This is why we make games! Starting a new game on October 1st, watch the process live on twitch.tv/timbeaudet #GameDev #IndieDev #livestream

for today's #indiegamedev shoutout, we have Rushcremental by @timbeaudet.bsky.social youtube.com/shorts/9aS8e... an incremental of racing, gathering scrap, and watching numbers go up store.steampowered.com/app/2695500/...

Just a few days before release and Scope Creep demands I rewrite the entire Title Screen of the game... #post-apocalyptic #indiedev #programmer

Did you know a one a button game could be confusing? I’ve been working on an active #incremental #racinggame and it’s launching soon! September 1st

Challenge: 31 Consecutive Days of Game Development Effort. To enter, leave a comment, and reply to it daily with the tasks you completed, or put effort into. Ex: Day 12: Got player double-jumping and springing off the wall. [screenshot]

2022-07-22: I didn't go chasing this down, but I did complete any part of the api break this would have so rest of the issue, if there is actually an issue, would be implemention details. Did I have a stroke while writing this comment? What the hell does it even mean?

Also, I got a cat. Officially adopted her yesterday after fostering her for a week. This is Violet (shelter given name which may change). Comment with your #gamedev #pets!

It isn't much to look at, but this is a WIP animation that I slapped together today in Blender. If you enjoy driving around random roads, racing for the fastest time or otherwise controlling vehicles: we can be friends!

Windows trolling me.. the first mis-grabbed file is my fault, watch what happens when I grab it the second time... www.twitch.tv/timbeaudet/c... #programming #gamedev #windows11

What does being an "Organized Game Developer" mean for you?

I make games. Make games requires solving an endless stream of problems. I am a professional problem solver. The biggest problem I face is making sales; whether that is a game worth buying, or getting people to know about the game in the first place... 🐔 or 🥚?? #gamedev

Anyone care to send their (safe for work) ideally gamedev/racing/tech related stickers for my cabinet?? #StickerBomb

Tomorrow I will share what January 2026 has been like as an indie developer when I stream the business review. How much I earned, how much I spent and what lessons I learned to be a better #GameDev / #IndieDev will be discussed. Where: www.twitch.tv/timbeaudet When: February 1st: 6am ET / 1100 UTC

Absolutely killer week of gamedev with a huge reveal on todays stream. It was awesome and I hope yours was as well! Share what you've worked on! #IndieGameDev #indiedev

Excluding tonight, I can't remember the last time I bought something on pure impulse... I may have thrown $30 in a bin, but my inner child is overly excited!

You can still chase stronger workflows and better understand and better works without gen AI #indiegamedev #solodev #aislop #maekgaem youtube.com/shorts/Bb9i0...

@ottermakegames.bsky.social gave me an interesting thought... "There is a difference between a commercial and an ad, I don't know what it is yet but..." This feels mind bending. It feels completely true, yet I also can't describe it further.

Oh, another demo to check out! Looks awesome! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2695500 #gamedev #indiedev #steamdemo #freetoplay #newgame

How Not to Release a Demo: Prepare the build, prepare the promo content, Open Steam, press "Release" ... Have your power go out. I'm trying to tell the world that store.steampowered.com/app/2695500/... is coming to Steam and now has a Demo! I'm on a phone with LTE because ... my power went out.

This is the most niche project I could do - correcting the graphics of the trucks from the original Monster Truck Madness. Trying to keep the "made in Deluxe Paint" style, but more correct to the real trucks. #retrogaming #simracing

Big announcement on Friday! If you already know SHHHH! 🤫 It's going to be a fun stream!

My 100 day game was in here, as were HUNDREDS of other amazing indie games. What a year! #gamedev #15seconds

Attention Indie Devs! I just need 15 seconds ... of your game footage! A lot of people jumped on the 15s video trend, so I thought it would be cool to make a compilation to help indies get some visibility. The anti-spam key is "kook". lonewulfstudio.com/indieshowcas...

In 25 days I went from idea to a build on Steam, I have 75 days remaining, and am diving into the settings screen now. www.twitch.tv/timbeaudet I don't often post when going live, but I am often live, making games and sharing tips & tricks. Stop by and say hello!

It is a touch early still but I wanted to share this while I remembered, @gbgames.com has some fantastic advice for the upcoming holiday season: youtube.com/shorts/VG0HB...

streamBuffer is an in memory buffer of audio data, what did past-me mean with this comment??

Apparently #PitchYaGame is a thing and it is today! Collect scrap resources in Rushcremental - a post apocalyptic incremental/racing game. I’m building this in 100 days, live on twitch.tv/timbeaudet.

What got you into GameDev? And where are you in your venture? Did you have a life altering moment of clarity? #indiedev #gamedev #programming

22 days into the game and I am nearly feature complete. Still have Steam achievements to do, and to get all the loops fully connected. And of course struggle with racing... the area of my "expertise" Join Playtest on Friday at www.twitch.tv/timbeaudet #indiedev #indiegame

Improve efficiency by flipping upside down and finding the lowest priority tasks to be avoided. Discovering what NOT to focus on will naturally also lift the important tasks! This is a lesson from my business reviews, join my next one on 6am ET, Nov 2nd. twitch.tv/timbeaudet #gamedev #indiedev

Nearly 15,000 hours as an IndieDev and absolute best value/time spent has been monthly reviews. Spot mistakes sooner and pivot to add value. Join my live review on Nov 2nd and learn the leverage of this system! www.twitch.tv/timbeaudet #indiegamedev #livestream #gamedev

Do you have spaghetti code? And use Visual Studio? There is an awesome option that will clean all your code! Build > Clean Solution will make it sparkly again! #gamedev #indiedev

A few lessons from doing a ridiculous amount of interviews 😅🥳 #indiegames #indiedev #gaming #interviewtips #gamemarketing

My code purrrrrs at me. Does it think its a cat? #indiegamedev #gamedev #cpp

The IGDA has started to use "IGDAF" to describe themselves and I read it as IDGAF *every time.* It stands for the international game developers association foundation, but I really think they might want to reconsider the F on the end there.

Today is the first. For me, that is pay day. Unlike a normal payday this one sucks. It means I move money from my runway into an account where it disappears by the end of the month only to repeat the process. Someday I hope my runway grows. This is the challenge I am faced with. Grow thy runway.
