Put your sunglasses on for this one! lol our VFX guy made a fire spell and when the rest of us saw it, we thought we were staring at the sun, eyes wide open. ☀️🕶️! #indiegame #gamedev #ActionRPG

Thread 🧵 Making the cinematic character look consistent. we're creating a cinematic for our demo, but I suck at drawing the same face over and over again. Here’s a very simple solution I wish I knew earlier: #GameDevs #IndieDevs #ARPG

This has to be one of the coolest statues I've ever seen from sideshow #comiccon

A quick before-and-after from Varadia: improving player readability with a world dissolver, then cleaning up NPC interaction clarity. www.youtube.com/shorts/Atiyd... #gamedev #indiedev #unity3d #Varadia

One of the most recent tools I made was a worldResetManager, which saves cache states of the game, similar to Elden Ring. and it was probably one of the most interesting tools I've ever worked on. I made a post about it on indiforge, but i never shared it here. #indieDev #gameDev #unity3D #ARPG

Most indie devs don’t have a feedback problem. They have a visibility problem. Players don’t see what’s happening behind the scenes—so it feels like nothing is happening at all. I wrote about this 👇 open.substack.com/pub/fuzzyind... #IndieDev #GameDev #unity3D

I've talked to a lot of students who want to get into game dev—and most of them are unsure what they should actually be doing. So I wrote about it. Not just education—but what actually matters when trying to break in. 🔗 open.substack.com/pub/fuzzyind... #gamedev #indiedev #unity3d

Most indie devs don’t have a marketing strategy. They have a launch plan—and hope. After GDC, one thing was clear: Discovery starts before release. Wrote about wishlists, funnels, and what actually works 👇 open.substack.com/pub/fuzzyind... #IndieDev #GameDev #Unity #GameDevelopment

Just dropped a new devlog 👀 Working on procedural room generation for my roguelite — connecting terrain, fixing direction issues, and getting NPC pathfinding working across it all. youtu.be/mVYzBoV3KnE #gamedev #indiedev #unity3d #devlog

Just published my reflections from #GDC2026. Layoffs, new funding models, and the rise of indie studios show how the industry is shifting — but developers are adapting. Read more: open.substack.com/pub/fuzzyind... #GameDev #IndieDev #GameDevelopment #GDC

fairplaycollective.org It still seems small, but I like the premise. I think it's a much better approach that gives power to the people to decide where the money goes, and not the studios who let go of people when they prioritize profits over people #indiedev #workersFirst #gamedev

Another year, another GDC, with the current hot topic on the line. AI development, and indie game company growth. Excited to see what this year has to show us

There will be a unity product update - YT announcement tomorrow for anyone interested www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtOb... #unity3d #gamedev

Just like many posts before me. I too will be at GDC. Hope to see you there :)

Ever wonder how a “simple” chest works in a game? Behind the scenes it’s player alerts, animation, hooks, enemy/item mapping — all tied together. www.youtube.com/shorts/jFNzY... #GameDevelopment #Unity #IndieGame #devlog #indieDev

So much of game dev is invisible. The smoother a feature looks, the more work probably went into it. I Wrote a piece about the hidden effort behind smooth scene transitions and why “simple” is never simple in game dev. #indiedev #unitygamedev #gamedev #devlog

🎮 My first game dev project fell apart. 📊 Enterprise engineering—of all things—taught me how to finish what I start. Here’s what I learned the hard way: 👉 open.substack.com/pub/fuzzyind... #GameDev #IndieDev #SoftwareEngineering #devlife

Just added a new Fast Travel System to my indie game Varadia! 🗺️ Finally… no more running across the entire map 😅 🎥 Watch the short: youtube.com/shorts/tG92E... #GameDev #Unity #IndieDev #FuzzyIndie #Varadia

Many new developers always seem to be worried about imposter syndrome. And I believe if many of them talked to each other more, regardless of experience, will realize that we're more alike then you think... That were all concerned about quality and getting a good product out the door.

Varadia Prologue came out almost two weeks ago! If you haven't seen it yet don´t miss out on all the background of the world of Varadia and its land! Watch the prologue now! www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMlC... #indiedev #GamingCommunity #fypシ #RPG

I think I'm getting pretty good at video editing. This is probably my most. Viewed short so far youtube.com/shorts/Oce4_... #unity3d #uitoolkit #uxgamedev #gamedev

Anyone know how to add videos to bluesky video feed ? 🤔

When you finally fix the bug.... .... but have no idea why it works... #unitydev #indieDev #unitygamedevelopment #indiegamedev

So who got a pic with wukong yesterday?? #gdc #gdc2025 #unitygamedev

Had the opportunity to show off my Duolingo streak with duo yesterday, then I got a plushie 🙂 #gdc2025 #duolingo #developer

@teddydief.bsky.social thank you for your talk today. I've thought about that bottom up process before too, but never formed that idea in the same sense you did in your presentation. I do hope this idea grows!

Any indies interested in marketing, howtomatketagame.com/gdc2025 NGL this talk was super informative. #gdc2025 #indiegamedev #indiegamedevelopment #unitygamesev #ynity3d

Just attended the talk by @juliaminamata.bsky.social , @nehapolitan.bsky.social , and Renee Gittins, and it was so awesome hearing there experiences, struggles, and obstacles publishing and working in game dev. Ty for the talk!!

It was a great day 0 and so happy to be around so many fellow game dev focused peers. Here's to an awesome week all!! #gdc #gdc2025 #indiegamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment #gamedev

For all the people going to GDC, be sure to work on your plans this week! There's plenty of opportunities, but there's also some events that won't let you in because they're already full up. So checkout what's available, and what you want this week 🙂
