Order of the Sinking Star The southern area is basically Braid.

I regret naming my game “Öoo” because I can’t search for people’s reactions on Bluesky 😭

On this project I'm working on right now, I can barely remember meeting any of my self-imposed deadlines. If I worked at a company, I'd probably be fired by now.

Then I’ll come by on the 20th!

NamaTakahashi @namataka.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

I’ll be there on the 20th too! Would it be easier to meet sometime in the afternoon that day?

Got it! I’ll head over earlier then!

MONOMOON, my non-linear game about exploration and discovery launches on Steam November 11th! With no proper instructions, you must deduce and achieve your goals as you solve puzzles, find mysterious items, and uncover secrets hiding right under your nose.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword. Early on I was like, “I don’t even need to heal, this is easy,” but then the enemies got pretty tough later on and I was like, “Well... I haven’t healed at all up to this point...” and somehow I ended up doing a weird no-healing challenge for no reason...

I used to think working on a game for years must be incredibly hard, but once you’ve spent a few months on it, that “I’ve already come this far…” feeling starts piling up, and somehow quitting just stops feeling like an option.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword. Being able to rematch a boss right away might be more important than I thought. “I kinda just won” or “I wish I’d won in a cooler way” can leave you feeling a little unsatisfied. Being able to rematch right away lets you go for a win you’re actually happy with.

I feel like the history of The Legend of Zelda is also the history of puzzles.

“Can be completed in 2–3 hours” is a pretty effective selling point for me.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword. If I’m truly unrivaled, let me fight this old man.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword very cinematic

Lately, I’ve been thinking that the skills needed for development are all different, but they actually influence each other. Technical skills can create fun ideas, design skills can make up for technical limitations, and marketing can also lead to new ideas.

I actually think that if you factor in making a living, developing games as a team might be harder than developing them solo.

NamaTakahashi @namataka.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

fromsoftware games often put an unbeatable enemy early on, then let you beat them later or on a second playthrough to show how much you’ve grown. I think that’s structurally pretty similar to a “knowledge unlock.”

I think one of the best things about SEKIRO is that the final boss is the most fun fight in the game.

I feel like math might have the deepest “knowledge unlocks” of any field.

I didn’t know who Shigeru Miyamoto was back then either, and when I found out he was behind Donkey Kong, Mario, Zelda, and Pikmin, I remember thinking, “Wait, he made all of those?! That’s insane.”

Before I started making games, I thought every game released on Nintendo consoles was made by Nintendo.

NamaTakahashi @namataka.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

I feel like games that are fun to play and games that are fun to make can be pretty different.

I think most puzzle game developers write their own code.

I managed to beat it without talking to the skulls. I think I only talked to one of them.

Today marks the 17-year anniversary of Askiisoft’s ‘Tower of Heaven’. It was the first game project I ever worked on, and my introduction to the world of indie games. 🧵

Just a small note: Tsuyomi, who worked on the music, is missing from the developer credits. Would be great if you could include them too! 🙏
