We're announcing our new game! Dave's Word Game is a brand new daily word puzzle. We've been building it over the last year and we think it's really fun. We're releasing it for free, on iOS and Android, on December 15th. Give us a follow to see more updates, we'll be sharing more very soon!

The day before we left we stumbled on this shrine festival and you better believe I prayed my catholic little heart out for good business luck. Good news: My schedule is open for narrative design, writing, and production work! Hit me up! 🐎

I'll be doing a Marketing Insight talk at the @ukieofficial.bsky.social Supercharge Session in Edinburgh next week. One last talk for the year before hibernation begins 🐻

My fellow Europeans, I'm once again asking you to write or call your EU representatives and tell them this is unacceptable. They're essentially selling our sensitive data to companies, effectively destroying our privacy and risking our digital well-being. Check the site! fightchatcontrol.eu

I’m gonna be at @dublincomicarts.bsky.social this month! Excited to see everyone, I’ll have copies of Cry Out Loud and some of my other books as well! Will update more on this soon! ✨

PMG once again doing excellent work. I hope everybody keeps up the energy on this absolute bullshit from Rockstar. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9nO...

Hey can yall motherfuckers get unstuck from your feelings about the year 2020 already and start doing the right thing and masking up, at least around people who are vulnerable, disabled, and or already struggling with long covid? Cause I'm sick of people making my friends sick.

I'm glad there's at least SOME official guidance on this at least in some places, because yeah. If you definitely have covid, or you suspect you have covid, you have to become one with your couch. Be the potato you've dreamed of becoming. Let your body *rest*.

Just came across this neat resource for visual design stuff! docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

For gamers who aren't in game dev, you should know that we are in one of the worst periods in game dev history in terms of industry stability and the reason you're not seeing that play out through products is because the average development window of games is 3-7 years so it hasn't reached you yet.

Blast Off! has been added to the Imirt Steam List! 💫 Please follow and share to help Irish game developers ☘️ @imirt.bsky.social Check out the list here and show other Irish games some love: store.steampowered.com/curator/4145... #irishgamedev #gamedev #indiedev #nigamedev #blastoffgame #game

Yup I'm fine, just my usual body bs, no covid thank god!

“what radicalized you” idk paying attention

Oh fun! Time to play the game of 'is my chronic illness chronically illnessing, or is it the start of covid.'

OVERWHELMINGLY POSITIVE* WHAT 😱 Mind Diver is our first game. We're a tiny team. I'm crazy proud of our work: an intimate game we dearly wanted to exist. But we've had almost no press and few streams, so THANK YOU for the words-of-mouth 😭 *in Recent Reviews, but still, wtf🫣 #gamedev #steam #games

I'm loving seeing this pop off on my timeline, go'wan ye's!! Can't wait to play, it looks just my jam.

2025 has been a massive year for Irish games and this is one of the biggest. Great team, great cast and great effort to instill pieces of Irish culture and lore into an immersive and intriguing game. Gwan grab it.

Once again delighted that the Irish people went with the option that was cool af

Considering starting a dev log for the game I'm currently working on, and swinging between 'it might be good marketing? Maybe someone might find it interesting' And 'I do not have the time and no one will read/watch it anyways'. Thoughts on dev logs?

If you’re a #gamedev and have a game on both Steam and GOG, has having it on GOG been much more overhead or nah?

Hi everyone, I'm urgently looking for any work. I'm a writer and narrative designer, I offer game consultations and mock reviews, I localise between German and English, I can write copy. If it needs words, I'll do it! Here's some games I've written on in the past:

Absolutely bloody delighted to say I've teamed up with @modusinteractive.bsky.social and @menacingmecha.bsky.social to bring you the Retro Rollers Bundle. Do you like your balls with a 90s aesthetic? Then check out the bundle here! ↓↓↓↓↓ store.steampowered.com/bundle/60261...

Alright, here's what I managed to play during steamnext fest this time: Cini Cross - nonograms dungeon crawler - fucking brilliant!!! The design is so satisfyingly crunchy, and the nonograms are, well, nonograms, but I'm 100% getting this when it comes out. store.steampowered.com/app/3933120/...

And ANOTHER thing - Azelastine, a very common allergy nasal spray ingredient, is showing positive results in prevention of cold, flu and covid. I spray this anytime I go outside now, as well as using my neck fan to keep air moving, and my trusty mask. Recommend! www.uni-saarland.de/en/news/nasa...

With covid doing the rounds right now, its a good time to remind everyone that doctors recommend you avoid strenuous activity for at least 6 weeks post infection - EVEN IF YOU FEEL TOTALLY NORMAL. Covid is much more than a respiratory infection; it is busy ripping through all your internal organs.

NO NO NO NO NO - dashare.zone ADMIN

Such a mind fuck how Covid conscious folks are accused of not "moving on" when really we're the only ones who've evolved our behavior to fit the science, while others cling to some 2019 glittery dream world indefinitely

What's this... ANOTHER #irishlanguage translation!? Stoked to announce that my team worked on the official localisation of the horror game Crowded.Followed available on Steam! store.steampowered.com/app/2948790/...
