BREAKING: PlayStation is shutting down Bluepoint Games, the studio responsible for modern remakes of classic games such as Demon's Souls and Shadow of the Colossus, Bloomberg News has learned. A shocking end for a well-respected studio.

🌼My new game is here!🥀 "She danced in the wind like a holographic dream before the world died." alienmelon.itch.io/flower A game poem and interactive fiction about The End. You play the very last flower left on Earth, bringing peace to long dead soil. #IndieGame #VideoGame #GamePoem #Game

Check out a one-dimensional Pacman, that feels surprisingly deep. It’s a little time thief—play wisely! 🕹️ https://beep8.org #SoloDev #GameDev #PixelArt #IndieGames #indiegame

What if a game was about beginning, not winning? I made a tiny, wordless interactive poem called Firsts about the feeling of starting something new. It is in the first issue of Game Poems Magazine. Five quiet minutes: namidasai.itch.io/firsts

Finally got around to making a proper rules + playthrough video for Hive & Seek. Bluffing, deduction, hidden info, mild chaos. 🐝🐻 www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMOc...

Tropic of Dinosaur IS OUT!!! It's a being walked simulator about aging made of clay, tangerine peel, sigarette ends and children's obscene drawings Go check it out in the first issue of Game Poems magazine along with other beautiful games👇 Thank you for playing and sharing!

Simple, brilliant, addictive. It’s so good. ❤️

...just 3 days left to submit for this year's #AMazeAwards Did you know❓ Everyone receives  🎟️ 3 discount codes for the festival tickets +  🖥️ early access to the Open Screens (timed slots in the exhibition). Don't miss out on #AMaze2026 👉 https://f.mtr.cool/bstijybzdm #altctl #altgames #indiegames

Every now and then an itch comment turns up on an old folk game, and it quietly makes my day. ❤️

I haven’t been this excited for a game release in years. So pumped! 🤩 ❤️

Almost done 🤞 #gamepoem #pixelart

I can't keep getting away with this... (Frontier Scum in 1 rule for @shutupshow.bsky.social) youtu.be/xDmb_JS3ZL0?...

🎙️ I Talked About Playful Learning! Just did my first-ever podcast with @athanateus.bsky.social on @gamedevlocal.bsky.social 🎮 We dug into what makes learning playful, why gamification falls short, and how game mechanics can teach. 🎥 Watch: youtu.be/SLZrkSqjfBk?... #GameDev #PlayfulLearning

Haven’t playtested Hive & Seek in a while - itching to bring it back to the next Playtest UK meetup! I always come away with new ideas… feels like it’s getting real close to done 🤞 #Playtest #BoardGames #GameDesign

We’ll be there with @oubliettegame.bsky.social, come say hi! #IndieGames

🚨 I’ll be at Develop next week, pitching Oubliette - a first-person roguelike set in freefall beneath 1950s Paris. Any tips for a first-timer? 😱 We're also showcasing at Brilliant Indie Treasures from 4-8pm, if you want to have a go! 🎮 #DevelopBrighton #IndieGames #OublietteGame

At Gamebridge today showing Oubliette! Loving the energy here - so many good student and grad games on display. If you’re around, come say hi and try our occult roguelike descent through 1950s Paris 👀🎮 #Gamebridge2025 #IndieDev

Just played Peak and I’m obsessed. A chill climbing game with a shared world regenerated weekly, streamlined survival mechanics, and clean coop interactions. It feels simple, but there’s real depth underneath. Surprises, discovery, vibes. Peak is peak multiplayer design. #IndieGames #PeakGame

🎮 Been thinking about how prototyping isn’t just for early dev - it’s a mindset. My 1st smuggling-FTL prototype was a mess. 2nd version? Cleaner, more fun, and faster to make. Prototypes or features, it's the same. Focus on making it playable first - then improve it. #GameDev #IndieDev

Throwback to Droplet - my first real game release. Just a silly endless faller on mobile… but I learned so much! Biggest takeaway? Analytics are gold. I saw where players quit, what they bought, where they got stuck. Honestly changed how I think about game design. #GameDev #IndieDev

🎮 Showing Oubliette at Interactive Futures today with @lucfoster.bsky.social! Wild to be back in Leamington Spa - studied just up the road at Warwick uni and lived here for years. Big nostalgia vibes. Come say hi if you’re around! #InteractiveFutures #IndieGames #GameDev #OublietteGame

Been playing so much #DuneAwakening lately I caught myself IRL scanning for shade like it’s survival priority #1

It’s like interactive slam poetry without voice but full of heart Check it out! ❤️ #IndieGame #ArtGame

GARBAGE COUNTRY 🌵 Just properly announced our game at PC Gaming showcase! Go check out our fancy new Steam page and drop us wishlist. store.steampowered.com/app/2530870/...

I'm already 10h into @duneawakening.com and I’m already hooked. I don’t play many MMOs, but the mix of survival, base-building, and reckless sandworm baiting is great. Curious to see how deep the Landsraad politics will go in the end game. Anyone else trying it? #DuneAwakening #MMO

Officially announcing my new game: GARBAGE COUNTRY. A lonely road trip through the ruins of a forgotten world. feat. vast wastelands, tower-defense battles, upgrades, mysteries, & lots of driving.

Herdling will be here so soon, and we can’t wait for everyone to go on this journey with us 🤎🧡💛

📋🍕 Ran the Kanban Pizza Game workshop for our first-year MA Game Dev students at @nftsfilmtv.bsky.social! Like an IRL Overcooked, it's a great intro to Agile: fast iteration cycles, feedback loops, WIP limits... and it's always so much fun! #GameDev #Agile #Kanban #IndieDev #LearningThroughPlay

Just set up at the UK Games Expo! 🐻🐝 Hive & Seek is live in the Playtest Zone - 2 players, 1 smart bear, 3 sneaky bees, and a whole lot of bluffing. Come play, or just wave at Seek (the teddy)! #UKGE #hiveandseek #indiegame #tabletop #gamedesign #indiegame

🐻🐝 Bringing Hive & Seek to the UK Games Expo tomorrow! A 5-min duel of bluff, deduction, and memory - one player’s a Bear, sniffing out honey. The other? A swarm of sneaky Bees, racing to the hidden Hive. Catch me in Hall 2-108 from 10–1pm if you want to play! #UKGE #UKGamesExpo #BoardGames

That's right! We made a little game for the Playdate as part of their Season 2 bundle! Check out the video to see me chat about our game, Fulcrum Defender! Also here's a dumb ad I made.

Do you make weird, artsy, short-form videogames? Or know someone who does? Check out this new zine project I've been working on (intended to kind of bridge poetry/academia/art world/indie games) - and consider submitting a game for the first issue! www.gamepoems.org

Throwback to when I made Yin & Yang in 48h, just 3 months after I started learning Unity. Simple idea: two orbs want to be close, but if they see each other directly, you fail. Still one of my favourite and most played games. 🤯 Limitations breed creativity. ✨ #GameJam #IndieDev #Unity3D

Hey! It's been a week since the launch of my poem game split EP, and would like to shed light on my upcoming bilingual interactive slam poem anthology, Concrete Spaces! You can wishlist it here: olisinpa.com/002 Thanks.

ive been struggeling to make stuff and then i played your game and was like: "ah of course we can do whatever we want, i forgot"

What if distance made your love cheesier… and society just couldn’t handle it? Built a tiny prototype about emotional tension and PDA limits – pitching it to #Briefs2025. #IndieDev #GameDesign

i wanted a playdate arcade game i could play on the train with one hand, and i also think there should be more portrait mode games, so i started making one

I can so recommend drifting through the olisinpa split by @comfiedev.bsky.social sometime it reminds me of the old internet in all the best ways, of stumbling upon glades of wildflowers while lost deep in a digital forest 🌿✨

Releasing on my birthday?! Well, that’s a treat! 🥰

Throwback to when we made Fumble for a mental health game jam with @comfiedev.bsky.social. Puzzle mechanics simulate social anxiety - and it hit home for some players. Game design can say something real. Link to game in 🧵 #GameDev #MentalHealthGames #PlayableEmpathy #GameJam #IndieDev #IndieGame

Our new game is releasing soon! 🤩 TRAILS is a cozy puzzle game in which you plot routes for floating sandships and deliver vital cargo to remote outposts - without collisions, dead ends, or backtracking. ⛵ Wishlist now ⛵ store.steampowered.com/app/3605120/... #indiegame #indiedev #puzzle #gameart

The End of Gameplay is out RIGHT NOW! My masterpiece. A pixel art adventure through my mind, broken by kill gameplay 🔪 love, droqen store.steampowered.com/app/3120040/...

people are like "how do you be creative?" it is very simple: 1) you be very curious about other people and envision them as internally rich as yourself and wonder about them 2) "what would it be like if [novel combination of things]" ta-da
