So I'm working on making the leaderboards for my rhythm game, is there any advice you'd have? Any games that do their leaderbords really well? Any things you don't like about leaderboards?

So I just finished playing Arco by @arcogamedev.bsky.social .
It was recommended to me and wow does it live up to its recommendation.
It's a wonderful game with exquisite pacing, beautiful art, fun gameplay, thrilling story and a great soundtrack.

I used to play LoL until the Linux version was exterminated. But recently found Wild Rift. I'd still rather be able to play on PC though but it's nice there's another option..

EternAlgoRhythm will be discounted by 19% for the Steam Autumn sale. It's a #rhythmgame with #proceduralmusic, and an #indigame by a #solodev.
store.steampowered.com/app/2678290/...
I will neither confirm nor deny that my discount strategy involves ever-increasing prime numbers.

Thought I'd share EarScript, the programming language behind the #ProcGen for EternAlgoRhythm. I wrote a specification and a "try it online" last week or so.
It's based on the idea: "what if brainfuck had goto statements?"

Hi @gamingonlinux.com , I noticed the post on the Gamedevs doing Linux list, and wondered if I could be added? I'm the dev behind EternAlgoRhythm, and my dev environment is in Linux, so it's a platform I always try to support.

While trying to solve a combinatorics question, it became natural to name an object "The Omega Shadow".
It sounded like a Sonic character but it seems Omega is already a character, so we may tragically never have the Omega version of Shadow the Hedgehog.

I thought I'd share this cool number handwriting VFX I made for my #rhythmgame EternAlgoRhythm. It uses a fairly straightforward shader and I used Krita for the numbers. Attempt #2, using an mp4 instead of a gif. #solodev #indiegame

Just to let everyone know who I am, I'm an #indiedev and #mathematician . I like teaching and the math that goes into #gamedev.
And I've made a #rhythmgame with procedurally generated music, EternAlgoRhythm store.steampowered.com/app/2678290/...

I finally had time to play #ProPhilosopher2 . I really loved the first game back in the Flash games era. I was so pleasantly surprised to see its sequel's demo on the same Next Fest as my first pro game. And the game is pretty awesome. If you like philosophy do check it out!
The time has come... we have finally launched our #AceAttorney inspired #philosophy debating sim!~ 🥳
And... we may have gone a little wild... because made a musical trailer. 😳
Hope you like our #indiegame as much as we loved making it!

I've been thinking of making tutorials for #Godot, and more generally about the maths that goes into #gamedev . Is there any topic you'd like to see more covered by tutorials? #indiegamedev #sologamedev

I've been thinking about adding leaderboards to my game. I'm a bit concerned about how to deal with potential cheaters, assuming I somehow manage to detect them. How would you deal with cheaters, specifically when the only multiplayer aspect is a score leaderboard?

I have to say the new Zelda Echoes of Wisdom feels like a great TLoZ-Pokemon hybrid.
You go around catching monsters, and some monsters hard-counter others. But then there's dungeons too.

I find it really interesting that Lego are actively working to preserve their history.
Whereas the large players in the games industry are, at best, letting it be lost, and at worst, actively destroying it.
