I'm super excited to share that I've been nominated for a Black In Gaming award and I didn't even vote for myself 😅 . A lot of people I really admire and respect have either won one of these or have been nominated so this means a lot ! Thanks @blackingaming.bsky.social #bigawards2025

Hi new followers! I'm Sherveen, I'm making Midautumn! It's a roguelike dungeon crawler about a town reckoning with the (literal) ghosts of its past! When guarding the spirit world is your day job, you'll need to face ghosts, myths, and evil CEOs! We're currently in early access on Steam!

MEGA Engine progress: I've just finished the enemy respawning feature. There are three possible behavior: on out of view (shown below), on changing screen or never respawn! Changing the behavior is as easy as selecting it from a list! #gamemaker #indiedev #gamedev

Fellow indie devs, what do you use to promote your game early in development? I feel Bsky can be nice to talk dev to dev, but I wonder what platforms work the best for reaching early adopting players. Are mailing lists still a thing, or are Social Media platforms the way to go? #indiedev #gamedev

Random moments in #gameaudio that I like: In Inside (Playdead, 2016) after the shockwave sequence, a flourescent light you pass will turn off during the shock and come back on after a brief while and clink in tune with the music. Environmental audio synergy. A personal favourite in game audio.

“Is it okay for a social media platform to be an echo chamber” back in the day we had websites and websites were generally focused on a single topic and if you were into that topic you would visit that website and if you weren’t into that topic you just didn’t go on that website and it was fine

#Balatro is now rated 18+ 🃏 The game's creator fires back: "Since PEGI gave us an 18+ rating for having evil playing cards, maybe I should add microtransactions, loot boxes, and real gambling to lower that rating to 3+ like EA Sports FC"

Oh hey, I should probably post my portfolio. I am an artist and a teacher from Maine with a fascination for big videogame worlds. Really really really big worlds. Like, I mean it, REALLY big. Anyway, uh, hi! rimkunas.artstation.com

I went from a passionate game lover who just wished I had the make a chance to work on a single game to having worked on dozens, having friends who work on the games that inspire me now and in the past, and being able to lecture and help navigate their own game career dreams. I'm blessed

It's been over two weeks and these are still on the eShop. Nintendo hasn't responded to any of our reports of these egregious scams which are using our trademarked game name and purposely tricking Nintendo customers into buying cheap fakes.
