Well, I think it's time to stop being kinda ashamed by this so let's share it with the world: I am gifted and also highly sensitive.

I'll explain a little bit more of what that means (for me) in this thread.

In case I pin it, I'll also add: A loving heart is the truest wisdom.

Four souls share one girl's body and only one can stay.

- A horror adventure game where dialogue is central
- Question each soul and weigh what it tells you

The better you know them, the harder it gets

It's called UN:Me. Any interest?

If you call yourself a creator, you must at the very least feel a sense of aversion toward the idea that your work might turn out to be "mediocre."
And if you're not a genius, you shouldn't skimp on the effort it takes to avoid that.

@Lorango_Tango All I can say is,
never follow thad trends and think more deeply about a/the project than anyone else does. That’s all. These may seem simple, but they’re things most people try to do but can’t.

[Subi @Ssr1368]

Welp.

[伊藤暢達/Masahiro Ito @adsk4]

Creature concepts I drew around the same time, in 2017.

[伊藤暢達/Masahiro Ito @adsk4]

1. First, I rule out designs that are trendy or that people are likely to like.

2. I think there are various ways to approach that, and I don’t have a specific method of my own.

3. The key is not to follow the trends.

That's all.

@RedbubbleHelp I signed up and did not receive the 25% discount code. Can you help me? Thank you

[sebastian castillo @bartlebytaco]

they're making wellness videos about playing video games on your couch, that's how bad phone has gotten

[Subi @Ssr1368]

@_marcinek12 @KatDoes3D No, theorists are not good and unfortunately it’s a common problem among game designers. But not having a method and just doing things unprofessionally is also a common problem among game designers. A mix of both approaches is required imho.

[Subi @Ssr1368]

@KatDoes3D + watch the old Extra Credits videos (at least until the one about the “Ma”).
+ play games as a designer, not as a gamer. My gf is fed up with me assessing the non-return-points on every level

[Subi @Ssr1368]

@tabinokino @cxgonzalez I am a 2200 rated player. 15 years ago I realized that everyone on my level spent >12h studying every opponent. Plus studying positions and plans for every little thing, and keeping up with updates weekly. Not doing that meant not having a chance against them. I didn’t. 0 regrets

This might be the best Nintendo DS top game list I have ever seen. It even recognizes the mastery of Hotel Dusk: Room 215.

[Best Indie Games @clemmygames]

This japanese indie developer is making a dark fairytale horror adventure game inspired by Alice in Wonderland.

It's called Don’t Return to Wonderland, are you interested?

[Best Indie Games @clemmygames]

An indie developer is making a super cozy title where you run an intergalactic brewing business as space racoons, exploring alien planets in search of rare ingredients.

It's called Coffee Raccoons, are you interested?

[Best Indie Games @clemmygames]

Indie developers be like: Here you go, a roller coaster in your action platformer.

It's called isekizima Ruins and Tails Journey and is content complete, so me might yet see it in Q2 2026. Who's in?

[R.Сам 🦋🐏 @Logo_Daedalus]

People have no idea that all of this is available on archive dot org for free, like every other old children’s show which isn’t a funnel for developing a gambling addiction. You can just watch all of these 90s Beatrix Potter adaptations right here: https://t.co/OklEKfHHNo
