I want to have my game get popular enough where I can mess with people by declaring various things canon or not. Yeah she's a lesbian now. That guy is trans. That guy is three kids in a trenchcoat. And that lady is actually a tree someone put makeup on. This is all canon now.

holy fricking flip we actually released a game

HEY YOUS!11! today we get a sneak peek at FRUITBEARER by @apexmangostudio.bsky.social and @coghdev.bsky.social We will play it all day, lock in and beat the shit out of the game so they have to change stuff before the release just because of us hehe join us in about 4h www.twitch.tv/annekus

Ansimuz, I know you've been around for a while, and I like and respect your art, but are you using an LLM to run your bsky account? πŸ˜‚

Loving the swirling, tornado-like motion on these animations! The 'Spiral Fire' effect adds so much energy and flow to the combat. #gamedev #pixelart #vfx

Gonna start posting some full release stuff for Fruitbearer soon. Are people on bsky interested in devlogs? I more associate them with YT but wanna try out making one.

I was recording this footage for funsies and the music and everything was kind of tough so I uploaded it. Anyways my game's pretty cool and you should probably peep it out. I don't use any AI and I'm a one lady team. #pixelart #gaming #indiedev

Annekus has a very fun stream, I recommend sharing your game :D

If you like roguelikes, merge games, or both, give Fruitbearer a try this Next Fest :) Mango and I poured our blood, sweat, and pixels into this project over the last few months. It's our first release together but with some luck we might be able to release a few more games :D

that said, as a gamer I'm thrilled. It's a new golden era for indie games and so many people are making so many awesome things. just best not to think about the money side of it. in it for the love of the game

Giving this a whirl. Please wishlist Fruitbearer! :) It's basically Suika Game with roguelike elements and funky synergies/combos. (also my first game with a proper release on Steam n stuff) Thanks!

Asking for wishlists continues to be the undisputed best way aside from festivals for me to get wishlists for my game. Of course, I only ask once every few months at most. There are probably diminishing returns here the more often you do it.

was working on this in like 2020 based on experiences breaking down fighting game mechanics when mentoring ppl started improving the art for it, but got discouraged when I found out about Shogun Showdown I'll probably still return to it at some point (also there was multiplayer) #gamedev

it sucks only having a few months runway (AKA rent and utilities), because I would love to return working on this, but I think it's a 2 year project and I just don't have the time for that
