Update on the Completed Games #journal with some great additions since our last. @silentchicken.bsky.social a really great movement and box pusher puzzle, with such beautiful drawn artwork. @ysbryd.net a short horror with *precision* platforming challenges, really tough! #indiegame #gamersky

Justice for #ReneeGood and #AlexPretti. What’s happening in the #Usa is beyond belief, but is happening. I may be from another country, but I stand with the people of #Minneapolis, #Minnesota, and everyone that is fighting against this atrocity.

And to kick off 2026, here's my 9th starter pack for games and studios to follow! I've been curating games and studios since I joined this site to try and help push devs and studios to promote their games more here so RTs are appreciated! Find the rest of my packs on my profile.

The Camposanto, a place that rather than honouring the dead, exalts the destruction of the living. Between graveyards, desecrated churches and mausoleums, Luca's fate will unveil itself. #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGame #Metroidvania #indiegames #pixelart #ドット絵 #sokoban #showcasethursday #SlidingHero

Fellow #gamedev, #indiegames enthusiasts and #gamers, I need your help in finding a way to solve this stressful situation. Any tips or suggestion could do. @partner.steamgames.com contact suport is MIA, and is not responding at my tickets. I just want to know if I have to move the release date.

Sliding Hero 2.0 - Out now @silentchicken.bsky.social · 18/11/2025

So, Sliding Hero's set to release on Thursday on @steampowered.com, just a couple of days away. Although I may miss the date: the game is still under @partner.steamgames.com terrible review system. Steam is great from a consumer pov, not so much for a #gamedev. Here's what happened 👇

Fellow #gamedevs, what is your go-to music to concentrate while working on your #indiegames? I'm currently rotating between Synthwave mixes, Relaxing SNES Music (how come Waterworld OST is full of bangers?), JRPG relaxing music and 90's Indie/Rock collections 🤘 So, what keeps you devving?
