This morning, watching streamers having fun experiencing Chapter 1 of @hytale.bsky.social really brought tears in my eyes, when I remembered this game was canceled a year ago. Thank you everyone! youtu.be/fL71yvZeCfI?...

Hey, apparently one year ago, #Hytale got canceled. French community at @hytalefr.bsky.social made a nice article about it, haha (I was not laughing back then). hytalefr.com/23-juin-2025...

Please feel free to use all of these in your next meeting
The square eisenhower matrix The round venn diagram The project management triangle The double diamond Boring. We have all seen these so many times. Why can't we invent some new ones, like: The torus of timelines The tesseract of accountability The octagon of alignment The cone of product
Little tribute to one of my fav game ever 🌚 #outerwilds @andrewprahlow.bsky.social

Whenever folks ask me about portfolios, I show them this video. In 52 seconds I can see what André is good at. I understand what he is good at. If I need to hire someone who understands game feel, and who can build that on their own, I will interview him. I know this in 52 seconds.
Recently had the opportunity to build 3 demos to demonstrate the power of game feel!
A great article about our game #Hytale and my artwork on the front page of @canardpc.com , a French gaming magazine I’ve been buying since I was a kid. Life goal achieved. I can die in peace ❤️

Hey, we're looking for animators capable of creating @hytale.bsky.social style animations with @blockbench.net ! Share your best animations and portfolios here! 👀
Really fun jam game by some friends
The theme of the #globalgamejam was "Mask." We created a tactical puzzle where the goal is to drag and drop the mask of a chess piece onto your character to retrieve its patterns. We're pretty proud of the result. Stay tuned for the itch io page, coming soon! #unity #gamedev #pixelart
Apparently we're adding "something" related to fire in one of the upcoming @hytale.bsky.social update. I hope kweebec villages won't be too affected by it.
Je donne une conférence Vendredi 6 au Shadok à Strasbourg pour vous parler d'Hytale, avec @tedartsel.bsky.social et @pierpier.bsky.social . C'est ouvert à tous. Venez nous rencontrer! 👨🎨💫 Sorry english speakers, still love you tho 😘
J-7 avant la prochaine Indie Game Night ! 💫 Il est temps de lever le voile sur l’une des trois présentations de la soirée… Depuis son trailer en 2018, le développement de @hytale.bsky.social a connu de nombreux rebondissements jusqu’à sa sortie miraculeuse ce mois de janvier.
Hytale community and @nitrado.bsky.social are organizing a big Hytale modding event, starting tomorrow! There are prices. Please share this if you think it could be interesting to your followers! 🦊 hytalemodjam.com
