We did say “more announcements on the way”, didn’t we? Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Definitive Edition is coming soon to GOG! 👉 bit.ly/4k3VHjX

One more piece of fantastic news! Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine Master Crafted Edition is coming soon to GOG! 👉 bit.ly/43qwj0V

Into the Restless Ruins was pretty awesome. It's totally up my alley so I just bought it. It's a vampire hunters like, Dungeon Crawler, Roguelike Deckbuilder. Would 100% recommend (or at least check out the demo).

A new structure for the overworld: magical gateways that connect distant lands, ancient ruins, and hidden realms in an instant! #gamedev #indiedev #godotengine

Terraria turns 14 today! thank you for absolutely changing my life and bringing me so much joy over the years

Into the Restless Ruins is a deckbuilder in the Scottish highlands, where you create a dungeon then battle through it. Out now on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and Steam! store.steampowered.com/app/2877770/...

A roguelike gem where you build the dungeon, then survive it. Into the Restless Ruins is a clever, addictive twist on the genre. @ant-workshop.com @walesinteractive.bsky.social #IntoTheRestlessRuins wp.me/p70tPw-oXG

New reference, sketch, pixel art and in-game! That's now my 3rd sprite for the game... At this rate, a few years and I'm done with art. Besides joking, I've been looking forever for overworld location sprites and I never found something that clicks, so DIY it is! #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart

Progress on tooltips!

Siegecaster saw its best day of sales yesterday, two days after launch. Thank you enormously to those spreading awareness through word-of-mouth & media. Fans of Steam charts will know the average is day one peak dropping into oblivion... so this is encouraging. Streamers are starting to find it.

May the 4th? Pfff, tomorrow is May the 5TH—Citizen Sleeper day! 😎

Hey mates! I just crunched some numbers and wrote a short article about the current state of the game market. Sharing my findings publicly so others can learn from them too! TL;DR: not great, but not terrible cesar-ottani.medium.com/steam-analys... #IndieGameDev #IndieDev #GameMarket #GameDev

Spent the day gathering, cleaning, and analyzing data about the gaming industry. Mainly Steam releases, since that’s my focus. Should I make a page with my findings? Things are looking dire? Yes. But is it still possible to make some money? Also yes! #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGameDev #SoloDev

Approaching Infinity has just been called "No Man's Qud": #NoMansSky + #CavesOfQud That's it right there. store.steampowered.com/app/551620/A...

Well... the publisher who was helping us since last year has decided not to sign us anymore.😭 Taking a few days off to process this. It's pretty devastating, but that's just how it is.😢 Might share my thoughts about the whole ordeal when I get back. For now need to Rest...🥺

Everything about this scene -- the obsequious lickspittle kissing Trump's ass, the wildly optimistic Fox News chyron, even the stupid little hats promoting Trump's saddest achievement of the first hundred days -- feels like a Make a Wish event for a dying presidency.

Guns are not enough for you? Use demonic powers to defeat your enemies! #WishlistWednesday #roguelike #turnbased #gamedev

Hello #WishlistWednesday! =] Help a #SoloDev out, mate! My game’s this close 🤏 to hitting 50 glowing reviews. Players are loving it, and we just need a little boost to spread the word! ▶️Check it out: store.steampowered.com/app/2586000 #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGameDev #TurnBased

Going through some Steam and game data myself. Doing a deep dive into how many games were released, revenue estimates, and feasibility. Using SteamDB, VG Insights, and the Revenue Calculator. Might post the numbers here when I’m done. #IndieDev #SoloDev #GameDev

@stupidskull.com Hey man, I'm reaching out to folks because my life's work, Approaching Infinity released today, and I know you're into multi-decade roguelike passion projects :D You played it once, here it is again: store.steampowered.com/app/551620/A...

I just released my 12-year labor of love project "Approaching Infinity" on Steam. It's the 90s space game you always wanted, inspired by sci-fi classics like Star Trek, B5, and Star Control. Please re-post and share 😉 store.steampowered.com/app/551620/A...

Hi Bluesky, could really use your help 🙏🙏 We just launched our latest game Starless Abyss - the exact week that Oblivion was shadow-dropped. Which has been *not fantastic* for our launch If anyone can spare a RT, that would be so, so helpful ❤️❤️ Find it here: store.steampowered.com/app/3167970/...

Old Skies is here! And I’m in it!!! I’m in a WadjetEye game 🥹 You can hear me doing what I do best — American infomercial reads — as Madison Bates 💁‍♀️ Huge congratulations to @wadjeteyegames.bsky.social and everyone involved. I can’t wait to bawl my eyes out ❤️

Went through an ordeal of trying to implement Steam Workshop on my game yesterday. Spent 12h building a POC with no complete docs, no guides, no errors, just silence. Had to dive into arcane configs and piece everything together like cursed IKEA instructions. 🧵 #IndieDev #SoloDev #GameDev

Talking with players is one of the best parts of this journey. Most are amazing and full of great ideas. But once in a blue moon, I get an unhinged type who posts everywhere, send me direct emails, make wild feature requests… and didn’t even buy the game. Don’t be that guy. 😓 #IndieDev #SoloDev

Heyyy BlueSky. I’m releasing a game tomorrow that’s taken me 4+ years to make and I’m trying to stop myself from vibrating through the floor with anxiety. AMAs still seem to be a thing, so let’s do one to distract me. For the next however long, ASK ME STUFF. I shall answer.
