When games workshop raises the point cost of a unit because its part of some specific combo they should also include a Normal Person Discount for when you're like, hey this little guy looks cool I'll get one.
Take of Undefined Temperature: (extension of my previous toot) I'm not a Programmer I don't write Machine Code I write Game Logic I don't use HashMaps, I use Dictionaries I don't need to know about Memory Management - I have a Powerhouse Workstation running the latest Languages and Toolkits to do that for me I'll dip my toe in The Deep Lore, if I need something specific But for the most part, it's not my problem #gamedev #godot #gdscript #roguelike #code
it’s 2026, if you are a games writer you haaaave to know how to implement your own work
Why can't we put the character in the middle of the screen anymore. Why do I have one third of the screen permanently covered by the back of puppet that learned how to walk from Garry's Mod youtube poops.
Winterion Game Studios has less than no money, and we still paid our artists.
#OutlawsOfTheNorth My party is at a major transition point, so I don’t know what to prep exactly. I have two likely paths, but their reactions might be volatile and unpredictable. We’ll see how things shape up tomorrow. #TTRPG #GMPrep #Nimble #NimbleRpg
Character Creation Constitution Bonus HP Hotfix! Turns out characters weren't getting their Constitution HP Bonus when being created - that's now fixed! Thanks for the feedback so far <3 store.steampowered.com/news/app/334...
Variable fonts. #pixelcomposer GameMaker didn't have a native support for it so I have to make an extension wrapping FreeType. Still look weird with anti-aliased.
Finally beat Ace Combat 8. Been playing these games since 4 as a kid on the PS2 and god damn if 8 isn't the best story they've ever done. Insane missions. Awesome characters. Actual sincerity in the story and dialogue. It was nice to see a game that just decided "what if we go all in on feels".
Hello everyone. This is Mckensie with a little something, well, interesting. So, you guys remember these games like Kitchens sinc and Sammy center? Who remembers these? Well, i am planning to make a new game that's like these, but better! I am planning on calling it MP game center. Also, in my game, I'm bringing self voicing back! Classic self voicing! You might think that the game is going to use my voice! Well, yes, but there's a slight twist. You can have it use my voice, but, shocker? No, other, game, has done this before! And i mean, no, other, game, has! Well, um, no other game i've seen. You might ask, Mckensie, what are you going to do?

Well, i'm going to pull a mountbatten brailler over here, from like back then, if you know you know, and have it able to use Double talk as well. Catch? If you want to use that voice, if i add a tutorial, you'll have to finish it. Not that hard, right. There are 2 ways I can do this. Create 2 files, wav or ogg, of the way it says things differently, or, somehow, embed the TTS Engine into the game? Which, not sure about that one. I mean if RC systems don't exist no more then there is no reason why not? And also like i said, this is something, no, other game dev has ever done. So it's kinda a new idea if you will, but moddled after other things in 1. The first game I have an idea for is, a platform game. This also partially takes ideas from SBYW and Tomb hunter. But, there can be collisions and, all types of other stuff, you don't want happening to you. Needless to say, a platform can land ontop of you and crush you. So yeah my idea of it's an interesting little mess. And I might add acheevements too.
I think that my main purpose in game design is to make people feel like they're playing with an interactive drawing. I might lean in on Plaine Star's manga inspirations for 2, visually simplifying the color palette for everything except for key visuals to grayscale and monochrome.
One week in, and after a great start we're spitting distance from the Developmental Edits stretch goal. Dev edits are essential to making a game easy to pick up, easy to play, and accessible to as many players as possible. And for a game aimed at new players—especially mystified parents whose children want to get into this RPG thing—thats doubly important! So please consider helping (pledge, boost) Portal Witch become as awesome (and clear) as it can be! kickstarter.com/projects/miria… #PortalWitch
I've been playing my DSi so much the past month, and recently switched over to my N3DS for a shiny hunt. Man... The 3DS has a way shorter battery life than the DSi. I don't know if it's just mine, or in general, but I'd get like 10 hours on DSi and only maybe 3ish on my N3DS.
RPG tip: Choose one of the players as the "caller" who facilitates discussions and speaks for the group. #dnd #ttrpg
I'm still thinking about the announced Conjuring video game, which means it was time to bring my old paranormal investigator OC Phoebe Nowhere and her very tiny haunted doll out of storage.
What drives YOU to participate in the #LudumDare game jam? For me, it's being allowed to spend 48 hours just being creative, sharing it with the community, seeing what they did, and being part of something where others understand you and why what you created is as bad and wonderful as it is. #LD60
#SeasonLore #OffSeasonLore Winter in Othard, nomadic tribe. Summer in a vat in Garlemald. Autumn in a vat underwater near Hinganshi. Spring in a vat in Garlemald. Selonia born in a void. Evelyn in a vat in Garlemald. Cyrus was born in Garlemald. Allie was born in the deep shroud of the twelveswood
NASCAR Racing 4 (2001) Trailer from Papyrus. Unfortunately this trailer was created during the RealMedia phase of the internet and streaming media, so I've never seen a better quality version of it! #simracing #retrogaming #NASCAR youtu.be/lIWB7Kmcok4
I wish there were #StardewValley novels. Pokémon has novels. Magic the Gathering has novels. Warhammer has novels. I know those are waaay bigger franchises and Stardew is an indie game but surely there's SOME kind of market for cozy fantasy farming novels? 🥺
With Unity further leaning into AI slop, a good time for #GameDev to check out godotengine.org/
I just remembered, there is a bit in the CRYCHIC flashback in GBP where Sakiko mentions being close to Taki's older sister Maki, which isn't in the anime and, I noticed as well, isn't in Our Notes. So no, it isn't just the same script reused between games. So that answers one question.
Dropping a late-night update for just the GDExtensions. Heavily inspired by Maaack's cool Godot Plugin Updater, it overhauls the plug-in updating process with a much cleaner interface and no more panels. Snag it in the usual places! Well, Codeberg for now, but should be live on the Asset Lib and Asset Store tomorrow.
There is one thing I love most about demoing The Final Cut of Lilith Cunningham. There is a moment in the demo when players’ heads whip around confused. Like they’ve seen a ghost. I can’t tell you why. It’d ruin it. And it won’t happen when you’re playing by yourself at home. 😂
The folk ballads of the people are coming to life. The dead walk, dragons rise, and authorities condemn innocents to die. It’s up to you, armed with your ballad magic, to decipher each song and keep people safe. Check out our one-shot in the Ballad Hunters #ttrpg below! happyjacks.org/os41/
The replay's How to watch button knows what screen it is on. On a touch screen it explains tapping a player, looking around the court with two fingers, the timeline and the buttons, and leaves out the keyboard keys a phone does not have. #indiegame #sportsviz #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamedev #hoops
It's #WIPWednesday which means I want to see all the #TTRPG stuff you're working on this week! Show me your work in progress; 🐲 #dnd #Pathfinder, and indie RPG content 🎨 TTRPG Art 🎲 Accessories 🚫 No AI though!
It's the State of the Hat with our Director of Projects Sean Nittner! Previewing the Rangers of a Broken World #ttrpg plus updates on Designers & Dragons Origins, Blades '68, Umdaar, Tian Deng, AGON: Realms of Khaos and much more youtube.com/watch?v=CUIfRuZLUv8
(shadowbringers spoilers + endwalker spoilers) phel has a number of scars that can't be properly portrayed in game (and are usually covered by clothes anyway). first: during ShB, when the light aether started to "burst" out (eg after mt gulg), it left burn-like scars all over his body.
I am writing this project in my spare time, just like all my other hobby #gamedev. I love ECS because it allows you to systematize and separate/parallelize logic/data, move each part of the game into its own system, customize its operation, and generalize logic for entities with different components. As for speed, it will vary on different computers. You can play around with main.odin, and see the benchmarks (I use this code for testing). github.com/helioscout/moecs
Why haven't they made a Crash Bandicoot racing game called Car Crash?
I watched them launch a Vanillaware game on Steam for me at the Marvelous JP office and then handed me a controller to play it.
That's some hella productive 2 weeks on Logistik 😄 I'll probably slow down updates for the remaining of October, but still, I'm happy, it's very satisfying to see the game evolve c: #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #trains #demo #steam
you can play boardgames like role playing games and you can play role playing games like boardgames so ‘boardgames’ and ‘roleplaying games’ are really more like stances of play rather than different products
btw since i get this question a lot: buying on itch means we get almost 150% as much money from your purchase compared to buying on steam
Now streaming the development of my Colony Sim + RPG videogame "AVE VIRIATE"! ⚒️🤖⚔️ Task system is well underway, but still needs tweaks and fixes (especially of a nasty bug I found out about yesterday)! So, let's get to it! Come join me! www.twitch.tv/sorcerystory #gamedev #indiedev #godotengine
The next metro game drops early this year. If you like shooters, these are some of the best. After beating Exodus this year, I'm certain this trilogy is an all timer. Getting this many games that are this high quality for so cheap is legally categorized as theft in most countries.
NOw that I look at it, there's not a lot that cannot be reproduced in vanilla other than the packed T1/T2 belt outputs and the iron gear output inserters. The latter can be easily fixed by adding a lane swapper and the former can be probably unpacked in a smarter way but other than that, it's almost vanilla compatible.
Finally had a chance to check out the SD Skyborne model & it's very cool from the classic perspective. Especially since we've not had the SD models for elves ever since DH got freed from prison so they're a particularly welcome sight for old model enthusiasts.
CONTROL RESONANT has blown my mind twice now. There are some remarkable puzzles and when you get a new power, it feels like the game completely changes shape suddenly.
Cozy Country comes with a river sample scene, so you can jump right in if you don't feel like building from scratch, and you can also back up your save files to disk. It's 20% off during the Steam Autumn Sale ($5.59, reg. $6.99) store.steampowered.com/app/469…
The issue with installing a bunch of old games on a new computer is having to get them working. Is DGVoodoo going to work today? Is there some weird registry thing I need to do? Oh wait, it has safedisc! Maybe the multiplayer only wants to show serial ports today. It's endless! But fun.
Tomorrow at 0930ish EST I'm going to host a extra spoooky 3D modeling live stream! I'll focus on the spookiest mini requests from my Patreon Request Board so expect some scary and random minis! Tune in here: twitch.tv/mz4250 But be warned.. the stream might be so spooky you could DIIIIEEEEE!
just did the eternal fire's shadow quest while being like 8 levels behind it, that shit felt GOOOOOOOOOOOOD. casting the miasmal out in real time while being attacked by what is essentially phase 1 is so cool
Hi! We are Ngong Club, a tiny 3D asset studio in Thailand. Our first pack is out: Lazy Sunday Props, 12 cozy retro living room props for your game (FBX, GLB and BLEND), made in Blender. Three more are free if you want to try them first. ngongclub.itch.io/lazy-sunday-… #gamedev #indiedev #blender #gameassets #introduction
Hearing about wadas cat passing is making me feel Something bc my cat died while I was playing through fe8 the first time and it was helpful in a way bc it's a story about accepting loss and grief and what happens when you don't so it's weird we have this connection now.
Perfect timing! I will facilitate Microscope Chronicle on sunday and will most certainly mention the kickstarter. 😎 #pnpde #ttrpg
I was pressured into playing league of legends once, and I view it as a valuable experience in that I learned MOBAs are ontologically evil
Unfortunately I ran into some technical difficulties for yesterday's stream so that will be rescheduled. I apologize for the lack of retro gaming rants. :dragnhappy: There should be some opportunity to make it up tomorrow, so stay tuned! :dragnheart:
I mean they are also games. That is a pretty significant thing. Like I understand where you're coming from here but they very much are games.
It is a mixed stream tonight! I am kicking things off with a quick match or two of Company of Heroes with friends, and then I'm shifting gears into a cozy, down-to-earth crafting stream. I will be pulling back the curtain and showing some behind-the-scenes looks at my projects. Come hang out! Watch live: twitch.tv/cheshire_ge #CompanyOfHeroes #Crafting #Crochet #Twitch #Gaming
