The Ratline exhibited at #AdvX25 last year, check it out! store.steampowered.com/app/3756940/...

Black Friday Darren's at it again! Just kidding, Dave, we love you and Wadjet Eye Games. 😉 (For full context, watch the #AdvX25 Dark Room show recording on our YT channel: youtu.be/P-s6acgDGz0)

Looking forward to play the full version of Ashwood Conspiracy. The demo at @adventurex.bsky.social was really convincing, with challenging puzzles!

Pirates! Narrative design prototyping! Contemporary politics (a bit)! Geeky references to books, games, series and films! And a swashbuckle with AI at the very end (spoiler: the narrative designer wins). Love every bit of @jon.inkle.co's talk for @adventurex.bsky.social 2025 youtu.be/Vajgyh246t8?...

I loved playing A Week in the Life of @asocialgiraffe.bsky.social at @adventurex.bsky.social - and previewed this silly game for @indiegamesplus.com: indiegamesplus.com/asocial-gira...

I got the chance to preview Trans Theft Horso by @cowchildren.bsky.social at @adventurex.bsky.social - which I wrote up for @indiegamesplus.com! It's an adventure game about chasing hormones in the wild west. indiegamesplus.com/trans-theft-...

I wrote about Dark Tides by @darktidesgame.bsky.social at @adventurex.bsky.social - which is a narrative driven game about reading minds and solving mysteries: indiegamesplus.com/dark-tides-p...

We talk about spoken vs written comedy, being funny "for a girl", comic devices we love, what makes a game funny, and being funny in a team. It also features @darmato.bsky.social spontaneously reading in a Monkey Island scene with Alasdair, which was rather magical!

You can now watch the @adventurex.bsky.social panel "Finding the Funny" on YouTube! I was so pleased to be on this panel alongside @misterabk.bsky.social @davetheallthing.bsky.social @supernorn.bsky.social and chaired by @tallstorygames.bsky.social youtu.be/aCUwW7JWCJg?...

I did a keynote thing! Back in November, the folks at @adventurex.bsky.social kindly invited me to speak to a rowdy and welcoming crowd of game devs, which I did, and now there's video proof! The topic: IMPOSTOR SYNDROME Thanks again. It was a blast. Can't wait to see y'all again in November :-)

Chance's Lucky Escape by @juliaminamata.bsky.social @palkidmusic.bsky.social is a very humorous point and click adventure game, that I got to play at @adventurex.bsky.social for @indiegamesplus.bsky.social: indiegamesplus.com/chances-luck...

My first @adventurex.bsky.social was an incredible experience and this talk was a real standout. Useful for every indie creator of every discipline.

'How To Position Your Game Like A Pro' The talk I gave at last year's fantastic @adventurex.bsky.social is now live on YouTube! Watch it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vW-r... I give a brief introduction to what positioning is and a step-by-step walkthrough of how to conduct it for your game...

I got to preview We Stay Behind, a narrative driven game about a journalist, going to a deserted town to see why people want to live their until it's destroyed, at @adventurex.bsky.social for @indiegamesplus.bsky.social: indiegamesplus.com/we-stay-behi...

At @adventurex.bsky.social I got the chance to play Ghost Haunting, which is a point and click adventure game where you play a naughty child, who finds out about the realm of the dead, for @indiegamesplus.bsky.social: indiegamesplus.com/ghost-haunti...

TR-49 is our best launch, ever, in 14 years. I admit I'm surprised! Made in 9 months, mostly as an experiment to learn Godot, and an excuse to play with some actors. (And for me to do some acting.) One thing I think IS cool: it's a "one-sitting" game. 4 hours; $7. No commitment required.

At @adventurex.bsky.social I gave a talk on creating stories from scratch: from idea to full outline, in 25 minutes, with jokes. Enjoy!

How can you sound sophisticated on a budget? Kathryn Vinclaire's Adventure X 2025 talk on casting actors for indie games is now available on our YouTube channel. #adventurex #gamedev #narrativegames #adventuregames #indiegame #indiedev #voiceacting youtu.be/pP5Q23eeVNU

The Delicate Art of Making Depressing Games" The talk @thepixelhunt.bsky.social and I gave at @adventurex.bsky.social is now on Youtube! We've been told it was good. You tell me. I don't have the strength to watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnM2...

Quest Quest Ep. 59, wherein I join sandwich correspondent @grundislav.games in discussing the green room offerings at @adventurex.bsky.social before barrelling headlong into the minefield of a regional sandwich rivalry: youtu.be/KWy1WU0ZcD8?...

As @darmato.bsky.social mentioned during his #AdvX25 keynote talk, he's back on the market for voiceover acting work! And Guybrush Threepwood isn't the only voice he can do... 😉

We headed to AdventureX, an adventure game event, over the weekend to check out the many games and panels on offer. Discover our experiences in our latest article, which also includes thoughts from developer Alex Kanaris-Sotiriou. somanygames.co.uk/articles/adv... @adventurex.bsky.social

Here are a few short interviews I did at @adventurex.bsky.social for my adventure game podcast. Mostly in German, some in English. (And if you're wondering: the podcast title translates as "Use Ear With Loudspeaker".) adventurepodcast.de/folge-37-adv...

What did I do last weekend? I went to @adventurex.bsky.social 2025, of course! It was great meeting all the game devs, play demos, and chat about in-game hint systems. I finally met with @westydesign.bsky.social in live. Kieron wrote a report from the event: www.nicegamehints.com/a/report-adv...

Thomasina and Fia now living on the laptop is one of the best things that happened at AdventureX!

A great way to explain what @adventurex.bsky.social is! 👍😎 “It’s the equivalent of going to the Cannes Film Festival, with the big stars accepting you in their midst so you can hang out with them, and they show you sneak previews of their next movies.”

If you weren't at @adventurex.bsky.social this year, allow me to dig up an old video of mine that explains why you should definitely consider going next year. youtu.be/ETh1k03ED5A

Happy @adventurex.bsky.social returned this year as it’s the best convention I’ve been at and it was a blast this weekend. Amazing people, funny and insightful talks, games to look forward to So thanks for the event, and all the friends that kept me company – it made a very memorable weekend ❤️

I'm back from @adventurex.bsky.social , which was a *lovely* *lovely* event! Played some awesome games and met amazing people! Unfortunately I didn't take a lot of pictures, but thankfully I got this one with @lightfootbrosgames.bsky.social P.S love how this photo is physically timestamped :D

Now THAT'S a proper big box! What a delight to get home from @adventurex.bsky.social and unpack the brimming box of treasures that @inklingwood.bsky.social and @inklingwood-sophie.bsky.social graciously gifted us for our voiceover production work on Foolish Mortals—launched earlier this month!

My Steam Library is overfilled with unplayed masterpieces after @adventurex.bsky.social! So much to play, so much to enjoy! What is your top choice after the conf? #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

This weeks Twitch schedule! Tues/Thurs 7pm GMT (that's tonight, lol) - continuing our Cult shenanigans. Come join the cult! 🐑 Sat/Sun 2pm GMT - @adventurex.bsky.social doesn't have to end just yet! I'll be streaming some of the demos available for those unable to make it and my first impressions. 💜

Back from 2 wonderful days at #AdvX25 ! It was an honor to be part of @adventurex.bsky.social and so happy to see such a fantastic comeback of the event. A massive well done to Tom and Amy and everyone else involved in making it happen. Already can't wait for next year!

A Week in the Life of Asocial Giraffe was pretty funny too, I wonder how far they can go with this idea (a point and click where the goal is to NOT talk to anyone) store.steampowered.com/app/3071440/...
