"They're coming outta the goddamn walls!"
A simple enemy steering behaviour has the enemies homing towards the player given some target radius.

Toilet 8 on Steam You’re trapped in endless toilets. Watch these stalls carefullyβ€”every detail counts. If something’s wrong, turn back. If not… don’t you dare look behind. Or face the fart from hell.

A bathroom that keeps looping.
Spot the anomaly… or get a dumb jumpscare.

Toilet 8 is now on Steam.
If you enjoy weird horror vibes like Exit 8, hit that wishlist. πŸ‘‡

We like to think that one of the little chrome stanchions on that yacht was paid for with our 20 years of toil and effort. But we also like to think it would be nice to one day actually be able to afford our own chrome stanchion.

disappointing game launch grief.

very real among game devs, rarely public. i’m seeing one unfold publicly now, but don’t wanna draw attention to it. it’s sad. i want to say it’ll be ok, but in truth it won’t.

Look, it’s really straightforward to get a publisher as a new name indie in 2025. Simply do 95% of the work making and marketing your game, and if your metrics are trending towards almost certain success, a publisher will swoop in to promise the remaining 5%, deliver 3%, and collect 75%

I wish the Labour government would spend less time farting around about immigration and get on with useful stuff like taxing rich people, making trains not cost hundreds of quid a go and bolstering the NHS. That sort of stuff.
