It begun as a 10-day jam game, and over ~6mo working part-time, it involved into something beautiful. Our #indie game (cc @pixel_data) isn’t officially announced yet, but after recent feedback from cool folks I'm more comfortable sharing our progress. All done in @unity

Hard to get excited for Steam Machine when I’ve already got my scruffy mini-itx (card for size) 5700X /32GB / 4060Ti / 2TB NVMe built for under $700. Took it to an expo and ran our game in 4K60 like a champ. If you’re an indie dev making a game, give me stickers!
I absolutely love how Valve embraces modding and self expression. From hiring modders, to Half-Life mods, to opening Steam for indies, to SteamOS, to customizable Steam Machine faceplates. Decades later they’re still championing openness. That spirit never left.

I've included the first lines of @LeonieJanaS as Alice and mudge as Baron von Protz in my game Temple of the Three Rules! It's amazing how much personality they have now! (Sorry, one speech line is missing in this video.) #Game #IndieGame #Retro

I spent nearly an entire Saturday animating the side walk of Baron von Protz for my #AdvXJam2024 entry Temple of the Three Rules. Animating can be time consuming! Thankfully @DuckMadeOfWood joined my team and handled the rest. #retro #game #animation #indie #indiegame

We are a tiny #indie #gamedev team creating a game that mimics the aesthetics of Greek Shadow Theater. How about a quick look at its history? This is often referred to as Karagiozis or Karaghiozis (Greek: Καραγκιόζης [karaˈɟozis]; Turkish: Karagöz [kaɾaˈɟœz]).

Made a prototype for a game jam along with @pixel_data, and we're now making a proper short game out of it! It's a hand drawn adventure game based on Greek shadow theater! Steam page incoming (1-2 weeks)

@LucasfilmGames @devolverdigital @grumpygamer please allow fellow Greeks and their kids to enjoy your upcoming game by adding Greek localization. Previous publishers ignored unofficial translations for Secret of Monkey Island, Grim Fandango, Loom and Indiana Jones. Be different.
