Introducing: DEGENERATE STAR Investigate the S.S Vandermeer and discover the fate of those aboard in this surreal sci-fi horror visual novel. Releasing later this year: store.steampowered.com/app/4751190/...

Since the NO GEN AI Next Fest thread took off, I wanted to share this spreadsheet that Chris at @crossplaycrew.bsky.social @indietorial.bsky.social put together. Recommended NO GEN AI demos from Next Fest October 2026 👇 docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Thanks to everyone who played the DEGENERATE STAR demo during Next Fest! Despite the AI barrage, I more than hit the amount of wishlists I was hoping for :) The demo is up for Steam Scream and AdventureX, so if you haven't tried it yet, you still can! store.steampowered.com/app/4751190/...

happy to have the demo out for next fest, but the amount of AI sludge is really disheartening :( if you want to play a human-made visual novel about exploring a warped spaceship, look here: store.steampowered.com/app/4751190/... indie devs, please link your non-AI projects in the replies!!

Next Fest has begun! Please check out DEGENERATE STAR if you're interested in classic sci-fi horror with a liminal twist ;) store.steampowered.com/app/4751190/...

didn't have time to design a puzzle, but i've got everything working (my dog's name is bear lol)

more messing around with pico-8

chilling and brushing up on my programming knowledge by going through @mixolumia.com's pico-8 series and am having a blast!! i've heard a million words about how fun pico-8 is but it really, really is fun and these tutorials are top-notch :)

I'm kicking off a series of videos for absolute beginners who want to learn programming games. Pico-8 is a fantastic engine for devs who have been at it for 10 years or 10 seconds, so join me and let's make some fun stuff! www.youtube.com/watch?v=mH9-...

Public Domain Art is the lifeblood of small tabletop rpgs, but it can be a nightmare trying to find the right art and license. This week, I’ve re-uploaded my old list from 2020 (with updates) of public domain websites. That's 500,000+ public domain paintings, photos, maps, and film. Link below 🔗👇

Found a copy of this in my inbox, looks interesting, but I am so jam-packed atm I can't possibly accept. There's a demo tho, so giving a quick shout-out!

DEGENERATE STAR's demo is OUT NOW!! Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4751190/...

not an extremely exciting post within itself, but i've decided to start a little blog page on my website for various ramblings. should have some fun stuff up there soon! ozoneinteractive.com/2026/08/26/n...

big stack of reference material finally arrived, so excited to dig into these :)

working on a lil development booklet to go alongside DEGENERATE STAR when it releases, it's so fun to go back through all the early designs

very happy to say i’ll be showcasing DEGENERATE STAR at AdventureX this year! come down and try the demo, alongside all the other cool games :)

i'm too exhausted right now to say anything meaningful about it, but DEGENERATE STAR is officially complete!! 22k words and however many renders later, it's done

added BOAT CARS to my parking lot sim, here we go!! Wishlist the game so you don't miss it: store.steampowered.com/app/3031880/...

"We did it!" "We did." "They have a chance! They- they might make it." "They will." "I wish we-" "I know. Me too." The second track by @ozoneinteractive.bsky.social coming in Autumns Build 2 is titled "A Future Built on Sacrifice". #FVN #furryvn

RUNT is coming to Steam on August 6th! RUNT is a rural gothic visual novel mystery where you follow the story of Runt, the youngest of five brothers, surviving a post-apocalypse in the town of Skipclaw, cloaked in darkness since the sky turned black ten years ago. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Pe0...

thanks to everyone who came to try out the DEGENERATE STAR demo at @brilliantindietreasures.com !! it's always great to talk to so many players and devs in person

All of Indiepocalypse (the monthly game anthology highlighting the exciting fringes of independent games) is on sale as part of the itch summer sale! Whether you pick up an issue or use it as a guide to find other developers' work, it's well worth a browse! itch.io/s/191413/ind...

I'm an indie dev currently working on South of the March, a hand-drawn RPG that combines visual novel exploration with turn-based combat in a dark fantasy world. Wishlist on Steam: s.team/a/4628420 or Itch: smallgraygames.itch.io/south-of-the...

you might think being a game designer involves designing games. incorrect. your job is actually making a million versions of the same picture at slightly different aspect ratios.

In exciting news, a bunch of my yuri vns have been banned in Russia on Steam b/c the Russian government hates gay people, & Steam sent me this lovely message telling me this is my fault & I should have done my due diligence by pre-emptively complying with homophobic laws 🙏

METAXIA has a steam page now + a trailer wishlists and reposts are highly appreciated! #metaxiagame

Still struggling to not think Zero Parades is in the Zero Escape series
