Alex M-O | Wishlist Rune Fencer Illyia!

me explaining to people why i go to bed so late

when you think about it, game development is simply a series of implementing lil guys door prefab? thats a lil guy new light source? a lil guy logic for flagging steam achievements? believe it or not, a bunch of lil guys

I don't think I would ever consider bringing a drink to an interview as a potential red flag for a candidate unless it was blood or some kind of dark elixir, and even then having a vampire or warlock on the team could be really cool

counterstrike adding a chicken-raising simulator to the game is insane

I think we should get rid of horoscopes and do which-halberd-are-you quizzes instead

something about nails

the odyssey releases in theaters in Japan today I know this because on tv they'll show the big epic cinematic trailer and then end it with *9/11* on a black screen

"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!

Feel free to add Nootbox Games to this list. We're making the upcoming game Rune Fencer Illyia - and since the beginning, we have always completely rejected genAI. We have rejected publishing contracts that would not respect this viewpoint.

Pretty sure this goes without saying, but Rune Fencer Illyia does not and will NEVER contain anything with genAI. #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #ドット絵

I animated a sticker for when you ban a Discord scam bot

I was reading the new google TOS email and I almost gasped when I saw this they really just said 'You don't want everything you have scraped by ai? then fuck off'

illyia no! he was literally a miner #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev

dodging all the important looking email notifications on my phone #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev

forever-early-access and live service games have done an immeasurable amount of damage. To many, games are no longer allowed to be 'finished'.

Absorbed Runes can boost Illyia's movement, too! Just think of it as a bit of a bow-nus #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev

RE that RT.. it’s wild how steam reviews are still so damn important to getting visibility. If you play and like indie games, the most generous and helpful thing you can do is spend an hour popping positive reviews onto anything you like with <500 or so reviews.
