those are all separate stores, mind you. I swear, they're all using A/I to manage orders and shipping and messing everything up.

Moving into the new house is going great: - bed delivery was delayed without details, then arrived with missing screws and no assembly manual - another arrived with one furniture missing, the other heavily damaged and with TERMITES?! - sofa, they just delivered the filling, not the covers...?

You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid

Our Lead Programmer, Zein Okko, launched a 50% off sale for their game: Soulblaze. If you enjoy monster taming combined with deckbuilding, grab a copy on Steam or Itch.io to support their independent work.

A tip to support indie games in general, if you have the choice between buying on Steam and Itch, Itch takes a much lower cut. Plus it's DRM-free! You'll actually own the game.

Did you know that missing credits can ruin careers, yet countless devs are excluded? Our alpha build for The Arab League of Misfits has a complete credits sequence. It might not be much for some, but all of our contributors (and of course licenses) get attribution on day one. #indiegames #ALoM

Those that know me well, probably know how much crediting means to me in the gaming industry. I worked for years with the @igda.org Game Credits SIG making sure we have a solid credit policy guideline for studios to apply freely igda.org/sigs/credits/

It's true that the internet, like the world we live in, is full of hate & cruelty, apocalypse & toxicity & mass extinction. But it's also full of wonderful things & magnificent people. And with great, constant, daily effort, that's the internet (& world) I choose to inhabit.

In the midst of all my family chaos, I've channeled my anger into wrapping up as much as possible of ALoM to be playable in Arabic. Lots of magic done by the amazing @zein.games but it works 😭 #indiegames #wishlistwednesday

First time I worked on localizing to something that doesn't read from left to right. Again, #Godot does an amazing job providing easy locale-based direction switching for UI and Labels. Fun challenge and learned a lot! I read Arabic like a pre-schooler so help from @nazihfares.com much appreciated!

10 minutes is still better than an hour tho 🥲 I do remember loading times of some PC games where my brother and me came up with summoning dances to make it go faster (it didn't). I do miss my N64, PS2 and GameBoy time where it was just plug-in and play.

💫 Interest check! 💫 Who would be interested in a live and online #Godot entry course, and if you are, would you want full beginner or engine beginner? (as in new to #gamedev or migrating from a different engine) Not sure about pricing but liking the idea of pay-what-you-want. #indiedev

Behind every game you love is a precise balance of focus, chaos, and a lot of caffeine. Left to right is some of your Arab Misfits including Nazih, Jack (mid-air calibration check), and Zein. Jumping into the #whatagamedevlookslike trend and saying goodbye to #Gamescom

Three smiling developers stand arms-linked in front of a white wall under a wooden beam structure. The person on the left wears glasses, a dark blue short-sleeved shirt, and tan trousers. The person in the middle wears glasses, large over-ear headphones around his neck, a white patterned button-up shirt, and light blue shorts while jumping mid-air with his legs spread wide. The person on the right has a full beard and wears a black t-shirt featuring a colorful, neon-lined panda graphic.
