Emerald Woods Studio โ€“ The Architect [0.0.1] I figured I needed to push with creating a tool to continue with the next items on the Emerald Woods roadmap, so I decided to try building it using AI in a very deliberate, unsupervised way.

Question to those who wanted to like Emerald Woods #farming #roguelike and get into the game but couldn't, what would you improve in the onboarding experience? where did you get stuck or frustrated? I'm improving it for next version.

Slashieโ€™s 2025 Rewind And so, 2025 is over. An interesting game for indie gamedev. Here is the story. This was the first year after finishing the long running contract with Zynga, so I had to be on the look for work to โ€ฆ

2025 was a crazy year : lots of client work, 9 game jams, bigger projects moved more slowly, but Kramoraโ€™s Shadow got a solid update, NovaMundi won a design award, and groundwork is set for some exciting 2026 projects. See the details at blog.slashie.net/2025/12/30/s...

For months (years?) we've had an issue that only got worse lately: roguebasin (the #roguelike wiki) was being hit by automated traffic far beyond what its server could hold. I finally got to setup cloudfare and some apache rules, and it is MUCH better now, blazing fast! roguebasin.com
