It's frigGIN SCARY HERE AT NIGHT 🧟🦴🧟‍♂️🪓👁️👄👁️💦🦴 #gamedev #indie #minecraft #runescape

I keep having my phone die on me when I'm testing games on mobile. It slowly starts throttling, I'm like damn I have to do an optimization pass again, and it just dies. I wake up. #gamedev

sky islands. need to find ways to travel between islands that are too far away...... ideas? #gamedev

#gamedev #minecraft #runescape WATER! ...and I changed how the atlas works, now you have a pregenerated map, which is more traditional. I think it works better and is a bit clearer. I playtested the game two days ago and people kind of fumbled with the old system. It was too novel in a way!

You can harvest the lodestone, but you have to deal with the consequences... #game #gamedev #runescape #minecraft #nethack #roguelite

Breaking a lodestone gives you the island's magnetite, but the gravity gradually starts flipping. You have limited time, as after the gravity is flipped, you land back at the last lodestone you travelled from. #game #gamedev #runescape #minecraft #nethack #roguelite

HOTTEST power grid tycoon of 2025 now on iOS! Find electrobillion on the App Store! #gamedev #indie #citybuilder

Cooked up a fat new website to celebrate the iOS launch, now you can find electrobillion on the small screens #gamedev #indie #citybuilder

#gamedev #indie #citybuilder #electrobillion I'm doing a crazy sprint trying to get iOS out of the door! Press kit coming soon, alongside the App Store launch!

It's glassed up #gamedev #indie #citybuilder

Multi-day power outages slowly create 'distressed' buildings, they take time to repair, and are restored quicker when power is back. It works well as a feedback mechanism that gradually balances excess demand to give you a breather (distressed buildings consume less!) #gamedev #indie #citybuilder

@itch.io will setting my town on fire catch your attention? #gamedev #indie #citybuilder #rust

Tips now fade out other UI elements, very important for reducing clutter and focusing attention! #gamedev #indiegame #ux

Feature development? Uhh... HAMMER SMEASH! YEAAAARGHHH #rust #gaming #gamedev

I was profiling Safari and found out a crazy ~20% performance hit (getAttribLocation × 18). Safari in general has been disappointing though, performance-wise Firefox WASM & WebGL is just even better than Chrome. #iOS has to get alternate engines on ASAP! #rust #gamedev

Is Rust really too slow for game dev prototyping? Yes!.. and no. 😉 My 2 cents after 3 commercial titles on why the initial pain might be worth the long-term gain: evrim.zone/blog/opinion... #indie #indiedev #gamedev #rust

I'm getting closer to having a fully-fledged mobile app for #electrobillion: #rust to #webassembly to #ios UX is shoddy at best, but it works! It's an app! #gamedev #indie

Hold actions turned somewhat into a minigame where you have to regularly prune mutated trees, and get a bonus on power sources you maintain in time. It's a lot more engaging and makes you run around and manage pollution much harder. #gamedev #rust #electrobillion

I'm working on improving the substation/pylon UX, and it feels like making sim games is often about wrapping great UX on top of complex systems. #gamedev

I avoided putting up a panic trap for a while (for no good reason), but it's such a necessary tool. #gamedev #rust #webassembly
