devils, where you can filter out the dark triad posters.

Are all the anti AI artists going to swear off using code created by AI? Especially since it's such a strong trend in gameDev. Are you going to work for a gamedev who used AI to implement huge chunks of the game functionality? Would you protest if some investment banker got replaced by AI?

Steve Buscemi from Fargo in my vague simulacrum of @curepixel.bsky.social's style (and using the very cool and awesome #fading16palette) a fun lil challenge suggested by @datagoblin.bsky.social!
a pixel art portrait of Steve Buscemi's character from Fargo with a caption that says "That's too FAR for me to GO."

BREAKING: Several Xbox studios, including Compulsion, Ninja Theory and Double Fine, are negotiating with Xbox as they try to avoid closure. Some or all could spin off. Lots still in flux as many studios remain unsure about what's happening. Here's the latest: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

AI agents trained with "strict" security protocols still handed AWS credentials to strangers because the email mentioned an "urgent production issue." Technical defenses collapse when attackers exploit urgency and familiarity. #AISecurity #Phishing

My favorite Amazon Game Studios story is when I was tasked to evaluate their Lumberyard engine, which they assured my company was "production-ready", and I found out their UI toolkit couldn't print the studio's address because it contained the German ß character

This gave me some troubles making it look more natural, but it is working now. I like it when enemies follow your position with their heads. I remember playing Mario Odyssey, and being very impressed at how Mario will move his head and look at things around. #gamedev #pixelart #indiedev #indiegames

Good evening! 🌜✨ Today's work!: -Improved animations (I will continue to improve them). -Access to its expressions from the code. -Light control of the direction in jumps to correct landing place. Things that seem simple but require hours of testing! 👍✨ #3dart #indiedev
