Baby Steps starts as an elaborate shitpost before slowly revealing itself to be a sincere game about male insecurity. A deconstruction of the kind of idealized picture of manhood that video games helped create wrapped in a terrific slapstick comedy. My review. www.polygon.com/baby-steps-r...

I love this game a lot, it probably has the best tutorial I’ve ever seen.

doubtless you have already heard, but Bennett Foddy, Gabe Cuzzillo, and Maxi Boch's new game is out today and it's really good. store.steampowered.com/app/1281040/...

You're exploring an abandoned observatory with old books, notebooks, and a ritual space. A ghost appears. Will you talk to him? He might have interesting things to say. 🤔 👻 Check out Usual June, the action adventure game we're making, on Steam!

ICYMI, I made a small Wilmot-esque arcade game for the Falling Block Jam! You can play it now for free in a web browser!

started making a #FallingBlockJam game but I've run out of time and energy, so please enjoy this little window into what could have been!

Looking back at my presentation slides (I kept them!), this was maybe good advice for teens? 🤔 Though if teen-Kari saw this, she'd say "OK cool I'm gonna keep drawing Beavis and Butthead instead of my still life drawing assignments, got it, thx~ 😎"

6 years ago we unleashed OVERLAND, the hugest most polished most complex game I've ever worked on store.steampowered.com/app/355680/O... it's beautiful and weird and i'm still so proud of it!! happy birthday overland, you were not easy to make but you turned out preettty pretty special <3

It's been six years since we released Overland, our haunting & beautiful turn-based survival game. Road trip across a post-apocalyptic US, with close calls, dramatic escapes, & hard choices along the way. 🪓 It's now verified on Steam Deck, so you can bring it with you on your own travels!

some drawings from 2022...

- Most excitingly, we can announce what we'll be doing next: A Year of Michael Brough (@smestorp.bsky.social) Premiering November 12 1 game a month for 12 months, starting with 868-HACK plus other non-Brough episodes in between We hope you'll join us!

Due to the amount of people participating in #FallingBlockJam, there's a shortage of blocks, so you're gonna have to make them yourself. #pico8

I want the "clues menu" to feel like your own personal notebook you can skim through whenever Feels more engaging!

Chiitan loves all transgender people. I've received a lot of criticism for expressing my support, but what's more important is that all transgender people live happy lives. Blue Sky cannot display long posts, so please read this post if you'd like. love you all 🤍 ↓ www.instagram.com/reel/C9qppva...

Getting close to done with this little game! #fallingblockjam #pico8

Unfallen Blocks: Recycle blocks from lost Tetris games Tap away the right blocks to make them fall. Chain combos together for extra points! #FallingBlockJam 🕹️ gfx47.itch.io/unfallen-blo...

Made good progress on my #FallingBlockJam entry today. Slowly starting to feel like a game as I add more visual feedback and tune stuff. Still lots left to do, most importantly making dolphin sprites 🐬

currently a weird buggy mess but I think I hit upon an interesting mechanic #FallingBlockJam

dinos munching yummy leaves but way more dramatic #FallingBlockJam

Our next game ABIDE is coming to KickStarter soon. Here is a teaser. Click the link to find out more and follow along: www.kickstarter.com/projects/637...

This gets progressively funnier with every use of the term "floppy".

Chunk rotation system and a little obstacle course for a domino! Next is working out the rotation rules for a more complicated shape #FallingBlockJam

god I love old survival horror

█ ▓ ▒ ░ Music again by @tallbeard.itch.io aka Abstraction, except it gets distorted as you forget. #FallingBlockJam #Godot #GodotEngine

Dinos munching yummy leaves #FallingBlockJam

#fallingblockjam there are now anti-blocks and a constrained build size. I think this is going to be a game about trying to build particular shapes as "memories" with a sort of picross-style reveal at the end of each level

👁️Henry Halfhead👁️ OUT NOW 👃 🍎 Play as 250+ everyday objects 💌 Experience a wholesome life story 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Join a friend in the local co-op mode! Get it on Steam, EGS, PS5 and Switch! Tell your friends, family and help us share this post!

Some progress on the #FallingBlockJam. Not much gameplay yet but I have some falling leaves and dinos. Blocks are inspired by @adamatomic.bsky.social's adamatomic.itch.io/wizards-folly. Seemed more fun to play around than tetronminos

when you start foregrounding Noticing in your design process, things like "cognition maps" (e.g. prioritizing what you want the player to learn / know in what order) become very obviously "what i want people to NOTICE in what order" which immediately becomes a question of feedback priority...

getting some basic functionality in place!

My #FallingBlockJam game has some basic gameplay now! Click and drag to select 2 neighbor jellies to have them (attempt to) swap places. Connect a chain from left <--> right edge to clear.

just remembered a silly thing i made eeeeeeesh like 3 years ago adamatomic.com/chube/ enjoy ??

The start of something for #fallingblockjam! #pico8 #screenshotsaturday

I wrote my own Charlie Kirk obituary, and about valuing truth over manners: www.thenation.com/article/poli...

happy itch.io/jam/falling-... start day to all who celebrate ! i did my entry adamatomic.itch.io/wizards-folly too early but i had a lot of fun doing it, great theme + constraint for finding new designs in a space that is nowhere near as crowded as you think <3

anyone doing falling blocks jam looking for a music and sfx team member? 👀

Here's a film about the making of I AM DEAD, which shows a bunch of Richard Hogg's concept art for that game, and digs into how we drew inspiration from the town of Hastings on the south coast of England, where he lives.
