#GameDev with a decade+ experience.
Made: Voidship and some other things.
Worked on: Disco Elysium, Dream Engines, Good Robot, Unrest and plenty more.

Next release hopefully: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2315110/Voidship_Redux/
Funnily I've never actually played Disco Elysium.

The release version that is.

Had my fill staring at that world for 2.5 years as a #gamedev replaying Hanged_Man and other dialogues for x200 times trying to get the cutscene timing logic to work right.

Maybe someday. In n more years.

Hey #indiedev s who use #gamemaker!

Been away for a bit and have a question:

How much effort is it currently to make a 3D game in GM Studio 2?

I have a game plan that is mechanically relatively simple. Choice is to hook 3D onto a GM project, or learn an engine I've used much much less like Unreal

Finally deleted my twitter account.

Could not in good conscience give Musk any more ad revenue or the Kremlin bots sprouting imperialism any more attention.

Bit sad to lose all the connections and friends tho. At one point had 6k followers there. Gonna take a while to rebuild.

@buyfromeu.bsky.social

Much appreciate the follow, I'm very pro the movement and trying to sort my personal and work lives out to give as little money as reasonable to the US.

Switching everything I can without too great effort for European or especially Estonian stuff.

Keep up the good work!

I'm still here.

Will get back to gamedev soon. :) Have been very busy with non #gamedev real life stuff. Some good, some bad, but everything is looking up and the future is bright.

Since I don't have any screenshots again yet, here's a pic I took on a nice walk in the old town yesterday:

I think my Eastern European sense of humor might not quite match up to yours bsky. But we can work on that. ;)

Love all the rest of being here besides that.

Theres's a wholesome vibe of even such a joke post only getting nice "of course everyone who worked on the game is a gamedev" replies.
🎮🕹 I know the label #gamedev is tough to define. What do you need to accomplish to call yourself one? Are QA gamedevs? Is the marketing dept?

For all gamedevs suffering from Imposter syndrome I leave you these words:

Are you even close enough to a gamedev to have imposter syndrome about it?

@08games.bsky.social Ah, you made it! Lovely!

@anc1entgreek1d1ot.bsky.social Nice to have you on here, man!

🦋 I like everything about this new place except for one thing...

How hung up people are about twitter.

My feed is full of posts that are screenshots from or descriptions of twitter "Look how bad it's gotten!"

We're here for a reason folks, let's leave the old place behind- stop bringing it here.

Oh, you're a game designer?

Name all game mechanics.

#pixelart from some place different...

What kind of game do you think this would be from?
November 13, 2024 at 4:18 PM
Hey #indiedev and #gamedev crowd!

I would love to rebuild my network here, so if you recognize me from that other place, please give me a follow and say hi!

New #indiedev fear unlocked. Thanks @greyalien.bsky.social !
Steam only sent out 1/3rd of wishlist notifications for our latest Regency Solitaire II sale, and it's under-performing. We didn't put it close to any other sales so I wonder why it was rate-limited?

Small #gamedev #indiedev update on Voidship: Redux.

Today I was working on controls for the resource scanning UI.

Thought I'd add some visual juice as well while I was at it. I think it looks pretty nice now!

@benburnes.bsky.social BEN! You're here!

Been less active on the #gamedev front for a year.

Getting back into it now. First up is finishing Redux edition of Voidship. (store.steampowered.com/app/2315110/...)

Lots of new content+ Its fully controller playable for steam deck/consoles.

Testing WIP battle controls on the tutorial battle:

@benjaminrivers.bsky.social Hi Benjamin, any chance I could get added to your indie devs starter pack?

Thanks :)

@snoutup.bsky.social Hey man, Stuff going better now?

I have another joke about #gamedev on the works as well, but I can't release it yet because my marketing department says I need 5k more wishlists for steam sales to potentially recoup the joke writing expenses.

Shouldn't have hired so many writers...
I have a joke about #gamedev too.

I could tell it to you, but honestly it'll probably take years and we'll never finish it because somewhere in the middle I'll come up with a much better joke and start telling you that one instead.

Which also won't get finished because of this other new joke...
I have a joke about game development but it burned out before it got released.

I have a joke about game development but you have to spend three gems to see the punchline

One of the #indiedev #pixelart games I'm potentially working on right now.

Need to figure out some more subtle animations to some of these panels, but I'm very happy with the vibe overall.
October 22, 2024 at 10:20 AM
So I've been fiddling around here a bit now...

And turns out you can't post your own gifs on this platform? They only show up as the first still frame.

Any #indiedev #gamedev folk figured out a workaround? Or just tell me if I'm mistaken and you can.
