Bee Space celebrates World Bee Day today! The bees are very important to our ecology to pollinate our plants. Please Bee-Kind to your local bees! #WorldBeeDay #SaveTheBees #BeeSpace #IndieGames #GameDev

@TheRealMannapi I think they add a lot. Really make the characters pop and fit well with the stylized look.

I added a depth based Rim Light to our game. Its a custom Render Feature controlled by object layers. I think it works pretty well to separate the character from the background. What do you think? #MadeWithUnity #BeeSpace #ScienceBee

@KenneyNL I was working on some icon for our space bees in the Cozy deckbuilder we are working on. x.com/i/status/20375…

What are you working on right now? Show me (and us)!

I was working on creating some character icons for our game Bee Space. We are using white sticker like outlines for a lot of UI and highlighting. They turned out pretty nice don't you think? #indiegames #madewithunity #gamedev #cozy

I don't understand what the fuss is all about.

Life is a beach! I added tiny beaches to our game. The islands are generated procedurally so I needed to figure out how to detect the beaches and how much to push the vertices out. #gamedev #indiegames #beespace #beachlife #madewithunity

Our amazing artists Vikar Mar and Willem create some great retro 80s bee characters for our game Bee Space. #indiegames #artwork #gamedev #beespace

This was not quite the result I was aiming for. Enter the HypnoBee! #gamedev #BeeSpace #hypnotic #friday

Happy Friday everyone! 🐝 Leaving you with some concept art from our art director, Vikar Mar—human artifacts you’ll discover in the cozy game we’re working on, Bee Space. #indiegame #deckbuilder #cozy

We have been adding characters to our cozy deckbuilder. This is our shopkeeper. Say hello to my little friend!

A blockbuster Reuters report by Jeff Horwitz analyzes leaked internal documents that reveal that: 10% of Meta's gross revenue comes from ads for fraudulent goods and scams, and; the company knows it, and; they decided not to do anything about it, because... 1/

I’m a psychiatrist. In 2025, I’ve seen 12 people hospitalized after losing touch with reality because of AI. Online, I’m seeing the same pattern. Here’s what “AI psychosis” looks like, and why it’s spreading fast: 🧵

@zellah For testing, review and development purposes, yes. I imagine you will get a rejection if you request massive amounts of keys before publishing to a steam store page.

@freyzor Oh cool, I may have misread the docs then. So you're saying you can distribute the with Steam without having a coming soon page on Steam?

What's the best way of distributing an alpha test version of a Unity game for Windows? I currently don't have a Steam page, so I don't think I can use Steam. Itch io seems to have a 1-2gb files size limit🤔

3rd interstellar object discovered? Maybe. There's a lot of buzz right now in the Astro community. More observations should come in tonight to confirm if A11pI3Z is from beyond the solar system.

Cloudflare CEO @eastdakota is having the most honest conversations I've come across about the current & future of content creation "6 months ago, 75% of queries to Google get answered on Google. Which means if you're an original content creator, your content is getting summarized & sold (they still put ads there), but you don't get that traffic. And that's the good news. It used to be that for every 2 pages G scraped, you would expect 1 visitor. 6 months ago that deteriorated to 6 pages scraped to get 1 visitor. Today the traffic ratio is: for every 18 pages Google scrapes, you get 1 visitor. What changed? AI Overviews If the business model of the web has been search, fundamentally, for the last 35 years. You get value by subscriptions, ads, or fame. All 3 of those things are going away, and they are going away fast. And that's STILL the good news. What's the ration for OpenAI? 6 months ago it was 250:1. Today it's 1,500:1. What's changed? People trust the AI more, so they're not reading original content. People aren't following the footnotes. So if you believe the business model of original content creation is driving people to that content... I just have a really bad story for you. The future of the web is going to be people reading the summaries of content, not the original. What I'm worried about is - if you can't sell subscriptions or monetize ads or get the ego boost from people reading your stuff, why anyone is going to create content?"
