My SimTower-inspired game, Vertical Empire, is coming along nicely! Been slowly adding new goodies. Used some of the assets to make a better start screen. Hopefully, I can release this before the project's first anniversary, which is fast approaching! #IndieDev #GameDev #PixelArt #SouthAfrica

Finally able to announce this! Super excited to be working with @orangepixel.net once again! This time, I'm writing the narrative for Ashworld 2, a post-apocalyptic open-world game. Can't wait to share more in due time. 😎 #IndieDev #IndieGame #NarrativeWriter #PixelArt

A big story driven open-world extraction survival game? Sure in the current #gamedev industry state that makes total sense for a solo #indiegamedev 🤣 - I figured I better team up with @thegrahamza.bsky.social for some proper story writing: www.youtube.com/watch?v=avgf...

Running your #indiegamedev as a business instead of a hobby means spreading your time smartly across maintaining existing games, wrapping up upcoming games and starting new projects and prototypes. This is how my week involved FOUR different game dev projects. youtu.be/JiteDuQ9ULA

At last, the idea guy's opportunity

Reddit post at /r/indiedev #indiedev

Experienced team looking for an ideas guy

Individually we each have over a decade of game dev experience across the indie and AAA space. We’ve recently formed a team to make a game and realized we have no ideas!

We’re looking to hire someone with a great game idea. No experience necessary. You don’t need to provide any meaningful contribution to the project other than ideas and opinions. You will get 50% of total net profits, we will split the other remaining 50%.

If you or someone you know might be interested in this, please remember that no one needs an ideas guy and this isn’t an actual job.

Thanks!

Out of curiosity — anybody looking for a full-time/long term Art Director, UX/UI Designer, Motion Graphics Designer/Animator, game designer, "jack of all traits, master of some" who knows Godot and Unity to join their team? Asking for a friend. [It's me, I'm the friend]

My good old trusty game development laptop is getting a much overdue replacement, by "The BEAST". A fully geared out PC ready for more indie game development but also AAA game playing and of course video creating and maybe some let's play's in the future? ;) youtu.be/ex8Fxb2azjY #indiegamedev
