I'm working on a game based on H.P. Lovecraft's short story. It will be relatively short experience made in PS1 style and fixed cameras, main goal is to practice in UE5, 3D modelling and level design before I'll do my own original game. Since it's for practice, game will be free. #gamedev #psx

Adjusting brushes in #blender and of course using the cube to dabble with them.

I am just not cut out for this kind of life. I need to hide inside like a gremlin and sometimes come out with a weird thing I made that someone hands me money for, and then I go back into hiding.

Friends invited me to play Machine Party I rarely play party games, but this one was made by Mike Klubnika, so I wanted to try it. And I can tell you it's REALLY FUN! 15 different mini-games inspired by other party games but in this industrial dirty style - it's brilliant.

This blew my mind, can’t wait for it to release!

So, we're not only can't have games on discs, now we can't have a game in the collectors edition of the game, ok.

Parasite Eve II Just look at the screenshot, it’s such a basic side room, BUT… You can walk behind semi-transparent shower curtain, while character is reflecting in the mirror also behind semi-transparent shower curtain. I’m not the only one that find this stuff fascinating, right? #psx #retrogames

True. Playing Parasite Eve II and blown away by how awesome this survival horror is.

One quite reliable way I've found to keep my brain working on the same game is to make some soundtracks early on. The main theme for Glaton Ghost Club is now 2 years old and it still motivates me to keep going. I think I've never shared it so here you go #gamedev #vgm #horrorgame #solodev #indiedev

It's almost spooky month so time to share my starter pack of amazing horror #gamedev s who don't use AI. If you want to be added it would be awesome if you told me a bit about the cool #horrorgame you're working on✨ Also if I'm following you but you're not in this pack pls leave a comment as well♥️

Glad to participate in Double Fine AF 2026 demo playtesting and voting for the next project as a backer! Voting is opened until Sept 30 so as Kickstarter page. Glad to see so many people supporting Double Fine and can't wait to see the documentary of this Amnesia Fortnight! #DoubleFine #indie

I don’t know what I feel now tbh. The saddest and the happiest outcomes happened. Xbox started the closing process of Ninja Theory, because potential deals with new owners failed. Double Fine went indie on Kickstarter and are now making 4 prototypes to choose from. #NinjaTheory #DoubleFine

ITS OUT! ⚔️ Slash-Out: Fantasy Dueling ⚔ OUT NOW ⚔️ Battle 10 Unique Bosses KICK THEIR ASS, OR THEYLL KICK YOURS 🛡️ Journey across a diverse landscape on a quest to defeat an ancient evil Fight a DJ Wizard, get eaten by a whale, all this and more! 🥩 FUCK AI, THIS IS MADE BY FLESH AND BLOOD

Xbox is publishing Physint. Hmm But they recently shut... WAIT: - June. Hideo Kojima is told Physint is cancelled. - Kojima goes to Xbox to save Physint. - Xbox isn't good with money at the moment. - Next month Xbox cuts off several studios (Double Fine, Ninja Theory etc.) - Xbox publishes Physint.

Behold! The boss of the horror fuse puzzles. Fear The Spotlight #horrorgames

Creating this no-ai indie games starter pack is one of the best things I ever did on BlueSky. Lots of great developers in here, making things with their own hands, some of whom I might not have found otherwise!! go.bsky.app/78u8M6Y

Callisto Protocol is beautiful really I almost finished it and let me tell you something Story wise this game reminds me of some other survival horror series: Virus turns everyone into zombies, but in rare cases it will turn you into mr X with powers and stuff.

The default cube of tomorrow. Well... All Tomorrows. #blender3d #defaultcube #AllTomorrows

The Artful Escape is so beautiful and bright, it was really fun to play! Run forward, shred, speak with strange creatures and liberate yourself from the people's expectations. #TheArtfulEscape

Mullet Mad Jack is a must play for those who love fast paced shooters and 90's anime vibes. Just finished it and it was awesome! #indiegames #MulletMadJack #retrogames

This: #MulletMadJack

One more day!! It Consumes releases tomorrow (Aug 4th). It's been a long development, but I'm really excited about how it turned out. #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev

Why people tend to call all the low-poly games "PSX-style"? I see some low-poly horrors describing themselves as PSX-style but they're just low-poly, high res textures and render resolution etc. Please, don't do that, it's like calling each cosmic horror "Lovecraftian" #PSX #lowpoly

I'm blown away by the photos made by Rubin Observatory. Instantly remembered that chilling quote from a Black Mountain Side.

“When an animal looks up into the night sky what does it see? Thousands and thousands of tiny points. Then a man looks up at the same points and see millions of stars, galaxies, within which are millions of planets. Do you want to know what I see?” Black Mountain Side (2014)

Finished A Quiet Place: the road ahead You know, the game is really creative and cool. I never expect something good from a game based on a movie, but here devs cooked! A new mechanic every chapter, sometimes every level. The game is scary and rarely release the tension. Play with mic on. #horror

Feel more confident in Godot already, but there’s still many things to get familiar with. Anyway, I already can say that it’s much more suitable for the retro games that I wanna make.

Double Fine survived! Yes!

Watched Obsession What an incredible horror with some really unpredictable and scary moments. Also actors are top notch, especially Inde Navarrette playing Nikki in such an uncanny ways that it gives chills down your spine. #obsession #horror

The orchestrator is super intuitive and PS1 looks are easily achievable. I like it even more than in Unreal, much less stuff to turn off. I stick to Godot, it’s official. Diving into practice and learning. #godot

If someone uses AI to make picture, I believe this person don’t enjoy drawing. Uses for game dev - not enjoying game dev. Same for music, code, 3D etc. I really think that the best stuff we get from people who have fun creating it, who love the process, however slow or hard it may be sometimes.

Finished Eternal Castle It's an interesting experience, there were a few frustrating moments where I felt like I need random to bless me, but these were too rare to ruin the experience. Style is awesome, so as animations, really liked how weapons feel and overall gameplay.

Wait, Godot is like 160mb? Am I downloaded the right thing, lol It’s so cool

Well, recent UE news making me thinking more about switching to Godot. I really love visual programming so will check the Orchestrator and if I can replicate PS1 look in Godot. If both =true then switch, else cry.
