👑MOUNTAIN KINGS3⃣3⃣4⃣👑 Submission: SATAN - Court in the Act 🇬🇧 (1983) A standout NWOBHM release, CITA blends intricate riffing, soaring vocals, and a darker, more technical edge than many of its peers. Sharp, energetic, and a deserved cult Heavy Metal classic. #MK334👑
Getting used to Dwarf Fortress ASCII more than a decade ago did something virtuous to my brain and I think more people should experience it, yet it's rather hard to justify.
Effulgence RPG is a 5–7 hour party-based RPG with ASCII-inspired 3D visuals, tactical turn-based combat, and a crafting system using defeated enemies as resources. 🏆 90% of 60 reviews ▶️ See it on Steam ($14.99) #steam #pcgaming #gaming #steamgame
Effulgence RPG 1.0 is out now! After more than two years of solo development, the full game is finally here. I created its ASCII visuals by hand and programmed the game myself. Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3302080/... #indiegame #rpg #ascii #indiedev

Tim Graham Games@timgames.bsky.social · 3w agoLove to see a new update for @somestinkydude.bsky.social’s superb Angband variant, ZMAngband, which traces a genealogy all the way back to 1985 (and further if you count Rogue and its influences!) jose-machete.itch.io/zmangband-me...

#ZMAngband #traditionalroguelikes #roguelikedev charging/pushing/headbutting mechanics rewritten. Trial phase going good, one more step into immersion+roleplaying+fun :)) Next weekend will be updating this variant! Stay tuned!
Coding is an artform the same way drawing and making music are. If you use genAI to assist you with your code, you are just as bad as if you were using it to make art assets or music for your game. If you can't code, team up with someone who can. Or fucking learn.
👑MOUNTAIN KINGS3⃣2⃣9⃣👑 Submission: IN FLAMES - Colony 🇸🇪(1999) Building on the foundations of Melodic Death Metal, Colony combines memorable guitar harmonies and focused songwriting. Energetic and influential, it captures the band in a rich period of creativity. #MK329👑
