Would you all like another teaser of my upcoming boomer shooter creator? Alright! #gamedev

Life is a beach! I added tiny beaches to our game. The islands are generated procedurally so I needed to figure out how to detect the beaches and how much to push the vertices out.

Hey listen! I think our boy, Owen, deserves some attention here. He's done a lot of cool projects, has a ton of experience and is super nice and easy to be around!

Can we get him some reposts and #gamedev attention? 👉👈

Hey Bluesky! I'm currently looking for new projects, if anyone needs help with :
- Unity dev (particularly XR, immersive or installation-based work)
- TouchDesigner and other GLSL-based shenanigans
- LED lighting design & Arduino / ESP-32 noodling
- Technical direction
I'd love to be that help ✨

Oops we forgot to put a “pick one of three things” in our incremental esport parody game on launch but fixed it with free dlc

We have been adding characters to our cozy deckbuilder. This is our shopkeeper. Say hello to my little friend!

We were incredibly happy to welcome Harry Krueger, Game Director on Returnal, to the very first Reykjavík Game Summit. In a fireside interview with Ari Arnbjörnsson from Developer Relations at Epic Games, the core message was simple and powerful: gameplay comes first.

At RGS 2025, independent game dev Kim Ström spoke candidly about his experience marketing his game Penguin Heist and utilizing memes to crack the front page on Reddit multiple times. The central idea he works from is that if something worked once to gain traction it is likely to work again later.

Winter Mullenix (@winwin.bsky.social) is the lead Narrative Designer on EVE Online at @ccpgames.com. At Reykjavík Game Summit 2025, she offered a deep look at how narrative structure can shape the way players think, feel, and respond.

This was such a good #gamedev talk, we should all be taking notes on how to finish games like students! The pottery example in this thread is such a good point!

At Reykjavík Game Summit 2025, @loa-gunnars.bsky.social, game designer and adjunct instructor at Reykjavik University, shared a refreshing perspective drawn from her experience teaching game design and working with students.

This was a great talk and left me with some great points to learn from. Thanks @hashimusashi.bsky.social and @gamemakersiceland.bsky.social !

Reykjavík Game Summit 2025 kicked off with @hashimusashi.bsky.social, Game Design Director on EVE Online at @ccpgames.com, sharing a talk called '23 Years of Game Design's Untaught Lessons'.

So a cool thing happened today! The local #gamedev in Iceland gathered to allow the public to see and play their recently released games, as well as those still in development.

Kind of like a local games expo, only it's the first time we ever do this!
