I'd say this works for all kinds of developers. Keep on rocking! (back and forth in the corner) 🤘

Are you a game developer? Try these 4 fun exercises! Forward Lean (picture of a man leaning forward in his desk chair somewhat depressingly) Backwards Lean (picture of a man absolutely and completely deflated in his desk chair) Knees-to-Chest Stretch (picture of a man in the fetal position with tears welling up in his eyes) Egg Rolls (picture of a man lying on his side, clutching himself, sobbing, and a small puddle of tears forming)

Here's an exercise routine that I recommend to game developers in 2025. Stay healthy 💪

I grew up on these streets

Always a day late for #ScreenshotSaturday, since Sunday is usually a better day for #GameDev! Have updated the boss model and textures for my upcoming demo, quite happy with it for now. Also showing off how the bullet time can be quite useful during boss fights!

Bare bones Steam page for Flux Commander Demo, developers preview

It's not ready for public consumption, but what an incredibly pleasing feeling it is to install my own demo from Steam! #GameDev

Today I Learned, thanks! I've always been told that it was Dune 2 that was first, very cool to learn about Herzog Zwei!

Hornet Moth Similar in appearance to the Lunar Hornet Moth it can be distinguished by the yellow patches on the head and shoulder and a black collar. The adults can be found resting on poplar trunks after they ha...

Kotlin, it is the bastard child of the mostly good parts from its ancestors. Or, you know, whatever floats your boat.

Current state of the game: There's a life counter now, and you can actually reach a game over state - as demonstrated by my lackluster boss performance below 😅 Working on upping the difficulty a bit, and adding some more enemies is next. #GameDev #MadeWithUnity #IndieDev #SoloDev

Debug magazine in front of my little Unity project on my laptop

Received my first physical Debug Magazine today in the mail, it looks great! I almost never buy magazines anymore, it's a little nostalgic! Reminds me of being 13 and buying Amstrad magazines from the UK. Good times

This thread is incredible.

Hi, thank you so much for the interest! It is not up on steam yet, but I hope to finish my demo and put it up there soon!

Civ 6 is free on Epic this week. I have over 1000 hours in that game, so much good entertainment! Haven't tried 7 yet, hearing from friends that it's not quite there yet, but improving.

Thank you, and the same back to you!

It's kind of a bucket list item for me. A childhood dream since I first played arcade games whenever I could get my hands on some coins. And I am already 3 years in 😅

Thanks! And yes, I've been there with domains myself 😅

Message from Steam: Congratulations, you are now a SteamWorks developer!

Bought myself a Steam page. Shit, now I really have to finish this game 😅 #GameDev

Me too, I just never finish any games 😁

I guess I have reached the stage of my #GameDev where the task list is just fixing all the "oh yeah, it's not supposed to be like that" moments. Like, when the game ends, you're not supposed to have to close it with ALT-F4.

Have been working on bullet speeds based on animation curves to make for more interesting patterns. The front cannons on this boss uses that for the big bullets that slow down after about half a second. As evidenced by the video, it sure manages to kill me a bunch of times 😂 #GameDev #MadeWithUnity

To be fair though, Gemini gave a much better reply.

CoPilot and Claude suck equally bad when trying to explain how to use Unity Input System with UI Toolkit. Getting real tired of the "Sorry for the confusion, you're absolutely right" bullshit when I point out the lying.

Fill your bowl to the brim and it will spill. Keep sharpening your knife and it will blunt. Chase after money and security and your heart will never unclench. Care about people's approval and you will be their prisoner. Do your work, then step back. The only path to serenity. Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching

wondering out loud
is this even a haiku?
the rules say it is

The owner of the place my kids go to for martial arts, built an app using #AI #VibeCoding. He had no clue what he was doing.

I was able to extract all parents and children data, including children photos.

This is the proof that Software Engineer demand will go up, not down.
