Driving a car is like watching a movie from a comfy seat. Riding a motorcycle is different: you become one with your bike and, suddenly, you're IN the movie as the main character. #NightfallStreak brings that immersion feeling by using a first-person camera in a third-person #racinggame. #indiegame

Thank you for your feedback. So many friends gave great advice, tips, bugs, and confusion. Redid the tutorial and redid it again. Adding glitter, sparkles, and rainbows when an item is really good. Instead of dying, you must escape Zazz's Realm. And hundreds of polish fixes...

Cartoon characters and text announce new 'Matchy Star' build with more items coming soon.

Here's a quick look at the gameplay of my upcoming racing game. Everything you see is running on my own game engine. There's still plenty to build, but the core experience is there. This game is achieving what I only dreamed with "A Snowy Slalom". #indiegame #solodev #directx #screenshotsaturday

Thinking about the importance of accessibility in games, I just published a quick video showing how my game "A Snowy Slalom" features a one finger control system designed to make racing more approachable for players who prefer simple, touch based input. youtu.be/tEXA3AaZs5I

A cute green dinosaur holds a white handheld gaming console in its mouth, gripping it gently between its teeth. The dino stands upright and carries an orange jack-o’-lantern candy bucket with both hands. The background is a warm gradient of yellow to orange, giving the image a playful Halloween vibe.

A whimsical creature with cat‑like features stands upright wearing a festive red holiday sweater decorated with reindeer. It has a large red nose, a fluffy gray beard, and small branch-like decorations on its head. The creature holds a bunch of mistletoe tied with a red ribbon in one hand and carries a woven basket on its back filled with a small Christmas tree topped with a glowing yellow star. Its long tail curls behind it, ending in a tiny bell ornament.

A large gray wolf is curled up peacefully, sleeping with its paws tucked in. Nestled against its chest is a small doll dressed as Little Red Riding Hood. Above them, nine cartoonish hunter icons are shown, each crossed out with a bold red “X,” creating a humorous tally. The scene has a warm yellow‑to‑orange gradient background and a playful, storybook tone.

A cozy pencil sketch of a dragon lounging in an overstuffed armchair, wearing a patterned sweater. The dragon smokes a pipe, with a curl of smoke rising above its head, and reads an open book resting on its lap. One clawed foot is propped up, wings folded behind the chair, and its long tail drapes over the side. The scene feels warm, calm, and storybook-like.

Finally, I got time to start my bsky account! I'm an #indiedev and this is the trailer of my 5th game, currently on #xbox . It implements a different gameplay than the traditional beach volleyball games. It doesn't look much, but it's the best I've ever created. #directx
