So honored to see The Knightling on this beautifully reflective GOTY list! A great gift, right on time for the holiday season😍 And what a list to be on!

Better late than never. Here are my top 10 games of 2025. It has been a frankly grueling year, but I am grateful more than ever for video games to keep delivering the most emotionally resonant experiences to ever exist. pixelbytegaming.com/andresplays-...

✨I'm excited to finally share my **Monthly Game Highlight Series!**🙌🏾 Every month is a graphic with curated games. Focusing on uniqueness, design, culture, & storytelling. Here's July & August. Games: Kunitsu-Gami, Advent Neon, Sunken Stones, Shinobi: Art of Vengeance, Knightling, Peppered More in 🧵

It’s come to our attention we failed to include one of the games submitted in the trailers shown last night. While we get to the bottom of who needs to be punished for this grievous act please check out the trailer for The Knightling!

One of the most intelligently-designed open worlds I've explored. Worth exploring for yourself!

Speaking of The Knightling... We couldn't afford to spend our entire dev budget on a trailer at THAT award show, but you can see it on Steam! And I'm so chuffed that even though this game is CRIMINALLY overlooked, 100% of our recent reviews were positive! 🛡️ store.steampowered.com/app/1471650/...

omg they rebranded ice cream

We've launched a new podcast tonight called, Beyond the Pixels. An industry-focused interview series with @nickjcal.bsky.social bringing you all kinds of insights and stories from around the games industry. Starting with 2 of the 34 ex-Rockstar employees who were fired in alleged union busting.

15. The Knightling One of my favorite games of the year, The Knightling is a brilliant semi-open world adventure where the titular sidekick takes center stage. With a satisfying parry mechanic, intriguing story, and astute puzzles, there is much to love here. And its orchestral music is majestic.

What a week! The team engaged in ALL THE THINGS at the Dutch Game Week - portfolio reviews, panels, an insanely solid talk by @sashalewis.bsky.social, pitches, networking, showcasing The Knightling... all in our hometown of Breda! The award being the cherry on top😭🍒

We're over the moon - The Knightling won the Dutch Game Award for Best Audio last night, celebrating our second collaboration with our dearest friends at @tumultkollektiv.bsky.social!

The themes and performances in this track, good heavens😭 Great Saturday vibes❤️ open.spotify.com/track/35aSFb...

Our artists are starting to post their Knightling work on ArtStation and first up, befittingly, is a character concept art post by the unfathomably talented @supposedlydaphne.bsky.social. I fall in love with every single piece every time I look at it still www.artstation.com/artwork/L4dozK

The #SteamAwards are coming! Together with our friends at @tumultkollektiv.bsky.social, we have put an incredible amount of effort into creating the music for The Knightling! We would really appreciate your vote for Best Soundtrack! ❤️

🔥CONSTANCE IS OUT NOW!🔥 We hope you all enjoy and love our game as much as we did creating it 💜

I can tell not enough people are playing Hades II, or nobody's playing enough of it, cause if you do, you won't be able to shut up about it. What. A. Videogame.

If you're in Breda, for the next few weeks we're showcasing a selection of games from the Beeld & Geluid Archives. Our selection consists of student games that became full releases: The Blob, SCHiM and Bernband. Special thanks to their original creators for allowing us to showcase these games!

Some new stills of The Odyssey, very curious how Nolan is going to incorporate the Mercedes Benz in a natural way

one of the best soundtracks of the year easily, don't sleep on it

Still thinking about the “official” 2023 Future Class meetup after we had to pay for our own travel to LA/hotel/tickets to the Game Awards, only to stand on a sidewalk outside a Starbucks where they wouldn’t even cover the cost of our shitty coffees 🫠 www.gamedeveloper.com/business/the...

EXCLUSIVE on @gamedeveloper.bsky.social: not only has The Game Awards not nominated a Future Class for 2025, it's told alumni it "does not have any active programming plans" for the award. The Future Class page was taken down sometime this year—eliminating a definitive archive of honorees.

This is so surreal to visit/see! If you're near Breda, go and check it out :)

What an honor: the Explore Breda Store is hosting our little Knightling and team for a temporary exhibition, right in the center of our hometown!😱🤩 Come and see in Breda until December 8th, as part of Dutch Game Week: www.explorebreda.com/nl/locaties/...

We're proud to be nominated for 2 Dutch Game Awards this year with The Knightling! Fingers crossed for some wins on December 3rd🤞💗 #gameawards

Game development isn't always high tech. Sometimes all you need is a sketch, a monitor and an idea... 🔊Sound on!🔊 #gamedev #WIPwednesday #gamedevlife #indiegame

this is insane in a very, very good way

When @aceottorney.bsky.social first told me about this I said "this could change people's lives and stop developers from getting exploited" and having seen the final resource, I think I was not wrong. I'd call it a must-bookmark for indie devs.

Reminder that I'm looking for work after being affected by layoffs at Giant Squid. 3D Environment Artist, or 3D Artist/Props; ideally a full time position. If your studio or somewhere you know has an opening, please let me know. Thank you ❤️ Portfolio: nataliespitzel.myportfolio.com

Ever wonder what lies beyond the great barrier? 🌕 #indiedev #indiegame

It’s official: EA is going private. The leveraged buyout will be financed by a staggering $20 billion of debt, which likely means some *aggressive* cost cutting is ahead for EA in the coming months and years. www.businesswire.com/news/home/20...
