I attended the Queensland Games Festival a few weeks ago and didn’t really say anything about it so I figured I’d do a quick thread on some of the cool local game makers and their games

A few weeks ago, Fantasy Town Regional Manager was awarded honourable mention at the Freeplay Awards. The Caps team put together a zine page for the event about the game, featuring a few of our favourite jokes and a few new ones too!

The other week I decided to add an asset packing system to my C++ game engine, Siege, and so I thought it might be fun to do a writeup on my process as well as all the cursed things it does that will keep me up at night. Enjoy! #cpplus #cpp #gamedev #opensource #programming #gameengine

Hi, #gamedev, I’m a gameplay engineer living up in Brisbane, Australia! I’m also part of the @capscollective.com team, having released Fantasy Town Regional Manager, a satirical town-builder. I'll post some combination of goofs and dev stuff for the things we're working on in Godot, Unreal, and C++

Sydney folks, we’re showing off our little game about dumplings next weekend 🥟 Getting distracted and overhearing conversations is a big part of the game, so a live event’s the perfect way to play it!

Look at all these games! Psyched to have received honourable mention for FTRM, and proud to see so many of our friends nominated, including our Sydney pals, @fuzzyg.host, for not one but THREE nominations! If you're in Melbourne and can make it, Freeplay knows how to put on a good show!

With mere hours left in the year, I managed to write up the blog post I'd been threatening to do for a while on how the @capscollective.com team is using GitHub Actions to build, test, and publish our open-source Godot 4 projects at no cost. Take a tour of our indie-grade build pipeline automation!
