Damn. I just realised I'm depressed lol. (The lol is loadbearing. Please let me have it. Just this once)

We've come so far. This update is essentially a remake lol "The descent has begun. From this point onward, everything will change" ~Rapid Roll DX v1.5.0 Get ready to play as Red, Sol, Sky and Gleep soon! #gamedev #solodev #indiedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #screenshotsaturday #pixelart #Defold

Its yet another #screenshotsaturday fellow #indiedev I was to publish Rapid Roll DX on Monday but the game needed more polish. I have lots of small changes here and there yet to be implemented due to an ongoing blackout but it will be available soon :D #defold #madewithdefold #pixelart #gamedev

I knew I was forgetting something! #screenshotsaturday #solodev

The main menu I always envisioned for Rapid Roll DX now has come to life! (ParticleFX still need to reflect the other characters but will cross that bridge when we get there :D) #gamedev #solodev #indiedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #pixelart #Defold

I got hosted at a podcast yesterday evening by @fontty.bsky.social and I ended up answering 3 questions because I was yapping so much 🤣😭 Its a podcasts about game devs by a game dev, for gamedevs I had fun. #solodev #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame

Its 148am. I just had a fever nightmare that unless I wore the same clothes "seed" I was wearing before the cold that I would die/never wake up. I woke up shouting the Harland themesong. Yeah, for real. Drank my bottle of water like I have been trekking the Sahara for millennia.

I think the universe is playing a joke on me. I was about to finish some art for the final chapter of my game, Left On Read, a visual novel for the Toxic Yuri Jam but I have a cold. Hopefully I'm better in the morning. #gamedev #solodev #indiegamedev

I've been tinkering with the cinematic intro for months. Time to show it here. This is the first thing the player sees when starting a new game. I'm trying to start the story and give the player a "why". Let's me know what you think. Sound: On 🔊 #indiegame #gamedev #sologamedev s.team/a/3470490

#gamedev got a game that's 2-6 months away from launch? drop it in the replies 👀 I am hosting a podcast thingy - short dev conversations about upcoming games, looking for guests! #indiedev #indiegame #solodev

I think I should be posting more frequently... I just got followed by Only Fans accounts back to back in the past month #gamedev #solodev #indiegamedev #indiegame

Rapid Roll DX got a last minute update for Google Play's 16KB and API 36 requirements. New content is available, but with the old music system since I havent finished 2 tracks for Survival and Twirly Ball modes, as well as the medley for the Attract Mode/Trailer #gamedev #solodev #indedev #Defold

Today I said goodbye to Mika. After an infection caused during mating season, She couldn't be treated and was bleeding too much. She was put down. It has been a wonderful 10 years with her by my side. StarBirth Researcher EX will be dedicated to her. I love her a lot. bsky.app/profile/oner...

Another Dump!

I have joined 4 game jams this year and I haven't managed to push a game to any of them. How do you deal with this failure feeling? I Feel incompetent. #solodev #indiedev #gamedev

I've been deep in the Pixel Perfect Rendering rabbit hole in #Defold. I forgot how euphoric it feels when you implement a game mechanic. Implemented a Rail Cannon in place of the Base Bomb and tomorrow will do a Shield Burst Mechanic for Astro Impact! De_Make #gamedev #solodev #indiedev #indiegame

Gallery Unlocks Done! #gamedev #solodev #indiedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #Defold #screenshotsaturday #pixelart

Back in December 2023, I replaced my laptop fan because it was too noisy. I placed the old one in a drawer and as of 2 weeks ago, my replacement fan became too noisy. I dont have any money so I swapped it with the old one. It has whisper levels of noise. Years of inactivity probably fixed it.

I'm happy to announce that both Rapid Roll DX and Astro Impact! De_Make in Defold have full controller support on Android! (Tested with a Dualshock 4) #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #screenshotsaturday #Defold #pixelart #solodev

Astro Impact! De_Make is now 3 years old. I made a post going through the history and the future as well as teasers for what's to come... Take a gander: oneredeyedev.itch.io/astro-impact... #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #indiegamedev #Defold #indiegame #pixelart

Astro Impact! De_Make is now 3 years old!!!

Originally made in Unity, then the game launched made in Godot in just a week of development for Nokia Game Jam 5, the final step is upon us... (I genuinely wanted to make the update live today but ci...

You want #cozy #wholesome games, why not try #AThousandBees? It will release on April 8th. Play the #demo now on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4281370/... #miat #nextfest #snf #indiedev #solodev #spiele #zocken #gemütlich #hygge #freedemo #womeningames

Did a "soft" rework of how graphics in my game are handled, from tile sources to an atlas. More than 128 sprites exported and reimported. Took me 4 days! Saved a single Draw call lol #Defold #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #solodev #pixelart Did a test to see a difference in size... 4.44MB!!!

Would you believe me if I told you this took around 3 weeks to fully implement? #screenshotsaturday #Defold #gamedev #indiegame #indiegamedev #indiedev #pixelart #onebit Also, Graphic Design isn't a Hobby, It's a Lifestyle.

Exactly a year ago, 31/01/25, I launched my first Defold and Commercial game, Rapid Roll DX. Because of that game, y'all were able to give me a second chance. I am truly grateful. Thank you, again, always. RRDX & AIDM are getting updates soon~ish #gamedev #solodev #indiedev #indiegamedev #Defold

My games, Rapid Roll DX and Astro Impact! De_Make were featured in the Defold Game Engine 2025 Showreel! Feels nice that I even showed the family back home 😁 #gamedev #solodev #indiedev #indiegamedev #pixelart #indiegame youtu.be/XCgJ3T-_1oE

Lifted my leg to scratch my lower thigh and the cat sleeping on top of my thighs didnt move. Yep 2026 is gonna be a good year

Happy New Year from Kenya. Look forward to my projects and I also look forward to playing y'all games and interacting with your creations <3

What the hell is going on with the solo dev discourse?

As the year ends, I can only describe it with one word: busy. So many things to work on, so little time. Im sorry for promising updates and failing to deliver, but trust me, Im working on it. I'd also like to thank all of you, again and always. Thank you. I can type this because of y'all #solodev
