One fun thing about the Japanese is we love the FUCK out of Christmas and have only the loosest concept of what is going on

Gonna be singing this well into the new year.

The tiny Swiss publisher Metaroot landed a major hit with The Farmer Was Replaced, developed by solo developer Timon Herzog. A postmortem about an underserved niche and the importance of communication and information sharing. @metaroot.bsky.social www.gamesmarket.global/metaroot-how...

Agreed 100%. The world needs more love, and just assuming the best until the worst is proven. Even when people complain about people, there are two sides, nobody is truly evil. Even billionaires and politicians are mostly human, just with mental issues needing power/money to feel safe. Hot take 😂

Chiptunes? ✅ Wacked out wardrobe? ✅ Thoughtfully thematic lyrics? ✅ Hello new favourite band. Please come to Australia.

I think it's pretty. Except maybe the carousel horse room

Should I co-stream this?

The big award show is tomorrow and I can't wait! Hope to see you all there!

Thank to @strayfawnstudio.bsky.social for the key! Flotsam recently hit their 1.0 and I tried out their adorable post-apocalytic survival game. Highly recommend. Get it on steam - store.steampowered.c... #BrisbaneGamers #TwitchANZ #VarietyStreamer #SmallStreamer #TwitchPartner

Do you ever get software that every now and then you just go "gosh, this is a game-changer for my flow" and then worry about the fact that nothing else comes close? I really wish capitalism involved more competition and less buying out the competition.

Growing up, I would never have thought that Interactive Digital Media would be as popular, diverse and social as it is now. What a time to be alive!

Australian-made games hit differently. Tingus Goose is on steam - store.steampowered.c... #PaxIndies #PaxAus #Indie #AustraliaMade

Have you taken a moment to check out the official Frosty Mini Steam event? It's stacked with the coolest games made in ANZ 🍦🧡 store.steampowered.com/curator/4542...

JOIN US IN CREATION

Big dumpy, May you know your best, Even if it helps you, Fly you fools. - a poem by my son (read to a fictional pilot, who lived next to us while dozens of planes performed acrobatics above us, in a dream I just woke up from) (also we lived in the country, yes please)

gave me the biggest, warmest heart feels, she is seemingly very wholesome and I always mispronounce things. Secretly I just hope this is how she says it, it's how i say it now.

Growing up in the 70's and 80's the ONE THING we all knew would happen to us is falling into quicksand. We were certain. Of course it never happened. Until now. (not me) apnews.com/video/hiker-...

🚨NEW DOC ALERT🕹️ The Making of Disco Elysium - Part Two: Building Elysium www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrVW... In the second episode of our Disco Elysium series we explore the crumbling studio space the game was created in, and tell the story of the people who quickly made it there home.

@beauschwartz.com @jonjagger.bsky.social @frogpants.club okomotive made the far (lone sails/changing tides) series, they good devs, and they got a pinball strategy coming out. I'm sure they can send some keys for 3 hosts of an epic podcast whom love Ball x Pit. I vouch that it should be wishlisted.

can someone help me send this post to all the Ball x Pit players please we need to reach outside of Okomotive's usual audience with our pinball roguelite 🥹🙏

There are many awards shows, and that is good. This one I like because indie devs are the risk takers, the dreamers, the "well, fine, I guess I'll do it myself" plucky rebels. This one focuses on those that took this risk and struck gold - even if they don't win a trophy, they should be proud.

now... is this podracing?

somehow I feel like the way david harbour says "warhammer.... forty..... kay" makes me think he doesn't actually know warhammer 40k. No disrespect, I appreciate him, but i feel there's a trend of actors in games that feels forced. Just my theory, could be dead wrong.

daughter got her account frozen on youtube music, being too young and australian. simple change of the DOB and now it works fine for my new 16yr old. happy early birthdays lol.

I love u ANZ video games🥰

I get it now, people 10 years my senior think of simpsons references the way i think of futurama.

This is a banger, it was at @paxaus.bsky.social and was amazing.

What a novel way to sign up as a playtester. Kind of a speakeasy vibe - solve the puzzle to join the queue.

When you fuckers gonna figure this shit out.

I played this game. Then I uninstalled this game. I decided I'm gonna create a game studio called "Kym's NO BS" KNOBS for short. KNOBS solitaire was gonna be my first game. I found out @greyalien.bsky.social is working on forbidden solitaire so no need for me to step in anymore. Wishlist on steam.

Indie showcases are to TGA as indie games are to AAA. A few this week are on, including one I'm personally invested in 😎🍦. Watch Frosty Mini on their channel, or if you like a hyped commentary on top, come watch me cover it.

26 games, 30 minutes. Frosty Mini is TOMORROW! ☀️🍦 Catch the showcase live on our YouTube and Twitch channels. Expect surprise reveals, announcements, and updates! 🔴 YouTube: youtu.be/Ji17SMaOtvg 🟣 Twitch: twitch.tv/frostygamesf...

I had enough of big tech and their actions, so created this guide to make switching as easy as possible... Hopefully, it helps you take the first step, or for people who are equally passionate, to get their friends or family involved. Access the site and guide below: www.purchasewithpurpose.io

even cloudflare has a year in review...

Please, how do i enable this for all my services. the less they know the better, pretty sure Tame Impala was talking about data collection in that song.

Are there any press/Youtubers or accessibility folks who want a copy of Rhythm Doctor? We can talk about whatever you want, including: - Roughly 10 year journey from Flash Game to Steam - One-button design for a rhythm game - Screen reader support + audio cues #accessibility #a11y

To take this further, I feel instant gratification and gratuitous enabling leads to hollow victories and antisocial habits. If you can do everything, why bother engaging others, especially others that are different to you. But also the dopamine hit is shorter, there is no ramp up to completion.

I'll be co-streaming the Frosty Mini live at 7AM AEST over at twitch.tv/zigarot. And I'll be personally noting every game for a future stream date 😎😍

The Frosty Mini showcase of games made in Australia and Aotearoa NZ is happening NEXT WEEK! ☀️🍦 Here's some handy timezone info to help you tune in: 🇦🇺 8am AEDT and 5am AWST (10 Dec) 🇳🇿 10am NZDT (10 Dec) 🇯🇵 6am JST (10 Dec) 🇺🇸 1pm PT and 4pm ET (9 Dec) 🇬🇧 9pm GMT (9 Dec)
