#GMTK2026 Day 4: The last day consisted of making 5 more levels, adding trees, performance optimization, and exporting for both HTML5 and Windows. Play "Chicken(s) X ROAD" on itch! jakebarnes.itch.io/cxr #gamedev #GMTK #indiedev #madewithgodot #gamejam

#GMTK2026 Day 3: I got a lot done today! SFX and music are done. I made a cool logo 🙂 I still want to add a few more levels, but the game is in a "submit-able" state. Ending a little early today because I'm feeling a little burnt out. One more day!!!! #gamedev #GMTK #indiedev #madewithgodot #gamejam

#GMTK2026 Day 2: Spent half the day in Blender on the chicken models and animating them in Godot. I'm feeling okay about my progress, but I still have a lot to do! #gamedev #GMTK #indiedev #madewithgodot #gamejam

#GMTK2026 Day 1: I'm looking forward to seeing this game come to life, but it is going to be a challenge! I worry that I might have chosen a concept too big for 4 days. I'm also not sure it'll actually be fun... Wish me luck! #gamedev #GMTK #indiedev #madewithgodot #gamejam

You discover a video signal from an unknown source. Strange letters appear on screen. You attempt to decode the symbols from the mysterious transmission. My #LD59 entry "A L P H A" is up on itch! jakebarnes.itch.io/alpha #gamedev #ludumdare #indiedev #madewithgodot #LDjam #ludumdare59 #gamejam

oh no I’m solo-queueing ranked #marvelrivals again

#LD59 Day 3: - Added a picture of my dogs 🐾 - Added other, less important things 🙂 I'm pretty much done and happy about how it turned out! #gamedev #ludumdare #ludumdare59 #indiedev #madewithgodot #LDjam #gamejam

#LD59 Day 2: Gameplay is complete. It can be played and won. Includes a hard mode. Still needs audio, additional art and polish. Feeling good about my progress 😊

I was playing #Exit8 and just as I was contemplating whether this bunny poster had been there the whole time, it began violently shaking! lol. yep. pretty sure thats an anomaly.

Just learned about this awesome game called Dragonsweeper. It's like Minesweeper but more complicated and with a D&D theme! It's really fun! dragonsweeper.com

Screenshot of Dragonsweeper. Looks like a minesweeper board but there are monsters and items and a health bar and an xp bar.

I didn't think horror games could scare me much anymore, but I couldn't handle Amnesia: The Bunker for more than an hour at a time. It is pants-shittingly terrifying, even for horror veterans, and by far the scariest game I've ever played! 10/10. @frictionalgames.bsky.social #AmnesiaTheBunker

Just had a real spooky moment where my computer blue-screened while I was working on my game in #godot and it corrupted several files 😱 Thankfully, the affected files were all really small and easy to reproduce. I will be backing up more often 😅 #gamedev

Pretty happy with my pause menu. It was my first time making a menu that you can actually navigate using a controller! #gamedev #godot
