Far too niche to be asking the same price as a Switch 2
However, I do want to make a game for it 👀 Hopefully someone will post a DIY version in the coming months

Introducing FragCoord: My ultimate shader editing tool!
For those who knew Sandy Duncan (@lordoftheyoyo.bsky.social), you can leave condolence messages for the family here.
His Funeral details have also been released, and it will be streamed for those unable to attend.

Alternatively, if anyone knows of any repos/examples lying around the web (that have a license that allows me to use them non-commercially), that'd work too!!
Hey y'all! I've got a request for all the game devs out there 👀
Is there anyone using TexturePacker, Asesprite, or other tools to create texture atlases that would be willing to share their files with me? I'm having a hard time finding examples to test my importer

Ready... for what?!
Ditto. I grew up in MN & lived/traveled all over the US, have not seen any of these before. I vaguely remember a friend saying something about a "Food Mommy" store years ago, but I assumed it was a one-off store somewhere
Any Seattleites wanna team up this weekend for GGJ? Looking for a team
I bring programming, tool development, and an insatiable desire to juice everything up!!
I would definitely open a bug report, that sounds like somebody plugged the wrong variable into the feature
Is THAT what Sublime did?? I could never figure out what was going on
Sketchbook pages from last night (I did not sleep) I guess some of these don't really qualify as sketches, given I worked on them quite long, esp the 3rd pic.
I’m conducting a 30 year experiment to see what happens if you never get a good night’s sleep
Tens of thousands of demonstrators filling the streets with signs and banners
Demonstrators as far as the eye can see. Current status of the march in Downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota for Ice Out of Minnesota. They are turning onto 3rd Street from 5th Avenue.
This is insane. Insane that it's happening. Insane that these good folks need to do it in the first place. And insane that no one in power is helping them one iota.
The myth, the legend, the tale lost to time...
Micro plastic free?
Would love to speak to any regular international GDC attendees who are skipping this year's show (or were going to attend and have now cancelled) due to the current political climate. DMs here or luke@aftermath.site, thank you!
Ditto! Remembering the time before smart phones but having them emerge in middle school feels like we got a Millennial childhood and a Gen Z teenagehood
Love that "micro-generations" are now a thing
Incredible we are still featured on itch

"How did you spend your time off of work?"
If you're lucky enough to have a chunk of time when you don't need a job, you want to make it count.
Come learn how three Recuse Center alums chose to spend their time off.

My latest micro-memoir piece is out now with @fiveminutelit.bsky.social!
We've removed the paywall from this guide so everyone can access it. 👇 Stay safe.
A timeline visually representing the advice from my post, emphasising how dramatically and reliably having more time, with a testable build, converts to your game being better and your studio being safer.
I've been running an indie games studio for 15 years now, and it felt like a good time to boil down what I've learned into 4 pieces of advice:

I hope it's of use, not least because goddamn I forgot how long blog posts take to write.

I've just released the TYPECAST demo... two years after the initial game released!
Here's the catch. It's not really a demo. It's the whole ass game for FREE but without leaderboards. If you want to compete upon the altar of pain then you gotta give me $4.99

This is where articles explain the concepts of the engine (and maybe how you'd implement a crude version yourself) really shine. I personally want to think "...dang, I wish my engine had that"
For me, I think the perfect combo would be an engine that has interesting APIs/paradigms that piques my curiosity, and a low stakes game jam/excuse to try it out
