Did we learn nothing from Brexit?

This is great and depressing. steamreviewguesser.com

And I have bought it.

"Due to the late running of the train you are on, we are cancelling it." Good times.

ANOTHER NEW GAME ANNOUNCEMENT? Yeah why not - meet Infinity Sweeper, a Minesweeper roguelite which has seen me get deep into the weeds of the Minesweeper lore and patterns. It's all about the 1s and 2s. There's a huge demo available now - check it out here: store.steampowered.com/app/3161400/...

We've just announced The Gate Must Stand - a fantasy roguelike tower defense launching next year: store.steampowered.com/app/3975750/... Check out an exclusive first look RIGHT NOW on the Yogscast Twitch channel: www.twitch.tv/yogscast

Yeah this looks great.

Very cool indeed.

We’re here and we’ve brought SPELLS! Come and find us in the Leftfield Collection at @egxofficial.bsky.social and try out Rhell: Warped Worlds & Troubled Times! (we’re right by the lego stand so easy to find 😍) #gamedev #indiegame #egx

Looking at Next Fest - back of vape packet maths implies there's, on average, around 23 games a day being released between now and the next one. Good times.

Evidently not

There's something very special about Dicealot - so we're really pleased to see it score so highly. Launches Thursday: store.steampowered.com/app/3035330/...

Can confirm: is good.

And I didn't know a huge amount about this before the reveal but very happy to be welcoming a new game from Dan. Looks fantastic - give it a wishlist.

Really pleased to see this news out there. Task Time is an enormous amount of fun - looks like the announcement is off to a flyer. Congrats to Sam and the team at Wired.

I haven't read this yet but I'm assuming it confirms the fact that those who invert the Y-axis are very cool and everyone else is just weird.

"But you shouldn't worry about Silksong"

Loved the original. Would be v down for this.

Another banger from Yogs Games? You bet - Monster Mop Up is now officially out out out, and with a whopping 35% launch discount. We've gone fucking bonkers. Pick it up now before someone tells us off, and enjoy crazy cleaning action alone or with a crew. store.steampowered.com/app/2451310/...

A good watch.

Spectrum Next campaign - which I've backed, obvs - looks like it's broken Kickstarter www.kickstarter.com/projects/spe...

Honestly, we are too good to you.

Rhelly good news.

Hard agree. If you've not picked up the brilliant Landlord's Super yet there's really no excuse.

95 percent of current Steam reviewers can't be wrong.

I'm sorry not all of the team was around last night. But noting the contribution of those who couldn't make it, here's an exclusive behind the scenes look at a proper grown up publisher launching a game, a Steam festival, some new demos, and announcing a new signing.

Happy birthday D&DG!

Right, The Royal Writ is out now. I think it's truly brilliant - I hope you do too. store.steampowered.com/app/3333700/...

A puzzle game? From Yogs Games? You fucking bet. Just announced and flying into Tiny Teams - please meet 'Rhell: Warped Worlds and Troubled Times' from the phenomenal @slugglove.bsky.social Limitless solutions to brilliant puzzles - demo going live shortly: store.steampowered.com/app/3247030/...

Fuck me there's a lot of me news today. Here's some more - me on The Game Business show. Did they manage to correct "Jimmy White" to "Jimi Hendrix"? I don't know, I've not watched/listened to it yet - but see for yourself: www.thegamebusiness.com/p/digital-fo...

Some belters on Tiny Teams already. Love this minesweeper roguelike. Check out the Infinity Sweeper demo on Steam now.

It's difficult launching a game, let alone one you've actually designed yourself. It's not my place to be proud of Ste, but I'm proud of Ste. Go check it out.

HAPPY TINY TEAMS DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE. Tune into the gang now ahead of the opening ceremony at 5pm and the actual opening at 6pm: www.twitch.tv/yogscast Hyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyped.

Anyway t-minus 9hrs30mins. Down at the mothership to pace up and down for 9hrs30mins.

If you want to know what pre-launch nerves can do: on a podcast yesterday I was recalling an anecdote about being accused of desecrating Jimi Hendrix's grave but referred to him as Jimmy White. Different vibe entirely.

Game launching tomorrow and the week's euphoric giddiness has been replaced by feeling properly, sickly nervous.

Hear ye, hear ye! The Royal Writ is out in just 3 days! Crow King Mikolt II is ready to summon his best creatures into battle, all he needs now is YOU! #gaming #indiegame #game

Big big big big week.

Last call for any industry mutuals who want a key for The Royal Writ ahead of launch on Thursday. store.steampowered.com/app/3333700/...

Still hard at it. Can't wait for you all to see the full version on Thursday. The demo is currently 93% positive if you fancy whetting your appetite: store.steampowered.com/app/3710820/...

Bloody stupid game. Restarting immediately.

God I genuinely love working overtime on the weekends.

So. Many. Bangers.

They really do need to give out some more dev kits.

Been doing overtime for the best job in the world. store.steampowered.com/app/3333700/...

My job is playing The Royal Writ. I have the best job in the world.

@matpiscatella.bsky.social Hey Mat, I wanna send you a Steam code The Royal Writ, our next release for no other reason than it's brilliant. If you're interested could you follow me or ping your email address over to byron[at]yogscast.com

As I a sign of how much I love Ste, I'm able to say this of his new game: I am jealous of how good it is. Genuinely jealous. I wish I was this clever. Keep an eye out for it.

Absolute bloody nightmare at the Glasgow Science Centre. Apologies all!

The ol' Byronicman has come out of column retirement for this, but don't let that put you off.
