Hi there! I'm creating a video that features Prison of Husks, and I would love to use your art for the thumbnail. Would you mind if I cut out the character from the background for it? I'm happy to share more details in DMs.

Bit of a pivot for me! I've started a new job, and with the life change, I've finally taken the plunge and started a YouTube channel. I'd really appreciate it if you could check it out: www.youtube.com/@spi...

Any new YouTubers out there? I've just started a channel and would love some advice on how I'm doing! My current goal is to cover a variety of games similar to GiantBombs 'Quick Looks'.

Come join me as I play a game I've long awaited: Labyrinth of The Demon King! It seems to have some really cool King's Field esque vibes.

I'm streaming the new Oblivion remaster right now! If you have any burning questions about game development or publishing, now is the time to ask. Or just come hang out and kill some goblins!

I had a dream least night that Destiny 3 was set in the Pillars of Eternity world. My mind torments me.

We started a new TTRPG yesterday called Mothership. The DM set it in the SCP universe and absolutely nailed it, the vibes were very Control! I recommend if you want a simple system that encourages roleplay!

Is anyone else really struggling to get into RPGs nowadays, if I can't play for 10 hours straight then why play at all damnit!

(Unless it's Morrowind of course)

I'm thinking of trying some consulting and offering #indiedev publisher-style reviews, such as evaluating pitches or demos. Is that something you would be interested in from someone in that position professionally? Maybe even for a YouTube video - "Evaluating your #game pitches".

#indiedev world, how important do you believe making a YouTube channel is? Is it worth the time or an unnecessary distraction? I'd love to get your opinions!

I think I've nailed the mouse movement in my game, #Namaste. The new animations are just the icing on the cake. Just imagine a pile of items on the player's head and that's the game!

Wow, that's very eye-opening! Thank you for the detail, will be sure to check out that plugin as it sounds much more efficient than what I'm doing now.

I like how you're mixing different art styles across one game, what's it called?

Very nice, I'm trying to lean more into this aesthetic. May I ask your workflow of how you do a model? For me, it's currently a simple model in Blender with a down-ressed real image projected on it as a texture.

Wow, amazing art style! The environment looks so detailed I'm surprised that it's procedural. Definitely continue with the clutter aesthetic.

I hope you enjoy the first look at my upcoming game, #Namaste. This community center will be the hub world of the #game, wherein our troubled characters will be offloading their mental burdens via your yoga class.

After a bit of a break from social media, I'm back and posting across BlueSky, X, Threads, and Mastodon. So expect some content from me about #gamedev publishing advice and my upcoming game, Namaste!

I've also considered that, using it as a personal BP database for modular systems.

How often do you use blueprintue.com? I've never found what I'm looking for on there, but I love the idea. I may start uploading my blueprints there for others to use πŸ€”

Production on my next game started today. I have to say I'm surprised and proud of how much I've been able to do already! The interaction and dialogue systems are complete!

What #GameDev skills have you surprised yourself with lately?
