Stress test of fully interactive, physics-based cables⁉️

A lot of you asked how performance-heavy the cables are, so here’s a small example. 🚀

I accidentally made physics-based cables⁉️😱

...then spent way too long making sure they don’t explode across the whole map when I step on them.
(I know, sounds way less cool now)

For the past year, I’ve been working as a senior level designer on a fantasy RTS called Darfall.

We are a ridiculously small team, but I think we managed to create something special.✨

If you're into Shadowrun or Mission: Impossible-style cyberpunk games with heists, cool characters, and a gripping story, boy, do we have a game for you!
HeistGeist is currently 30% off on Steam. Check it out, why don't you. (Steam link in the bio)

I guess having your game make it into the popular section on a torrent site is an achievement of sorts? 95% of our current players are playing the pirated version.
The irony of people "stealing" our game about hackers and thieves isn't lost on us. 😄

My friends made a game! <3
HeistGeist, the cyberpunk RPG set in a futuristic version of our hometown, launched on Steam three months ago today. It still feels surreal that our small team managed to pull this off the way we did. Thanks to everyone who played the game!

I want to do something to help indie game visibility, especially for those that choose to self publish

So here's the plan: I made a list of self published indies. I'll add people to this

It will power a feed, of only MAJOR updates for your game. Releases, demos, sales, updates, etc

Why does Unity keep making reasons for people to avoid it? All they gotta do is make engine, support devs, and charge in a way where you don't suddenly go out of business over your engine choice.

On this episode of "Unity fucks up", apparently client revenue counts towards your own? Is that true?
So Unity recently decided that the tiny startup I dayjob for needed to upgrade to Industry at 5k/year/seat. We had no chance to contest it because they would have killed our only product. They even threatened people we worked with in the past with the same.

It's not just us.

DO NOT USE UNITY!
