Can confirm that anyone who dings the Mario Wonder DLC is wrong.

You can’t tell me video games don’t teach you anything when one of my 5 year old twins just asked me for a “partition wall”

Seeing red, for real. Nintendo called my bluff, so I had to put my money where my romantic ideals were and reckon with the reality of the Virtual Boy. This is a sequel to episode 014. But this time, I’m not alone.

Whenever this game comes out, it slaps. Celebrate Friday by wishlisting this delightful thing.

One year of my favourite game of 2025. Go all in on both it and the soundtrack on episode 032 of Dialogue Tree, guest starring the wonderful @alphachromeyayo.com www.dialoguetree.cc/episodes/032...

In Japan, Rhythm Heaven Groove is called Rhythm Heaven Miracle Stars

Posting this for future generations to laugh/marvel at. There is no OoT remake, and the thing that commenters are pitching (BotW open world and climbing mechanics plus linear dungeons) is an ENTIRELY DIFFERENT GAME. There’ll be a Prime style remaster, but that’s it.

This dude makes good pod. He could make yours better.

Yesterday was the one year anniversary of episode 000 of Dialogue Tree. I didn’t notice because I was being forced to do cartwheels in a park. www.dialoguetree.cc/episodes/000...

Relaxing Bank Holiday. (gymnastics, picnic, park, then chaperoning two senior citizens to The Football please just bury me here)

Decent Bank Holiday news

Tried to undo the intellectual damage done by the Mario Galaxy movie by taking the kids to a museum, a harbour and headbanging to underscores on the way home.

Hey adults! Admitting the Mario movie is bad doesn’t: - make you “one of them” - make you a humourless killjoy - invalidate your happy memories of the games Don’t twist yourself into knots. Be free.

Kick back, relax, and enjoy these chill as heck Nintendo tracks 🌟 featuring a very laidback block by the legendary @barsilencevgm.bsky.social PS: no April Fool's here #Nintendo #VGM #VideoGameMusic #Gaming Listen & Share ✨ chillscape.xyz/episodes/nin...

HEY YOU 🫵 BRISTOL INDIE GAME DEV! 🎮 There's just over a week until submissions close for the IMPACT! Indie Games Expo! Check out the post below for details! 👇🎉

The retired crime journalist and the most influential photography game that you’ve never heard of. Introducing Tom Halfhill, and his game, Nessie.

There’s Virtual Game Cards and Game Share and Game Chat but do Nintendo have a plan for how I’m supposed to share Tomodachi Life between 3 kids who are obsessed with the demo?

Life is hard and the world is a terrible place so let's all take a moment to be grateful for the fact that Robyn released an album of Robyn songs

Dropping into your feed to show off the type of hot modern games I beat

3 years of dev on a hard to pitch game in a volatile industry with no guarantee of success. Respect. This is a cool game that you might like and you should definitely at least try the demo.

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOO

The catfish takes flight. @zipit-games.bsky.social's wonderful debut, The Wide Open Sky is Running out of Catfish releases on Steam today. Here, they talk about where the idea for the game came from, and something specific they wanted to avoid.

IGN gets dinged by Nintendo commentators all the time, but their updated Mario Wonder review is the only one that actually explains what it is, why it's good, and doesn't fall over itself searching for a negative hot take: www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_ot...

Belated, lukewarm takes on the Tomodachi Life demo: - The inability to share, and the lack of true multiplayer experience, is a modern tragedy. - It's still incredible.

Fell in a river and lost my phone today. How are you?

That distant explosion you just heard was my daughters coming home to find the Tomodachi Life demo downloaded on their Switches

The voice customiser in Tomodachi Life makes me laugh in a way I can’t quite explain

THIS IS NOT A DRILL

A trailer for episode 038 of Dialogue Tree, featuring @zipit-games.bsky.social on The Wide Open Sky is Running out of Catfish, the latest game in the photography genre, and Tom Halfhill, the retired journalist who accidentally made the first. Listen here: www.dialoguetree.cc/episodes/038...

Hi I'm the tiny podcast that has so far today sent pitch emails to a playwright, a fused glass artist and a pop star

It's the 10 year anniversary of the best 20 minute game you'll play 20 times. Congrats @kinmoku.bsky.social!

🚨INDIE DEVS🚨

Boreal Tenebrae re-entering the chat to show everyone how strange vibes are done

5 y/o rolled credits on Henry Halfhead. So glad I got to experience the emotions of the finale of that game again, but this time, with the added indignity of having someone witness my ugly cry face.

A lovely compliment, and something I kind of want all guests to take away from the show. Can confirm the feeling was mutual. Now you heard the dev, go listen. (And wishlist Catfish while you do: store.steampowered.com/app/3172760/... )

if you want a key to our game and you’re press or a streamer, please DM us!!! #indiegames #videogames #gamedev #indiedev #twitch #twitchTV #VTuber www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFxG...

A few notes before the weekend steals us all away: - Ben and Joshua were wonderful interviewees, funny, open and endlessly charming, and the game they’ve made positively reflects their personalities. - The audio timeline of the episode would give pro audio engineers decades of nightmares.

Was such a pleasure to be on Dialogue Tree! Andrew's recount of playing Catfish - I don't think I'll recover from such thoughtful engagement 😭💗

Capturing the impossible. In episode 038 of Dialogue Tree, I'm joined by @zipit-games.bsky.social to talk all about their funny, touching and dreamy game, The Wide Open Sky is Running out of Catfish. I'm also joined by another special guest to tell us how we got here. Listen to find out who. ⬇️

Congrats to @aspecificegg.bsky.social and @katerblossom.bsky.social on hitting this milestone. Quintessential indie game pod from great community builders.

2 of the stars of episode 038, out tomorrow

Add @folly.studio's GUBBINS to this list: folly.studio/gubbins

Interviewed 2 people for the show yesterday and they were so lovely that they blew winter straight out of England and made spring arrive
