I've written a chunky post about my ideas and challenges I see for the design of the Liblast Framework.

The Liblast Project aims to build a framework for making FPS games and produce an FPS game called Liblast.

For all that to work, we need a lot of educated, forward-looking design decisions.

I am taking inspiration from the Quake/Source engine family, but also from Liblast legacy game and other work I've done.

Please chime in 😀

Today's our bi-weekly Future Proof Plays stream, and Gregory is playing Blackwood Crossing. It's turning out to be far more surreal and creepy than I expected, and it has CWs for grief, loss, sibling tension, and maybe jump scares? We aren't sure about the jump scares. Anyway, Gregory is very good at talking about game design, so come join us. 😻 https://twitch.tv/gregoryaveryweir/

simple:

A game made by one or multiple "independent developers" aka. neither access to resources nor funding by big publishers and/or developers.

Meaning <100 people (if we count in all bought-in assets and playtesters) may and usually <10 people (employed directly or indirectly) and a budget <€ 1M.

Anyhing above is #SmallStudio and not #IndieDev!

Hey, I'm Kae (they/them)!

I'm a solo dev that works in Gamemaker, Aseprite and FLStudio. Working away at Project Harvest, a murder mystery adventure game. I love horror, monsters and dark tunes~ 🎵

#Introduction #Gamedev #Indiedev #PixelArt #GameMaker


“87% of games released before 2010 are no longer commercially available – and it’s a huge loss for the art form”

https://www.theguardian.com/games/2023/jul/12/pushing-buttons-playing-old-video-games

It’s a good reason to open source your games once their commercial long tail had expired.

I'm trying to make Liblast playable in the browser, but I am having trouble configuring the site to provide required headers.

https://play.libla.st

I'm hosting using nginx.

Can anybody help me satisfy these secure context requirements?
