I just learned about the funny phenomenon of HIGHSCORE INFLATION: Since the beginning of arcades, pinball machines and video games competed for player attention by engaging in an arms race of having the game with the bigger highscore numbers. #gamedesign #gamedev #retrogaming #arcade #pinball

Well here a game idea: You're the craftsman who has to maintain and repair the gear of the heroes returning from the quest. Sharpen the sword, restring the bow, fit the axe to a new handle, rebind the spellbook, relink the chainmail, patch up the boots, off you go! Next! #gameidea #gamedesign

If you can't beat a game in one sitting, just get a standing desk.

How do you feel about the game mechanic "Item Durability"? (The item breaks after a certain number of uses and must be either repaired or replaced) #gamedesign

Well, that gives me a silly idea: What if a game's savefile was an actual item you could pick up in the game?

Valve releases the full sourcecode of #TF2 to the public. Good move after the game had many years without updates and maintenance! www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=... The sourcecode also reveals a tiny bit of #opensource #Godot code in it! (Lights) www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/02/valv... #gamedev

The quality of flashlights in video games are inversely correlated with the spookiness of the genre. Why does every horror game protagonist go exploring the haunted house using the dimmest possible flashlight with 10 minutes of battery life?

I made my first plugin in Godot! Signal Lens allows you to visually debug a node's signal connections while testing your game. It's out now in the Godot Asset Library and my Github: github.com/yannlemos/Si... #GodotEngine #SignalLens #godot #gamedev #plugin #indiedev #debugger

PSA: #Youtube links to #Bluesky will flag some profiles as harmful, urging the user to not follow the link. As far as I can tell, it seems to be all profiles with ".com" in their username, which covers plenty of large accounts, including most US companies and media.

I find it a bit funny how #Steam bundles interact with sales. It can lead to a game's store page presenting as "Instead of saving the old boring 10%, you now have the limited opportunity to save 9%! 😁👍"
