Some recent screenshots of my #solo #indieDev game, Wedding Planic! Still a lot to do before I launch my Steam Page, but I wanted to share the current art vibes! #midcentury #gamesdev #art

Happy “it’s gone nine now we can smash all the chocolate that we didn’t give out” Halloween y’all!

This is what I’m working on at the moment with the lovely folks at VRTogether. Cozy Worlds trailer to drop any day now! #vr #indiedev #gamesdev

This made me lol! Pudu on the head!

Can the Corinthian harmonise with his eye holes?

A little update on my deck building wedding game (Wedding Planic) I made this video to capture some of the stuff that I didn’t just break on my last major refactor 😅🥲 Indie Dev Life.

Lots of cartoony icons that represent moves in game.

Lots of cartoony icons that represent moves in game.

Figuring out the design language for all of the possible outcomes of card placements in my indie roguelike card game. Still work in progress because I’m off to have a beer with some other developers! But here’s some images my work so far…

A little video I put together to show some of my progress on Wedding Planic! A lot of the functionality is in place, I’m getting ready to make the actual deck of peeps and start balancing the gameplay loop. Still a mountain of animation and UI to do 😅 solo indie dev is… hard.

Not all changes are for the better in these #bg3 patch notes.

This is super dumb, I've never tried to release a solo game before and have so much to do before I go anywhere near Steam - so I set up a substack so that WIP posts aren't time wasted. I got my first real sub today and I know it's the smallest of starts but I feel really happy about it.

Attempting this "marketing" thing that I hear is good for indie devs to do... stefindiedev.substack.com/subscribe

Every week:
"Wow. That was refreshingly candid"
"Thanks for being so candid"
"Ha! We can always rely on you to be brutally candid"

I'm not trying to, I just find it impossible not to either:
a) just say the thing I'm thinking
b) run, hide and avoid the person entirely

Am I missing a diagnosis...?

My husband got me this for Christmas.

I opened it and gasped “omg! The pattern! This looks so expensive!”

He replied: “yes! You can tell it’s expensive because of how complicated the pattern is!”

His mum was totally bewildered.

I’m old, cynical and nothing fills me with any form of joy because *gestures*

Then I see a video of Jensen, Jared and Misha announcing a reunion in The Boys and I’m a happy little imp again.

Fandoms are great. I forgot how nice it is to just give a shit about something so stupid. 🤓 #supernatural

I haven’t networked in a long time, but I’m pretty sure the reaction to being asked to connect on LinkedIn shouldn’t be abject terror.

I admire people that do this, did you play with 2,3 or 4 peeps? Googling “how to kidnap friends in a nice way for a weekend”

A Next Fest demo is onto a winner when it ends and your heart sinks because you can’t play on. This is one to watch! A perfect mix of stuff we know and love with new and interesting ideas. I love the room building mechanic, it reminds me of Castles of Mad King Ludwig and I wish I’d thought of it!

Oh heck yeah this looks great.

Reader: there are 4 acts in the Slay The Spire Board game. At best this is going to take me 6 hours to do one run through. 💀

Make bad game? Fired. Make good game? Fired. Make incredibly successful game? Believe it or not, also fired.

Dunder Mifflin in Meta Horizons could have been awesome.

But I just found myself shouting at an office full of kids like they were my dumb interns going “No, Kelly Kapoor’s desk is in the nook! Deliver the package there!” and I caught myself like wtf am I doing with my life I need to touch grass.

Art iteration is good for the soul. Feels like it’s heading in a direction.

both I hadn’t thought of, thanks for the recommendations I’ll be checking these out for sure!

Oh yes I love OG Dominion. I didn’t appreciate it at the time but it has a lot to answer for! (In a good way!)

I will check these out, some of these have been on my wish list for a while so a good excuse :D

3 board games: El Dorado, Quacks of Quedlingburg and Century Spice Road.

To strengthen my knowledge on deck-building mechanics I gathered my IRL games to prep for a big research play sesh.

But just discovered that only 3 games from my game mountain actually count. 😱

Don’t worry… I just placed a big order to correct this problem 🤓

Any recommendations I should add?

Ms Casey from Severence

your outie always draws on the correct layer

At dinner I say: “You should try Peglin, I think you would really like it”

A sea of confusing emotions wash over his face.

I elaborate: “I think it’s your jam…
…and a game loop you’d enjoy…”

It clicks: “Oh! Peg-LIN! The game!?”

Ladies and Gentleman he thought I’d said pegging.
