From my Nordic/INDIGO talk on picking the right game - a talk that also dives into how much of a liability a lot of publishers have become to devs in general. There are still plenty of "good ones" and "OK ones" out there, but the "publeecher" wave right now is very real.

I'm happy to announce that Block Shop will be part of the upcoming @puzzleshowcase.bsky.social on Steam. If you haven't already tried the game, it will be a fantastic opportunity to get it! 📅 The showcase will take place May 29th - June 5. #puzzlegames #indiegames #gamedev #indiedev #godot

Yuuuuuup. Ideas have never been the issue. The key is picking which ones are worth writing about, and which are worth writing will change with the specific author. I wrote a whole fucking novel about the moon turning to cheese. I assure you, ideas are the easy part. Execution is what matters.

I'm slightly tired... #IndieGameDev

PSA the demo for Replicube is still available, it’s just not a giant button on the Steam page, it’s a little tasteful button on the right:

Something I wish gamers everywhere understood about indie games is that if the devs stopped actively updating it while it could have used more love, it's likely because it wasn't selling enough and they had to do something else to keep themselves fed.

We interviewed Frederic Plourde and Daniel Castellanos who used Godot to create an educational XR experience for SOMAR, a non-profit association focusing on the conservation of marine life 🐬 godotengine.org/article/godo...
