Ollie Powell @olliepow.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Has anyone ever written a 'how to make the transition from AAA to indie' guide? Both in a practical sense and a psychological one. I feel a huge volume of us have gone through the ringer silently these past couple of years! #indiedev #gamedev 291
Ollie Powell @olliepow.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Squiggly shloooop! Still enjoy this old prototype effect for our Stretchy game #gameplay #indiedev 0122

We've written a big post all about the adorably incompetent SQUISHTROOPERS that you'll be fighting throughout the game. We're gonna write this regularly throughout the games development, so what else do you wanna see us devlog about? 👀 Link below: 1114

To celebrate our publishing announcement, we just updated that prototype with some QOL fixes and a new SPEEDRUN TIMER 🔥 Link below ⬇️ 1133
Ollie Powell @olliepow.bsky.social · 17/12/2025Making games is the ultimate video game. But that aside: - Rivals has been a good brainless online bash with friends - 30 hours in Liftoff taught me to pilot acrobatic drones in RL (without too many crashes!) - You should check out Stretchmancer, I've heard it's real good 010
