I think Balatro is another game in a long line of titles that prove Indie games live or die by their UI design.

If you want your game to be successful your UI must be:
Beautiful
Simple
Intuitive

Skimp on UI, and it will have a major direct impact on sales.

🎨 Art tip:

Sometimes, self-care is giving into the mind gremlin & letting your creativity take the wheel 🤸

✋🏼 BUT, to rein it in: give yourself at least ONE restriction

(max 3 colors, finish in 1 day, have to use a specific tool, use 1 texture, complete a prompt, etc.)

✨️Artists/Devs trying to break into the industry or affected by Layoffs!! Friendly reminder that Scholarships have OPENED to help folks get FREE🩷 FULL RIDES to the Game Developers Conference (i.e all or most expenses PAID travel, access to VIP events, etc.) - Doc in 🧵

one month in on making a Tactical Clown RPG - Clowned King, inspired by fire emblem, disgaea and brazilian street clowns

plus an easy to use set of in-game tools to allow players to create and share their own stories and campaigns with others: bsky.app/profile/moon...

one of the worst feelings as an artist is when you have lots of ideas for what you want to draw but no time, then when you have the time you have no motivation, then when you have the motivation you have no ideas
