Thank you all for the submissions to #TYIVGB25 so far! We've got one week left; keep em coming!! www.critical-distance.com/2025/12/01/c...

hi yes would you like to hear me ramble about why Wanderstop is such a relevant game when it comes navigating burnout and creative self-worth in this capitalism hellscape? appreciate the chance to talk indie games! I enjoyed it and would love to do more podcast-y things if anyone wants to have me 👀

Getting sick makes my English worse by about 30%

In changing my main in #FFXIV, I've also changed up my small personal house to become a RP location that previously was confined to an apartment. Even so, not enough furniture slots! XD #Gaming #VideoGames aywren.com/2025/12/02/f...

My November gaming log is now up. Games I picked up this month, wishlists, news and more:

In December I’m asking readers about their preferred season in games. You can vote in the poll page below! I’m also sharing last month’s poll results, where pixel art was the most popular art style among readers.

Playing Undertale for the first time ✨

I love that as a Brazilian I have inspired my Dutch boyfriend to say “ai, ai” at least once a day

When am I motivated by a checklist item to cross out, rather than a need for discovery fueled by a childlike curiosity? New post just in:

Just a reminder that you don't *need* to buy more games this Black Friday. Well, unless you really want to ;)

The developer behind Fading Serenades @partnano.bsky.social kindly spared some time to share his experiences of developing the game for our latest interview. somanygames.co.uk/articles/ber...

I learned today that 3 small businesses in my area closed permanently, and I was devastated. 😩 One of them was our favorite brunch spot as well. Not to mention that we used to have 2 stores that sold physical video games in my city but they both closed in the last couple of years…

Rolled credits on Kitchen Sync: Aloha today! This adorable RPG and kitchen management game sees you move to the Hawaiian island of Maikai to reopen your late aunt’s restaurant. I loved each character’s backstories, their personal relationship to food, and the bond system inspired by Fire Emblem.

I have a Steam curator page where I made lists for hidden indie gems, games that kept me awake at night, upcoming indie games I'm looking forward to and more. Follow if you feel you might be interested in my recommendations:

Wow, my Winter Burrow review, narrated and edited by Sey @goodgamelobby.bsky.social reached 500 views! 🐭❄ Check it out if you haven't already read it on our pages.

Does anyone else also get weirdly protective when you hear someone talk about a game you love, but that they haven't played it themselves so they don't know that much about it?

I had no idea there was the @cozyquest.bsky.social showcase! It's happening right now and it's a four day showcase, with an awards show at the end. The opening showcase had a trailer for a beautiful game called The Regreening by @cozy-impact.bsky.social www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I just published my review on Little Corners @littlecornersgame.bsky.social . I had been looking forward to playing the full release and I loved how new mechanics were added, compared to the demo I had tried out before! Thank you to @thesecretsauce.uk for sending me a key to review the game.

As promised, here's my post following the Pokémon Pokopia extended trailer upload last week! #Pokémon #PokemonPokopia

I finished playing Fading Serenades this weekend, developed and published by @partnano.bsky.social. It is a short bite-sized game with a lot of nostalgia for retro games. Delivering packages and organizing your inventory has never been this satisfying.👌 Available for PC and MacOS. Def recommend it!

I love moss boi so much

I wrote a little something about my experience as a guest writer this week:
