This solo indie dev is making a game where you clean old video game cartridges.

- Every cartridge is procedurally dirty
- Peel tape, remove stickers, clean grime
- No timer and no fail state

It's called Cozy Game Restoration. Would you play this?

Hey #indiegamedev friends. Keep your eyes peeled! 👀

Raise your hand if you know what this was used for.

[Cantankerous Games @cantankerousgms]

Well there goes our productivity. 🤦‍♂️ This is what happens when a grumpy old man runs the studio. 😉

Heartfelt and honest #IndieGameDev video about the journey of making #indiegames

Sometimes a finish line is just the start of another journey. 🕹️🤩

Love this take on friendly fire.

Is there a mechanic where there's an advantage to the team for finishing off a friend? Maybe an #IndieGameDev who works on shooters can figure that out. Thanks @JimSterling 😄

[Cantankerous Games @cantankerousgms]

Top 3:

1. Space Question
2. Police Quest
3. King’s Quest

Any thoughts?

Also, if I wanted an #indiegame that captures this vibe, what should I play? #gamedev

If you get this…Let’s be friends 😊

@charlieINTEL It’s tough sledding to get a game to market. Seems like studios need almost instant uptake to stay the course. Sad for the team, more sad about some of these comments. Geez people, empathy doesn’t cost anything. #gamedev

[Cantankerous Games @cantankerousgms]

Love this. I’ll add hours, days, weeks, months of prototyping late to realize…🤦‍♂️ This ain’t going to work. Then starting again. #indiegamedev

[Indie Game Joe @IndieGameJoe]

Game dev isn’t just “make a game.”It’s:

- Doubt
- Learning 12 jobs
- Sleepless nights
- Testing something 50 times just to break it again
- And still choosing to do it the next day.

That’s love. We make games because it's what we love to do. Keep going, keep learning!

[Indieformer @indieformer]

When you stream, post, or share a clip of a smaller game, odds are the dev sees it. For them, it’s not noise. It’s the moment their work becomes real.

Ok, so this is too good 👍

Wild #IndieGameDev video by @VoltekPlay . Being indie is hard enough without getting your work stolen 🤯 - happy to hear that they now have their game under control out on Android and iOS!

Simply a wonderful history of Burger Time! Lots to learn for aspiring #gamedev folks! Great job @SlopesGameRoom - Hey @BurgerKing - time to pick up the torch?

[Andrew Gilmour @MrAwolf]

Yeah.
I am going a bit mad.
I will be 56 in 4 days. That is 37 years of working in a job in gamedev, And 44 years of actually making games.
You would think I should be more successful , but I am not. I lost a lot of money these last few years.
But yet I am still here making fucking games.
“Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again, but expecting different results.”
still stuck in this fucking room.

HA
