Coming back from the Undertale Determination Symphony. Hearing some of those songs on stage blasted me back to the past being 15 and playing Undertale for the first time. It was quite a wonderful experience :) Anyways ever notice symphony is made up of "simp" and "phony", what's that about

I made the classic game designer mistake today of not considering "What if the player does literally anything except click on the thing I want them to click then do absolutely nothing else". The free will pitfall, always tricky.

Two panel comic. Panel 1: a whale fall lies at the bottom of the ocean. The bones are covered in a variety of bottom feeders and ocean critters. Panel 2: closer up, the group of bottom feeders are holding red solo cups and chatting with each other. Among the group is a tiger prawn, who thinks to himself, “I needed this…”

A dejected man puts his hand on his head and says "jeez, my 9/11 novelty shirts just aren't selling like they used to." Next to him is a shirt that says "6-7, 9-11" with the twin towers being held by hands doing the 6-7 weighing gesture." He observes another man successfully selling t-shirts and says "The Charlie Kirk guy is raking it in." The shirt he is selling depicts Charlie Kirk as Aang from Avatar The Last Airbender. The caption is "Counting or not counting Aang Violence."

Genuinely yesterday in the morning I felt a sudden unexplainable sharp pain on my neck, and only later in the day did I learn it was the Charlie Kirk shooting anniversary. Kinda spooky honestly

Due to certain real-life events (using Deutsche Bahn), I got a game idea: You are a traveller trying to get somewhere, but public transport hates you and is actively trying to stop you. All information is confusing, all trains are delayed, nothing is consistent, and everything costs more money

Together with my friend Olivia and Stramaberry, we made a game for the GMTK game jam! It's a game about cooking with microwaves at a fancy restaurant, as you may be able to tell for the name ;P Give it a try! itch.io/jam/gmtk-jam...

getting mad at people who think “games are art” because you want some games to be silly and fun too instead of too serious is the same thing as only praising “artistic” games both are treating artsy games as the exception meaning you don’t actually think all games are art puyo puyo tetris 2 is art

Pushing aside ownership/access stuff - when it comes to internet downloadable games, something we've had for more than 20 years now, outside of Steam, they don't stick with me. They fade away into a menu or even become inaccessible. There is choice paralysis - like a rom list - for me.

While talking about Spanish localisation, 'Would You Kindly' was translated as "Quieres?" in Spanish, which is something said at the end of a sentence rather than the beginning. Makes it a little weird but it was still pretty memorable at least, and it sounds more forceful. Also yes funny meme word

Nico, Indie Game Encyclopedia @niconickname.bsky.social · 26/06/2026
Random little thing I often think about that I imagine many people don't know: The Paper Mario games (at least the original trilogy) have amazing translations into Spanish. I played them in Spanish as a kid, and finding out years later that the English one doesn't have so many things was shocking

Oh my, there is more... You could try to jumpscare the player by suddenly showing whatever they most recently copied. Though that could end up like this meme instead of being spooky

I'm back to messing with window nodes in Godot, and I just found out there is a function to make your computer make the default "beep" (in the case of windows it is that annoying sound that players when you try to do something and it fails). Evil uses for this are manifesting in my mind....
