You're a dad is in #SteamNextFest right now! It's weird to see that the little text adventure about being a parent is growing up. Me and @sprainedtootsie.dev are keen to here all of your feedback so we can improve it!

CJ from Pause & Effect spent some time with You're a dad, and I really enjoyed seeing how he approached the game. He will be covering a bunch of fun demos from #SteamNextFest in the coming days - looking forward to that!
My Steam Next Fest coverage has started! I played the demo for You’re A Dad by @linusbohman.bsky.social and @sprainedtootsie.dev! I dunno if this game helps me understand fatherhood, but the writing made me laugh, and I had fun playing it! Enjoy the video! youtu.be/lpWBKgGyOmo?...

#SteamNextFest is here and You’re a dad has an updated demo ready to play! I am very proud of all the work that has gone into it. I believe this is both @linusbohman.bsky.social and I’s first SNF event, and I can’t wait to see how it goes♥️

I'm working on the new Steam trailer for You're a dad. Any feedback? It's hard to make a text game visually appealing, but my hope is that we can hint at the story and the feel of the game: youtu.be/JdGVZ11eVFI
This week I'll release the new art on Steam! Yay!

I'm a 40 year old dude learning game development. Practically ancient. An unexpected side effect is finding cool twitch streamers. Never watched a stream before, but now I really like it! Here are some you should follow. (Yep, this is a thread I hope to update over time.)

At the end of each day in You're a dad your family pops by for a visit. Serve them dinner! Unless you forget, or get caught in antics. (So happy with the way @sprainedtootsie.dev's art breathes life into the game!) #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

My wife and I just had our first outing on our own since we got our second kid two years ago. Gamedev, projects, work and hobbies in all their glory - sometimes I "forget" what life is truly about. Friends, family, making the most of the time we have. It was a lovely night.

The entire family has been ill the past two weeks. We've been doing it asynchronously - first the son, then the daughter, then the wife, then me. Now the daughter is ill again. Here's hoping we can abort the Promise of the next one getting ill so the family can have its energy back.

Something has been locked up in your fridge in You're a dad. It's a big eye. Why is it there? Will it eat your family? Do big eyes have teeth? Does it fit in a ball? Good questions. #screenshotsaturday

Life has been intense the past weeks, so I haven't had much time to work on You're a dad. Still! Happy to say that I'm exploring a change of art direction. Hired some artists for test illustrations, and began brushing up my own skills as a fallback. Hope to commit to a direction next week.

Skippity Rock is a #hyper-casual mobile #game where you try to skip a rock from platform to platform to gain the highest score while collecting stars to shop with. If you miss the platform, your rock will sink and you’ll have to start over. It’s relaxing, and more importantly a lot of fun.
