@aaabho It's crazy, and depressing, and sort of exhilarating. People are either doing it for the love of the game or they're delusional (maybe both?).
How's VOIDFACE doing btw? Haven't kept up with it much (nor hung out in GDL VC for a while)
@Cogh_ I actually just don't really vibe with this format of seeing content and hearing what people like to say. I prefer youtube's format of having to click on content to engage with it, and discord for interacting with small communities
I'm surprised people browse this website for fun. It feels like the equivalent of a loud and busy crowd where everyone's talking over each other.
I scroll for a few seconds in my home page and I already want to leave lol
I'm so happy that so many youtubers played Cobb Can Move, none of my projects have ever gotten this much attention!
On that note, my favorite gaming youtuber is @IAm8BitRyan. Maybe if I mention that out-loud, it has a better chance of manifesting...

📰 New game alert! 📰
We're excited to announce that we are publishing VOIDFACE, the bullet hell boss rush title from from Frog Hat Labs.
Check out the new demo in Steam Bullet Fest now: store.steampowered.com/app/3440020/VO…
@CevikUmutefe@markiplier I use a game engine called Construct 3, but I wouldn’t recommend it for newbies since it’s paid (and kind of hard to master). There’s plenty of free ones, I’d recommend trying a few of them and starting with small, achievable projects!
@aaabho@markiplier hey man i really wanna start making my own game and i wanted to know if you got any tips for a starter like what game engine do you use and stuff?
@IAm8BitRyan It's also always been a goal of mine to have a game featured on @itchio, but I think that only happens if a moderator happens to like your game (?)
I normally wouldn't mind my free games being re-uploaded to other sites, but I have no way to verify that all of them are safe to use and none have asked for permission.
After my horror game became popular, apparently all similar domains were instantly sniped and the game was re-uploaded to other sites lol
To be clear I don't own any of these, the only official place to play my games is on itch.io or Steam!
@aaabho@itchio Iiiinteresting. Is it a webgame? If so I wonder if itchio it switching to retention metrics for pushing stuff. Lots of sites are these days
