Attention! Due to itch's new payout policy, I am going to likely pull my games in the next few days. I hope to replatform them elsewhere so I'll need to find where.

I'll try to keep everyone posted. In the meantime, call and yell at payment providers, put pressure on your bank who partners, etc

It’s almost impossible to come up with an exhaustive list of unacceptable products to sell, so often we have to take content reviews one at a time. If an issue arises with your account that isn’t already covered by our policy, then we will contact you and share what options you may have. If you've collected money while in violation of terms, we may be forced to refund or freeze all pending transactions, as accounts that are in violation of our terms are not eligible for payouts.

Itch's new content policy is:

1. We can't tell you what violates the rules.

2. If you violate the rules, we take all your money. Not just the money from that work, ALL your money from EVERYTHING you've ever made.

I don't care how much of a smol bean Itch is, this is not a viable platform.

Itch.io revenue sharing slider has been set to zero. I cannot in good faith give a penny more to a site shadow banning lgbtq+ works as adult. Nor a site choosing to comply with fascists and ban adult content really.

Psa, itch.io is complying with fascists, delisting lgbtq+ games. No plan to revenue share till they get their act together to say the least.

Not that itch was making any real money but this is still a threat to me so I'm boosting my gofundme.

Got ardour set up mostly, some free synths(still open to recommendations)

Tonight I think I'll see if my midi keyboard plays nice with linux

A back and top view of a helmet in progress on a cube. All of it is selected in orange except for a pattern that reminds the author of a shield with a pattern near the base.

Potential logo accidentally formed on the back of a helmet for my next game concept!

Well, possible. Funny how shapes just form and all.

Maybe make it more geometric and like a tree(plant) I think, but...I kinda like it anyway

Should I like...add hashtags?

Like #indiemusic #musicdevs

Looking to do some music making(as a second hobby/for assets)

Any good free virtual instruments? I'm looking at ardour for running things.

Open to recommendations for the whole stack, but I am on linux

Apparently? I had to delete it in godot and reimport from scratch to get animations. Wild.

Anyway, lets at least get a little controller into existence and hopefully every day/weekend I can make a small bit of progress

I'm discovering animation and assets are likely to drag my game speed down. Anyway, I'm getting back into mucking around with my pikmin like concept, and professional probies.

I'm looking through what I think is the oldest text document about DELTARUNE that I can find. This is one of the first facts about Susie. Even though this has never happened in the game, everyone just intuitively understands this as true. I won.

I'm thinking I'll get back into my game dev again, I hope.

Any channels check out indie game demos?

Realizing somehow thiw game has just about a third as many downloads as views on itch.io, and I somehow missed it.

I should get back to game dev. Donations as you download help me do so, as it keeps me from needing to look for a second job right now.

Still! It truly means a lot! Thanks everyone!

Update 0.0.2! Simple update! Add some QOL, such as the length of hoses being displayed on the hydrant, and the remaining length on the nozzle. We got some bug fixes such as doubling of next round when enter key is....

Morning.

Another day in #pridemonth!

Is there a hashtag for trans devs? No clue. #transdevs

Anyway, I get money's being a bit tight for...I don't need to reiterate, but that's why my game's pay what you want, and free is an option!

Anyway. It'll certainly optimize dev side!

(4/x) simply because I ran into "Shit that's slowing me down" about stuff that I didn't even consider as liable to *be* a problem.

Course, given my pc, if I'm wondering how the engine level costs of inheritance are performing, I'm long beyond useful game dev and into bored crafting.

(3/x) add in stupidly modular gear, and suddenly your character's gotta check through gear for oxygen and shit, stuff that needs hefty caching for sure, on top of many what I believe is an np problem every round.

While I've largely shuttered it, it left me a deep seated appreciation of optimizing

(2/...x?) to be clear, I'm sure the answer is somewhere between zero(except maybr at build time) and negligible, but if your going into a project and realizing upfront its likely going to be an nightmare of optimization...(game in question is functionally a traveling salesman problem.)

Oh? I haven't been keeping up to date, but this would massively simplify a game I had larhely put on ice for now.

With how much I do similar data structures, I have wondered idly if there is a performance cost and how much to inhereting a base creature, overwriting methods, etc. (1/2)

I'm not claiming this games queer, just that I am.

Its a free little puzzle game, android, linux, and windows, with a simple premise.

Put out the fires in a turn based way. Nothing too fancy, but the art is drawn by me, and code by me.

Hey folks, seeing as it's Pride month, I want to do a little something to boost indie games from LGBTQIA+ developers, so if that's you, please reply with a little bit about your game and a link to your store page. Let's see if we can't get some more eyeballs on your games!

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Happy #pridemonth

This game is pay what you want, and made by a queer game dev.

I also have some free art assets on my itch.io.

Fixed the windows upload. Check it out for pride month?

#transartists #queerdevs

Oh yeah! Reminder that I updated the game a little back for better visuals and QOL! Come put out some fires for free!

Hey, heads up. Game dev is largely on pause at the moment. Please consider checking out my existing work and maybe offering a few bucks.

I am desperqtely saving to move out and unfortunately don't have enough time to work on this without even a few bucks pay.

Me-"lets upgrade pc with some the other parts works binning. Nothing impressive but I can still use. "

Alienware computer I was given years ago with shit cooling and no room-ah right lets get a new case.

Me-realizing I am liable to be without pc for at least a day or two to do this

Oh yeah! Reminder that I updated the game a little back for better visuals and QOL! Come put out some fires for free!

An image of blender, where the left side shows a rendered figure with a monitor for a head standing up in a t pose. The right side shows the internal skeleton of the figure.

Well well well! I'm making progress learning to rig and model. Lots of work to be done, but its enough to start testing it in godot for a feel for my next game's art.

For now, I prefer focus on my other game and assets for viewers, but stuffs in progress!

I don't believe my game is for every person. But, to a certain type of people, attuned a certain type of way, this game can reach a meaning beyond its appearance, and find a shape in your heart. Even if there's just one person that feels that way, I will keep making this game to grow by your side. See you again soon.

deltarune help section on the webpage updated and this has me feeling some sort of way.
