✨ Diving back into level design!
Here’s a tiny sneak peek at one of the regions I’ve been working on for Tales from Frah’Akin.
Flowing water, ancient magic, and just a hint of danger… 💦
More secrets await inside.

According to a new court filing, the Trump administration has a six-page list of banned words that Head Start locations are forbidden from using when describing their programs.
Among the censored words: "disability," "race," "women," "trauma," "Gulf of Mexico." Short thread with the full list. 🧵

Since I posted this yesterday:
- The writer of the "I hate muslims" review has doubled down, and added that they also hate transgender people
- Valve removed my flag from the review, with nothing done about it. The review remains up and on our Steam page

I say again: Is this what Steam is now?

The Horned One has seen your kind before.
Few have survived on their own for a night in the woods, and it will take some effort to convince him you're of any use.

If it wasn't obvious that I love Orcs, here's a stronghold of a completely different clan that makes their home in the Cloudpiercer Peaks.

Gor'kal bazaar is a nice place to trade your wares if the local Orcs don't kill you first

Has anyone ever seen a prettier player gib?

HORSES cover with a banned from Steam logo

Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

A community member helped me test Steam keys (Note to self - can't get release state override playtest keys, had to get one for main app)
Also, look at their creation, the first by anyone other than me :) I might have to implement build piece rotation...

Too broke to buy an asset pack with a workbench for my game. Too lazy to check if I already have one.
6 Boxes it is.

Absolutely zero issues sleeping after drinking coffee. Except having to get up to pee😂
Did notice I've had to cut down on coffee in office hours though since starting Ritalin

Whaddya mean you don't want people running around with their spearfish-shooting gun in your cozy medieval farming sim? It's the future, embrace it or get left behind.

Can you spot the difference hours of work yesterday has made ?
I can't, but I'm still satisfied with the progress. Not all work is visible - in this case an item system which is a solid foundation for all systems which use items.

We love indie games over here at FPC and we're always interested in seeing what new indie games are in development or have been released.

If you're a #gamedev and have some new #indiegames you're working on (or a game you just want to talk about), feel free to #PitchYaGame!

In other words, I don't care who the publisher is per se.
An indie publisher is a publisher who publishes indie games - not necessarily an independent company themselves. And most aren't.

To me it's not about the publisher being "indie".
It's the dev, and the game. So it's all about the independence of the developer themselves, IP ownership and the nature of the publishing deal.
Not so much the amount either - although perhaps at some point it becomes absurd :)
