Its been awhile since I found some inspiration and more importantly time/energy to do any creative side project. But recently found some inspiration to dive deeper into more traditional roguelikes and proc gen stuff. Starting this thread so I don’t give up on it :)

@Tocelot @humancomputerco This looks really fun!

so excited for BALLGAME, a golf platformer with pachinko from new indie game studio @humancomputerco from our 1st meeting, founders Alex & Eliot stood out for impeccable taste - having led design & creative at Airbnb for millions, now finding the fun the game balls, wishlist 👇

@PaneerDevourer Dude your dedication to souls games is admirable!

And Platinum #172 goes to Nioh 3, can’t wait for the DLCs #Nioh3 #PS5Share

@brunovelazquez @YouTube Dude this is so hype!! Was hoping for a gow announcement :)

@Blinkity Congrats to you and the team!!

We did it fam. Whole heckin video game

Let’s gooo!

@Drututt I believe in our teams capability of getting the balance right over time. Things that push the boundaries and are truly exciting for players will sometimes come out not perfectly balanced. It is the price of innovation that we need to accept imo :)

@_zencoder I havent been this exicted for a new league season since s11 (mythic items) im sure even in worst case scenario (omega poor balancing) it will be super fun and i cant wait to play it

Season 16 is gonna be the best league season of all time. - Every role will have a way to carry the game - Autofill tweaks, no lp loss/double lp and matching fills on both teams - Duo in APEX tiers - Lots of content Just 5 days left, i wake up shaking everyday just waiting for it

@playSUPERVIVE You guys made a great game that was unique and fun. Hope y'all are super proud of that achievement. Good luck with what's next!!

SUPERVIVE Live Service is ending in February of next year. Hear the details from Jess, our Executive Producer.

@truffle @ClaudeCode Haha cool….would love to read a breakdown if you ever get to it. Haven’t dove into skills too much. Mostly been using it for things like shaders, refactoring algorithms/code etc. I’ve found if your game data is text based, it is pretty good at parsing/extending it.

@_zencoder @ClaudeCode It is a crazy science lab of skills, hooks, and system prompt additions >.< Hoping to stabilize and simplify.

I think @claudecode skills is the new meta. All my CLAUDE.md does is tell claude how to interact with skills.

@alexandrabotez This looks amazing! Congrats and good luck on the reveal/launch :)

I turned chess into a video game: 40 players. Giant chessboard. ONE winner. Also, I added bombs💣 Playtest starts Oct 25th!

@alexandrabotez Sounds interesting! As a chess enjoyer, Is there a discord or place to check out early progress?

🚨I’m hiring!🚨 Looking For: 💎 Creatives 🖥️ Editors 🌝 Memers & more!! This is for the chess-inspired video game I’m working on. 👉 Apply to join: tinyurl.com/Chessarenagame

@DannyLimanseta Highly recommend Godot too. Found it works very well with Claude due to the language being pretty easy to parse and being open source works well for it too!

I think I might have discovered the best 2D game engine for vibe coding games. For the past few weeks, I have been making a lovecraftian fishing game with peaceful day time fishing and intense night time combat where you fend off mutated sea creatures. And I've been using Love2D game engine for this. Love2D game engine runs on LUA, which is a compact (token-friendly) programming language that many models (GPT5, Grok Code and Sonnet) are pretty good at. I'm considering to set up a Patreon where I'll share more in depth content (devlogs, prompts, advice, tips etc) where I'll share my learnings as I vibe code an indie game from scratch. If you're interested in this, please let me know in the replies. Trying to gauge interest on this!

@BrainEngineer Congrats to you and the team!!!

6 years ago I had the idea to use AI to let players build their own worlds and tell their own stories. 4 years ago I told Riot I was leaving to try to make it real. Today the amazing team I work with announced Liminal: Skies. Check out our first trailer, and wishlist now!

@Blinkity Dude blitz looks soooo good!!!

Blitz Blitz Blitz Blitz Blitz They're here 🥰 Get ur hands on those hands in seven days!

@itsrobdavis So hyped for it!

@Bp__Dev Nice! Great work!

@_zencoder Currently I just use anim packs and modify some for my needs.

Stick flips, straight into the MAYHEM! Wishlist #StickmanMayhem on Steam. #Stickman #Animation #indiegame

@SoerbGames Love the fluid dynamics!

I finally made a little trailer and a Steam page for my upcoming game "Ignitement"! Wishlist it here: store.steampowered.com/app/3845350/Ig… #indiegame #gamedev #roguelike #ignitement

TLDR - I’m not a fan of the Llm part of it where it benefits from stealing art/creative concepts especially when that becomes commercial. I am excited for its potential in tool/developer velocity, speeding up iterating/finding the fun and higher fidelity pitches for ideas

Took awhile but I finally installed Claude code and it’s the biggest jump in programming accessibility and innovation I have felt in decades. Between chat gpt/copilot and this, have been solving code and math problems that i had thought were beyond my skillset at such a fast rate
