It’s kinda satisfying. #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGames06 Sep 2026 19:54 +0000at://did:plc:hoejzc6n4eusprlv52gebjia/app.bsky.feed.post/3muurjefesc27https://bsky.app/profile/itstheem.bsky.social/post/3murnbavarc22After watching a lot of people play the demo, I realized there’s a spectrum of ways people interact with things. From what I saw, these differences didn’t seem tied to any particular demographic. It’s so interesting, but it also makes designing new mechanics even more challenging. #GameDesign05 Sep 2026 14:00 +0000at://did:plc:hoejzc6n4eusprlv52gebjia/app.bsky.feed.post/3murnbavarc22https://bsky.app/profile/itstheem.bsky.social/post/3muphthrki22zMy first Gamescom and my game’s first demo showcase! I met amazing people, watched them play and react, and talked with them about the game. Now I can say all the effort before and during Gamescom was worth it! #Gamescom202604 Sep 2026 17:17 +0000at://did:plc:hoejzc6n4eusprlv52gebjia/app.bsky.feed.post/3muphthrki22zhttps://bsky.app/profile/itstheem.bsky.social/post/3ms4lqmnsz22qThe box demands an umbilical connection. #IndieGame #IndieDev #GameDev02 Aug 2026 18:16 +0000at://did:plc:hoejzc6n4eusprlv52gebjia/app.bsky.feed.post/3ms4lqmnsz22qhttps://bsky.app/profile/itstheem.bsky.social/post/3mrastjqzjc2tI’ve spent an unreasonable amount of time on these tiny procedural rod movements just to make fishing feel a little better. #IndieGame #IndieDev #FishingGame #WishlistWednesday22 Jul 2026 17:09 +0000at://did:plc:hoejzc6n4eusprlv52gebjia/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrastjqzjc2thttps://bsky.app/profile/itstheem.bsky.social/post/3mqsrqb3rpk2vI wrote my first Steam announcement post for my game.
