🤔Did you know - we also have a Patreon where you can get early behind-the-scenes updates on SHE's development, as well as access to test builds? Check it out! -> www.patreon.com/rocketadrift...

1/3 of the game industry has lost their job in the last two years. Ubisoft closed two more studios today. Everyone is out of work. To that end I'm starting a new bundle to benefit a layoffs hardship fund. Game devs: please consider submitting your PAID games to the bundle, which will launch in July.

Please show Rocket Adrift some love and check out the steam page for SHE now that it's up. They missed out on a lot of exposure when the page wasn't live and it's one of the coolest games we featured in the Story-Rich Showcase. The trailer alone is a masterclass of what you can do in 30 seconds...

We recently added 4 new survival horror games to our upcoming section! Resident Evil Veronica @capcomusa.com Alien: Isolation 2 @creative-assembly.com SHE (Seraphim Helix Experiment) @rocketadrift.bsky.social Horror Scenarios: The Redwood Estate Link in the comments 👇 #survivalhorror

Microsoft fired 9000 of its game developers in a single year, is largely responsible for the AI-pocalypse of right now and, oh yeah, still directly profits from ongoing genocides and wars of aggression. Happy Xbox Showcase Day!

I feel like if you're a gamedev/animator/creative of any kind and you utter the phrase "Gen AI is fine as long as its just for conceptual phase" you should probably just go find some other career

Today marks six years since George Floyd was murdered by a police officer in Minneapolis. George was a beloved father, grandfather, brother, and friend. His life mattered and he should still be here.

If you see this, post your black and white art! 🖤🤍

Our unannounced horror game will finally be revealed during #SummerGamesFest. Stay tuned for more updates.

Behind every story-rich game is a team that cares deeply about what they’re making. The Story-Rich Showcase puts those developers front and center, because the people behind the stories matter too ❤️ 📋 storyrich.games

The NAACP, taking a page from @joelanderson.bsky.social, is calling for Black athletes (and fans) to transfer from and withhold support for programs in states actively trying to remove Black political representation: naacp.org/articles/naa...

Summer Game Fest is about to get a lot more gay. 🌈 Gayming Magazine and the Gayming Foundation are thrilled to announce the Gayming Pride Parade, the first-ever LGBTQ+ games stream at Summer Game Fest. 🎮 June 6th, 12pm PT / 3pm ET More info: gaymingfoundation.org/prideatsgf/

There's a major civil rights protest taking place in Selma, Alabama, right now in response to the SCOTUS decision that weakened the Voting Rights Act and the ongoing attack on Black Americans’ political power (video: defiancedispatch/IG)

The Charleston Reparations Task Force, local Black Lives Matter chapter and the Gullah Geechee community, issued a 40-day ultimatum to the owners of three former plantations to immediately transfer 7,000 acres to their community. capitalbnews.org/gullah-geech...

STAND UP FOR TRANS FOLKS IN RED STATES!! These are not big bloated nonprofits with rich executives, these are orgs doing on the ground work to support trans people in a place where very little support exists. Let's help Rue hit that 60k mark!!

Canada’s silence at the UN exposes a buried history of slavery at home. Abstaining on a recent United Nations reparations vote cannot erase Canada's role in two centuries of slavery — or the structural disparities that still persist today. ricochet.media/justice/cana...

What do you all think of the logo refresh? #pixelart #logo #animation

Ask me if I care what Bank of America has to say about the game industry. They don’t care about developers. They don’t care about players. If a major banking institution says something is good for us, chances are it really REALLY isn’t.

Never let anyone talk you out of a quick 2 day game jam. Those 4 months will be the best 3 years spent releasing a commercial game of your life

I need some feedback on my prototype! It's super early, but I wanted to know if the basic loop of the game has potential. If you have time I would appreciate any feedback given. Thank You! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #itch #godot

I guess it still needs to be said... Visual Novel ≠ Dating Sim

Thanks so much for all your words of kindness! Please, if you played and liked Psychroma, leave a positive review on Steam!

It's indeed possible to beat bad things backed by big money
