I make games. Member of GameDev Técnico. I go by he/him 🏳️🌈
@diogo-m.bsky.socialAlso, losing so much im *a demo* is crazy. What's the best case scenario here? Either no one plays the game and you wasted money for nothing. Or The demo goes viral, everyone plays the game, and you go completely bankrupt
@diogo-m.bsky.social"all my apes gone" level of loser lmao
@diogo-m.bsky.socialVery cool to be living through a concerted effort to undermine and destroy all artistic mediums. Very cool. But hey, at least you can finally play your dream game of *checks notes* a corridor shooter set in space

P.I.G.E.O.N. is a short surrealist visual novel RPG in which you become a pigeon, armed with a camera, sent to spy. You will have to make choices, but you won't always be able to make a choice.
@diogo-m.bsky.socialWe know vibecoders et. all are larpers by nature, but even they surely won't be entertained by this for long enough for their rent to make this profitable right? right...?
@diogo-m.bsky.socialLike, who is this for, even? "Corridor shooter set in space" is not a game. Give it to any player and they will be bored of it within seconds. They are not selling a game making tool, they are selling a "pretend like you are a game dev" toy on a rent.
@diogo-m.bsky.socialReally sucks that unity is a legitimately good engine in the hands of an extremely idiotic corporation
@vincentlalune.bsky.socialReposted by @diogo-m.bsky.socialI'm overjoyed to announce, along with @ggidshow.bsky.social, @diogo-m.bsky.social and @afonsoferreira.bsky.social, to name but a few, the launch of the first game development cooperative in Portugal, @fluthergames.bsky.social
@diogo-m.bsky.socialAfter some months and a lot of work, we're finally saying hello world 👋 In this dire age for the gaming industry, we are trying something a bit different. Come with us on this journey, there are so many games yet to make.
As lights come together, some day they'll be enough to erase the darkness. We are Fluther Games, a game cooperative. We make video games and provide related services. We aim to increase the value we create by fostering our members' creativity, valuing development time and dialogue.
@itshannahflynn.bsky.socialReposted by @diogo-m.bsky.socialLet's talk about naming your video game! This is something I come back to with teams over and over again. Naming is really hard. A decent name is hard to find, and a bad one will really make it hard for people to remember your game. Here are some tips.
@diogo-m.bsky.socialWill try, ty
@diogo-m.bsky.socialReally wish websites would stop assuming I'm brazilian just cause I speak portuguese. My discover feed is choke full of local brazilian knews that mean nothing to me
@diogo-m.bsky.socialGo play. This is not negociable, the game is free, you have no excuse.
@barkingbeaglest.bsky.socialReposted by @diogo-m.bsky.socialP.I.G.E.O.N. IS OUT ON STEAM
For as long as we breath, we shall remain free. We hope this serves as a reminder of the fight still left but also of the community who makes it worth fighting for.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
@diogo-m.bsky.socialOne week till we release! Everyone go wishlist | | | \ / ˇ
