I added some face emotes to Tactichord's heroine, Diane. Decals go a long way in a PS2-style face #animation.

In Episode 4 of #EnduringPlay, a #GameDev podcast, @gamedeventura.bsky.social from @ichigoichiegames.bsky.social gets candid about the ups & downs of running indie studios; from the dark moments to the satisfaction of sustainable hours for quality games. Listen at enduringplay.com + other platforms!

David Ventura on Enduring Play: A Game Development Podcast hosted by Cheryl Platz, Season 1 Episode 4: "And yeah, we're not the biggest, most money returning studio in the world, but everybody can go home. There is no overtime really worked here. And then people leave at like 4:00, 4:30, 5:00 and they can be with their families or they can go do the things that they want to do outside of work hours. And I think we still produce pretty good content without having those situations. So it's entirely possible." Available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, enduringplay.com, and other platforms

In Tactichord we've added the targeting arcs you'll see in games like Fire Emblem.

You won't know which will attack as the enemy AI is not totally straightforward, but you can get an idea of roughly how much damage you'd take by charging into the map.

We've turned seven! In 2018 we started a dream to build new kinds of musical experiences on Nintendo Switch, and here we are 3 games, 15 plugins and more pull-requests than we can count later. To celebrate we had our studio featured in this month's issue of the venerable Edge Magazine.

Day 1 of #malmogameweek is complete! We had awesome players stop by to try the Tactichord battle of the bands challenge and it was tight until the end. Come by Malmö Mässan tomorrow when there will be a fresh competition and 2 game codes up for grabs.

It's another #screenshotsaturday so here's an odd one, in Tactichord: Glam Strategy you can pivot the camera to make sure you can take in all of the levels, letting you also see the characters from a different 2.5D perspective.

We had a guest visitor this month! Runners Club 95 producer Carl Carlsson stopped by to sign a copy of our #vaporwave vinyl and help out again with an upcoming game. You may remember the fan favorite #synthwave level by @RClub95 in our first title @hexagroove.
