When I need a break from game creation I do linocuts. It took a whole weekend to print them, so next time I’ll do drugs to wind down like a normal person. #linocut #prints #art #traditionalart #gamedev

Game industry can offer a stable job, you know?

...
yup, I'll show myself the door.

second also: Glass shaders look really cool on a bowl-type aquarium and I know that it's not good for the fish so it stayed a horrible cube.

Fans: WE WANT PETS
Me: Best I can do is a fishtank
also, you have no idea how many shaders tutorials I've watched to make that tank!

After 1year+ of developing this game l’m pretty sure that the lack of language proficiency is the hardest thing to explain and to understand 🧐 #indiegame #gamemechanics

Great day at work for @dr-braur.bsky.social No bugs, just chill.

Screenshot from a game presenting 4 toys arranged on a shelf. Three of them are toy-horses and one is a dinosaur. Text above says: Day 4, they still haven't noticed.

It's a comedy gold.

Demo update is coming soon! It was so much fun to work on that room. #Cozygame #indiegame #indiedev

Steam Has Become TikTok I’ve been thinking a lot about the Steam ecosystem. When we released our first game, Curious Expedition 1, back in 2014, it was a completely different world.

It's just perfect, must-read:

It's quiet now. The city's heartbeat is steady. Just the hum of trains and what's left of my thoughts.

A woman with a shaved head in gold armor stands among dark briars. The briar thorns pierce her armor and skin in a few places, and she hangs her head in a defeated posture.

I just finished this up in a SmArtSchool mentorship class with Sam Weber. 😊 The assignment was to create an illustration with an original character, and I went with my current D&D character 😅

I just want to express my full admiration for a dev who just calmly and almost politely pointed them the door.

Beaver Bailiff by dr_braur Ludum Dare 58

Our first Ludum Dare comes to an end :)
There is still some time left, but I think our game is good enough at this point.

Thank you @katarzynahaptas.bsky.social <3

Please take a look and leave some feedback!

Awesome! Thanks ❤️

Hey, just a very gentle poke on accepting our accounts so we can post our efforts during LD :) ldjam.com/users/hap/ and ldjam.com/users/dr-braur
thank you!

I drew the beaver for the very first time in my life 😂

Looks really great! Is it unity3d?

I've spent the last 10 days completely reworking interaction system in Poof! Cleaning Services.
My goal was to eliminate the tech debt from the prototyping stage and introduce some cool new features, such as context placement, which you can see in the GIF.
