Looked into getting a MEM vending machine which is very reasonably sized but the bidding starts at $1500! So we decided if we can raise $1000 we’ll cover the rest. Donate here! venmo.com/code?user_id...

Went on a long 19 month journey with UFO 50 from building the LX in January 2025 to installing it at @wonderville.nyc to cosplaying as Woogy at @magfest.org and it’s finally done- 50 cherries. What a ride. What a game. Thank you @mossmouth.bsky.social

Hats off to UI designers. Can feel like a desperate exploration through less and less worse options, which ALL feel disturbingly off If you navigate that w/your sanity intact and are lucky, you can reach the mountaintop: obvious To which you'll get 🤷 "of course—what else would it be" #design

given that there's a contact sensor in the ball, i think the world cup broadcasts are missing an opportunity to implement screen shake

The most challenging part of being a solo dev for me is knowing when to switch gears. I get on these dumb kicks where I think: I need to get this done… I need sit down and program it! 💪 But! There's often some design ambiguity. So I just ignore those parts and do other things. #gamedev #indiegame

Watched Lord of the Rings and was guarding one daughter from the Eye of Sauron as she got something downstairs. Asked the other how I would defeat the Eye of Sauron. She said: "with your sigh of disappointment." I do not wield it lightly

OMG. Did a quick test. I think it actually *isn't that bad* to make a 2v2 mode in Sloppy Forgeries. Four mice madness. Two people painting on one painting simultaneously. 🎉🥴💀

A very simple thing in #unity3d that helps is putting important single instance things that don't need to be in prefabs near the top of the hierarchy in empty game objects.

𝕗𝕦𝕟𝕗𝕒𝕔𝕥 At an undisclosed location in Jan 2024 (ok fine #magfest) a gathering of artists of unmatched ability gathered for a clandestine Sloppy Forgeries tournament. During the final, our champion was SO FAR ahead, they went for a :3 flex. Not only did they win handily with this forgery...

🔊Testing Endings🔊 I wanted 5+ fast piano tracks in Sloppy Forgeries AND have them end on a dramatic final chord. Just got the MIDI lib I'm using to consider tempo changes when calc when to start (roundlen - endchord) Much better! Tho #3 needs tweaking. #devlog #gamedev #indiegame #indiegames

Took a few iterations to get accuracy feedback right. It's important players know forgeries are eval pixel-by-pixel. I wanted to show the player the pixels they got wrong w/o completely obscuring the final picture. ✨ Wishlist ✨ bit.ly/sloppy-bs #screenshotSaturday #gamedev #indiegame
