Bit of a late bloomer, but finally picked up GRIS in the summer sale and it’s absolutely stunning! The atmosphere just pulls you in. I normally skip cutscenes, but here I didn’t even want to. Maybe because… there’s no text? 🤔 I need to learn from this gem! #cozygames #gamedev

I get asked a lot (nobody asked): “hey, is that Sulo the Sidekick?” NO! This isn’t our Sulo! When our Sulo works as a tradesman, he’s polite, charming and negotiates the price ridiculously low without you even noticing it. store.steampowered.com/app/3561780/... #gamedev #wishlistwednesday #steam

Thank you Ian for taking the time to explain more about how to consider players with dyslexia! If you make decisions about anything text-related in your game, you need to read this thread. Small adjustments can make your game more accessible to a wider audience. #gamedev #accessibility

Pro Bluesky tip: get rid of algorithms altogether by dropping the Discover feed and follow some dedicated #gamedev #indiedev feeds instead

Nooo! Bad algorithm! That’s not what I trained you for! Sit! Roll over! Show me more that sweet #gamedev stuff!

Been prototyping the old "chain damage gun". Shoot one enemy and it'll hit a couple more. It's useless against single enemies, really. But to get the bunch down - yep. My aim still sucks though. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames
