What engine is it? I would say Unity, but it is unusually clean. UE?
Every day brings new analyses of the AI bubble: the overinvestment in data centers, the lack of profits, the unreliability of LLMs, the impact on energy and the environment… Yet nothing and nobody can hit the brakes. The financial market is a runaway train and we are all passengers.
See the shape of the objects in the picture? They are not all rectangles, they are like Tetris pieces. That way you add complexity to your setup.
Nice FF7 vibes!
Hi! Human being here, and fellow developer, listening to the void ☺️ I haven't play your game but since it's an inventory management game, wouldn't be a bit more "spicy" if you go over rectangular shapes? Look what Dredge did as an example.
Those boxes are well glued together!
Now attach a physical particle to each voxel and activate it from top to bottom in layers and watch your face melt 😱
The CEO might have the controlling share of the company but, without revenues, they can be manipulated by pulling the plug on investments. I have seen a few CEOs do the bidding of investors because strapped for cash.
Not quite right, most private companies have private investors and sometime is even worse because you are not forced by law to disclose informations, so all the health of the company is kept behind closed door.
I don't believe that every CEO is evil, especially in smaller companies. However, I saw with my own eyes how pitches are designed to attract money from people who don't care about games, and how they do it? By inflating the returns. When that inevitably doesn't happen, investors pull the plug.

We, the developers, should stop selling studios to these people. Stay private and don't grow too fast, so you don't have to ask for funding. Build on top of what you earn from your games alone.

The legal landscape for game accessibility has changed. GPSR requires safety, EAA requires accessible comms & ecommerce. The deadlines are upon us, but many devs remain unaware. If you don't know about these laws yet, you need to! Info: igda-gasig.org/what-and-why... #gamedev #indiedev
Guys! Wishlist link in the description!
After 20 years I consider it addiction.
It’s true
Happy to help a fellow developer with playtesting.
Sure buddy. At least, read what you post. "On the other end of the prediction spectrum, there’s the CEO of Anthropic, who thinks we’re right on the threshold—give it about 6 more months or so."
Hello tiny horse ❤️
Happy birthday, see you at 40! ☺️
Demo?
Seriously, if only a fraction of these CEOs would understand how AI works and what it can do, they would not spend a single minute listening to this capitalistic pipe dream to replace the employees. Translating an Italian saying: "Lots of squeals and little wool - said he who tried to shear a pig."
I can't just put into words my thoughts on LI. Let's just say I came here to keep my sanity.
I guess that "professional job applicant" will be a thing now that we can take the likeness of anybody. venturebeat.com/games/akool-... #ai #job #dystopia
Isn't that the Wikipedia definition of marketing? 😂
LucasArts vibe 💛
Nice little game and well polished, considering it's a jam. I like the mechanics, and I would keep developing because it could become an interesting game. Little request, please add a key button to fire without the mouse.
TBF, I think Futurama too used old toy starships as a reference ☺️
Futurama vibe!
Have you tried a low-res shader on the game? I think would look even better with a bit of pixelated vibe 💛
It's a matter of market size. Steam is the biggest pool for PC games. An indie can't survive without a presence there, simple.
At this point, I would be happy with "don't be a d*ck".
Even parrots like to WFH. Only employers are bitching about it.
I scrolled over this post, then my brain told me "wait, there is something wrong up there!", so I went back. Yeah, mango and coffee together are indeed f-up 😝
It will cost you 0 to RT our work 🥔
The best part of being older is that I don't really care what they think of me, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart ❤️😘
Cutest satanic ritual ever!
Trans men’s insight on this is so fucking valuable in understanding the nuances of what’s going on with men. We need to be amplifying them, and hopefully cis men can realize what is actually the source of their loneliness.
Okay, first post here on BlueSky. Honestly, I’m just glad to be somewhere that isn’t LinkedIn. That place feels like a never-ending convention of self-proclaimed gurus and buzzword enthusiasts. The louder the pitch, the fuzzier the facts. We’re living in a Dunning-Kruger dystopia.
Seriously, I don't even understand why this info are circulating. Sure, a bunch of junior and a few hundreds dollars on fiver and anyone can make a game like this... except, it took 400 people to make it and the management was *really* senior to handle all of that. www.mobygames.com/game/241065/...
