Yes, I am still working on this 🤣🐦‍⬛ I have to say it is incredible cozy to have a micro bird garden on your screen while you do other stuff As someone who has a balcony with a bird feeder, this just feels like I am adding it to my desktop now bsky.app/profile/ween...

I created this small cozy corner where birds can freely come and go on your desktop 🪿 My original goal was just to porotype how I could do some on-desktop games with #raylib but I ended leaving it on because it feels so cozy Maybe I should add a pond there as well for the duck #gamedev #indiedev

Well how about that, 18 reviews and positive 4 days after Kinsfolk release! Talking to folks that played and reading reviews on how much the story meant for new fathers or folks that had recently a parent pass away really hit me more than I expected 💛

One of the most proud moments in early Kinsfolk development was figuring out good locomotion for the main character. I mean just look at that feet placement matching the mesh 🥹 #UnrealEngine5 #indidev #indiegame #gamedev

Most of Kinsfolk is just volumes everywhere 😅 It was the easiest way to implement a lot of mechanics, I probably when overboard. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Vinko Kodzoman | Kinsfolk 👨‍🍼 @weenkus.bsky.social · 20/10/2025

External traffic (mostly X) vs steam visits during the #SteamNextFest for the Kinsfolk demo. Interesting to see X pushed more traffic, I think this means I need to work both on the game and the steam page 😅 #gamedev #indiedev
