We just found out that we can't make #multilingual posts on #bluesky. Well, we can, but it appears most users set their content language to just their native language and that causes Bluesky to filter posts tagged with multiple languages, so almost nobody sees it 😕
Maybe separate posts work better?

I'm feeling inspired to compose new #gamemusic in the #indiedev studio today. 🎶 I'm thinking of a droning but driving background track and a sister track in a relative modal key. Then I can create a mashup of the two for a 3rd track, which could create musical symmetry among them. 🤔

Our #indiedev duo has a functional game loop demo! It's ugly and not ready for public comment, but our game designer and tester can help us get there. Now our process switches from building to refining. It's a fun transition!
Also, sorry we post early and neglect our time zone: Intentaré mejorar

This is fun but discarded #gameart for the back of a card, which was really just practicing with the new drawing pad and basics in #Krita. Being #indiedev means learning new things and reinvigorating some long-atrophied skills 😓

Our friends @playmodeofficial.bsky.social made something exciting for the #Dune Imperium Uprising #boardgames that holds all of the game pieces in AND out of the box so they come out ready to play! Cut our setup time in 👉⅓👈
I want this for all our #tabletopgames. Check them out!

Save drafts! 🚨
#IndieDev isn't a perfect process. We discovered our #gamedesign was bad when testing the game loop and it felt like failure. Was there a bad change or was it always bad? 😨
Luckily we could revert to our first draft cards and game balance was restored, revealing the bad changes. 😌

No more working title!
"Improve the Groove" will be the first game from #indiedev Studio Dhjamb!
We felt like this was a good fit after developing the mechanics of how audiences react to your band's evolving musical style that is based on how you upgrade and play the cards

Some big developments last month...
- Theme established: Music! Build a band and earn fans around the world!
- Outlined a #gameaudio structure using #Godot for dynamic background music to support the theme!
- Game title brainstorming (soon no more "Project Purple")!

Work on the #gameaudio and #gamemusic is taking off! We had a great meeting with our collaborating analog #drummer to conceptualize and compose distinctly different moods that complement the draft synthesized tracks. Can't wait to see how this plays out (pun intended)!

Hey, #GamingCommunity! What are your *all-time* favorite games?
We challenged ourselves to list up to 50 of our favorite #gaming experiences by asking, "What games do you have the fondest memories of playing?" We then rank-ordered and compiled them to generate the #StudioDhjamb top 10!

Well, it's not always about #gamedev in an #indiedev studio. Sometimes you're trying to get #linux and #godot to run well on a laptop that wasn't specced for #linuxgaming development and demonstration. However, it's good manners to share when you succeed:

We're looking at #godotcon and next year's #magfest since we're mid-Atlantic, ourselves
