I decided not to do whatever I had planned, and instead made some particle effects. Whenever in doubt make particle effects 🍂 #GodotEngine #VFX #ParticleEffect #GameDev #IndieDev

Just finished Cairn. Reminds me of what indie games used to be. A moving experience that catches you off guard with unexpected deep moments. Combined with a unique well-executed gameplay. IDK about game awards, but it's definitely my personal GOTY.

Good isometric scenes are dangerous. Every time I see one my brain just goes 'why aren't you working on yours right now?'

Yesterday I was tinkering with a PR implementing directional light projector textures in Godot. It suddenly turned into something familiar looking 🦊 #gamedev #godotengine

It’s not like we are arming up against each other or anything, this is just some friendly border negotiations about strategic resource allocation on the eastern farmlands. Everything is fine. #boardgames #scythe

Wonder why these great books don’t have decent e-book versions in popular online stores. All my other game design books are digital, and they are just CONVENIENT! #gamedesign

Here is a hard-to-swallow pill: The programming world is much broader than just game programming, and not all the good ideas are invented here. I'm really excited to witness the game development community finally embrace free and open-source software development after today's Unity incident.

Most of us knew that game dev is a creative business, and nothing else harms a creative business more than ignorant management dramas and cash-grab monetization strategies. Fortunately, 2023 gives us many new insightful examples, with BG3 being the most remarkable.

Besides, you’re saying it wrong. It’s GOD-OOH not GO-DOOT.

@emily.bsky.team Hi, I'm one of the many indie game developers here on Bluesky. We'd ✨love✨ to have animated GIFs (and video 🙏🏻) support to show off our work. Is this on a roadmap somewhere?

A brilliant article about ludonarrative RESONANCE in games. Has some great case studies about the games I love.
