Bit lat to the screenshot Saturday party, but I thought I'd share a new item pickup screen that will let you examine the spooky stuff you find in the cheese mines.

Been working on some ui stuff lately! Thought it would be funny if an old-timey printer actually 'prints' your score (and maybe a few other things)

New iteration for the title screen of my new old #Playdate game!
Started it as a jam project over a year ago (my first playdate thing!) before getting distracted by other stuff. It's almost finished, just have to not get distracted by other random ideas ๐Ÿ˜จ #gamedev

new title screen idea for my #playdate "job sim" Masterworks. Rumors say that it might even be in a playable state again ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Added an intro cutscene for my cheese mining game. ๐Ÿง€โ›๏ธ
Thought it would be nice to introduce your power tool.
You can also pick a name now.
If you skip the signature, the NPCs will just call you "Skip" ๐Ÿ˜œ

Screenshot from a game about mining cheese.
The first person perspective view shows an industrial drill held by the player in the foreground. In the mid-ground the player's head lamp illuminates some rubble, a shovel leaning against the mine's wall that has a paper note one it. I the background the mine tunnels stretch into darkness. On the edge of light a cheese wheel is visible sticking out of the wall.

Working on levels for my mining game.
Experimenting with lighting to support the atmosphere of being alone in a dark place filled with mysteries and cheese.

Don't save your game on a moving elevator if the elevator doesn't get saved with you... ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

With Hausbau finished and released, Iโ€™ve finally started wrapping up my other #Playdate project: Masterwork Inc., a game about silly shapes and working a crappy job.

This week was all about UI and menus.
Made a little main menu level to show the vibe of the game.
It took a while to set up the panel flow, but I got there!
Godot's localization solution is an absolute joy to work with!

Home - Linux Mint Linux Mint is an elegant, easy to use, up to date and comfortable desktop operating system.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Linux Mint www.linuxmint.com
I was told Mint had a lot of UX familiar from Windows, which made me give it a shot and yes - the onboarding experience was quite smooth!
Everything works out of the box. Even if you have nVidia hardware.
No regrets after a year of use!

time to dust off this account:
My tiny playdate puzzle game is out on the #Playdate Catalog ๐Ÿ˜ณ

There is also a bunch of new stuff: more tiles, silly German sounding town names, and

play.date/games/hausbau/

(it's still also available on itch)

Here's my first attempt at making a trailer for the prototype of How to Mine for Cheese!
Much has changed already, but I still think it captures the general vibe of the game.

Holy heck! This is a blast from the past! I remember them from when I was a kid in Poland. Apparently they were pretty OK family cars for the time. Even the cops used them as cruisers. I can totally imagine someone putting race stripes on one!

A comic on the bridge from Star Trek the Next Generation.
Picard: COMMANDER DATA, PLEASE IDENTIFY THAT ROMULAN VESSEL.
Data: THAT'S A GREAT IDEA CAPTAIN!
IDENTIFYING A VESSEL IS A GREAT PLACE TO START - IN ANY TACTICAL OR STRATEGIC OUTER SPACE SITUATION.
THIS VESSEL APPEARS TO BE A 23rd CENTURY KLINGON BIRD OF
PREY! ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿฆ…โœจ
Picard: ARE YOU SURE?
LIKE I SAID WE'RE... PRETTY SURE IT'S ROMULAN.
Data: ...
Data: OF COURSE! SO SORRY ABOUT THAT, YOU'RE RIGHT!
ON CLOSER EXAMINATION IT'S A ROMULAN VESSEL! CAN I RECOMMEND SOME SOONGโ„ข BRAND PRODUCTS THAT CAN HELP YOU WITH THAT?
Picard cradles his face in his hand in a gesture of frustration.
Data: DID I MENTION THE PLIGHT OF OPRESSED WHITES IN SOUTH AFRICA?

Making games quicker won't help if they are bad games.
Using AI, which optimizes for statistical averages has to produce mediocre, generic results.
Using it in ideation dooms you from the start.
Do players need multiple formulaic products? Or one memorable quality experience?

DuckDuckGo has introduced a new feature allowing users to filter out AI-generated images from search results, addressing growing concerns over synthetic content overwhelming authentic visuals online. 
The filter can be activated through a dropdown in the Images tab, search settings, or by using a dedicated AI-free domain: noai.duckduckgo.com. The system relies on curated blocklists, including uBlockOriginโ€™s Huge AI Blocklist, to detect and suppress AI-generated imagery. 
While not perfect, it significantly reduces synthetic content visibility. This move sets DuckDuckGo apart from competitors like Google and Bing by giving users direct control over their exposure to AI-generated material.

Indie devs have begun adding a no generative AI stamp to their store pages AI this, AI that - you can't go anywhere without something trying to force AI on you. Usually a company trying to get you to buy into what they've wasted billions on. So indie devs have begun fighting back with their No Gen AI Seal.
