I don't really use this account anymore, but I'm sharing the news that I've been impacted by the recent Ubisoft Layoffs of the Xdefiant team.

My brain is currently stuck in a loop thinking about a theoretical TTRPG where the combat is like smash bros. I don’t even really know what that means or what it would look like, it’s just stuck in my head like a song.

Finally announced a public demo for the game I’ve been working on the past few years!
You're an exterminator. You kill things for a living. One month from today, it'll be time to get to work. Demo coming September 28th. Link in replies!

The game developer community is just really full of positive people. Especially in the indie scene. Everyone supports each other. There's a good vibe everywhere. They just want each other's games to do well. You're all an inspiration!🥰

I love how this design mimics the cacophony of "exterminate"s you get when a group of Daleks are on screen.

RTS Games are for a long time something I've felt had had questionable victory/loss conditions. So great to see a breakdown like this of some common ones. The only one I'd really like to add is C&C Rivals Nuclear Missile I think did an amazing job of back and forth tension.
An exploration of how RTS are won, why the default win condition is so hard to top, and how some games try to solve the problem of what it means to win and lose. waywardstrategy.com/2023/07/…
