Cybernetks

New Studio Note. I’m experimenting with monthly increments instead of big yearly goals, building and releasing something small every month. This post explains how I’m approaching it and what I’m building right now. cybernetks.be/monthly-increm…

I published a studio note today: Cybernetks: 2026. It outlines the direction I’m setting for my solo studio. What “self-sustaining” really means to me, how I’m building in public, and why I’m optimizing for longevity over speed. No hype. Just clarity. cybernetks.be/cybernetks-202…

I’ve reintroduced a warm-up into my routine: a small code kata before work. Not for mastery. Not for improvement. Just to clear the noise and begin with intention. Most of the battle is in the beginning. cybernetks.be/im-bringing-co…

Experimenting with the Pomodoro Technique to stay focused while building Cybernetks. Small, deliberate cycles of deep work are outperforming long, unfocused hours. Focus is a system, not a mood. cybernetks.be/focus-in-small…

Progress isn’t always about speed. Sometimes it’s about direction. Between client work, family, and the house, I’ve learned to keep momentum by following a Developer Roadmap — a simple guide that makes slow weeks still meaningful. New post: cybernetks.be/the-developer-…

My first ever game jam is complete! 🚀 Alien Miner was built in 7 days for Brackey’s Game Jam 2025.2. Read the full summary → cybernetks.be/brackeys-game-…

Risk it, bank it, escape it. Alien Miner is finished and submitted to Brackey’s Game Jam! 🎮 Try it here → cybernetks.itch.io/alien-miner

Day 5: The first level is now playable! Cleaned up test setups and crafted the level layout. Time to playtest, export, and ship the MVP. Read the log → cybernetks.be/brackeys-game-…

Day 4 of Brackey’s Game Jam: adding the missing piece! The game finally has a goal! Added end gates, respawn logic, a notification system, and a proper background. The loop feels complete now. Read the log: cybernetks.be/brackeys-game-…

Day 3 of Brackey’s Game Jam—and hazards are now live! Added UI for collected/banked coins, a reusable kill zone, and a bat enemy. MVP is shaping up fast. Read the log: cybernetks.be/brackeys-game-…

Day 2 of Brackey’s Game Jam 2025.2: I finally moved away from tutorial mode and started embracing the docs. Gems, a mechanical banker NPC, sounds, and a GameState singleton are now in the game. Next up: UI + hazards. Full day 2 log: cybernetks.be/brackeys-game-…

Kicked off Brackey’s Game Jam 2025.2 this weekend. Theme: Risk it for the biscuit. I’m building a mining platformer where you risk gems on dangerous paths but can bank them at checkpoints. Day 1 log: cybernetks.be/brackeys-game-…

Started diving into Godot’s scripting language with Brackeys’ GDScript intro. Python-like syntax, nodes everywhere, signals & groups… it feels really flexible to code with. I wrote up my first reflections + what’s next: cybernetks.be/learning-godot…

Wrapped up the Brackeys Godot Beginner tutorial ✅ Now straight into GDScript + Brackeys Game Jam 2025.2. Catch the full log here: cybernetks.be/first-steps-in… Anyone else excited for the game jam?

I’m expanding the studio to include tools, SaaS, and creative software — not just to entertain, but to solve real problems too. The latest log breaks it down: cybernetks.be/why-im-expandi… Code. Create. Play. One experiment at a time. #BuildInPublic #SoloDev #IndieDev #SaaS

Trying to onboard Steam as a developer / studio but the Tax Identification process is a pain 🙈

The Grid is live! I’ve been quiet here for a bit, heads down building Cybernetks. But now I’m opening up the doors to The Cybernetks Grid, our new Discord community. Developers and gamers can connect, share ideas, and collaborate. Come plug in: discord.gg/KfbErDfkud

I paired with a more experienced React dev this week—and took the driver seat. It was intimidating at first, but typing through the fear helped me learn more than any tutorial ever has. New log: cybernetks.be/the-power-of-p…

Inspired by @wesbos I added a Uses page to the site. It contains a simple list of the tools I use to build, code, and create cybernetks.be/uses/

I used to wait until I had the perfect time block to learn or build something. But “no time” turned into “no progress.” Today I broke the loop—with just 10 minutes. The Trap That Kept Me From Starting cybernetks.be/the-trap-that-… #DevLog #LearningInPublic #CodeCreatePlay
