Remember! A game is only as good as the feedback you get. For quality feedback, head over to the RPG Beta Testers server - discord.gg/6wzKXYpDNN. It's #screenshotsaturday and it's time to show off what you got! In my case, it's this snippet of PLOT CRITICAL ARTWORK #rpgmaker #rpg #turnbased #gamedev

Been a HOT minute since I posted any dev - doing a full playthrough of all the content already takes 25-30 hours, getting mighty rough doing QA solo! #rpgmaker #turnbased #gamedev #screenshotsunday

Publisher haters be like 'I'd rather have 100% of 10 than 50% of 100'.

Sure, you can self publish and the percentages look better, but the job of a publisher is to take games which have a chance of being successful into the hands of as many people as possible.

Issue is bad publishers, not the deal

Remember: Back your friends' projects, and back projects you believe in. In this case, I'm lucky enough to be able to do both.

Sometimes, when just playtesting, the game really looks like a "real video game". On those days, things feel alright. #screenshotsaturday #jrpg #indiedev #turnbased #gamedev

Occurs to me that not a lot of people have seen the style of CGs that I'm using throughout Knight Shift. Tryna give it a sort of motion comic vibe. These happen a lot throughout the game #rpg #gamedev #turnbased #screenshotsaturday

Sometimes, an adventure is just four idiots who together make up one near-competent human being. #rpg #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #turnbased

What a great way to start the year! Thanks to everyone who voted, and to everyone who takes time and energy to run the event every year!

Fwiw, every game nominated was fantastic, so it feels neat to be among such titans! Let's get after it in 2025! #gamedev #rpgmaker
