Im sure that you can make an interesting and nuanced RPG based around interesting and unique fantasy themes, but I'm a simple man.

My game has people in armour with swords, killing goblins...

Sometimes they're classics for a reason.

Indie devs, is it worth having a trailer for my demo specifically or just settling with an older announcement trailer?

‪I spent ages wondering what was missing from my new expedition map that I painstakingly developed...

After a few weeks I realised that I had sprite shadows off...

Boy does gamedev sometimes make me feel like a moron.

I've escaped from my computer screen to get all grimy in the wilderness instead of my office for a while...

I heard from a reliable source that it's me, I'm the best person to follow!

You don't hunt for the light at the end of the tunnel, one day it just appears!

Imagine looking at affordable consumer prices and thinking "this is bad for us"

AI is a tool, not using a tool does not make your product better than one that does use it.

I've got some characters with pretty large knockers... does that count

My least favourite part of solo development is going away for a holiday and feeling guilty for taking time away from my game...

Is this a noise multiplier? Love how it adds that natural variation?
