Throwback to One Minute Gamejam where my wife and I came up with a 1 Minute Dog Adoption game ๐Ÿคญ Wanna give it a go? You can play it on itch in your browser https://nickhatboecker.itch.io/good-boi-one-minute-jam #indiegame #indiegames #cozy #gamejam #shortgame

When I was developing my game's landing page, I totally forgot about server side rendering ๐Ÿ™ˆ We use nuxt at work & I usually avoid it. So I wanted to give it a 2nd chance. Turns out: I still don't really like it. Had to tweak a lot. I hope the site finally works ๐Ÿ™ #FindThisPixelAnomaly #webdev

Okay guys, now that I discovered GDScript linting, let's talk about why you should start linting your Godot code, too! A thread ๐Ÿงต #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #godot #godotengine

OMG there are windows 95 themed Godot themes?? ๐Ÿ˜ฑ I LOVE this! Don't have anything in mind right now but I need to build something with these >< Check it out: https://github.com/violinbg/godot-desktop-themes?tab=readme-ov-file #gamedev #godot #indiedev

I bet you played some anomaly games like Dollmare or The Cabin Factory. But have you played an anomaly game in pixel art yet? Try it out in FIND THIS PIXEL ANOMALY ๐Ÿ”Ž https://store.steampowered.com/app/3290400/Find_This_Pixel_Anomaly/ #indiegame #indiegames #horror #cozy

Visited the Titanic Exhibition in Germany and now I have this weird story idea about a girl, dreaming that the is a male passenger on the Titanic. And of course: she can't change the past but because of her dreams she finds out who that person was and uncovers some secrets in the present ๐Ÿ™ˆ ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Woah check out all these awesome Characters from Slime Boy ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ Now I wish all the intruders in my game had a cool character concept and fancy (pixelart) animations ๐Ÿฅฒ

Can't believe I missed out on linting GDScripts for so long ๐Ÿ˜ฑ Fixed all lint errors (variable names are ignored for now, hehe) and added husky for automatic linting before committing with git ๐Ÿ‘Œ Feels much more clear now! #FindThisPixelAnomaly #gamedev #indiegames #solodev

Backed this awesome idea! I hope that it can help satisfying my wife's thirst for indie games ๐Ÿ˜„

People say Find This Pixel Anomaly gives "cozy-horror" vibes, but I get why some people think that this genre is contradictory ๐Ÿ™ˆ My game is not very scary, just a tense and dark atmosphere. So how should I market it? ๐Ÿค” #indiedev #indiegames #solodev #FindThisPixelAnomaly #cozygame

UPDATE v0.0.29 - ๐Ÿ”Ž Missed anomalies will be displayed on game over (as requested by the community) - ๐ŸงŠ Cooldown for black hole & dog anomalies Details at https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/3290400/view/714486390316859421?l=german #FindThisPixelAnomaly #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

Seriously, does anybody EVER had success with Web Push Notifications?? I can't get them to work on iOS, I can't get them to work on MacOS... it's soooo frustrating ๐Ÿ˜ซ #webdev #pushnotifications #ntfy

I was busy as a bee this weekend and worked on #FindThisPixelAnomaly ๐Ÿ’ช Implemented several ideas of you guys, so thanks for recommending stuff ๐Ÿ™ #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #solodev

I know most of you disliked it, but man, I miss the Macbook Touchbar ๐Ÿฅบ Had some nifty shortcuts on this while working remotely ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Roses are red, Violets are blue. Can you find all anomalies before they get you? ๐Ÿ˜ˆ Happy Valentines Day! ๐Ÿ–ค #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #FindThisPixelAnomaly

We're sooooo close to 500 wishlists! Thank you so much ๐Ÿฅน I'm currently playing around with multiplayer and Twitch features in Godot. Maybe something suits the gameplay of #FindThisPixelAnomaly . #gamedev #indiedev #solodev

Did you know about the Multiplayer Synchronizer in Godot? I did NOT! This is such a crazy feature because you have to write only two lines of code for it! ๐Ÿ’ฅ And all your players' positions are synched. ๐Ÿคฏ docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/cl... #godot #gamedev #indiedev #solodev

OMG I finally understand multiplayer in Godot!! Thanks to this fine tutorial. Looks like I was already on the right track, just didn't understand that dedicated server thing. ๐Ÿ™ #godot #gamedev #indiedev #solodev

I used to have all my expenses in an Excel sheet. Now I have implemented a small app to improve my savings even further. The app's name (Budget Boy) and design are inspired by old Gameboy graphics. #webdev #webdesign #handytools #webapp #pwa

I thought Web Push Notifications on iOS have been implemented but I just can't get it to work with my Vue3 App, Appwrite and firebase ๐Ÿ˜ญ #webdev #ios
