Two-Headed Boy

Okay, I'm done.

The planning for NarraScope 2027 is underway! To kick things off, we'd like to introduce this year's conference committee: Diane Wang, Darya Ramezani, Hélène Lupa, Colette Zinna, Devinne Moses, Logan Clare, Andrew Plotkin, Jet Vellinga, and Cidney Hamilton. Check the full announcement on our blog:

Seeing someone ask, "robot, why do I love my child?" explains this moment with such depressing clarity that I'm not really sure what to do with the rest of my day.

AQ1 is on discount in the Itch Halloween sale. There are demons and shit in it, so I promise it fits. #gbstudio #gameboy #indiegame #retro two-headedboy.itch.io/academic-que...

Last call on RSVP’s for tomorrow’s NYC Godot User Group meet up!

Meet the baby I’ve been cooking up for the last year. Out next summer. Pre-orders soon!

Not the top Steam review of Dressmaker making me cry this morning!

I guess this is as good a time as any to announce my next project: Founding Fathers Afterlife Simulator! The Founding Fathers ask you a series of increasingly pointed questions about your patriotism. The only reply option is "Bitch, why did you own people?" Aiming for a summer '28 release.

I really need to write my "scholars should seek out stolen materials" article.

I got to play this a few weeks ago at GAAF. Fun and charming and really great art direction.

📣 INDIE GAMES DEVS! 📣 If you have a demo in Steam Next Fest and do not use gen AI, drop it in the comments below. I will repost! Let's create a thread where players can actually find our games! (Image courtesy of @kanaratron.bsky.social)

Soul Injector Commando was part of the same session as AQ1 during the recent Games as Art Festival. Very fun, very funny and worth checking out.

Serious question: what is a PS6 going to do that a PS5 can't?

My Souls build is shield/katana, and I won't apologize.

As I wrote in my most recent devlog, progress feels so slow on this project, as there are often very few visible changes day to day as I work on infrastructure. But I just had enemy units head for cover on their turn, and that was pretty fucking cool. #godot #indiedev

🎶Guess what I did🎶

Hitting my first real "I can refactor and do it right or I can just bolt the new code onto the side and it will probably be fine" moment in this project. #godot #indiedev

Games as Art fest was great! Met some really talented people and almost passed out in a Finnish sauna. Supposedly a photo exists of me giving my talk, but I haven't seen it!

Going to add a requirement to affirm my jokes are funny before you can download AQ1.

Someone saw me coding on the plane and wanted to talk about their AI agents. They work in an industry where data security is of paramount concern and when I asked about giving AI access to all that data, they didn't seem very concerned. Which made me much more concerned!

Dwarf Fortress creator Tarn Adams is as tired of genAI in the industry as anyone else, and is pretty set on never using it https://bit.ly/47cqGpr

The Games as Art Festival was incredible. Met a lot of talented folks from across the world and was honored to be in their company. Supposedly photos exist of me giving my talk, but I haven't seen them yet.

Preview of Academic Quest's PS5 version running on this. So excited 😍

GB Studio Magazine Volume 11 will be the last one released for the time being. Check out the details on our latest News post to get all the info. gbstudiocentral.com/news/volume-... #gbstudio #gameboy #magazine

Flashing a bunch of cartridges and preparing to talk about AQ1 this weekend has me missing working on the Game Boy. I am excited about The Big Project, but I will eventually need to take a break to do some weird GB work again.

Its time to walk through falling leaves and listen to Midwestern math rock... Pick up the tape, Gameboy Cart or downloadable ROM of Midwest Math chiptune album today! beatscribe.bandcamp.com/album/midwes... www.etsy.com/shop/Beatscr... #chiptune #emo #midwesternemo #capnjazz #mathrock #8bit

This month's devlog, in which I offer dubious understanding of the construction process and discuss refactoring the stuff I said I wasn't going to refactor last month. #gamedev #indiedev #godot twoheadedboy.games/devlog-2-on-...

John Carpenter did an NTS set yesterday: www.nts.live/shows/guests...

Stop trying to make AI happen and give us the fucking lightbulb computer.

A player found a few minor bugs in AQ1, so I've just pushed out a fix! #gbstudio #gameboy #homebrew #indie two-headedboy.itch.io/academic-que...

The theme of this year's drive is "treat it like it's ending"! (though obviously it's not) Because I think if there's going to be a big widespread groundswell of support for something it ought to be *before* it ends. pizzapranks.itch.io/indiepocalyp...

Indiepocalypse is one of THE true mainstays of (actual) independent and experimental video games. It's one of the few good game institutions we have left (though Andrew might balk at the 'institution' label). If you can, please consider supporting by sharing and/or donating to its Pledge Drive.

Has the most recent version of Firefox broken a bunch of websites for others? Pictures never loading, that sort of thing?

Personal attack.

The Indiepocalypse Pledge Drive is onto the next goal of 4 digits. ($1,000) Helping by spreading the word is just as important as pledging! I'm playing the long game here and more eyes on Indiepocalypse means more eyes on past and future contributors. pizzapranks.itch.io/indiepocalyp...

Did you release a Godot-made game in August/September and want to get it featured in the Nodeletter (Godot's official newsletter)? Let me know! We're also looking for any tools, open-source projects, or Godot-community efforts that you think users would want to know about.

Indiepocalypse is such an important part of the independent games community. Very few people are paying Actual Cash to support people making weird shit, but Andrew does just that!
