I've been stumbling into a lot of bugs lately. I think a suspicious actor has infiltrated my codebase...

After years of following and supporting #indiegames and #gamedev, it’s finally happening:

Our game "Kernelbay" has a "Coming Soon" page on @steampowered.com and we're part of the Fishing Fest! 🎣

It would mean the world if you could wishlist & repost🙏

Added sprinklers to the full version of #FredsIdleGarden. Quite happy how they turned out. A sprinkler waters a certain area and the player the focuses on sowing crops. Try the demo here: store.steampowered.com/app/3786640/...

Cool game! I only tried it for a few minutes so far but I really like it 👍

I've taken a decision, which wasn't a given until I actually tried it, to add SFXs to #FredsIdleGarden with the option to only have them on when window is focused or always.
Try the demo:

Been making slow but steady progress on #FredsIdleGarden and now I've added the option for the game to either run on top of other windows or behind like regular windows. Try the demo: store.steampowered.com/app/3828810/...

📣New tutorial is out: youtu.be/fWrfjk1tkaM in this video I'll show you a neat trick how to convert regular models into growable models such as tomato plants, trees etc. Sharing what I've learned while working on #FredsIdleGarden

The gamedev gods know I'm not the best user of game analytics. But this time I actually did use it and I found out that only 27.3% clicked the reward button after completing a task. So I added a flashing icon and a tweened button and VOILA it went up to 87.5%.

And here it is in full action, battling against the other #SteamNextFest farming submissions.

Yesterday I found my game on some of the #SteamNextFest lists and I got a panic attack when I realized that my capsule art was just too boring. So I did what any INSANE person would do and quickly re-did the art for my Steam page (new bottom). Hopefully it was the right call!

📈 Demand and supply added to #FredsIdleGarden. If you don't have what customers want in your store then demand increases. It also decreases when they are able to buy what they desire.

How can you tell it is Monday? Yet a new bug in my game of course! This time I managed to screw up the load save game code but it was only my own version so no harm, yet 😅 #mondayBug #bug #gamedev

Ohh yeah! It is Sunday🤦‍♂️ time to take a brake!

Grass is now growing freely in #FredsIdleGarden. Here is how it starts on the left and what it can turn out to on the right. Planing on adding a lawn mower to be able to get rid of it.

Been making slow but steady progress in #FredsIdleGarden. Initially the garden will get some garbage and that will work as the tutorial which explains how to move and throw stuff away.

Neat trick! Looks great 👏

Guys and girls from the bottom of my heart thank you so for watching & liking my content on YouTube 🙏 Now I've unlocked a new achievement in my life, 4K subs 🎉 You are all so AWESOME. Thank you so much! #gamedev #YouTube #Tutorials

Wow, thanks a lot! This means a lot to me. Yeah, the trailer is kind of barebones when it comes to the content of the game and I'll be sure to record a new one once there is more content. Thanks again 🙏

Gotto keep those customers happy, or else they might drop a bad review 😏 . Stocking up all sorts of veggies matters now.
