As creator of said game: You should support indies if you can, but culture shouldn't exist only for those who can afford it. ULTRAKILL wouldn't exist if I hadn't had easy access to movies, music and games growing up. If you don't have money, you can support via word of mouth.

Even the more business-minded people around can recognise that if you pirate a game, then enjoy it, spread word about it and get someone else to buy it, that's at worst an equal trade, at best an additional sale that wouldn't have happened if you hadn't pirated it.

I love how common themed art days are, especially for japanese artists. Just wake up in the morning and Oh it's Maid Day? Awesome, I get to see my faves in maid dresses! Oh it's Glasses Day? Awesome, I get to see my faves with glasses! Oh it's Suck-and-Fuck Friday? Awesome, I get.

I love it when a new character I’ve never seen before starts appearing on my timeline and I get to start piecing together who they are just from patterns and inference. Like I’m a detective, except all the clues are really horny fanart.

So sad that ULTRAKILL has been installed on 0 computers so far.
Unity will soon charge devs per-install after a certain threshold. I'd like to express my concerns regarding privacy (tracking installs/downloads), preservation and changing the whole business model while devs are using the engine for their projects. 🫤.

The most difficult moral choice I've ever had to make in a video game was having to decide between hugging Ralsei and giving a middle finger for the photo in the acid tunnel of love. This is artificial difficulty because in real life I would just do both at the same time.

Up'n'comin indie developers: Please don't neglect your primary gameplay loop. Even if you mainly want to focus on story, visuals or atmosphere, you need to still make the core gameplay at least decent, because that's 90% of your game, so if 90% of your game isn't good. .

Some people are vehemently against games-as-a-service while also adamant that game developers should act like in a service industry, complete with empty PR talk and fake smiles when being yelled at. I don't even see rudeness in the comment, just a lack of patronization.
Helldivers 2 boss apologizes for "horrible" dev comments, says Arrowhead has "taken action internally to educate our developers."

Franz Kafka lacked confidence in his writing to the extent that on his deathbed he asked for all of it to be burned. Instead, the works that were released became so influential that the english language got a new word just to describe them. Don't be ashamed of your art.

Toby Fox solved the problem of trying to explain what’s going to happen in your story, realising it sounds really dumb when said out loud and having to go ”just trust me, it’ll be cool”.

I'll revise and say your gameplay loop needs to just not be *bad*. Like, look at all the RPG Maker classics whose entire gameplay is just walking and interacting. Unless you're making a roguelike. PLEASE don't make a roguelike unless you have a really good core gameplay loop.

In ULTRAKILL, the chainsaw is programmed to target whichever limb you're directly aiming at, but in the current build, we didn't specify that it had to belong to the enemy you're actually hitting. This is how I found out that headless Strays are very indecisive.

Discovering things yourself is fun. No one's amazing when starting off. Let people play their own way and learn at their own pace. There's a reason the game doesn't just have pop-up tutorials for these things. You can put this tweet on your stream to tell people to fuck off.
I felt like i had to make a quick psa after watching multiple streams where chat was being backseat andys unprompted.#ultrakill . Please let people experience the wonder of discovering some cool tech on their own
