Game developer working on mining roguelike Dig Dig Boom. #indiedev Stein Makes Games - using #godot! ⭐Wishlist my game: s.team/a/2026040 🥇"Game of the Year" 2023 at StartNTNU Norwegian Game Awards 🔗Links: https://linktr.ee/steinmakesgames
I accidentally memed my way to a pcgamer.com article: www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus... #godot
Godot natively supports coding in Sumero-Akkadian Cuneiform, if you needed another reason to switch game engines
Take cognizance that (from now on) I will not accept here any code that is not of fine quality.

"Does this engine's built-in scripting language allow me to write code using the finest and most adaptive logo-syllabic writing system ever devised in ancient Mesopotamia? If you're considering Godot for your next project, the answer is a resounding 𒀭𒈾."

Daily reminder that GDscript supports the Sumerian clay table alphabet, Akkadian cuneiform of ancient Mesopotamia. This is perfectly valid code you can write in your game:
It keeps updating with new AI generated suggestions for the ads each time I visit the page, somehow gradually becoming worse and worse:
Stein Makes Games@steinmakesgames.bsky.social · last wk.Trying out reddit ads for the first time. I learned that whenever you upload images for advertising (used real ingame screenshots), reddit will automatically AI-generate a bunch of fake images for you to use instead.

Why do people on reddit keep saying they are "working on an MMORPG" and then show off only the concept art they've been scribbling for the past 5 years 😭
This means Godot just became the most used game engine in the world's biggest game jam! 🥳
Game Maker's Toolkit@gamemakerstoolkit.com · last wk.It's not a competition, obviously - but it's absolutely bananas that GMTK Game Jam 2026 actually received more submissions than this year's Global Game Jam. That makes GMTK the biggest game jam in existence. (Maybe GGJ allowing AI-generated submissions put some devs off... who knows?)
Well, it finally happened! After 9 years of Unity dominance, Godot was the most used game engine for GMTK Game Jam 2026 submissions. 🤖 Godot - 47% 🎮 Unity - 34% 🛠️GameMaker - 5% 🚀 Unreal Engine - 3% ✨ Other - 11%
Challenge: Make the worst possible idea for a GPS location game (like Pokemon Go)
I propose all future game developer conferences should be hosted in The Arctic

Looked at top free mobile apps in category "art / design": At least 13/20 are AI, by description / marketed features. Maybe even more if one was to test them all, which I didn't. Just wanted to see as an overview how drawing apps are doing nowadays.
I like to follow the bot account that regarly screams, as a commentary to any events I read about.
they call it vibe coding without specifying if its givin good vibes or bad vibes
8 years developing a game and then publisher "Take Aim Games" steals IP, fakes marketing, abuses devs and refuse pay. Devs just recently managed to reclaim IP in legal battle but still owe them. No publisher > Shitty one Part 1 www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/s/... Part 2 www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/s/...

Most asked questions game devs get if they post their game on TikTok, with the game name clearly in the title: 1: "game name?" 2: "is for mobile??" 3: "will it be free???"
What game design choices do you think helps a multiplayer game get a friendly and non-toxic community?
Dire consequences of USA-centric and USA-controlled internet architecture: 🏈 This emoji is called "Football" ⚽ This emoji is called "Soccer"
Eyebrows once again makes the big difference of whether something looks like enemy or friend
I found inspiration from an unusual source, to add another enemy to my game!
