Took a break from the project I should be working on for a little side quest. I've wanted to try making a desktop idle game for a while now.

Little Desktop Runner sits on your desktop and is about going for runs and slowly improving.

Wishlists appreciated!

Little Desktop Runner is a short set-and-forget incremental idle game about going for runs that sits on your desktop while you do other things. Travel further each run, slowly reaching the ultimate go...

After not getting as much sleep as I'd have liked, I'm all done with my submission for the PULS GAME JAM

Got to make an idea I've had rattling around for a while since it fit the theme (Kaputt) well enough.

A short metroidvania where you've forgotten the basics

You said it, it's nice to finally know, even if it wasn't the result we would've liked. All the best to the lucky folks!
I'm so grateful to finally have some clarity on our PressStart application. No luck for us, but I'm still so impressed that we even had such a cool opportunity. Looking forward to see what the Stipendiaten make!

Anyone else noticed these accounts that only repost and have AI generated profile pics & banners?

I want to make a personal appeal for the beautiful new game of Palestinian gamedev @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social. As nobody will fund a game about the 1948 Nakba, Rasheed is crowdfunding via launchgood.com/1948. I've been doing production advice on the game pro bono, and it deserves to exist.

Heads up for Godot devs: Firefox hasn't been playing nice with Godot embeds, so Itch has made Godot games launch a pop-up on Firefox.

If your game is password-protected, this will throw a 404 error.

Do not password-protect your Itch games if you use Godot or Firefox users won't be able to play.

Last night I got to see Fat Freddy's Drop play here in Munich, real cool to get to see a band from my birth country play in my new home country :>

They killed it, was a sick set!

Some accounts mentioned they hover over a Bsky profile to see the Steam link of a game. Otherwise they don't interact with the profile at all.

❌ Usually full url of your game looks like this:
store.steampowered.com/app/3290400/...

✅ Short version:

Attention, game devs on Steam: Not only the games themselves need an age rating in Germany to appear, also the DEMOS need one, or else they will be gone without a trace! Apparently, it's also NOT SUFFICIENT to inherit the age rating from the main product. Best check!

Woo wee that's a lot of #Steam wishlists for Spud Customs! We are only 11 away from cracking into three digits and our first 100 wishlists.

Give us a #wishlist if you can spare the bandwidth in this economy, or repost if you're running on fumes: store.steampowered.com/app/3291880/...

Lazy Sunday? Want something chill but challenging to play? Why not give Stig a go? There’s a demo available if you want to try before you buy!

Progress from the demo is transferred to the main game, so there’s nothing to lose by playing both 😊
