Gugames

I just finished the game, and I really liked it. I have one main complaint: too many paths and choices, which - instead of pushing me to replay it - left me frustrated. Also, some puzzles could have used a bit of signposting. But the game is very good and funny, I recommend it!

I'm really enjoying Escape from 8-Bit High, but there's something about this alien's voice that feels odd

There's a lot of talk about AI cloning of videogames lately, with indie devs now hiding their ideas and mechanics in fear of being copied. And I'm like... good luck cloning an adventure game from a couple of screenshots or a vague description of the plot! 😄

So, one flees Twitter for BSky to escape from the bullshit, and what do they do? You know what, I'm fed up with social networks. We need to go back to the old days of Internet made of personal websites and blogs you had to go to.

It's almost like this game is talking to me. (Escape from 8-bit high, by @duckmadeofwood.bsky.social )

I might give in. I just downloaded Visionaire and I'll try to remake the first room from Eulogy For Nonno just to understand how waysystems and animations work. I don't think I want to leave PowerQuest, but it's always good to have more tools in your toolbox.

Did you know that we have some super-star-dev cameos in Escape from 8-Bit High? @gugames.eu / @richbrown.uk Check their games, they're amazing! But also come and see their cameos in: store.steampowered.com/app/2761220/... #indiedevs #indiegames

I'll be streaming some more #110AdvChal games in around 30 minutes. I have less time today (90 minutes at best) but I hope to get through another six/seven games.

Stream over, I had fun. I really want to do this more often. I went through six games in 2.5h, so I'll need two or three more streams to finish. Thanks for everyone who stopped by. The recording is on my Twitch channel if you want to have a look!

I'll be going LIVE in 5 minutes with the games from #110AdvChal See you at: twitch.tv/2112guga

I really want to livestream my judging process for the #110AdvChal so I'm now making some preparations, if I manage to set everything up I'll be live tomorrow between 3pm and 4:30pm CEST / UTC+2. Stay tuned!

I was busy all day with our chess tournament, which has been an unexpected success (22 participants, everything went smoothly), so I haven't followed #110AdvChal at all. I see we have 19 entries for now. Gonna try to find a day to play them on livestream this year.

Our chess club is holding a tournament this Sunday and I was stressed by the organization. Our goal was at least 20 participants and yesterday we only had 11. I even had nightmares tonight that everything was going wrong. Then I woke up and we're now 16. Why do people wait for the last minute?

I'm currently 1 for 2. Lost the first one with a dumb mistake on move 7, won the second one recovering from a not ideal position. It turns out my opening prep is utter crap, I have to study more. Now three more turns to score the 1.5 points I need to reach my personal goal.

I'm glad I'm not participating in #110AdvChal because tomorrow I have a full day chess tournament and the first Saturday in the jam is always sacred for me.

Day 3 of #110AdvChal i've done quite all design, characters and objects. The game kicks off right away with a strong opening #pixelart #indiegame

What innocuous stuff had an enormous butterfly effect in your lives? In my case, that would be adding a Uni colleague on MSN Messenger after seeing a new nickname the Uni group chat. If I woke up 10 years later, I'd be VERY puzzled as to why I'm now living in Zurich and I have two kids with her.

#110AdvChal has started and the theme has so much potential, I kinda regret not being a participant. I can't wait to see what people come up with! itch.io/jam/110-adve...

I love gamedev cause it makes me focus on many things: writing, drawing, music. Especially the latter - I used to play, but I've never been very good. Making music for my games scratches that itch. Here's the theme from Farty Party's, the frustrating mini-game from The Will of Arthur Flabbington.

My award-winning (really! check the store page) game finally got to 120 reviews. 95% of them are positive! Did you play it? It's a comedy point and click game made for hardcore puzzle lovers 😁 store.steampowered.com/app/2174720/...

I went to a local food festival and half of the vendors had AI-gen pics of their menu items. Blatant false advertisement aside (you're not gonna get a meal that is so abundant for sure), they all looked revolting. There was a tiramisu that looked like it had warts. I wonder why they keep doing this.

If I had a nickel for every World Cup where Spain doesn't win the first game due to a player born in Cape Verde then beats Portugal 1-0 in the ko phase and eventually wins the final 1-0 after extra time while a man up, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

You bought a bunch of games during the Steam Summer Sale and want to recover financially? Why not try a free game then? It's a compilation of 10 short adventure games that you can play in roughly 30 minutes, perfect for these long summer days 🏖️ store.steampowered.com/app/4096750/...

On the train to work, a man in front of me is wearing this shirt ❤️ I *had* to tell him I loved it. It's always cool to find adventure game fans out in the wild!

Was Vargas vs Vargas the first time two people with the same surname faced each other in a penalty shootout at the World Cup?

I FUCKING HATE AI.

I was going to be in Sardinia with my family today, but my flight got cancelled. At least it didn't get hijacked to an undisclosed location. Have you played Mutiny on the Clodia? It's part of Adventure Jampilation, my free compilation of adventure games on Steam!

Just found out that there was another public viewing 10 minutes away from where I live. I walked 45 minutes uphill for nothing.

Wake up at 4 and walk 5km to go watch the game with other people. I love the World Cup 🇨🇭

26 people bought the Developer Support Pack for my free adventure game compilation! I'm glad they liked it so much that they felt I deserved some of their money... ...but you could have also left a review 😁 it's still at 18 store.steampowered.com/app/4096750/...

I might have disappeared from socials, but my games haven't! 50% off on all my games for #SteamSummerSale

No more POR-COD 1-0 It was fun while it lasted

POR-COD 1-0

I TAKE BACK EVERYTHING I'VE SAID SO FAR THIS IS THE BEST WORLD CUP EVER 🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻

Fuck Trump, fuck Infantino and fuck FIFA, but hearing the whole stadium sing the Mexican anthem was very moving. That's what the world cup should be about. I just wish Mexico was the only host country.

AI is becoming more and more human-like. It's now telling me to use a variable that has a typo in it and doesn't exist in the code. "It will boost productivity!"

I was a bit sad that Adventure Jampilation went from 17 to 16 reviews. But then I saw that the missing review was the only negative one. Can we get to 20 with a 100% positive rate? store.steampowered.com/app/4096750/...

I didn't talk at all 🤣 only the club president talked, I was just there playing chess with him. But hey, I was on national TV!

I'll be on national TV today 😅 if you're able to see Swiss television, I'll be on RSI La1 at 17:00 CEST. I won't be talking about games though. I'm there as a representative of my local chess club. Well chess *is* a game. But you know what I meant.
