I watched #Tron: Ares and it was a 6.5/10, but only because the dialogue was a 1/10 but the special effects, action, adventure, literally anything that wasn't the spoken word was very fun and awesome.

IT. IS. DONE! At 40 years old, I've finally fulfilled my dream of making and releasing my own game. Never forget that there is nothing you can't do. No matter what you dream, the power to make it real is yours to command!

Like most art, most people will never see the half made pieces, and the filled up trash cans. They just see the end result, and so many incredible end results, that they believe that it must be easy because how else could there be so many
Everything about making video games is harder than you think.

I watched "The Conjuring: Last Rites" last night and my dog was watching the tv and she jumped when the doll started hovering, she was going crazy barking at the screen lol

What was the first game that was so"scary"that you had to turn it off and couldn't finish it?

Amnesia the dark descent. There's a scripted monster part and I just couldn't do it. Game is to stressful

Got a big day on Saturday! I’ll be showing my game in person for the first time at an event organized by an amazing LGBTQ+ collective. 🌈

I’m excited and... kinda nervous TBH. 😅

Wish me luck! 😁

If you see this, quote with a robot that isn’t from “Star Wars,” “Star Trek,” “Doctor Who,” or “Transformers".

I haven't been posting on here with my daily updates (I've been using discord) but my game now has little sprites shown in the battle screen, a dialogue system that can call scripts, and the battle system has a priority (moves the go first) system working! #gamedev

Indie devs! 📢

Act like all the game publisher bizdevs in the world are looking at this thread (they probably are!)

Pitch your game in a bite-sized way in the replies. Maybe you'll get signed! Maybe you'll get wishlists!

Show us your cool game and what makes it special. 👇

Folks! I’m looking for an illustrator to do some in-game artwork for an unannounced project on a contract basis in November.

Feel free to shoot me a DM with your portfolio if you’re interested!

Must be based in the UK, and absolutely no AI 🌟

After a few sessions of programming; making data types, resource types, and linking it all together, I ran my game for the first time without it crashing or giving 50+ errors. It's not pretty and the UI overlaps itself but it feels good lol

The #deadbydaylight subreddit is the most hilarious echo chamber I've ever seen. It's all people who never play survivor that attach their ego to the concept of "winning" at DBD. How do you win an asymmetrical game? Is it a 4k? How about a 2k? 1 hook, 8 hooks?

@nytimes.com paywalled the mini crossword and instead of moving me towards paying for their service, it moves me away. I'm broke, I can't afford superfluous expenses. The Mini is not at all worth the cost of a subscription to me, but playing made me want to get the full crossword when I have money

I started working on a game and here is the first area that I started mocking up. Dingy office with terrible lighting. My wife gave me suggestions on how to make it terrible and corporate including the mismatch lighting colors and the too-bright lamp on the desk. #gamedev #indie

#supervive is a sad story because it's a fun game that made obvious mistakes. So maybe a bit of a learning moment from my anecdotal experience trying to get other people to play the game. Note: I started when the game released 1.0, I am not a veteran. My friends also started at the same time

Magic: State of Design for 2025 is pretty interesting. I like the insight and as always I appreciate that Mark Rosewater is candid and honest. Though, the last paragraph of the Final Fantasy section feels like it's supposed to have something after it lol
