Take a break from being depressed that everything you love is being destroyed by slop for a moment and let me tell you about the beautiful symbiotic relationship between graffiti writers, train yard workers, and model train enthusiasts.

The problem with basicaly all "AI art" is that the corrupt subtext makes the subtext of the art "I'm kinda dumb"

AI is great. It's allowed software developers to build their towers taller and taller. Soon they will reach Heaven and greet God

As a child, I grew up on the finest of literature.

Okay. Hear me out: Backrooms Pinball machine...

you can tell video games are Art because Gamers hate them

New #gameassets ✨ I've created 150+ light cookies/masks compatible with all game engines that support this feature. Includes white on black, black on white and white on transparent backgrounds for each. CC0, public domain, all free! kenney.nl/assets/light...

Some screenshots from my game ! 😁 Can't wait to release it now that I announced the date

Sorry I haven't posted at all about my personal #gamedev work. I have been very busy focusing on my friends and family and my own health because of *broadly gestures*

Animated menu for Crankstone. Pimped with Pixel Composer. #playdate #indiegame

After two months of waiting finally my #playdate is arriving tonight 🥹

(We can upload GIFs as videos now!!!) Fin-ally back to working on Fish Heaven after taking December off. Here's some purdy distance fog applied indiscriminately to everything. Terrain is placeholder, too detailed for perf. Working on vertex color interpolation / texturing and a lower-poly model.

Fortnight crashing seconds before my first win of the year. This better not be an omen 😡

Wishing all my fellow game devs a happy and healthy new year. Rest up, y'all deserve it ❤️ #indiegamedev

I now feel extremely guilty for the sins I have committed against my sim children 😭

Don't tell my mom that I am now playing with fire (shaders)... in a forest 🤫 #indiegamedev #gamedev #madewithunity

Don't tell my mom but I am playing with fire (shaders) #indiegamedev #gamedev #madewithunity

Wow currently #12 on the itch.io/games feed! Honestly this blew past my goals for release. Thx everyone for playing and the kind words 😭😭😭 #gamedev #horror #indiegamedev #psx

Behold my demon #cat

Serious shout-out to all the itch io #horror game streamers and content creators. It makes working on little free horror games worth it! My wife and I have loved watching the videos ppl have been making of DADDYS CHRISTMAS #gamedev willpyle.itch.io/daddys-chris...

I love visiting my in-laws for Christmas. My father-in-law, Tom Nakashima, is always cooking up some insane paintings in his studio 🔥 #art #painting

My wife played the game for the first time last night and screamed so loud it concerned our neighbors lmao. I might post a video of it later if she lets me #horror #indiegamedev.

I JUST RELEASED MY CHRISTMAS THEMED #HORROR GAME PLEASE PLAY AND BE NICE TO ME ABOUT IT THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND MERRY CHRISTMAS ☃️🎄🔪 willpyle.itch.io/daddys-chris... #indiegamedev

Stayed up WAY TOO LATE finishing the itch io page for "DADDYS CHRISTMAS" my little Christmas #horror game. I forgot how much work setting up a page can be! I will be releasing it tomorrow morning after I sanity check myself. Hope some ppl play it!!!

I actually managed to gather a kickass group of game devs here, ranging from hobbyists, industry veterans, indie, AAA, and more, all because we have cats lol Anyway come check out the members of my Cat Owner Game Dev pack, or join it, REPLY WITH A PIC OF YOUR CAT TO JOIN go.bsky.app/TLzCfpp

Windows 11 in 2024 folks. 😒

I have really been cooking on a Christmas #horror game and I can't wait to show more. It's been a refreshing break from my other projects 🎄 #indiegamedev #gamedev

"Domain Reloading"? Don't you mean "Bluesky Break"?

Okay for real though this would be straight fire 🔥

Letting this #gamedev cat cook over here 👩‍🍳

The demon demands #gamedev stop for the day. Who would I be to deny his wishes?

I was procrastinating working on transitioning to a "ragdoll camera" when a player gets hit but I finally sat down and just did it. I think it turned out pretty well actually! #indiegamedev #madewithunity #rascalrecess

#gamedev #unity Looking for thoughts: There is a debate about organizing folders/assets by systems vs by file type. I do BOTH. I have a top level folder for systems (any file related to the system is in there). And then I have a "Loose Content" folder for organizing by file type. What do you do?

As a #Unity dev for almost 10 years it pains me to agree that I need to move over to #godot asap. It feels like I'll be starting all over again. But, I think the relief of finally being removed from Unity's horrible business practices will be worth it. SAD! #gamedev

I like to imagine every agile obsessed producer has a backyard that looks like this #gamedev
