-FAST TRAVEL HAS BEEN ADDED TO GIGASWORD-
Also, the game is now 20% off during the Winter Sale! This is probably the cheapest the game will be for a while, so don't miss out!
Thank you so much to everyone who's played so far. You're helping to make my dream a reality.

This is like paying the guys that robbed your house to also burn it down.
Disney is making a $1 billion investment in OpenAI and will let the AI platform use its characters to make social-media videos.

The one upside of generative AI is that it made me value human-made art more. Art that didn't really impress me before feels way more meaningful now. Thanks slop, you made me appreciate human creativity more than ever.

We're stoked to introduce the 'No Gen AI' seal for indie games!
Indie devs can use it on their game's store page to assure potential players that their game was made without the use of Generative AI.
You can grab it from the Polygon Treehouse website:-

Just rolled credits on GIGASWORD by @studiohybrid.bsky.social.
It's easily one of the best metroidvanias I've played in a long time, and reminds me of the games I used to play as a kid while still providing a good challenge and a fresh, ambitious experience.
I can't wait to see what comes next!

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.

If you're an indie game designer who is prone to jumping into things and has a lot of unfinished projects, watch this. Can't overstate the value of prototypes enough.

Happy Halloween! 🎃 A bunch of our faculty got together for a group costume again this year.
Our theme this time: Delicious in Dungeon / Dungeon Meshi, so of course I had to pick Chilchuck. Shorty squad solidarity! 😁
