I sure do love setting a release date thinking "yeah, that's enough time, I'll get it done".

Then suddenly I'm time crunching and spending 14 hours per day the last days because I miscalculated the remaining work left. Anyone else has gone through the same?

There are funny moments but DAMN Denji, CHILL OUT. It's the embodiment of this man

Boyfriend wanted to watch #ChainsawMan with me for the first time...
Most awkward thing ever

I wonder what's this that we've been working on for 0.7.3... 👀

Is it bad time management when you have set goals for an update but you end up investing time developing a *future* planned feature?
So you end up doing it earlier than expected... But at the end of the day, it *is* something you were planning to do eventually... buuut...
#gamedev #indiedev

"finally it's less work"
"oh wait, maybe implementing this new idea won't take THAT much time..."
...
"here is more work"
(Rinse and repeat)

I use DBeaver for managing my project's SQL database but every once in a while I use the Debian terminal to access it... and MY LORD, it was so scary at the beginning. Not me almost wiping the entire user table because I forgot a WHERE 😭
(Don't tell anyone else about this)

I think starting very early on is not *that* ideal if you're spending a lot more time thinking what your post may be or how to gather audience... But if it's just a side thing while you focus more on developing, I don't think it's *that* bad.
Depends on how much time you put away from development

Even if not *all* of your followers turn into downloads/sales for your game, the fact that they might repost your stuff or talk about it is already powerful by itself, since it may reach people who *will* become interested in your games.
It's a gamble, but I guess sometimes it's worth taking

I mean, I think it has to do more with visibility than anything else... Well, I'm speaking for myself, at least, but I can guess it plays a part as well for everyone else.
I see it as a way of getting yourself be known. The more people know you and repost your stuff, the more visibility you'll get

*spent the entire day debugging an error*
*mission failed. went to sleep*
*wakes up the next day*
"hmm what if I change this one line tho"
*instant fix*

One thing I love about Linux is HOW EASY IT IS TO INSTALL PACKAGES. It's so convenient, and then you start realizing how cumbersome it is to install the same thing on Windows.
Granted, it can go both ways... but you start appreciating it eventually

Announcement made. Now I rest.

(Two minutes later: *opens IDE*)

Let's goooo, good luck!

The artstyle is very unique, seems fun to play!! (My boyfriend would love playing it but I'd surely get dizzy with so many jumps 😅)

POV: It's your first day at LICH CORP

#gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegames #animation #boomershooter #fps

Ah yeah, are there more chinese anime/series like these? I've come across a few ones, but I wonder if there are more 3d-styled like To Be Hero X
#anime #donghua

People should really watch #ToBeHeroX. I literally recommend it to every person I talk to that mentions anime. I KEEP SNAPPING MY FINGERS EVER SINCE I WATCHED THAT ANIME

And I'm finally making an account on BlueSky! Not really the kind to post lots of stuff on social media, but I'll give it a try!
Here's one of my #MonsterHunter screenshots from back when I played World!
I'm also an #indiedev, so... hope to meet new people here to support their work as well!
