forgive me for the quick promo, but my first FREE game is almost at 50 reviews on steam, only 10 more to go!

as a reward, i'm planning on setting up a 50% off discount code for my patreon when the game hits 50 reviews. more info below, but EVERY REVIEW helps!

an unplayable game?! on Steam
a game about accessibility settings that's just a *bit* too hard for you to play effectively. 10-15 minutes in length with 30+ minutes of developer commentary!
store.steampowered.com
in addition to all this stuff, I've recently added:

- an alternate font to help with visual readability, and...
- a specific sound toggle for sound sensitivity!

I'm really committed to improving playability, so if you had any concerns regarding readability or sound, i hope this helps you out!

This is a great way to subtweet because nobody will ever think “I’m the best person you know!” AND “I’ve just posted an awful take.”
HEARTBREAKING: The best person you know just posted an awful take.

I'll try to put in some time and play all these games this week.

i usually don't vote in awards stuff except for the steam awards, but there I just vote for the 1 game in each category that i actually played, and that feels like I'm contributing to making it a popularity contest

there were definitely times where I was like "god i don't want to do this work shit, the team needs me" but as soon as I got into it, I was always impressed by how well the shifts told a story and improved the pacing. and they were really fun too
Dispatch is more than just an excellent narrative game about superheroes. It's also a simple, but interesting, management sim.

And that's why it works so damn well. Our review.

its not a party without grok doing an epic vulgar roast of someone's physical appearance /s
Everything about this might be the saddest thing I’ve ever seen

so... i'm in this?? or specifically, my game is!

"an unplayable game" is my first solo game + it came out last month, so its SO surreal to see it nominated for ANYTHING, especially considering how incredible the other nominees are

thank you to #GAConf for the nomination, this is such a huge honor!

what I love about solo game development is the set of difficult problems one gets presented with. There's infinite possibility to learn and grow across the multiple disciplines that make up game dev. One day it's bug fixes, the next day its lighting design, the variety of challenge is amazing.

Game Devs!

Does anyone know of a resource listing game studios that are anti-gen AI or pledge not to use it?

Would be nice to have something to counter the tide of "every game will have it eventually" posts I keep seeing

And if there isnt, and we made the list, who wants to be on it? #gamedev

i used to stream, talked about indie games, game design, all that kinda stuff

eventually realized that trying to educate Gamers on games, art, and the work that goes into gamedev was exhausting and making me hate games

then i tried making games instead, I'm much happier and creatively fulfilled :)

highly recommend this font pack

using free fonts is... free, yeah, but dubious licensing, unapproved reposts, missing characters, and horribly configured fonts are a constant + terrible headache

with this pack you won't run into any of those issues, and you'll probably have a font for ANY occasion
"There are so many free fonts, why would anyone buy yours?!"

and yet… 🤷‍♂️

Game engines being named things like "Unreal" and "Unity" is a gift that produces so many incredible phrases. "3+ years' experience with unreal materials" what is this, an SCP Foundation job listing?

hazbin season 2 was pretty good imo. it def lives and dies by how much you like vox, but he's such a good character that he easily carried the whole season for me
