A tribute to a legend in the blogging space, and an attempt of trying to cope with the loss, I feel.

I'm live right now showcasing an upcoming CCG called #CelestialDecks. Come hang out! twitch.tv/magiwastaken

For anyone who would like to send flowers/plant a tree/donate to help cats in honor of #Belghast, his obituary can be found here: https://www.honoringmemoriesnowata.com/obituaries/mark-temple Pinging @Gazimoff#belghastas he has more reach than I. Love to everyone.

With so much AI slop coming out, it's more important than ever that we showcase the truly creative and fun and unique indie gems out there! Today, I bring a few of my personal highlights from the recent #SteamNextFest. Go check these out! Fuck AI.

Had an absolute blast interviewing @historysquid.bsky.social on the second episode of #TheVTubingRadio! Make sure to check out the interview we did and learn about the unique background, her experience on Twitch, and her thoughts on the space. (Also lots of very cute dogs)

For today's #review, I've returned from the dead to dive deep into the neon-clad metropolises and underworlds to fight off former pop stars in #DeadAsDisco, but sadly, not everything was as it seems.

Milki Delivery's demo will stay up after Next Fest! We are not sure yet if we'll keep it once the game is out, but it will at least stay available for a few more months. It also doesn't have any DRMs, so you can download it and play it in the future if you want to. Have fun 🐮💕

My article on Indiecator is in the works still! Since a lot of them might vanish soon, though, I wanted to showcase a bunch of cool (& AI-free) #indiegame demos I found during #SteamNextFest here so that y'all get to play them.

We have been asked to allow petting the cat before but not the catgirl! Okay fine we'll do both :3

✊🏾Today is Juneteenth!✊🏾 Juneteenth commemorates the day in 1865 when Union troops finally enforced the Emancipation Proclamation in Galveston, Texas. It was TWO YEARS AFTER slaves were supposedly “free,” and marks the true effective end to cartel slavery of Black people in the US. #juneteenth

CW: Wasp So, this little booger can't fly, it seems, so I carefully placed him outside of the window onto my roof. Not sure what kinda wasp he is but these were the best pics I could take without causing us both distress. Got him some sugar water droplets. Named him Heinrich. I worry already.

That one Bra Strap meme

You know, a while back, I've come to the realisation that Attack on Titan is a mecha show... but I only just realised that, technically speaking, Ratatouille is a mecha-cooking-film? Like, rat-dude controls a massive humanoid to go to combat for him. That's mecha af, no? Or Flesha perhaps?

Oh my god. I didn't realize Truck Kun was just Crazy Taxi + GTA combined with the best writing I've ever seen. @strangescaffold.bsky.social really hit something special with this one!! store.steampowered.com/app/3642010/...

This is how we build our indie noir deckbuilder game, Stabjack. 🖤🃏 #Stabjack #indiegame #noir #Roguelike #deckbuilder

#SteamNextFest is here and 20% percent of the games there are made using #generativeAI, and yet, there's still no clearly visible disclosure nor a filter option to remove those from your recommendations, search results and event pages. Some thoughts.

Now that Spirit Crossing is no longer mobile only, I have been playing quite a bit of the steam playtest. If you dig wholesome/cozy mmos, then i suggest you check this out. aggronaut.com/2026/06/10/s...

TIL that the little flab of skin on one's elbow is called a "weenis". Anyway, I got a mosquito bite on my weenis. It's really annoying.

I recently got to interview FlatNine Games' Christine Wade and Harrison Wade of the upcoming job sim/escape room, #LetterLost! I had a grand time and would love it if you could check that out. :)

So odd seeing a person that blocked you undo that to send you a DM only to block you afterwards.

I visited #DoKomi2026 for the first time this year and discovered a great gem of an indie game (in the creative games area in Hall 9) called #WardingWitches by @sonorode.com, which is an upcoming bullet hell shmup that took up more of my time than I'd like to admit. indiecator.org/2026/05/30/w...

Piraknights Games sets out to provide you with an interesting mix of Dungeon Keeper and Black & White, all wrapped in a modern new coating, but it ultimately fails to let go of my hand and actually let me play the game. More on that in today's #review of #Sintopia.

I'm really looking forward to being part of the @livgames.net Accessibility in the Games Industry 2026 panel at the Liv Game Summit 2026 on June 11th. Will I see you there?

#SIGONO managed to surpass my already high expectations with their latest entry into the award-winning #OPUS series, and Prism Peak has managed to touch me in ways that barely any games managed to do so far. This might just be my Game of the Year. Here's my #review of #OPUSPrismPeak!

This really is why we need labels like “No AI” or “100% Human-Made”. Because even though most sloperators will happily lie by omission, I doubt most of them would risk outright falsely advertising their work to unsuspecting customers & clients.

I love drawing items and icons. If this is something you need I’d love to help out!

One of the (many, many) things I resent about "AI" is the implication that videogames are wanting for some kind of technological revolution Artistically, videogames are doing so well imo. What game devs actually need is: affordable rent, stable employment, free education, etc.

Gamers are upset about consultants. Must be another day ending in Y.

Thanks so much for the Letter Lost feature! Our release date is just around the corner and is being announced soon, so keep an eye out for more info on when you can play the full game! #indiegame #indiedev #upcominggame

I've started an all-new series about #VTubers and #VTubing-related people, trying to amplify cool voices in the space. The first video in this series features VTubingExplained, a pretty cool YouTuber! It'd be incredibly awesome if you could signal boost this. ^-^) www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jm--...
