Howdy people. I had this account for a while, but I just started to do more here than play games.
Hello, let me jump into this 10 year old thread and just say I am now considering myself an indie game developer, I guess. I am a content creator but not here to promote that really, I have been coding casually and sometimes for money since I was about 10 (I am now almost 42 which should be a meaningful year), I've completed 2 Super Mario World ROM Hacks including one with lots of custom ASM, and I have now started in on a sort of dream project (finishing a game is the first step lol), it is in C++ and I am building the engine myself using SDL2 and lots of time on my linux mint laptop, as well as keeping windows in mind on my favorite material belonging (my PC).
I am unearthing this old account, I might post some other random stuff from Unity that I want to just put out there, but for now enjoy my technically completed games that were mostly made for game jams, and never picked up where I left off. And eventually I will reveal more about this project as I actually design it, but it is inspired by the rogue-[like/lite] genres, and also Xenogears which is the best retro game of all time, no question. But I hate to draw comparisons to other games, so I will get a demo out and let people make their own conclusions.
Hello, I'm a new game dev.
I've decided to try different genres as a hobby because I needed to distract myself from own mind.
These last weeks have been fun!
I also like to play games (RPG, Visual Novel, action, hackslash...)
Unfortunately, I'm stupid, so I uploaded my first game on a new account and the page has been put under quarantine.
Hello everyone!
I am a pixel artist from Brazil, and I joined here to meet new people, expand my portfolio and get to work! Up to now, most of my digital art experience is with character-focused pixel illustrations, but I am willing to work on projects outside of my "comfort zone". Feel free to get in touch if you have any projects in need of a pixel artist! <3

Hello! New to itch as I recently released my first game. My name is Karlon Adhihetty, I'm a traditional artist from Toronto and I've been painting on Game Boys for the past 3 years under the handle Neat Game Boy. Recently went on a side quest to break into GB Studio development with an official game for an old show called Kenny vs Spenny. Having a ton of fun with it, very hard work though! I hope to keep going once the game is complete and release some stuff with my own original stories. Will attach some of my hand painted Game Boys !
Hi! My name is ITech (I prefer not to share my real name). Nice to meet you and welcome to itch.io! I hope you're having fun on the platform. Honestly, your Game Boy drawings are insane — really impressive! I've been here since the end of 2025 and released my first game called Garage Tycoon (here’s the link if you want to check it out: https://itech1.itch.io/tycoon-garagem). Just like your project, mine also needed a lot of work to get close to perfect, but it had bugs and I didn’t have time to fix them, so unfortunately I had to discontinue it. However, I’m working on a near relaunch of the same game, just adding some finishing touches, and it should be back online around April. I’m from Portugal.
Hi again! Thanks for the follow back and I'm glad you enjoyed my games. I'll definitely give yours a try too! Check out my Discord server (the link is at the end of the description of Garage Tycoon: https://discord.gg/7kPdvscaQr - I hope you enjoy!
Hello everyone !
I'm Ben, a solo indie dev just trying to make it work in this space!
Check out my first game release if you like and let me know your thoughts , its greatly appreciated.
I originally told my self i would take a week to make this game, just under a month later and its still being made lol, its released now but definitely not in its finished state, and theres lots more i would like to do with it.
Hey all,
Figured I’d finally stop lurking and introduce myself.
I’m Alex, been a mechanic for over 30 years, so I come at game dev from a very “figure it out, break it, fix it better” mindset. Recently started building browser-based and text/incremental style games. Nothing flashy yet, but I care more about solid systems and gameplay loops than polish at this stage.
Right now I’m working on a couple projects:
I’m still early in the dev side, learning as I go, but I’m consistent and actually finishing things instead of just thinking about them.
I like systems that feel meaningful, progression that isn’t fake, and mechanics that actually make the player think a little.
Anyway, glad to be here and looking forward to seeing what everyone else is building.
Hi, I'm TheColombianKidd aka TCK98 aka ReconScope... I been doing game dev for almost about a year now... 3D modeler, C# scripter and looking to learn more as I go. I am NOT a professional, but I'm here to learn and grow, maybe make some new gamedev friends and get creative. Yeah that's all I got- ok bye.
Hi everyone! I'm True Star Games, an indie developer working with Unreal Engine 5.
I realized that I love game development, so I started learning how to make games. I began with small personal projects, and recently I released my first horror game, Still Asleep.
In this game, you’re trapped inside a nightmare and must find a way to escape before dawn.
If you’d like to check it out, it’s free:

Thank you very much!
Hi there.
This is PAL Studio, an italian solo development project that is starting into the indie scene with a new game, GPX: https://pal-studio.itch.io/gpx
Thanks for those who will contribute to let this project grow.
Hi, I'm Charlotte. I'm a 30 something year old AFAB who writes. I've been passionate about it for a long time. My current genre is fiction/fantasy with sci-fi and romance. My works are heavily influenced by games like Xenogears, Xenoblade and many, many books. Think Santiago meets Kaiju Preservation Society
As one of my reviews put it: "
"A refreshing science-fantasy romance novel. Exploring themes of loss, guilt, forgiveness, and trauma (both personal and societal). Refreshingly trope free and subversive, with great world building and a lovable cast of characters"

Hi my name is Danish (not the pastry) but everyone just calls me Dan. I have a bachelors in Space Sciences and I'm currently running a startup related to aerospace. In the free time, I play and make games. Good games make me cry and I have deep respect for game developers (especially if they are indie). I've made games and game engines before but never really finished them or published them and I'm thinking of changing that.
