Here's your chance to sponsor AdventureX 2026!

I thought Horsey Game would be the weirdest game I played this year. But then Titanium Court came along! I'm totally in my Weird Game Summer and welcome any more suggestions for freaky little games!

Her Story's Sam Barlow says his next game is "the most complicated thing we've made yet". Project C, as its called, has a mechanic he's "always wanted to see in games". There's more on that in this big chat with him on my YouTube! Video: youtu.be/h9k1ce9LXi4 @halfmermaid.co

I got the lowdown on the new Steam Controller (and a little update on Steam Machine) from Valve engineer and designers Steve Cardinali and designer Lawrence Yang! youtu.be/l647RABAWtE?... #gaming #valve #tech #steam @valvesoftware.com

This was a really exciting interview to get as I know Tonda doesn't speak to lots of press, and I've put 105 hours into Blue Prince 😆 Thanks Tonda and @rawfury.bsky.social for making it happen! youtu.be/rroQ72EDHI0?... @blueprincegame.bsky.social #indie

Thanks to Troy Baker for talking to me about playing Indiana Jones, AI and Naughty Dog's "most complex game ever" aka Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet! youtu.be/O2BhakYYSqI?...

I relate to this too much!

@lbrty-games.bsky.social heya, when I try & proceed / redo the game on Steam Deck, it doesn't continue / let me reset it just stays on the end screen / black screen. Is there something else I should be doing? I just had to redo the whole tutorial again because it won't let me just restart the island

With just 24 hours to go, the money which would have meant LWS 2 cleared its KS goal has been marked as a scam, meaning it may not be funded after all. Has anyone else ever fallen victim to this with their projects on KS?

I love this little kitty.

I shall be getting a 7 hour train journey (!) to Norwich on Friday then back on Monday for @debugexpo.com so if you have any recommendations for films / TV series / indie games / short books to entertain myself with please let me know! Or yknow...what sights in Norwich I should be checking out.

Thanks to Peter Molyneux for speaking to me ahead of the launch of his new (and supposedly final) game, Masters of Albion www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

@jezcorden.com hey Jez pinged you an email around the game pass price changes if you're around today at all!

Repping blue with Blue Prince creator Tonda Ros on the red carpet!

We're waiting for the devs and celebs to arrive! #baftagamesawards

Follow our updates from the red carpet at this year's BAFTA Games Awards www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cg...

It's BAFTA Games Awards time!

Fleabag came out 10 years ago and now I feel very old indeed.

This is up now and ALREADY passed its goal!

The Broken Sword 2 Reforged Kickstarter looks to be launching soon, can get notified here www.kickstarter.com/projects/rev...

Thank you to @kirstyrigden.bsky.social for speaking to me about their game PowerWash Simulator for the BBC :) And @elliegibson.bsky.social about her amazing world record playing it, @skyhookgames.bsky.social about Lawn Mowing Simulator & @nballou.bsky.social! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Enjoy my latest interview with @tom.sokpop.co from Sokpop Collective, the Dutch indie games collective that has put out over 100 indie games, including Grunn! We discuss Sokpop, pricing games cheaply, Grunn and Tom's upcoming remake of his old game Bernband! youtu.be/XMfAZ7HpoqE?... @sokpop.co

V slowly catching up with Silksong. The Widow boss fight feels like this game's Mantis Lords. Just a really fun, tense fight (with an added surprise) where it's all about reaction and learning a pattern to an art. Great stuff! (Yes I'm that weird gamer that likes v hard games & also walking sims 😆)

Went and visited Peter Molyneux at his studio 22cans today in Guildford for BBC Tech Now, to find out more about Masters of Albion, their next game - and apparently Peter's final one. Can the creator of the god game genre summon one last great hit?

@mrsambarlow.bsky.social hey Sam! I dropped you an email about a potential thing in November, I don't know if you got a chance to see it? Send me a DM here if it's easier, but no worries if you're not around!

@timsheinman.bsky.social has been making deduction games for years and nobody told me! I just finished "Rivals", which is part of the Owlskip Set on Steam, where you have to figure out the chronology of events in the lives of two former band members, Luke and Josh, who have gone their own way.

If you're wanting a new detective / investigation game to scratch that Roottrees / Golden Idol / Obra Dinn itch, The Ratline by @timsheinman.bsky.social has just been released! Here's my developer interview with him about the game, a thriller all about Nazi hunting! youtu.be/usqBTaNHk7E?...

I finished Perfect Tides Station to Station. What a beautiful game that is. Had some minor issues with the information mechanic but Meredith Gran has such a talent for evoking the dizzying chaos of being a young adult. And that karaoke scene! Magic. store.steampowered.com/app/2088810/...

Cheers Vic! Very much appreciate it!

I hate to beg, but the truth is any hope of me finishing my next game depends on sales of my previous ones, and Rosewater could use a lot more. Get it for 25% until March 26th.

Huge congrats to @meredithgran.com! I'm playing at the moment and the writing really is excellent.

The @baftagames.bsky.social noms are out! Unsurprising to see Expedition 33 in the top award, fab to see Blue Prince and Dispatch too! Here's the write-up from @tomrichardson.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Thanks Charles Cecil @revolutionsoftware.bsky.social for giving me an update on Broken Sword 2 Reforged! We chat: - What will be new besides graphical updates - Kickstarter & lessons learnt - New BS still possible? Would KS be the way? youtu.be/OMS8zgLhFEA #adventuregames #retro #brokensword

What started as a small, silly creative side project somehow turned into a 1980s-style point-and-click adventure. It’s made by two geeky Swedes who spent way too much time playing point-and-click classics from Sierra and Lucasfilm/Arts. Wishlist on Steam:🥳 store.steampowered.com/app/4394150/...

Station to Station is very close to 100 Steam reviews - can we get it there? if you've played the game on the platform, leaving a review helps a lot with visibility: store.steampowered.com/app/2088810/...

If you're attending the @ukieofficial.bsky.social conference this Thursday in London, come say hello! I'll be there and also talking on a panel about games coverage in the mainstream media!

Thanks to Resident Evil Requiem's director Koshi Nakanishi and producer Masato Kumazawa for speaking to me about the new game in the series and the challenges in keeping it fresh after 30 years! And @vixx.bsky.social for giving her take on the series so far www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

What is everyone playing this weekend? I'm finishing off Resi 4 Remake to get into Requiem. But also just started @meredithgran.com's Perfect Tides Station to Station (with the cats).

Couple of people posting about Amanita Design's Phonopolis atm because the demo is out for Steam Next Fest. I had a chat with Amanita's head Jakub Dvorský a few years back about it - and also twenty years of making beloved games like Machinarium. youtu.be/K7RAcmLn5N4?...

Me fighting Las Plagas in Resi 4 Remake

@limmy.com puss enjoyed your calming voice today for some reason

Thanks to Alexis Garsvayan of @kepler-interactive.bsky.social / @dringo.bsky.social / @duckvalentine.bsky.social for taking the time to chat to me for this article! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

2026 just keeps giving us shocking gaming news!

BREAKING: PlayStation is shutting down Bluepoint Games, the studio responsible for modern remakes of classic games such as Demon's Souls and Shadow of the Colossus, Bloomberg News has learned. A shocking end for a well-respected studio.
