Unity announced plans to show off Unity AI and generating entire games from nothing but AI prompts at GDC 2026.

Let's discuss the bigger picture of Unity AI, video game market saturation, visibility of video games, and game development becoming unsustainable.

Get the open-source library hereπŸ‘‡

It prioritises being engine-agnostic and should work with most modern .NET game engines.

The Dog said he was lonely, so I invited Chat to invade my game as Ducks πŸ¦†

I built a Twitch integration library which works with Godot 4.6 .NET C#.

Made to provide a bridge between your game and Twitch Chat chaos. Check it out below!

Game development can feel painfully slow, even when real progress is happening.

I made a video about why backend work can mess with our perception of progress and why you’ve probably made more than you think.

We all love a good game devlog, but there's something important not always talked about. Something not only relatable, but integral to indie game dev.

Whether you're a game dev or just love devlogs, check it out! πŸ”—πŸ‘‡πŸ»

Check out the game! It was one I was following the development of for awhile and a great game to chill to!

Massive shout out to @littlekittybigcity.bsky.social for sending me some awesome LKBC treats!

Huge fan of the hat that a poor unsuspecting Kitty will find themselves wearing 🎩 🐈

Not sure I can bring myself to se the Sticky Notes though…. They’re too adorable πŸ₯Ή

All I wanted to do was make my game prettier... but the game didn't like the sound of that...

Join me as I discuss the steps I've taken to try to improve the visuals of my game... all while my own game tries to kill me πŸΆπŸ¦‹

In a time where we’re always on the grind to create, remember to take some time out to look after yourself.

Burn out is real. Don’t let it affect you. You got this πŸ’ͺ🏻

It’s been a while! That’s because I’m stuck in my own game πŸ‘‹πŸ»

I’ve built a level loading system in Godot 4.3 using C# with some UI Shader magic to hide scene loading. But ever since I implemented it, things have gotten... weird. The transitions are seamless. Maybe too seamless…

I’m trapped.

Tried to make the tail-wagging animation more natural-looking using Blender's animation graphs! πŸ“ˆ

Knew to use them but haven't until now. Removed redundant keyframes and made animating that much easier 🐢

...okay... now onto walk cycles...

Finally been able to get back into game dev! Started off by finally making a rough tail wag! 🐢 I'll give it a little more TLC later down the line.

...dreading the walk cycle next...

Been busy the past few weeks with preparing to move! As such my game dev progress has come to a halt and it’s really grating on me haha.

Hoping to dive back in soon and share what I was up to last!
