Satisfying game experiences: A full pack of Terran tanks in siege mode.

I am physically attracted to games, like moths to light or cats to red laser dots. Freelance game designer and developer, I also make games just for fun, love reading and enjoy drawing. Check https://store.steampowered.com/app/3268730/Kaiju_Control_Force

Only if you stroke your own beard. Otherwise it's something totally different.
Proud of being Spanish, today.
Oh, that's one I will certainly try when 7drl is over! Good luck!
Chilling on a lazy Sunday like it's 1998 again, playing the original STARCRAFT.
Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.
The moment LLMs stop using em dashes we will all be doomed.
Ah, no idea about Caravan Sandwhich but makes sense. Plus, animating with restrictions is quite challenging... and fun!
That was the way :D If I could have purchased video game OSTs back in the day, I would have spent more money on music than on actual video games! :D
One of our cats, Rex, has been missing for four days. We found him today, but also that the neighbors next doors call him Azabache and Wendy.
Si intentas vivir de una profesiΓ³n creativa, uno de los mayores retos a largo plazo es mantener viva la ilusiΓ³n. Ya no digo intacta, porque para eso hacen falta suerte y superpoderes. Pero que el fuego no se te apague del todo.
I'm putting together a talk about a practical guide to making smaller games, quickly.
If you have any cool practical tips or better yet, real life examples beyond "descope" please share below (full credit if used!)
In Kaiju Control Force we had around 14 enemy rats and 4 playable characters. It was only me animating all that and drawing all backgrounds (I also programmed), so I decided that all animations would have just 4 frames, the minimum to get smooth movement. Worked pretty well!
I hope they do have a blue light that turns red when most needed...

Had a boys night with my 10yo kid tonight and we watched his first zombie movie: Shawn of the Dead. A light one. It may be too soon for 28 Days Later or the classics. Or maybe not?
Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. Itβs always a matter of will not resources.
Would love to know about those communities! I feel a bit alone sometimes in relation to certain genres :')
I guess it depends on the game? I started freelancing after my second game, back in 2011, which looked like this youtu.be/WP6juP--BdM?... and I still do.
Does anyone play this kind of games these days, anyways? XDD
Prototype time! Merging Tetris and Puyo Puyo: colored tetriminos must be grouped by color like in Puyo Puyo, but groups only activate when you clear lines, Tetris-style. Would look quite cool with tiny little creatures and lots of game feel! #prototype #tetris #puyopuyo #gamedev
Oh, claro, como en los nadadores, que les hace de quilla.
If all months are going to feel as long as January did, 2026 is going to last a decade...
Old hockey board game featuring a steel spinning top.
TikTok threw this at me and unlocked a memory! Itβs a hockey game with a steel spinning top that youβd wind up with a lever and then release at diabolical speeds with a button. You had to stop it from entering your goal, at the risk of smashing your fingers. Yep, Iβm that old.
Picotron 2.2.2 is out! Right when I'm considering finally making a game on it. Must be a sign :D #picotron www.

Spanish games in the 80s - 90s were crazy. I had lots of fun as a kid with that computer, lots of fond memories ^-^
Ha! You failed, I DID own and play that one on my Spectrum 128k: CapitΓ‘n Sevilla!
But it's certainly a weird one, great choice :D
We were telling our kids about our wedding tonight. How we made our entrance to the wedding banquet with the Star Wars Throne Room theme playing, and we got nostalgic. It's time to rewatch the Original Trilogy for the nth time!
Sorry, Grammar Gods.
Apparently, it is now acceptable to attain a new status in life, simply by proclamation.
I hereby declare I am a 6' 2", 27 yr-old EGOT winner who is currently dating Taylor Swift.
Thank you for your attention to our delusions.
