I'm done with the tons of refactoring needed and some graphics. I'm soon done with the basics of this map editor. There won't be any way to save the map, but I don't mind, I just want to draw so I can have cool screenshots atm :)

That moment where you're out of ideas for the name of the tool, but you get a surge to feel like Dr Doofenshmirtz

Tuesday has been a public holiday here so I've been able to do bits of gamedev, but not 100% of what I needed for the screenshots.
I thought I could finish yesterday evening but ... a big release during my dayjob kinda exhausted me, so I've done nothing on the game eventually, but maybe tonight?

Alright, once I updated my Steam page with the new and shiny maps backgrounds (I need to progress on this part of the game), I must start some new ways of doing marketing.
Because 78 outstanding wishlists in 40 days is cool ... but nowhere close to the objective 😅

Yes I'm a fanboy ... but I'm so freaking hyped!
I'm probably going to be an early client, I loved Valve Index and Steam Deck. Valve made good hardware for a few years now :)

This has finally motivated me to review Extortion and Alchemistry's price for Poland.
So be happy, polish peeps, my games went from zł22.99 to zł17.99 :) (So down from ~5.4€ to 4.25€, for a 4.99€/4.99$ game)

Does Steam have its regional pricing under control? Some analysis for the latest newsletter: newsletter.gamediscover.co/p/does-steam...
Does Steam have its regional pricing recommendations right?
If not, what should you do about it? Also: a bunch of new Steam releases & the latest news.

I miss the moment when, with a 10€ Netflix sub, I could watch all I wanted.
Now, even with the 3 different subscriptions included in my home internet (Netflix, Prime, Disney+), I can't have the movies and series I want to rewatch ... No, I won't buy a digital version, if I buy, that's gonna be a DVD

Forgot to share a #wishlistwednesday yesterday!
On Logistik, I was working on the map background items and the first results aren't looking bad at all!
Next step is probably a full-fledged in-game map editor for me and the community :)

🧵 1/16 - Monthly summary #34, October 2025
Good morning! October has been a "small month" with 35h spent on my projects... And yet, lots of things to talk about. This month: Extortion 5th anniversary, some fun bug, the community is lovely, and of course, you know me, STATS!

It started as a joke from my parents 2 or 3 years ago, but I now have a passion for unicorn
So I have a whole shelf full of them in my dining room, along with my books, and I love this quirk of mine 😂

The 5th anniversary update + 2 week sale + Ada Lovelace sale sold more than 200 copies, which is more than the rest of 2025!
Even though that was less than 2024 because Ada lovelace didn't have a daily deal, that's cool I'm able to reach that much players after 5yr :)

Extortion is -65% off for the next two weeks and you can get both my released games for less than the full price of one with the bundle!
(And Ada lovelace sale should show up soon on Steam!)

I really want to switch to Linux but there's no way I can do that seriously soon
I've just spent *hours* to make one soft work, found major issues in multiple ones, including freerdp and KDE
And I'm on a stable flavor ...
It doesn't brick anymore when updating, but it's far from w11 stability :/
