And here it is! My full catalogue for #FantasyBasel 2026! There's tons of new exclusive merch, and it'll also be the first time I'll be offering prints! Come say hi if you get the chance! (1/3)

I am still alive! Crazy weeks but managed to work on a boss design this weekend #gamedev #pixelart #indiegame #godot

Now that Beyond Sandbox is out, we're now officially the most wishlisted VR game on Steam. It's pretty crazy, considering where we were. We're working hard to create a game that lives up to expectations! #indiegame #gamedev #vr

📣 spookY2K is out NOW! 🎃 Play as a deeply confused amnesiac who wakes up at a 2000s Halloween party. You may try figuring out how you got there, but that quickly stops mattering when a mysterious killer shows up! 🔪 💕Play our brand new time travel horror comedy #visualnovel here: Steam / Itch

I'm trying to work up the courage to post here more often again. 😅So here's a piece of concept art that I'm currently turning into 3D for one of the drivable/hijackable mechs in my little game. 🤖

Devlog #11 is up! We're showing some more characters and making some more announcements! Read it here: store.steampowered.com/news/app/304... For backers, the Arc 2 Beta will start playtesting on May 22nd! Hope to see you there! #TurnBasedThursday #indiedev

My full set of prints arrived, and I'm so happy with the quality!! #spookY2K #FantasyBasel

I can't believe it's already been a year since the demo was released. We'd been working on it since 2022, reiterating over and over as we faced challenges and doubt. We hope everyone continues to support us as we work toward the 2027 release! #indiegame #gamedev

Hey! It's my birthday! If we haven't met, I'm John. I do writing/narrative design games... including ones you might have heard of. I've just wrapped up doing rewrites and VO direction for an upcoming AAA shooter so I'm currently looking for the next adventure.

We've started our own publishing label to support other indies! And our first announced title is @sunsetvisitor.studio's second game. AND we've got something secret cooking in the oven with @smallbu.bsky.social to be revealed at a later date! Read more here: medium.com/p/500708c30a38

does anyone know anyone who works at Roblox (particularly the support team) that they'd be kind enough to connect me with? my kid has been pouring his heart into developing a Roblox game with a team of friends for a long time now and it just got hacked and destroyed. we could be their heroes 🥹

An AI dares to dream that she is human. You’ve been hired to put her in her place. We’re sunset visitor 斜陽過客, the creators of 1000xRESIST, and this is our next game: Prove You’re Human. Published by our friends at @blacktabbygames.com. s.team/a/4533950

Love seeing more and more successful indies pivot to having a publishing branch. Big punk "DIY or die" energy

Alabaster Dawn Early Access will launch on MAY 7, 2026!

Hey #TeaseYaGame⛄ Me and my friend/composer William are developing a free PC-98 inspired yuri visual novel, 'if you stay.' Decide if you and your GF will stay together. You have one choice. With or without her. Wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/4437140 #WishlistWednesday #indiegame #pixelart

Hi everyone! As we're planning out our Kickstarter campaign, we'd love to hear from folks who've been through it before. What advice do you have for a new & relatively unknown studio? Anything you wish you'd done differently for your campaign? We're all ears and prayer hands! 🙏🏾

This industry is dumb. We just want to make cool games for people to play. It used to be that was hard just by the nature of the job, now it's hard because even if you succeed you still risk being punished for no fault of your own after having your labor exploited.

I am so ready to experience this again www.nierconcert.com/12026

There's a misconception that because good indie games are coming out, the indie game industry is doing well. This is absolutely not true Nobody can get funding for anything and the only way to make an indie game is to sacrifice years of your life Even then you're just one among thousands in a year

This is back open; if you're part of a (massive) layoff in the game industry you can request a product of mine for free. It's not much, but it might help you in your journey ahead. 🫂 docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Something I've forgotten to mention: The website for Grave Regrets is up! studiograil.com I haven't coded a website since Neopets so please let me know what you think and if you come across any bugs 🐛

Full-time freelance video game writer, here: I’ve been asked this many times and every time it’s: it’s a lot of factors and they all play a role. Time management. Referrals/networking. Knowing what to charge. Being a good communicator. Being damn good at money management. And worst of all: luck.

People who make comics (or other freelance art work) as their fulltime job: how do you do it? How do you make it work, esp financially? People who make comics on the side while having a fulltime day-job: how do you do it without overworking and/or burning out?
