#gamedev After listening to Sarah Shipp's latest advice on theming (on the Ludology podcast) I'm trying my hand in writing a more thematic description for my card game. Old vs. new below. Any feedback and criticism to improve welcome! store.steampowered.com/app/3355940/...

A custom ability I just drafted in-game in Card Coder. I think it's a good sign that I'm starting to enjoy playing the game as much as I enjoy developing it :) Steam link: store.steampowered.com/app/3355940/... #screenshotsaturday #indiegames

Το Card Coder είναι ένα Roguelike Deck-Builder/ Card Battler, διαφορετικό από οποιοδήποτε άλλο game του είδους κυκλοφορεί τώρα στην αγορά! Ο Maximilian Scherer, καθηγητής Πληροφορικής και #indiedev, το αναπτύσσει βασιζόμενος σε μία πρωτοποριακή ιδέα. @prof-scherer.com #indiegame #deckbuilder

Steam should increase the number of "Recent Reviews" from 10 to 20 or even 50. Right now, you can get the dreaded yellow "Mixed" label if just 4 out of 10 reviews in the last 30 days are negative. Though that is statistically perfectly normal for a "Very Good" overall rating around 85%. #gamedev

Started adding some more personality to the cards in my card-building roguelike Card Coder. #WishlistWednesday #indiegames store.steampowered.com/app/3355940/...

"Undo" button (upper right in the video) for my card-building roguelite Card Coder. Thoughts? (besides the fact that all my cards use the same artwork atm) #gamedev #deckbuilding store.steampowered.com/app/3355940/...

Happy #TurnBasedThursday ! Surprisingly few games in the #deckbuilding #roguelike genre actually play like a #cardbattler. So I'm developing exactly that in Card Coder: store.steampowered.com/app/3355940/... #gamedev #indiegames

Does Indie Sunday still work to promote games in early development? Only one way to find out: www.reddit.com/r/Games/comm... #gamedev #indiegames

My debut title JOY OF PROGRAMMING has just left Early Access and version 1.0 is now available (and is featured as a Daily Deal at 30% off to celebrate the occasion). store.steampowered.com/app/2216770/... #gamedev #indiegames

I'd like to officially announce my second game! Card Coder is a novel card-building roguelike where you create your own custom cards out of 10 billion possibilities. Full trailer and wishlist on Steam store.steampowered.com/app/3355940 #TrailerTuesday #gamedev #indiegames

An experiment. Can you like this post if (and only if) you play and buy video games. Some people over on Twitter/X seem to think it's only game developers here. (reposts welcome to spread the word)

I have this entirely unfounded theory: The Valve employee that reviews your game's Steam page has a button called "Potentially Interesting" to give your page a nice little initial boost to see if the recommender picks up on it or not. #gamedev

During the day I'm a CS professor teaching programming. At night I'm an indiedev programming games about programming. Unsurprisingly my first game on Steam is called JOY OF PROGRAMMING. Sooo, anyone wanna talk about programming?
