Out now! Get your copy of Blocks Tracks Trains on #Steam and start building those magnificient train sets 😀 store.steampowered.com/app/2190250

@OskSta @PaulSkallas Huh. Maybe that's why I prefer landscape photos as my desktop background

Depth is underrated. Most desks used to face the room. Humans evolved in environments with expansive views, like open plains or forests. These natural settings provide depth, which is visually soothing and reduces stress. Then the computer came along and we all face a wall and stare into a small 2D portal. Causes neuroticism. Staring at a flat wall deprives us of a calming visual input.

@DoubleFine Time to stare out of the window

Hello there, cool people. It looks like the Double Fine PsychOdyssey limited edition Blu-ray collector's sets are shipped and on the way. If you're a fan who ordered one of these nifty collectables, remember to keep an eye out on your mailbox for da goods.

@kuryu_gamemode Nice! And if you'd like to build your own trains that even move, check out my profile :)

#TinyGlade 機関車

@fronkongames Much love for your stuff :D

Enhance your games with this single-file Tweens library! gist.github.com/FronkonGames/a… #gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiedev #unity #unity3d

Made a new terrain editing system for Blocks Tracks Trains. It will be available in the next update :D

@AlanZucconi Sweet, so I can fit longer lines on my inner inner inner loops ;)

The quickest way to implicitly train developers to write better code is to reduce the font size with each nesting. 🧑‍💻 You're welcome. ✨

@LazenGames One published "shitty" game is better than a hundred unfinished projects. Congratulations on pushing something out the door :)

2 years into my indie journey, I decided to follow the most important advice: start small. So I released a shitty idle game with ads on the Amazon App Store. It won't be successful, I just wanted to go through the whole cycle until delivery. #indiegames amazon.com/-/de/dp/B0D1L5…

You got bamboozled! #ue5 #gamedev

@jakubtomsu_ @karl_zylinski The Onion Express, obviously

@karl_zylinski TRAIN & ONION ANNOUNCEMENT??

Going live in a few minutes with some prototyping of what I wanna do next. Odinlang + Raylib! youtube.com/watch?v=olgMu9…

@_mikeVSG Does it count if I want to develop but can't make time? ;)

Got an indie game that needs help with marketing? Or a pitch deck you want help prepping for publishers? 🔥 Contact me over at ⬇️ and let’s make you shine! ✨ @InkyInsights 📶Retweet for signal boost

@the_duriel Reminds me of a book I read many years ago, showing how to make an adventure game in Unity. At some point they decided to use the filename of an entity in scripting...

Game Dev Tutorial: So to then detect the closest enemy in range, we first create a circle collision object and check it each frame for anything inside it. Then you can check the name of the objects and if it contains "enemy" just grab the first one. Me: <groaning in anguish>

jesus christ javascript asdgasf did you know a-b*(-c) is not equal to a+b*c 🙂 because guess WHAT - 'a' was a string all along bitch and all the other equations using it somehow still worked fine ahah woo!! TYPES 🎉

@BarrierXI That's an evil little bugger.

Look at this awesome bug I just spent 1 minute debugging 😄 Just #gamedev things

@BarrierXI @ArturSmiarowski Rabbit pellets make wonderful slingshot ammunition

@ArturSmiarowski Fertilizer is an obvious choice, but I'm not planning to do farming since the game is about traveling somewhere. What else could I use it for? 🤔

Is this trading? 🥕🐰💩 #indiegamedev

Alright, putting my money where my mouth is. Pending price changes for my train set building simulator "Blocks Tracks Trains" for Asia, Eastern Europe, Middle/South America and Africa. Sorry for assuming Valve's suggested prices were ok.

@Stoneshard Thank you, that will be a good start

@splenbit There were two main factors we took into consideration: purchasing power parity per capita and median income in relation to USD We also tried to set up a similar price across broader regions (unless a specific country's economic situation is vastly different from its neighbors)

Over the last few months, we've received a lot of complaints about the game's price being too high in some regions. So we decided to move away from Steam recommended regional prices, do some economic research, and adjust the price accordingly #stoneshard #announcement #gamedev

The bean is on the run! Trying out 2D animation... I will never admit how many hours it took me to get to this point😉 #indiegame #gamedev

Behold my animation skills. A jumping bean of sorts.
