All "articles" I find on Soulblaze are just A/I generated reassemblies of my Steam and Press kit descriptions but the latest takes the cake with a "Junior Editor" that is holding a sword and quill in hand. Wow, you changed your profile picture just for me? Wowie. Lazy soulless content everywhere.

Seeing a nasty hacking scam going around that targets game workers - where compromised accounts ask you to test out a game, but it's a keylogger. Exact sort of thing so many indies would ask, but it's a scam - don't download it! (Hope Jupiter and others get their accounts back soon!)

AHAHAHAHA I just realized ALL the stat scaling for the enemies effectively didn't work so they all (including bosses) are at level 1 stats. No wonder the balancing felt off... 🫠 And it's been like this for a couple of weeks... 🫠🫠🫠 #gamedev #indiedev

I discovered yesterday, in a mass email sent at 3am, that I will not be receiving the roughly £40,000 that my publisher Unbound/Boundless owes me for pre-order sales of The Paradox Paradox. The payment for five years of work, gone. #unboundless

Playing Pokémon battles with ADHD is sheer agony, always waiting for all the texts and effects to finish 😀 I added a slider for battle speed, using Engine.time_scale. Crank it up to 3 times the speed. Let's goooo! #gamedev #indiedev #godot

There really isn't a better time to start working on Animon variants than during #PrideMonth! Jellmeel comes in all the pretty colors! We come in all the colors and we're beautiful. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise! #gamedev #indiedev #queerArt #soulblaze #godot

Hi there! If you're a journalist looking for demos to try for #SteamNextFest, I'd be over the moon if you consider trying Soulblaze 💜 It's a creature-collecting roguelite with hand-drawn art and dice mechanics. 👉 Steam 👉 Presskit #Gamedev #Indiedev #MadeWithGodot
