this looks cute, shared by @Krikket -- a tower defense game with a narrative, and art that reminds me of the "don't starve"iverse
#100DaysOfGameDev #Day1 Well, there are 100 days left in the year. I'm going to work on a few projects and post progress here every day for the rest of the year. Past years I created some pretty interesting projects. Last year I failed miserably and barely got through the first month. Here is a terrible looking butterfly that I want to polish up and animate over the next few days. I need to break out my tablet and crisp up the wing textures first. #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGameDev #IndieGames

Just a wee PENITENCE update on #itchio as this last month has seen me all over the place!
https://tonycooper.itch.io/penitence/devlog/610623/september-what-work
❄️ Happy #screenshotsaturday! Today I coded in a new unlockable ability!
After dash-slashing through a few projectiles you will gain a long invincibility period and reduce the time left to survive! ❄️

Fighting Vendetta is a fun short Beat'em Up. It doesn't do anything new or anything particularly well, but it has style, fun music and some decent pixelart.
Of course, you can always get sweet #TTRPG games!
Grab a couple titles and get some cool #IndieGames while helping me out. There's also a couple of lifetime sub spots left!
DTRPG https://bit.ly/PunkRPGs
Itch https://revcasey.itch.io
Lifetime subscription https://ko-fi.com/s/df215d11bf
The battle system of Alveron is one of the core features of the game. It's a classic turn-based system, in which you'll always be able to keep an eye on the turn order and coordinate your actions with those of your opponents. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiegames #pcgaming

On a Postive Gaming Note, Today's Indie Recommendations go to TREPANG 2 :ablobfoxbongo:
This is F.E.A.R + DOOM Eternal to the Max. A Beautiful Ultra Violent Indie FPS with the influence of its predecessors on it's sleeves!
Developed by Trepang Studios in Canada and Published by Team17, Trepang has some just Incredibly Smooth Action and Slow Motion which makes it an absolute blast to play with so far alongside a really interesting almost SCP and FEAR esc Story that's certainly got me hooked!
Check it Out on Steam

Pixel-perfect rendering is in! The way this works is:
- All sprites use a custom material that snaps their vertices to pixel borders, so they're aligned with the grid
- A SceneCapture2D "camera" renders the game world to a 480x270 texture
- That texture is then drawn in the HUD, upscaled by the largest integer such that all of it fits in the viewport.

So I'm curious:
People with a Nintendo Switch, what's your preference for docked vs handheld? Do you almost always do one or the other, does it depend on the game, does it depend on what you're doing while gaming? And if you also have a PS5 or Xbox X|S, what's your preference for games that are available on both that and the Switch?
Someone really needs to sit me down and tell me that I don't *need* to buy Moonstone Island today.
...it probably won't actually stop me, but it's worth a shot.
Action Packed Indie Games to look forward to!

The best part about indie gamedev is when you find a game on itch.io that has zero comments and they have like one follower and they post some amazing game that is, while simple, far more enjoyable than multi-million dollar corporations
That’s the magic, that’s what I yearn for

Astronaut: The Best is an occult management adventure about running a proper space academy using hard work, lies, and witchcraft, all while trying not to be the next director to meet their demise. Let's take a first look at this new game from Universal Happymaker.
https://ageekgirlsguide.com/2023/09/13/first-look-astronaut-the-best
Okay so with this discourse at #Unity I really wonder if I should reprioritize games that are running on their own engine or an open source alternatives. There is definitely some games that I'll still play regardless but if I see something running in unity this will disincentivize me from wanting to try it. Almost on the level of denuvo anti temper and some kernal level anti cheat.
I grabbed 3 cool, weird, inexpensive little indie games on sale the other day on my Series X and got to try out all of them this morning.
Catacomb Master is a simple platformer where you play as a cat with an eye patch who shoots arrows. It has puzzles that even I can manage. I did a few levels and will definitely be going back to it. There was another kinda roguelike one that I can't remember its name (it was okay but frustrating right off the bat), and I also grabbed Morbid: The Seven Acolytes. Anybody try that one? Tips? 😂
While Morbid is a REALLY beautiful roguelike - Diablo - Souls kinda game and I want to get better at it, I'm finding it SEVERELY difficult. More research is going to be required for me to get better at it-- maybe I'll look at some playthroughs of it for some ideas. It's THAT tough.
#roguelike #roguelikes #Xbox #CatacombMaster #MorbidTheSevenAcolytes #IndieGames
@Fenreliania
After all, #Microsoft, #Sony amd #Nintendo want to make money and whether they get $20 in #licensing from a copy of #CoD or $5 for #CSGO of $1 for #Luftrausers is irrelevent to them, but they may find that people are more willing to pay 10 games at $12 each than 2 Games at $60 each.
And also #Gaming has become not only more "#casual" but also #mainstream...
So why not fluff up the catalog with #IndieGames people may just buy on a whim or by curiosity and ads...
WHAT THE HELL UNITY???
Implementing charges as high as $0.20 PER INSTALL? Including being charged per device and for re-installs???
And if someone installs a pirated copy of a game, developers actively lose money???

@ivanpapiol - rly cool game artist
@djlink - generally fun #GameDev content
@denmanrooke@social.coop - amazing artist that does fun streams (also does cool activism stuff @denmanrooke@mastodon.ie)
@Mimosa - my bestie that does really cool art stuff i promise
@renkotsuban - makes really cool weekly posts / streams about #IndieGames
@eniko - lovely indiedev with much needed takes on gamedev and covid
but who do YOU recommend me to follow? 🤔
I’m on the lookout for more weird/surreal #indiegames
Stuff like Crypt Worlds, Jazzpunk, Hylics, OFF, Dropsy, JEF, The Path, Space Funeral, Cruelty Squad… y’know, those types of games. I also recommend the ones I listed if you also like playing games and going “wtf” a lot.
So if anybody has more suggestions lmk
I forget who was curious the other day, but I broke out my physical copy of @platformalist's game Leaving the Tree today and opened it up again. I had totally forgotten how many cool things were packaged with it. There was so much, it was tough to get a pic on my desk! 😂 I'll try to get some gameplay soon - it's even compatible with most Xbox USB controllers.
The rad wood 256MB USB cart in the middle of the photo contains the game and even more of Andrew's (his Eggnog company's) games too- Maze Dog, Coffee Bug, Winterberry, Cat Bandit, Cake Cat, and more.
Incredible, all of it. Lots of stickers and two-sided character profile cards here too. On the other sides of the cards are little descriptions like on the overturned card in the top right.
Check out https://eggnoggames.com -- there are links to these games on itch.io there!

Do you know some popular media focusing on #indiegames ? There is so much talk about AAA, but I struggle to find a fitting community to get to know and talk about new and reward winning rising stars.
bumping a fresh link to the top of my TL again,
you can already get the beautifully surreal demo of the game i’m working on ₒ⋆•°*☆

“This is a reboot of the 1999 cult classic Flash website.
It is currently under production. Regular updates to the demo will be released until it is finished.”

I bought #NintendoSwitch as a birthday gift in 2019 and it's been a great machine. But there were so many things I wished it could do.
And then came #SteamDeck and did all those things and I'm so happy with it.
I finally wrote down my thoughts on the device and why I love it so much.
(I still love my Switch too for the 1st party Nintendo exclusives!)
#Thronefall is fun. My first game in #EarlyAccess and I am really enjoying it.
For the foreseeable future, I won't have time for a 100-hour game like #BaldursGate3, although I absolutely loved Part 1 and 2. 🚸
That's why I am glad that games like this can be played for one hour at a time. Oh, and the graphics are gorgeous.
