Making games for myself.

"Did you mean; 'making games alone'?"

No. Making games, for myself.

"... 'making games as a solo dev'?"

For myself. Made for me, by me.

"... ... 'picking your target audience for game dev solo free engines 2025'?"

Me.

It just says SPAGHETTI insurance over and over again.

I don't consider myself much of a sculptor.
But it is kinda fun to just mold clay or carve stone IRL, or mold polygons in 3D.

Selling games without a "pay what you want or download for free" option is not for me.
Making them works best as a hobby for me, so I don't have to worry about if what I make is slop or not, or successful or not.
I just make stuff I want, and share it if I want.

CD-i Luigi going "Spaghetti!" out of nowhere is a good way to get a laugh.

The way the view turns and there's this dark nightmare entity right up your face, just kinda forcing you to stay in close contact as it stares at you. Shivers down the spine, dude. So good.

This is probably the best way I've ever seen a dream, more specifically a nightmare/fever dream, getting recorded being depicted in fiction.
The waveyness and confusing/distorting nature of it, like the image struggles to stay comprehensible.
I love it.

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

Someone's screenshot of a two-post twitter thread, from user blue (@bluewmist):

the fastest way to kill motivation is to make your identity depend on the outcome. it's called ego involvement. when failing becomes failing as a person, your brain starts avoiding the whole thing. not because you don't care, but because you care too much.

you don't need lower standards. you need less self-worth tangled up in your goals. the work gets easier when it's not about proving who you are.

I want to make something playable this month and put it out there.

sAm @samdrawngame.bsky.social · 11d

Just a personal thing, but an easy mode icon being a baby and the description insults you for picking it stops being funny and starts to be bad design when your players just want a more chill experience after a bad day.

This BB one. Back in the day of memeing through gifs I made in Gimp lol.

Bizarre lore about me;

A dumb FNAF gif I made back in the day and uploaded on a now deleted Deviantart account ended up in an SMG4 (channel started by people who founded Glitch Productions) video.
