oh yeah, I love first person "extraction" games too

*taps mic* hello gamers... how we doin? I've been quiet lately, deep in the Cartomantic mines, but I wanted to say we're happy to be partnering with HypeTrain Digital! We're going to be a part of their upcoming publisher sale (for playtest signups~) 💖 Check out The Fool by @runesael.bsky.social 👀

things are In Progress

@surasshu.com & i are doing the music for this together ✨

See, look, U.S.A., it's this easy (and should have been done immediately upon the knowledge that these cheats and grifters were STEALING our work)

my need to find a new job has become more pressing.

Every time someone’s like “put that in the louvre,” my head now goes “and then steal it from the louvre, the security password is louvre”

Senate Dems are out here posting noise like "omg the Senate GOP just voted against healthcare subsidies and are trying to sneak a bunch of terrible shit into the funding bill" — and people are flooding their mentions with "bitch, please, GTFOH" Never seen such a dramatic swing in political momentum

Our game was spotted in the Just Revealed section of HypeTrain's event. Finally looking kinda real with the art 😭😭 So uhh, if you wanna wishlist and check us out, you can 👉👈 store.steampowered.com/app/2219850/... Screenshot courtesy of @glitchinggogo.bsky.social (one of my strongest playtesters 💪)

sidenote that if I had played Öoo (store.steampowered.com/app/2721890/...) before I wrote my IGF thread it absolutely would have been on it. genuinely one of the best platformers I've played. 3 hours of all killer no filler and does more with two buttons than most games do with a full controller

at the pop-tarts marketing copy meeting: guy 1: we all know the saying "eating your food one way isn't picky, but it's pretty cocky" right, what if we did something with that? guy 2: okay, sure, quick question, what the fuck are you talking about?

Man, the "Quake 1.5" mod is so cool. It adds a bunch of monsters from the Arcane Dimensions mod and revamps the guns. Most importantly it adds a bunch of new boss fights, including redoing the final boss. Normally you just telefrag the final boss, but now you go inside of it and kill it from within!

I was wondering if there are any Discord servers for Vocaloid producers outside of Japan? I'm currently putting together a compilation where I'll be arranging the 1st album of a J-POP band 'MellMell' using PureMIDI x Vocaloid, if anyone is interested in participating I'd love to invite them there

The original Dem demands were: 1) Permanent ACA subsidies 2) Medicaid funding restored 3) No more blank checks for the regime (rescission) They dropped Medicaid immediately. Went silent on rescission. Cut back to 1 year of subsidies on Friday. And surrendered today. The Senate Democrats!

never occurred to any dem at all including dems from illnois to attempt to condition reopening the government on ending the military occupation of chicago btw don't think we didn't notice that

a thing that i think that may be uncharitable: hating small talk is simply being the "uncomfortable when we are not about me" bird. only when the conversation turns to you or your interests will you deem the talk unsmall

When the Conservative Party in Korea declared martial law, the Korean Democrats knew if they didn’t send them to hell there would be no opposition afterwards. And look at them. They’re taking the ex conservative president and ensuring he never breathes free ever again.

okay, so, with Dems successfully keeping anyone up in 2026 for voting for this turd let's take a look at who's up in 2026 anyway: 1. Cory Booker - apparently involved behind the scenes, constantly looking for bipartisanship. I don't dislike him personally but he doesn't have what we need. Primary.

Help an alien girl make it as a galaxy-famous singer in a music-synced platformer! 🎶 platforms and hazards move to the beat 🌃 colorful city to explore ❤️ a bunch of aliens to befriend (or romance?) ✨ 90s anime aesthetics meet lowpoly Twinkle’s Galactic Tour! #PitchYaGame

i sooo agree... i still dunno why i played yu yu hakusho tokubetsu hen (snes), but this game still lives in my head rent free and i still want to make a game inspired by it. maybe someday!

i really can't get over the Game Awards making press and its own Future Class members pay for expensive tickets, or pocketing all the sponsorship money for said Future Class program, or having meetups at Starbucks where met people for a quick photo op and then forcing people to pick up the tab

like what does Geoff Keighley even do?? it's almost comical how much they just make people pay them lots of money (esp given how much people pay them to advertise on TGA) and then don't give anything in return. very Trump-like, tbh.

Anybody who has watched the Times pull this shit for ages knows this game. Good piece.

Returning to report that Final Fantasy Tactics RIPS. Oh my GOD. What a GAME.

i feel like using an llm to write your personal blog posts is extremely embarrassing. why are you even doing this? no one is making you blog, you are choosing to do it. if you don't care enough to write your own posts then just don't post at all.

the new date is saturday, december 6, 12-4pm! all ticket holders will be getting an email from syzygy tonight with the option to refund if you can’t make the new date!

UPDATE ⚡️ unfortunately we’re POSTPONING this show! we’ve been exposed to RSV, and all the artists on the roster want to stay together & be socially responsible. we’ll post with new info from the venue once we have it, including refunds/changing your ticket date. thanks for understanding! 🫶🏼

The ACLU petition still hasn't reached it's signature goal? WHAT? That needs to change now. 200k signatures is nothing, let's GET IT. AT LEAST! action.aclu.org/petition/mas...

seems bad

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting

Years ago, I had 50 limited-edition 11"x17" art prints made to raise money that we were desperately in need of at the time. I sold 7. I found the other 43 and put them on eBay because I desperately need to pay some more bills. :( $50, ships internationally! www.ebay.com/itm/26746176...

I've seen enough: the gerontocracy is dead. www.kenklippenstein.com/p/the-geront...

it has 2 now because i wrote one, which never happens. please support this game (i think it's by a Korean dev team) it's so good and i need it to make an unlikely comeback from obscurity, it's breaking my heart store.steampowered.com/app/3579010/...

You can shoot, but only out of the (1) face on your die. You can roll to destroy objects, but only when you’ve rolled the number of times shown on top of your die. Walls and enemies slowly spawn in, increasing the incredibly-named “Jailizing” meter, reflecting how close you are to being sealed in.

JAIL DICE: Roll to Break Calling this an "escaped PS1 game” might only appeal to specific people, but, well, I am one of those people. Navigate random spawning obstacles until you collect enough keys to exit the level, then spend currency on upgrades. Simple – but the execution is where it shines.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

TWO WEEKS UNTIL DEMONSCHOOL

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video. I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children. But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

this is a game asset. it's from like, dead rising 2 or something

Yes! When nobody is looking, when it wasn't conventional wisdom, when he was still desperate for every vote, he stood by the most vulnerable kids and had their backs. bsky.app/profile/esti...

It's time!!! Independent Games Festival judging is wrapping up and thus comes my list of IGF Games I Want To Talk About for the year! As usual, I'll threadpost this later (maybe tomorrow) but people willing to click on a link can read it in full right now on my blog! auratriolo.com/blog/2025/11...

ever see a gif so cool you have to buy the game about it? yeah store.steampowered.com/app/3579010/... (h/t @moomanibe.bsky.social for bringing this EXTREMELY overlooked game to my attention in her writeup of her favorite IGF entries, which you can read here auratriolo.com/blog/2025/11...)
