I wish pirate games would become trendy again. 🥲

"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!
Pattern Pack Extra is out now! ✨ 80+ more seamless vector patterns for use in your games (or any projects) for free. Works well as textures, in UI or as VFX! kenney.nl/assets/patte... (CC0, public domain)
As long as you're enjoying drawing that's all that matters

Tom Waters - Shallow Thinking Games@shallowthinking.bsky.social · 4d agoCouple of screens from the demo level for my most recent urban-themed retro texture set. If you want to make some exteriors of grotty alleyways, dismal little offices, awful flats or workshops, I got you covered. shallowthinking.itch.io/ultra-urban-... #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #quake

Just picked this pack up for an amazing price and I'm gonna use it to make some late-era DOS game asset ideas I have brewing 🥳

Thank you I feel incredibly old thinking about my windows 98 PC that could play Counter-Strike flawlessly in 2002 or whatever without any sort of GPU and barely any ram But now that same PC would choke to death trying to run an 16bit game made in RPG Maker
I was thinking of a prohibition era speak-easy approach to this where, if an AI scraper comes along, you flick a switch and all the delicious content revolves away into the walls and turns into thousands of pages of Lorem Ipsem interspersed with false information to poison the training data.
Jamie D ➡️Gamescom@uk-resistant.bsky.social · 6d agoThinking of self hosting a web site with the caveat that the site is only live when my PC is on and that seems like having a shop with open/close times and yes, I like this idea
One level requires Dagada to swim underwater 🤿 Naou, on the other hand, isn't too fond of water... You'll have to find another way to explore the level ! #indiedev #indiegame #madewithunity
On track for a new textures day tomorrow, as is tradition. New urban set, natch! The new stuff is in the same style as, and designed to be mega compatible with shallowthinking.itch.io/downtown-dys... but fully self-contained, and a bit more backways/alleys. #indiedev #gamedev #gameart #gamedesign

Someone told me games need "unique selling points" or something, so screw it Fighter jet game where you send your squadron and supporting officers ice cream #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #NovaSquadron
Adobe Photoshop 5.5 (1999). It had everything we need, and it still runs on Windows 11.
I spent quite a long time on the beaches and waves in Thunder Helix. I think they turned out rather well. 🚁 🌊 #gamedev #lowpoly #pixelart store.steampowered.com/app/1906230/...
🎉🎉🎉 Big announcement! I'm incredibly excited to finally share this with you: the very first Steam demo for Dagada's Story will be available on September 8! 🎮 I can't wait for you to explore the world, meet Dagada and Naou, and hear what you think! ❤️ #indiegame #gamedev #pixelart #SteamDemo

* blows dust away * -- OK I'm using this account again ! To catch you up I've been working on a multi-threaded CPU renderer that uses a Blinn-Phong lighting model, which you can see below. This is now quite feature-filled, and fairly quick, so I'm turning my attention to UI work. #retrocgi

What I noticed during Kenney Jam is that a lot of participants had issues putting together a 3D terrain quickly. So, I'll be releasing these modular terrain pieces soon. It'll allow you to slap together some models and create quick, low-poly terrain!
Setting up a new YouTube channel in 2026 is "fun". I mean I guess I am spamming, sorta. Also, no clickable links in a description until you give photo id or wait "some months" LOL, ok I'll wait 🤷♂️ Anyway - Deluxe Poly has its own Youtube channel here: www.youtube.com/@DeluxePoly
Naou's energy can awaken ancient technology hidden within the mountain. Harness its power to explore new paths and uncover forgotten secrets! ⚙️✨ #pixelart #retrogaming #screenshotsaturday
