The display of our washing machine sometimes confuses the temperature and the RPM settings, displaying the symbol for one but the value of the other.
I was very confused the first time it claimed I had set it to 1200°C 🫠
I'm having computer issues so I can't work on the game these days.
I'm writing things instead!
Is it okay to put spoilers in devlogs?
There's gonna be a small spoiler in my next devlog 😬
Wishlist and check out the first two: s.team/a/3919240/

I made Festival Watch today as an experiment. It lists upcoming indie game showcases & festivals. Take a peek and submit your games 👀
festival-watch.vercel.app
That's an awesome overview!
See, I've been so disconnected I didn't even know that 😅
Thanks, that might be the way to go then.
hi there! we have an incremental demo with (optional) rhythm elements 🪽Angel Clicker! it's about winning the Annual Soul-Catching Contest between heaven and hell... 😇💥😈 thank you for considering!

Are those hair hands? 😲
I'll check it out!
I'm only like two and a half campaign behind at this point. I can still catch up, right? Right...? 😅
Its #NextFest time again! I dont have any demo in it this time, so maybe I actually get to play some this time? 😊
Anyone else have a #IndieGame demo to recommend this time around?
Getting the baby to sleep is always a challenge. I try to sing, gentle shushing sounds, talking about our day, or just humming.
But the most effective thing so far is just rambling about game design.
Works wonders! Apparently the topic just makes babies really sleepy... 😬

Went for a walk with the baby today and stopped by a new library near us. They have a lot of cool events there like calligraphy and creative writing!
Fun! Until I realized there was an upper age limit I've passed by more than a decade.
So now I'm just sitting at home feeling old 😅
Betrayal is easily one of my top board games! Always fun 😊
Really nice insights and feedback! And thank you so much for playing! 🥰
Some of these things were already on my radar, so it's nice to see you reaffirming them.
I'm still actively working on polish and bugs, so feedback like this is super valuable!
Yeah, I saw. Felt like a great place to start!
Amazing! It must have taken forever. I'll need to take a deep dive and check it out!
After a quick first glance, my current plan is to find the ones marked ⭐ and start there!
Hey tabletop gamers, if you bought or were considering buying this bundle but got overwhelmed by the number of games to sort through, have I got the spreadsheet for you!!
All 1,074 games tagged as "physical" sorted by play style, with language, engine, and genre notated to the best of my ability:
It's not super intuitive yet. It's jagged, unpolished and kinda buggy. But that's what makes it an experiment!
Personally I think it has potential, so I'm gonna see where it takes me.
Maybe It'll work out, maybe it won't. No way to know without trying! 😉
I haven't done #ScreenshotSaturday in a while, so here's my gamepad experiment!
"But Anders," you might say. "That makes no sense. You're making a game with 100% text input!"
To which I say "Yes, but like, what if..."

That's fair. Personally I tend to like them, but there are exceptions.
Some players really do like them though!
They're also not usually bothering players who don't care, so I find them worth adding. They can be a low-ish effort way to appeal to a broader audience :)
Yeah, thats what I feel. Or if the achievement is part of content I haven't seen before its OK. (Like the origin stories in Dragon Age, though thats also technically intro, I guess...)
If its just "Play this whole thing again, then make a different choice at the end" then I'm not a fan.
The goal is to use the achievement as a hint for a super tiny easter egg feature that's easily missed and not in any real way relevant to the actual game.
Hey #GameDev & #IndieGame!
How do you feel about missable achievement?
As a player I'm generally against them, but it depends on the game and how its done.
I'm mapping out potential achievements for my game now and I'm really tempted to add a missable one in the first few minutes of the intro. 😅
Turns out I enjoyed writing the devlog. So I wrote another!
Join me for a deep dive into what makes the text parser of Soulfused work, and how it came to be!

I'm starting to think it was a mistake pinning the #TTRPG feed... Because now I'm scrolling through it and I find myself really missing playing those games!
I need to get myself into some dice rolling action again soon...
That's impressive dedication!
And it doesn't have to be just your favorite devs! You can support as many devs as you want by wishlisting their games! 😉
Which reminds me, I should also go wishlist more games...
I mentioned previously how my partner sometimes brings the baby to the piano room to play together. They're doing it again!!!
I feel like the luckiest developer in the world getting to sit at home and work to live music like this! 🥰
These huge itch bundles have kinda become a "Donate and forget" for me, which is a shame because there are many wonderful games in there!
A spreadsheet and/or database sounds super nice!
The Tempest Tower OST is out now on Steam!
We are celebrating our Spilprisen nomination for Best Audio by launching the Original Soundtrack.
Hopefully we have good news for you after the show 🤞

I also just realized I never actually shared your video or channel. Totally meant to, very much my bad! I think the next fest chaos had gotten to me at that time 😬
