there's an upcoming game about the Gaeltacht that's doing the rounds on socials that's riddled with GenAI. Their excuse is "I'm making this game in my own time while I have a young family", which is not an excuse if you think of the thousands of games released by folks who didn't need to use GenAI..

We recently met Barry and Lara bibdu.bsky.social and fell in love with their work and passion for hand-made art. Bibdu is an Irish mythology RPG with open-world exploration and card-based combat. Every detail is so beautiful and thoughtful. How far will you go to become immortal once more?

Just spent a week in the north 1/3 of Ireland (draw a line from Dundalk to glencolmcille - everywhere above that!) researching locations for our game! Here’s four of my faves: 1. Labby Rock (Nuadas Grave) 2. Carrowmore 3. Creevykeel 4. Giants Causeway #irishhistory #mythology #indiedev #gamedevw

Indie game question: What do you prefer in a game - more animation/movement in scenes, or more scenes/story in general? I guess quality or quantity, sort of? Interested in hearing any opinions! #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #kickstarter

Personally, I generally prioritise ambiance over story, I’m very visual & find it hard to play something that doesn’t appeal to my eyes so story comes second to that - I’m wondering if that’s a common stance or am I in an echo chamber with my own thoughts lol
