The Indie Diarist

I love interviewing cosy game devs! In this episode, I spent some time with Neil from Greene Rapture, an indie game studio based in Ireland. Neil is working on Sushi on Wheels, an adorable cosy management game where you play as a cat running his own sushi business. Beyond the super cute concept, this episode is full of great game design nuggets and ideas. Hope you enjoy! 🎒💛

In this episode, I spent some time with Teekond Studio from Estonia to talk about Black Powder Magic, a skill-based 2D roguelite shooter that puts choice in the hand of the player. From Elden Ring to LittleBigPlanet, Karl's sources of inspiration are quite surprising! Enjoy. 🎒💛

Welcome back for the first Indie Diary post Episode 100, my faves! In this episode I spent some time with Kit, the founder of Artificium Games and developer behind Ooops, You're The Hero – which sounds exactly as interesting as it is. From games changing lives to rope swinging pains, this episode is a really cool one! Enjoy! 🎒💛

We've had more than 100 episodes together. Here's to 1,000 more! 🎒💛
What's next for the show? Many great things, I hope, but most importantly... meaning!
See you in the next Indie Diary, my friends. 🎒💛

It's here! 100 episodes, over 100 developer interviews, and 4 years of The Indie Diarist join forces for a major milestone of the show. How do I even begin to describe the amount of knowledge, stories, passion, and achievements I've heard about in 4 years, and how do I condense them into one single episode? Believe it or not, I tried.
In this Indie Diary #100, you finally get to hear from Ant, The Diarist himself, on what almost half a decade of the show means to him (me!), the beauty of game development, and why people keep wanting to create things against all odds.
Enjoy! 🎒💛
