Bzzt // Did you know you can play Killing-- I mean, Kissing Things With Your Friends - on Apple Mac? We have a Next Fest demo live on Steam right now! store.steampowered.com/news/app/367... #steamnextfest #indiegames #indiedev #coopgame #gaming
We are definitely using this in the next major version π¦β€οΈ
We build levels using asset kits, but scenes with hundreds of objects can mean hundreds of draw calls. On the right: the authoring level. On the left: what ships. Our tools merge objects, reducing this to one draw call per material. That means better performance β€οΈ #gamedev #tips #scifi #unity3d
How do you make players empathise with a six-legged abomination? π¦ At NZGDC 2026, we had a fascinating chat with an industry professional about the psychology of making players care about non-human characters. Videos like this help us to answer the question! www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3Re...
End of Ember was one of our favourite games at PAX AUS 2025 and SXSW Sydney the same year. We are so picking up what you are putting down β€οΈ
#weirdtober is here! Presenting: the attractive gimp. No not that kind of attractive: he is a prop/environment that attracts projectiles and makes is harder for Ember to shoot enemies. Bring the volume up for extra #weird sound effects #indiegames #indiegamedev #weirdcore @weirddaysevent.bsky.social

www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXXX... Great little interview from @topazsanvich.bsky.social, where our MD talks a little about Headlice - and how such a weird concept came about. Bonus mention of Pete Abram's Sluggy Freelance webseries (started in 1997!!!) #sluggyfreelance #PaxAustralia

Look, we know it's silly. You know it's silly. But all the same, are you going to miss out on seeing a giant crab-louse wearing a pirate hat? Ask CrabbyBot in our discord server for /freestuff: discord.gg/jNCNRmyMjy
We're going to SXSW! If you're attending @sxswsydney.com this year (and you should!), swing by the Headlice booth. The conference is massive and well worth your time, plus it's in gorgeous Sydney Australia. Tickets and details on www.sxswsydney.com. #gamedev #sxsw #sxswsydney
