I've done some research on creating an AI-powered text adventure with a murder mystery theme. It turned out pretty well, and I think we'll see a lot of AI-powered RPG NPCs in the future. The speed is good, but the tokens are too expensive. One playthrough (~10 minutes) costs around €1.

"New Horizons" is now in Beta, and we're already working on the next update: "Homestead" – bringing plenty of decoration items to beautify your base.

The next update will be game changing! New biomes, new features, underground bunker, NPC bases, minimap and of course a procedural map generator.

Making great progress on procedural maps! The game will feature 8 diverse biomes, each with its own advantages, making the map more replayable.

🌨️ Tundra
🌾 Steppe
🌲 Forest
🌿 Meadows
🪨 Rock lands
🏙️ City
🔥 Savanna
🏜️ Desert

Some new "trees" for the new biomes in #RuinsToFortress.
The next big update will be amazing! Finally, procedural maps and seven biomes instead of two.

After a very long time, I'm participating in a Game Jam again. The theme is "kaputt." My interpretation of this is that the light in the level is broken—luckily, there are matches, paint, and occasional lightning flashes.

If you're planning to make a free-to-play competitive multiplayer game, here's a tip: Don't do it!
Implementing anti-cheat measures is a Sisyphean task and takes up valuable time and resources that could be spent on further developing the game.

First: Thanks a lot!
Unfortunately, there is no official support yet. We are testing some alternatives for input (e.g. smarter pickup or placement of objects without using the mouse).
However, it "runs" on Steam Deck with mouse emulation.

Happy 31st Birthday, #Doom! You were not only genre-defining, but also shaped multiple generations of gamers.

Never give up! Our game went from zero attention to 20k+ wishlists, even though we don’t focus on marketing. Here are the platforms we used and what we learned 🧵

I’m currently experimenting with a few ideas for new skins for the Chinese Year of the Snake. In addition to the DLC, skin packs are intended to help ensure the completion of our free-to-play game.
Would you buy it?

Wow, I’m still in shock. Our game is now among the Top 1500 most wishlisted upcoming games, and that’s without a publisher or strong presence in the gaming press or on social media. Thank you to everyone who wishlisted us! The release is just two weeks away.

We will be distributing 2-6 keys per #streamer starting on Sunday, approximately two weeks before the launch of our game. Play with other streamers, your community, or on your own.
Just dm me your channel and how many keys you will need.

I just learned that this #Godot fork, 'Redot,' is still around. I never thought changing the editor's default theme could have such a huge impact.
But something's off: they claim 20k+ followers on #X, but X shows 2k. Could be a bug or wiped bots.
Can someone confirm this?
November 26, 2024 at 4:16 PM
Some more playtests today before dropping some keys for the game to press and streamers starting on Sunday.
2 1/2 weeks left until the release. <3

How to get 8k+ wishlist additions in one week as a two-man #gamedev team?
1. Know your audience and your market
2. Localize!
3. Create an outstanding press kit with all the information, screenshots, and even text fragments.
4. Reach out to relevant press outlets in your niche.
5. Pray.
