What it feels like when you're an indie developer on a tiny team juggling multiple roles. Catching your breath for a moment hoping the monkeys don't show up.

What would probably help build interest in Cake Maker is if I showed you all the main menu! This is how it looks in dev build .8.43. It might get a little bit of change for release but here's a peak into Tom's bakery! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamdev
Spoiler for those who want it to be a surprise.

In the final stages of balancing Cake Maker and it's almost there. Friction is good but I need to see if I can get a little more play with a full tray. Might have to change treat weights.

What an interesting game design insight!
Due to the unique way Super Mario Bros. stores its maps, its level designers were at the mercy of the decorative hills and bushes when placing bottomless pits. While the pits can be placed freely, the decorations are non-negotiable and dictate the level design.

As Gutterbean buttons up a few things I need to do final game balance checks. Fine tuning the play area and its objects to get the right level of play. #indiedev #indiegamedev #independentgamedev #gamedevelopment

@tobyfox.undertale.com Pretty sure you compose music. Can I pay you to make a couple songs for a game I'm nearly done developing? Please contact me for details if you're down to make some TUNES!

Is anyone who follows me a native Swedish speaker that also speaks English? I've inadvertently written myself into voicing someone who speaks English with a Swedish accent.

One of the things I've had to do as the one doing most of the work on Cake Maker is I made an official bluesky account for my developer title! Go follow @astralknightstudio.bsky.social! Things will show up there eventually. #indiedev #indiegamedev #indepdendentdeveloper #indiedeveloper

I carry a couple snacks in my car because I used to live somewhere really cold. Now when I run in to a panhandler asking for change I ask "Are you hungry?" If they say yes, I give them my spare granola bar. I feel like I'm in complete agreement with the universe every time I do this. Great feeling.

Should I do a crowdfunding for Cake Maker? An Early Access? I think we'll have the game done by December but it'd be nice to get some income until then and maybe use it as a spring board for promoting the game. Hmm. #gamedev #indiegamedev #independentgamedev #gamedevelpment

GenAI has been a disaster for trying to find real spacesuit and good astronaut references. What an absolute trial.

I forgot to find a Pause/Unpause sound for the game. Only noticed it as I was checking the sounds and a part of my brain said "Wait, something is missing."
What no one tells you about sound design is that a part of it is like going on a scavenger hunt, digging around through libraries of sounds and tweaking them to get them just right. So much fun.

I tried to post about the Charlotte auditions on a voice acting reddit and got immediately removed. So this is another heads up that auditions are still open for 3 more days! Please repost and share it around so more folks get a chance.
Also still looking for music.
