My top 10 roguelikes of the year so far (in no particular order): Slay the Spire 2 Pathogenic The Loopler Shroom and Gloom Batomon Showdown Moonlighter 2 Echoes of Mystralia Everything is Crab Cursed Words Winnie's Hole It has been a great year for some surprise hits/hidden gems in the genre!

Hades 2 made me pivot my career into indie game music, and it got me hooked on @haelian1.bsky.social videos. His video on The Loopler demo in February made me fall in love with the game, so I asked @mheepdev.bsky.social if I could make its music. Now he's streaming it on launch day. ❤️ #gamedev

This will be posting on Friday on The Loopler's steam page and some other places too! It ended up at 55 seconds plus a little stinger, so uh, yeah about a minute and three seconds. But hey at least it's cut to the beat of the music!

I'm making the release date trailer for the game I'm working on, and I'm wondering what's the ideal length? It's a score-attack roguelite. 45 seconds or is a full minute fine? #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

I commissioned Angus Jewkes to draw me a pfp and banner and he absolutely cooked. I gave him some Moogfest posters as references and a mood board of the colors I like, and he took it from there. atjartwork.artstation.com #gameart #illustration #indegames #gamedev

Yeah so Meaningless Random Numbers from @nikkoguy.bsky.social is every bit as good as people have been saying. One of the best start-to-end experiences I've had in a demo, regardless of genre.

"As a person asking for sympathy, I used AI in a way I don't have to disclose so that I appear honest, while the big things I do have to disclose are just swept under the rug of ambiguity!" - an AI disclosure written by AI. Hit me up if you have a great AI-less game. #gamedev #indiedev

What's the best way to find new-ish demos within a certain genre/style on steam? Right now the only way I know is to go to a game I like, go to 'more like this' and then scroll down to upcoming and hope there's a demo, or scroll to free demos and hope they're newer #indiegames #roguelike #gamedev
