I think everyone should be paying attention to what payment processors are doing to independent game developers right now. Games have been the testbed for a lot of the shittiest ideas going right now and you better believe this effort will broaden its goals quickly
More and more people reporting today that Stripe - the payment processor that Itch said were putting the most pressure on them - now have staff actively confirming that yes, they are censoring LGBT content, adult or otherwise. That this is official company policy.
This seems kinda significant.

#battletech pixel art! It's been a whole since I did one of these. I tried making mechs at a bigger scale. Hopefully they're identifiable enough, but answers are in the alt text!
(Also give me battlemechs so I may draw them sometime in the future)

Check out this cool collaborative effort to reinterpret old-school game graphics by numerous talented pixel artists! (There's even a toggle to see the originals). It's ongoing, but these #Zelda, #Castlevania, and #Pokemon redraws are delightful.

The Steam review system has become entirely destructive and counter-productive for indie devs. I've seen so many great games lately tanked by one bad review from someone who just didn't "vibe" with the game and couldn't keep quiet. Only takes 1 bad one on launch day to ruin years of work!

Imagine a Dino Crisis game (new or remake) with the style/budget/effort of the later Resident Evil games...

My gamedev company - Moonana - is currently going bankrupt slowly after 7 years of hard work and being able to pay all staff (an indiedev miracle). We've made a christmas game to thank our fans over the years and say our goodbyes worse comes to be. This is a thread on our history & our newest title.

"Steam Pixel Duplicator" a pixel art I made a for a project a year ago.
Looks better at 1X in my opinion, you can see the 1X version here: pixeljoint.com/pixelart/158...
