After a year of learning gamedev, my first commercial game is now available on Steam and itch.io for Linux and Windows!

Buy on Steam - https://store.steampowered.com/app/1641020/my_brother_lives_in_a_canyon/

Buy on itch.io - https://stormkmd.itch.io/my-brother-lives-in-a-canyon

a short game set in southwestern america, my brother lives in a canyon is about two brothers reminiscing over short-wave radios.

This game is also open-source and was entirely developed on Void Linux!

Made with: #godot #blender #krita #gimp #audacity #inkscape

Before you start using Git-LFS in your repo, consider this:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34579211/how-to-delete-a-file-tracked-by-git-lfs-and-release-the-storage-quota

I've been using it not knowing what's the limit and now I get nagging e-mails from Github about exhausting my quota, and the only way to get rid of that is to nuke the Github repository and start over (loosing all issues, stars, watches etc.).
Oh - I can also start paying Github $5/mo forever to rise my quota from 1 to 50 GB.
This sucks!

This is my new card video game "Rue". In this game all players sit around a table, while trying to get the rose.

This project is open-source and an alpha build is available for Windows, Linux and Android.

Good game!

I miss Sweden and ICA on the screenshot immediately sold me the game.

Turned out to be a ~1hour long, very emotional, very sad story.
The story hit close to home in lots of different ways, so instead of a nice little nostalgia pill, I got a full-sized emotional trainwreck.

I really like this simple depth-based "scanner effect" shader when picking up Jammer power-in Polychoron.

BTW, you can play the game right now: https://www.fractilegames.com/polychoron/

Why do #gamedev s always say "add to your wishlist on Steam" and never "add to your wishlist on http://itch.io"?

One reason: http://itch.io doesn't HAVE an "add to your wishlist" button. If you think it should, consider 👍 this issue:

Lovewood is now available for free on itch.io! There are versions for Windows, Linux, macOS and Android. Maybe give it a try and tell me what you think?

It feels great to at last reveal what I've been working on in the past 2+ years :)
Really proud of being part of this!

Been working on this for... over a year now? Finally able to announce "Rollers of the Realm: Reunion". Our studio's second, and follow up, Pinball RPG. Now we just have to finish it! :)

Pretty excited about some of the new mechanics in this one, and just general cleanup from our first take on the genre.

We are looking for software developers!

If you live in or would like to relocate to Germany, it might be for you.

We do mostly JS w/ types and Java but also a lot of other things.

There's a lot of freedom and we don't suck.

You can write GPL code for a living!

boosts welcome!

An Itch.io bundle with games from queer creators. Looks to be some Very Good Stuff in there! https://itch.io/b/861/queer-games-bundle-2021

There's also an incoming bundle to support Palestine, but that's not online yet.

The Garden Path is making its official announcement!

So proud to see how far it's come over the last years.

Check out the trailer and links below to learn more about the game and where I'll be taking it.

If you're a #gamedev consider submitting!

Very cool to see a non-trivial and polished game being developed entirely in Rust! Makes me want to resume my work on my own Rust game+engine...if only I had enough time and ideas right now.
