Now that I can finally call Rosewater an award-winning game (along with multiple nominations) perhaps it’s a good excuse to check it out if you’ve been putting it off, or never heard of it? store.steampowered.com/app/1226670/...

I agree with you that the Toonstruck / Curse of Monkey Island production values were an unsustainable blip. But from @wadjeteyegames.bsky.social to @stuckinattic.bsky.social, indies have found cheaper ways to make a career selling 2D adventures over the last 15 years.

You can tell me Bluesky is dead, irrelevant and actively hostile, but you have NO IDEA how many point & click adventure games I've played.

So hyped for Hell Is Other People!

putting my high school into my horror game. it did not traumatize me at all. nope. also f**k AI art. doing this the real way ✍️ #gamedev #horrorgame #digitalpainting #procreate #processvideo #indiegame

This is where we're having our morning cup of coffee today (I wish)

🧵1/3 The Mitzkin Files, case 6: it's the Foxkin! Equal parts fox and flyer, the Foxkin loves hanging out in thick wooded areas and exhibits a constant craving for peanut butter.

wouldn't it be funny if EVERYONE blocked this Attie AI account @ bsky.app/profile/atti... before they could do anything with it

It's #WishlistWednesday, so here's Hocus Focus - a focus tool game to help you organize your work & life ✨ Wishlist & play the demo: s.team/a/4202710

Needs a "Plunder" verb in there, no complaints otherwise!

Extremely excited to announce my new point & click adventure: THE CALL OF BOOTY! A rollicking pirate comedy, where Monkey Island meets Broken Sword! Join a scurvy crew of pirates as they embark on a search for the lost treasure of Captain A.P. LaFeuel! More details to follow...

Did you pet your shadow fox today? #cozygame #productivity #studywithme #indiegame

Well I'll be! ROSEWATER is one year old today! My original plan was to release an update with developer commentary, but I've been way too busy working on my new game. So instead, I'm going to do an all day AMA! Ask anything about the game, the development process, or whatever else!

One thing I love about being a micro indie is that my work days are really varied. Any day could consist of:- - Game design - Story - Character art - Environment art - Tech art - UI - User testing - Animation - Bizdev - Sound design I'm sure I'm probably missing a few 🙃

🧵1/3 The Mitzkin files, case 5: It's the Flamekin! Always burning to be useful, you might find this fiery little fluff in fireplaces throughout Rakus. Has an inexplicable appetite for vanilla ice cream.

Inspector Waffles received two new gifts this morning😊 cc @redartgames.bsky.social

There is something magical about seeing the physical version of our indie game for the first time. Thanks for the photo @redartgames.bsky.social 🎉🎉🎉

🧵1/3 The Mitzkin files, case 4: it's the Elderkin! Despite looking old even at a young age, Elderkin have sharp minds and an insatiable thirst for knowledge. You'll often find them in libraries, buried goatee-deep into dusty tomes. They love a hot cup of chocolate.

This is the church of Geamana, here in Romania. It's a bittersweet image - hauntingly beautiful, but for a terrible reason. Back in 1977 400 households were evacuated so the village could become a dumping lake full of toxic chemicals. I hope we do better in the future.

💫 A magic portal awaits to take you to the hidden town of Rakus 🎶 A selection of ambient sounds will help keep you focused and create a consistent, calming audio environment that helps the brain relax 🪄 Try the Hocus Focus demo - a cozy gamified focus tool. #cozygaming #productivity #indiegame

The Mitzkin files, case 3: it's the Bonekin! His skeletal markings clue you in about his favorite dwelling places - wherever occult rituals and fortune telling takes place. Has an inexplicable passion for chocolate pudding.

The Mitzkin files, case 2: it's the Batkin! Always cheery, always excited to be your desktop study mate. Loves rainy nights and rooftops. Blueberries are her thing.

The Mitzkin files, case 1: classic Mitzkin. The least elusive of the bunch. Hangs out on tree branches. Loves light. Can't get enough of raspberries.

We funded our first game, Gibbous, on Kickstarter 10 years ago. Was looking for something else and found these pictures. We've been doing the thing we love for a living for a decade now, and it's thanks to people like you who support and encourage us. Thanks, guys!

🧵We don't often post about generative AI because honestly the whole thing is so disheartening, but here's how we feel about it:

cozy animating session. I think she needs more layers. pun intended 💀 #animation #artist #gamedev #horrorgame #indiegame

Can't be objective but one of my favorite things in Hocus Focus is color-theming my room and my pets. The Flamekin is there for contrast, btw. And warmth 🔥 #indiegamedev #cozygame

When your character has been through a lot 💀 Animating some special walking and idle animations #gamedev #horrorgame #indiegame #animation
