The Fox Knocks

Been working on a new incremental experience all about mining. A good friend of mine just finished up the trailer: youtube.com/watch?v=YNxxEn… You can wishlist it here. I plan to have a demo sometime this month! store.steampowered.com/app/3505770/Ki…

@itsmcqueeb You can't just say this then not elaborate. 👀

A lot of people confusing legitimate criticism with “hate” today.

Kin and Quarry by @TheFoxKnocks, an incremental mining game, is out now! [PC] The magical essence of your sacred Evertree has been stolen and buried deep underground. As the land's steward, guide your people to dig deep to save it. #indiegame

@_Taralis @JonasTyroller That's fair. Me too. It's a different strokes thing for sure. The market doesn't lie, though.

@TheFoxKnocks @JonasTyroller I've played plenty of games I did not find fun that sold very well....

What's your controversial take on how to make successful indie games? Anyone is qualified to answer.

@Tbjbu2 @JonasTyroller Yeah but like, aren't you the guy with the reputation of releasing asset flip games and quickly abandoning them, bugs and all, trying to make a quick buck? I could see why you think this is a bad take.

The demo for Kin and Quarry is up. If you like incremental games, you should try it. store.steampowered.com/app/3505770/Ki…

Let's try this here!

I admit, it does get a little tiresome getting stuff like this when I release finished games and move onto new projects. The entitlement is exhausting.

@CodeRed_dev @jackie_codes To be entirely honest, it's not a bad Google 2.0, especially if you aren't quite sure how to word the problem.

@jackie_codes This is so true! I even turn to chatgpt for answers cause what I'm looking for isn't on YouTube

Once you get to intermediate / advanced level in game development you start to see how there's very little tutorials on these topics and the internet is littered with beginner tutorials all teaching pretty much the same thing.

@jackie_codes Definitely. I've described this to a friend as looking up how to fix a problem and it being pretty difficult to figure out because most devs don't make it this far, so there's way less info on it.

@mreliptik I'm glad to have randomly checked this site. I could use some tips and tricks on this subject, curious to know if I can learn some new stuff. Thanks for sharing.

Reminder that my course about juice for #Godot is on sale with the code HOTSUMMER 🔥 Learn about tweens, bezier curves, particles and all the tricks I use to make JUICY games 🧃 Here's what a student made using the course 👀 #gamedev

@itsmcqueeb Always funny to see the hordes of people with no relationship experience talk shit about dudes getting married. It's the equivalent of seeing a fight and saying "if that was ME I would've round-house kicked that guy into next week!" Yeah, man. Sure you would've.

Fellas, is it gay to have an emotional connection to another person? Fuck this website is garbage

He movin'.

@clemmygames No. I won't! You can't make me! ...alright I will.

Steam wishlists snowball. Start early

@PrimPixelsGames Nice use of the Mana Seed asset pack! I can see you've made some tweaks to it, too. Looks like it's put together really well.

I don't mean to be elitist, but devs, genuinely, a game shadowdropping and taking up 0.1% of Steam's playerbase is not why your game did worse than you expected. I'm sorry. I'm seeing some publishers that really need to figure this out, as well.

@CodeRed_dev When players stop liking it.

When will roguelike devs stop using this map format.

@jabroni_mike I've never heard anything good about it. At least with some prior versions, there were some silver linings, and a kind of "you get used to it, it's actually not a big deal" attached. Never heard this with Windows 11.

do anything possible to avoid windows 11. It is a waking nightmare i've lived every day for 2 years. Switch to Linux over updating. it is that bad, i promise you.
