LET'S GO! I'm doing a game dev marathon: 4 projects at the same time, art made in Windows Paint 98, No AI. Will I survive, or will I "Flip them burgers"? #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev

Steam Next Fest was the last exposure marketing beat for us devs, and now we lost that one too in favor of AI slop. We still pay Steam 30%, but the perks are almost all gone. #indiedev #gamedev

Commander, your orders are in: The Terraformer Wars demo is officially LIVE on Steam! šŸš€ Play the free demo now and take command. #incremental #autobattler #roguelike #indiegame

How much traffic does reaching out in the top game on Itchio? Well, I just reached nr 1 on incrementals, nr 1 on autobattlers, and nr 1 on strategy games on itch with "Terraformer Wars" Free Early Access, and these are the results from Itch: #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

YAY! Terraformer Wars just became nr 1 on Incrementals and nr 1 in the Autobattlers genre sections on @itchio This boosted our motivation sky-high. Prepare for a big UPDATE today #indiegame #incremental #autobattler #gamedev

There is a very thin line between valuable feedback and nitpick feedback. Valuable feedback can improve long-term game quality and should be prioritized While nitpick feedback can cause extra development costs for no real improvement and should be ignored. #gamedev #indiedev

Turn based combat dressed as a #deckbuilder game with a dash of #roguelike ā™ ļøā™£ļøā™„ļøā™¦ļø While #zombies keep pushing forward, make choices that impact the battlefield, build your survivor deck, and survive the outbreak. #indiegame

First 3 days on the Coming Soon page on Terraformer Wars. Wishlist conversion results. All traffic & wishlists were manually driven, unfortunatley nothing came from Steam. #gamedev #indiedev

Our videogame, the "Order of Wallachia" features an immersive, first person style of combat. Characters in the game react to your swings, and physics is applied to their bodies upon finish! #indieGame #gameDev #rpg #steam #demo

This is how I feel inside when I see how this industry changes the algo and the patterns from year to year and does not allow any stability in planning for a healthy game dev career... #gamedev #indiedev #Developers #indiedevs #gamedevs

Capsule art timelapse. Made the concept and the art in Windows Paint 98, then I added some lightning blur effects in Adobe Flash. Can you guess the main inspiration? TIP: its from a classic RTS game. #gamedev #pixelart #indiegame #indiedev

Im trying to decide the light color theme of the sun based on different times of day. And since this is an alien planet, I think I am safe to experiment with some exotic colors. #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev

HURAY! Today we have reached 500 FL on the Steam dev page, this is like 500 Wishlists on all future games by default. My only regret is that I did not set up the dev page sooner, don't make the same mistake I did. šŸŽ© #indiedev #gamedev #gamedevelopers

#Deckbuilder games have a stigma since 2021 when the market was flooded with card games and now they are associated with low production value. ā™ ļøā™£ļøā™„ļøā™¦ļø Well, hold my beer, I'm about to challenge this stigma and bring a high-value #indiegame within this genre. #horror #gamedev

What is a terraformer? A colossal weapon platform with special equipment that can terraform planets. What happens when 2 terraformers from 2 different corporations meet? Apocalipse! #indiegame #gamedev #terrafomers #terraformars #scifi #space #indiedev

First preview of all my Marthoon projects. Working on 4 games at the same time because why not. Special gImmick: I will deliver them all in high quality #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #retrogames #game #GamingClips
