Congratulations @lucasimmanuel.bsky.social on reaching the finish line with the remarkably creative "The Remake of the End of the Greatest RPG of All Time"!

Any game that starts with "8" is brilliant in our book. Doesn't hurt that it's from one of the greatest designers of all time.

Court is now in session! One of the strongest openings of any game we've ever played. Huge congrats to @apthomson.bsky.social! 💙

New trophy added to the Trophy Room! 🏆 We are so excited to have been awarded the Game Design award at the BAFTA Games Awards today! Congratulations to all the winners and nominees from a fantastic year in gaming.

It has been pointed out to us that the same 3 outlets (@polygon.com, @theguardian.com, @eurogamer.bsky.social) that named "Blue Prince" their Game of the Year, are the same three that named "Outer Wilds" their Game of the Year six years ago! Hat-trick! 🎩👒👑 ::)

Blue Prince is our 2025 game of the year. Here's why it's so much more than just a brilliant puzzler: https://www.eurogamer.net/blue-prince-our-game-of-the-year-is-so-much-more-than-just-a-brilliant-puzzler

Thank you @pcgamer.com for awarding Blue Prince Best Design 2025 🏆💙

Seeing @pockettrap.bsky.social 's absurdly good Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo at #3 on Slant's best of the year makes us very happy as it is also in our top 3 of the year. This game deserves its petals. Play its demo to see what love & polish looks like: store.steampowered.com/app/2870350/...

Thank you @forbes.com for listing us in your top 5 games of 2025! 💙 www.forbes.com/sites/erikka...

This is one of our favorite games of the year! God tier atmosphere. It was worth the wait. 💙

Trophies earned will be permanently added to the trophy room.

Hi folks, this is again a plea for help. There still is no cleared donor. People working through the system but again-if you're at all interested in trying to help, it takes months to get cleared as a donor. There's a lot of delays/appointments. So please consider and spread it around, thank you.

Iggy was an invaluable tester and contributed so much to the project. He was absolutely brilliant in the game and came up with so many original strategies we had never considered. Please help us spread the word and as we help find him a living kidney donor. 💙

A sketchy wizard's potion has turned us into the Dog Witch. 🐕🧙‍♀️ Congrats on the launch @heckmouse.bsky.social!

Appreciate Golden Joysticks giving us the 8th slot here. Someone knew the assignment. 💙

Perfection💙

I spoke with Tonda Ros, creator of this year’s indie hit, Blue Prince, about how, as a child, an unexpected bequeathment - not unlike the one that powers his game - provided him a near endless supply of NES games.

Next week’s guest is Tonda Ros, creator of viral hit Blue Prince. In the episode, he reveals the unlikely “golden goose” that funded development and how teaching himself Unity opened the door to one of the most distinctive indie games of recent years. Not subscribed yet? Click here: bit.ly/43RMgx9

Eggplant Presents: A Year of UFO 50 - Seaside Drive We're joined by @dmullinsgames.bsky.social @dogubomb.bsky.social @glovetheglove.bsky.social to discuss the 48th game. “Nothing's more relaxing than a nice long drive by the sea...complete with plenty of gunfire!” eggplant.show/ep-a-year-of...

"At face value, two potential Game of the Year (GOTY) nominees, Dogubomb’s Blue Prince and Kojima Productions’ Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, seem like very different games, but both aim to reinvent our genre expectations." www.forbes.com/sites/gabiki...

Really enjoyed the Games Done Quick speed run of Blue Prince a couple of days ago. On top of that, thrilled to hear them shout out @cyan.com as such an inspiration behind Blue Prince. I always enjoy seeing Cyan getting some well-earned recognition :) (shoutout at 3:13) youtu.be/gtIsOsfHf1E?...

PLAY FOREVER

We interviewed #BluePrince creator Tonda Ros (@dogubomb.bsky.social) on the writing, lore, and inspiration for the groundbreaking puzzle adventure game. First half of the video is spoiler-free! youtu.be/H0nY1MjmGvg

Also appearing in the Cerebral Showcase, the Steam demo for Frycandle's new first-person puzzler, The Button Effect. We're looking forward to checking it out.

Mount Holly joins the ranks 💙 www.theguardian.com/games/2025/m...

Blue Prince had me in a vice-like grip just a couple weeks ago, so this chat with @dogubomb.bsky.social was perfectly timed. Such a joy chatting design with this man. For all of you playing Blue Prince, you know you’re in for a treat with this ep. 🫡

From our first page, to our last, what we have imagined has sprung forth from the dreams and pages of your Art. Dreams are but portals, inscribed, yet now unbound. We touch them, and they are real. And they are real. Chev ah'shem rehlehm. Chev ah'shem bivdil.

📣HUGE Congrats to @dogubomb.bsky.social & @rawfury.bsky.social on the launch of 👑Blue Prince! 🤩 The Akupara Team took the liberty of making a lil fanart of 🐢Chronos himself in an iconic doorway...or 3💙 Who else is running to play this stylish exploration mystery? 👀 @blueprincegame.bsky.social

Thought of the day: We need to get some poster art up on opencritic.

This game... holy shit. If you like Outer Wilds, or Obra Dinn, or any other games that require thought and patience and a notebook handy, trust me when I tell you to mark April 10 on your calendar. I'll have more to say closer to then

This week's #WishlistWednesday is Blue Prince! It's an adventure game about navigating a changing mansion and was dubbed Most Anticipated Game at the Thinky Awards! Play the demo–leaving March 10th–while you still can! thinkygames.com/game...

Step by step, room by room, door by door... We are excited to announce that Blue Prince will also be coming to PS5 & PS+ Game Catalog, Xbox Series S|X Windows & Game Pass, Spring 2025.
