I put a haiku in this one. I'm the marketing manager, and that means I get to put a haiku in the short form vertical content. I can do that sometimes, as a treat. Our demo comes out OCTOBER 8TH! That's NEXT THURSDAY! #gamedev #indiegamedev #gaming #videogames

It's #TrailerTuesday again! If you like the sound of a game about being a robot blasting other robots and stealing their parts to rebuild yourself, give us a wishlist? Demo out October 8th! store.steampowered.com/app/2660180?... #gamedev #indiegamedev #gaming #videogames

I'll be honest. I tried to workshop the caption for this, I really did. I was thinking 'NO HANDS, NO PROBLEM' but I was told it sounded too much like something they'd put on a Deadpool movie poster. Hard to argue with HEAD CANNON though! #indiegamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

MEANWHILE IN SECTOR 80 @ms80.space · 23/09/2026

Pros: +instant de-escalation +no robot dogs harmed +robot dog has no thumbs, cannot operate elevator Cons: -you don't get to loot the enemy for parts -maybe not as satisfying as shooting them with a laser -need to run into an elevator with a killer robot #gamedev #indiegamedev #gaming #videogames

MEANWHILE IN SECTOR 80 @ms80.space · 22/09/2026

It was really nice of all those robot manufacturing megacorporations to make all their killer drones explode into lots of handy separate pieces after you blast them enough. It's the little things that make all the difference. #gamedev #indiegamedev #gaming #videogames

Two weeks ago, we posted an opening for an environment artist @ms80.space. As of today, we've had 1,270 applicants. There are so many talented artists applying to our little indie team. It's inspiring to see interest in our team and also heartbreaking to see how rough the industry is right now. :(
