I've been working on a level editor mod for Baby Steps called Baby Blocks over the past month or so, it's a few days out from releasing along with some awesome levels made by friends. I've even got collaborative editing with the multiplayer mod! It's my last project before serving a two year mission
New update for the Baby Steps Multiplayer Mod! Steam networking means you can easily host your own lobbies and invite your friends. This is pretty experimental, so please let me know what issues you come across! Check it out on GitHub or Thunderstore. Level Editor peeks coming soon.
Oh nice, they made the @despelote.game GDC talk free! Awesome talk - 99% of attendees rated it ‘excellent’ gdcvault.com/play/1035816...

Gabe's Baby Steps GDC level design talk just got set to free - obviously I'm biased but the session feedback scores were also off the charts. Recommended: gdcvault.com/play/1035806...

'Baby Steps' is a 3D hiking game with a vast open world created by a very small team. While the world is completely fixed, exploring and curating undesigned random levels was an integral part of the c...

Just finished my last exam at good ol' FCC, such a beautiful campus and I made lots of friends here. Excited to be graduating nonetheless!
Native UI implementation of my @babystepsgame.bsky.social multiplayer mod. Great for controller support, and I'll release the library I made for custom UI stuff soon after this update releases!
Bluesky decided that monkeylicker is an unacceptable handle so I've changed it to my name lol
Someone modded their VTuber character into Baby Steps! There's a nexusmods link in there in case anyone else wants to figure out how to do the same thing with other models <3 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jsou...

Does anyone have recommendations for text adventure games that are more than a choose your own adventure book, that do some interesting game-y things? I can't find a good compendium of them like Roguebasin for roguelikes

It's #OeufGame launch day! To celebrate I'll be attempting a FULL GAME speed run at twitch.tv/therealdyer TONIGHT from 19:30 UK time.
I loved playing Oeuf, its levels play a lot more with the geometry of the egg shape than you'd think possible and it's perfect at building suspense and then releasing it. The music is great and the game feels very mysterious. The level editor is lots of fun and multiplayer is well implemented!

A favorite evening past time of mine recently is joining multiplayer to stalk from a distance and using fly cam to make them look like ants. It's strangely endearing seeing a gaggle of Nates fumbling up the mountain using each other for support.
Never met anybody who played these games. Curious to see some more obscure ones!
post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers, and which also rules
It's been really cold so I haven't gone on a walk in a good bit. Very snotty and teary walk, but got some decent photos. My favorite big tree by a stream was out in the open with all of the leaves missing, so I didn't visit it.
New Baby Steps Multiplayer Mod update with lots of fixes and new features! Mainly water wheels are now synced up and servers can use webhooks now to let others know someone is online. Various proximity chat network performance tweaks too. github.com/caleborchard...

@ohheyitsjeffm.bsky.social describes how I feel about Baby Steps amazingly in this video, I've never been able to word it but Gabe and Bennett have heard much from me how it's changed my whole perspective on games. Everything about it is beautiful, every aspect contributes to its artfulness.

Very large but had my first opportunity to play one of @terrycavanaghgames.com's games, Egg is great! Very good movement, amazingly good level design, and super cute art. I'm glad a soundtrack was released because it's terrific as well. Egg games may be the move with Oeuf from @increpare.bsky.social
It's been really entertaining seeing someone named MIKE HAWK faithfully log onto my Baby Steps multiplayer mod server every day for the past month
