Making menus for my game in Unity deserves its own difficulty setting. "New Game" for the player. Final boss for the developer. #gamedev
I played No Man’s Sky a few years ago and it was pretty good. This year I tried to play again, but there were too many things to do, too many new EVERYTHING. Is it time to move on?

How many household objects have to suffer before a monster gets a convincing sound effect? #gamedev
Now that Steam Next Fest is over, which demo are you still thinking about? Not the one with the longest feature list. The one that made you forget you were playing a demo. #SteamNextFest #gamedev
A button says 'Go' and the UI looks finished.
Then localization arrives with a word that needs its own parking space.
#gamedev
A gamedev's idea folder: 40 games that would each change the industry. A gamedev's current project: 4 finished features and a settings menu that doesn't open. #gamedev
The AI debate in Steam Next Fest keeps missing a step. 'Made with AI' covers everything from a fully generated game to one AI-assisted texture. Until we talk about how much and where, the complaints and the defenses are both shouting at shadows. #SteamNextFest #gamedev
Every indie game ships with at least one bug the developer officially renames 'a feature'. It's in the patch notes and everything. #gamedev
Next Fest devs, time to share the receipts. Drop your wishlist numbers below, from before the Fest and right now. Every number helps another dev calibrate their own. #SteamNextFest #indiedev
Next Fest tip: the real demo is the one you play for ten minutes, close, then spend three days thinking about. Wishlist that one. #SteamNextFest #gamedev
Every indie dev ships two games: the one in their head and the one on the Steam page. Wishlist Wednesday is when you find out how far apart they are. #WishlistWednesday #gamedev
Steam Next Fest devs: share your demo in the replies and I will help give it some visibility. I do not have a demo of my own, so I will have more time to check yours out. #SteamNextFest #indiedev
Steam Next Fest: 8,000+ demos, one week, players deciding in 30 seconds. AI helps everyone ship faster. It does not help anyone stand out among everyone else shipping faster. #gamedev #SteamNextFest
AI can write code, draw art and compose music for a game in minutes. It still cannot decide which of your 40 half-finished features is worth shipping. That job stays with the solo dev. #gamedev
