The Khronos Group, the overseers of many open standards like OpenGL, Vulkan, OpenXR and more are currently looking to pay someone to improve OpenXR in Godot Engine.

Two interesting picks from Humble Bundle to go over for the weekend. First is the Down on the Farm bundle which has some sweet picks, plus one for game devs!

It just goes to show, that as challenging as it is for indie devs right now, there's still a whole lot of success stories. Buckshot Roulette is the latest to hit over a million sales.

Oh no, please no more, I have so little time as it is. Brotato: Abyssal Terrors has been announced as the first DLC for the excellent top-down arena shooter roguelite Brotato and it's full of goodies.

Mega Crit have announced Slay the Spire 2 during the Triple-I showcase, a game that no doubt will be exciting for many with how great the first is.

Always nice to see more developers open up their games. ROTA released back in 2022 is now not only free, but it's also been made open source by the dev.

Want a really simple but useful launcher to run GZDoom games? If you find other launchers not to your liking, or too complicated, maybe CleanDoom will be what you need.

Windowkill is a fantastic twin-stick shooter, where the game window is constantly shrinking on you and enemies spawn across multiple windows. It's truly clever and now it has full customization available via the newly introduced modding support.

Buckshot Roulette has made the jump from itch.io to Steam, and it seems like it's hitting the mark for a lot of players as it quickly gained an Overwhelmingly Positive rating.

Cozy Space Survivors is an upcoming simple cozy time survival roguelite in space, a game for people who don't have all that much free time.

Released into Early Access today is Of Life and Land (prev called Circle of Kerzoven), a settlement-building game from developer Marco Burri made in Godot.

The fantastic monster collection game Cassette Beasts is adding in online multiplayer, with a Beta available now with the full update due out on May 20th.

Back in July 2023 I wrote about Lost For Swords, a roguelike deck-builder, where the cards in your deck shape the rooms you’re exploring. It was properly good fun and now it has a Native Linux demo too!

Polychroma Games and Maximum Entertainment have announced the cinematic narrative adventure Until Then is going to release on May 23rd.

Backpack Battles, one of my current — uh, fixations shall we say, has managed to blow away expectations on Steam selling over 500,000 copies in only two weeks of Early Access.

Roblox and the Unreal Editor for Fortnite sure are popular, but you know what would be better? An open source project, where creators can actually own what they make rather than being attached to Roblox and Fortnite. The Mirror wants to change that.

If you enjoyed the idea in Backpack Hero with inventory management, you may want to also take a look at the new Backpack Battles which has a similar basic theme but puts you in PvP battles against other players and it's proven to be quite a hit.

Need a new city / villager builder and love everything simulated to be a bit more alive? Keep an eye on Of Life and Land that hits Early Access on April 2nd.

Thrive is a free and open source evolution sim from Revolutionary Games Studio that's currently in-development, and a new release has rolled out with v0.6.5 bringing some gameplay additions.

This might be one of the most unique games I've ever played. Windowkill from torcado just released on Steam with Native Linux support and its use of multiple moving windows really changes the bullet-hell genre.
