Getting a long distance PB on a training run hits differently ๐ฅ
So proud of myself ๐ฅน
Breaking production twice in a week, I'm on a roll ๐ฅฒ maybe I should stick to non-live products... Such as single player games? ๐

25.01.2026 22:21 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Today would have been my grandad's 82nd birthday, but he passed away recently. It sucks that I never even told him I'm making a game inspired by memories of the summers I spent at their house ๐ฅฒ
24.01.2026 18:22 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0thanks so much!
23.01.2026 22:18 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Oooh ๐
22.01.2026 20:29 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Omg thanks for making me aware of the Direct, fingers crossed they do announce it! ๐ค
22.01.2026 17:25 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I remember we used to vibe on Discord with other game devs in the evenings and over the weekends working on our games, but everyoneโs moved on or disappeared now.
Any nice small communities out there?
You dont owe anyone anything, do what is best for you ๐
22.01.2026 17:20 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I know that for this game dev thing to work I need to protect not only my time but also energy.
Still, itโs so hard not to care so much at work ๐ฅฒ
Great work! Just shows how much effort it takes to make games ๐ช
21.01.2026 20:26 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0So pretty ๐ญ
20.01.2026 20:51 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Aww exciting times ahead! I recently dusted off my unity project and trying to get back into it as well โบ๏ธ
20.01.2026 17:53 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0What is it that Iโm hearing about 3DS prices going up, is it time to stock up on some games? ๐ง
20.01.2026 17:48 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0But that means exactly 3 months to being 30 ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
19.01.2026 19:54 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Exactly 3 months left to my birthday marathon! ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ
19.01.2026 19:51 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Clearly you just need to move continents to solve this problem
19.01.2026 18:23 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Seeing a game trailer, instantly getting art and gameplay ideas, then brainstorming them with a friend which somehow helps her make progress on her story too.
Need more people like that in my life ๐
Not for now with the massive renovation ongoing but I really want to learn 3D modelling at some point.
Even if it's simple it'd be so nice to be able to make stuff for my games โจ
Amazing milestone, well done! ๐
16.01.2026 17:07 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Wait you can do that? ๐ซข
15.01.2026 13:47 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Also, how ironic I turned down a full time game dev role because I felt tech would be more stable.
Joke's on me.
April 2024: left an unstable company. It shut down a week later without paying me.
November 2024: got laid off for financial reasons
March 2025: joined a much bigger company. Thought it would finally be stable yet people get laid off left right and centre.
When does this end?
No cool things ever come easy ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
I find the real power in feeling all sorts of crappy emotions and yet still doing the thing. Keep going ๐ช๐ป
Lovely vibe, it's the little things โจ
