FTL

Of course FTL! Which Dev has not played this game and thought, man this is awesome, and simple, and I can make something like this and been oh so so wrong about the complexity.

Bad North

Art by the very fantastic @oskarstalberg.bsky.social. To me this game has the perfect scope for an indie game. If I can make a game half as good I'd be so happy!

Squad

I still play this game every week, I have over 3k hours, it's my chronic addiction. Teamwork never felt so good.

Battlefield 2142

This game was so innovative, mechs, hover tanks, giant floating titan battleships. This was the start of the
golden age for battlefield.

Star Wars Knight of the old Republic 1&2

A standout title in the RPG space. So many play options, most impactful being the choice of dark or light side.

Guild Wars

I'm not big on MMOs but this was a heckin fun game!
This game had a focus on competitive PvP gameplay which made it stand out compared to other MMOs at the time.

Day 3.

Dawn of War

The first great game in the Warhammer franchise and as a young Warhammer player, seeing my plastic models essentially come alive fired all the neurons in my primitive brain.

Day 2.

Majesty

This was the first game I remember buying, $10 from the bargain bin. It's a Sim and kinda like an RTS too, it was hard to get used to, but it was a great, although fairly niche game.

Day 1.

Red Alert 2 & Yuri's Revenge

I was probably 8 or 9 at my cousin's place, after playing this game I was completely hooked. Before this I'd only played Nintendo games like Mario Bros and duck hunt.

Whoa this game looks awesome!

Still working on a prototype, nothing to show yet 🙃 so here's a picture of our dogs.

GOAP is the GOAT when it comes to game AI. Crash Konjin's Unity library is awesome! It's free, has tutorials and is open source.
I've been playing around with the V3 beta and I'm loving the improvements.

Indie devs! I want my feed filled with folks making games! Like, comment, share, follow whatever so I can follow your projects! ❤️

Guy Walker's Stagecast pages were an amazing source of tiling information.
Sadly, it seems to have gone down a year ago, so I've rehosted it on my own site so dead links can live on.
Check it out, it's got many useful details and fun bits.
