🥳🥳🥳 Switchboard is such a cool labour of love, and absolutely deserves this and so much more. A fully voice acted Papers Please-like! Set in 1950s England! With a really novel and tactile core mechanic! You should go wishlist it too! #indiegame #indiegames #papersplease #unity #solodev

Can't be stressed enough how different "members decide policy" makes the Greens to every other mainstream party. There's a structural reason the policy platform is better, created by an ideological belief in democracy and member agency obviously not shared by the neoliberal competition.

I got hyperfixated on Princess Mononoke a few years ago, including reading loads of articles about the translation, technical development, its reception, and the role of women in Miyazaki's body of work. Anyway, I have the art book now and it's super cool 👀 #ghibli

John's journalistic work is excellent and important and it's great to hear that the future of DNS seems bright. As good a time as any for me to once again recommend John's excellent and heart-rending book The Department, which outlines with deep humanity the cruelty of the DWP.

Hey you know what we haven't done in ages? A why @rascal.news fucking rocks thread! Fight Truck. Which is not just about Fight Truck. www.rascal.news/i-want-to-fi...

Been busy but we also hit fifty steam sales on our first steam release a few days back 🥳 Not bad for a weird little narrative game about green washing! #indiegame #indiedev #godot

It's time! 🥁🥁🥁 House on the Bailey's Year in Review! Our top moments, films, music, and games, one year on from when we were whispered into existence by strange and inscrutable rituals. Here's to a bigger and better 2026! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

Hugely principled and necessary action by Zarah, an excellent example of a new (old!) type of politics—this is what we should demand and expect from our representatives. Qesser has been transported by ambulance to the hospital now, thanks to this intervention, but police are descending on attendees

Here are the best games of the year according to our own @cassmarshall.bsky.social www.rogue.site/editorials/t...

It's out! 🥳 I'm insanely proud of our work here, but we've made a game that's weird, interesting, and (dare I say!) very funny. Too much to say—of what inspired us, of the themes, of the learning journey of making our first game, of the amazing experience of exhibiting it—but I'll stick to "wow".

It's my birthday, so you should buy my game 🥳 It's good, I promise, we even have 100% positive rating! (1 review) #indiedev #pixelart #narrativegame #pixelart

Belated, but the day after releasing Behind the Hydra's Eyes, I travelled ~250 miles across the UK. Grey clouds holding back a marbled blue, rolling hills of sodden greens and browns, distant ghostly shapes of trees and turbines—omens written in gnarled wood and steel, engines masking whispers.

I will be reading this over Christmas as a festive treat to myself—a chunky 661 page behemoth of archival work. I'd actually been waiting eagerly for it after reading Iskra's other archival collection on the PLO earlier this year, and have my eyes on some of their beautiful poetry collections.

One of those games that stays with you in the best of ways. Tonally one of the most carefully balanced games I've ever played. Amazing work.

It's official, Behind the Hydra's Eyes is out now on Steam 🤯 For £4.99, you too can experience the joys of British office work. Answer emails, make tea, and avoid thinking about the building sense of dread! store.steampowered.com/app/3554030/... #indiegames #godot #narrative #pixelart #steam

Ad layout on Canary's website layout makes this read like an onion gag lmao. Anyway, people powered politics is the future, huge props to Zack and everyone working to make the Greens a vehicle for hope.

I'm at the airport waiting for my flight home from AdventureX 2025, so here's a thread of the games that were exhibited at this year's event.

HotB will be there!! 🥳🤯🤯 Come say hi to me and @dragosf.bsky.social if you like leftist pixel games or satire that's equal parts bleak and surreal!

Fishing is so passé, now it's all about making a nice brew in a bleak British office against the backdrop of corporate greed and greenwashing. Or something. Wishlist now, and play the demo! store.steampowered.com/app/3554030/... #indiegame #indiedev #godot #pixelart

Want an indie game about the bleak comedy of UK office jobs? No? Well we made one anyway. You're welcome! 🖥️ Play the demo today -> tinyurl.com/BtHEdemo #indiegame #godot #nextfest

🚨 Our demo is now live! If you've been yearning for a satirical pixel game about being an office project manager with the unfortunate debuff of being British, then...that's odd. But boy have we got the game for you! Play and let us know what you think -> tinyurl.com/BtHEdemo #nextfest #indiegame

My degree touched on this, where I looked specifically at the imposition of slaughterhouses in Vietnam, both as vectors for outbreaks and as important sites of racialisation. 'Slaughterhouse Capitalism' is a very useful term to understand both of these and how they shaped capitalist development.

Huge support for the actionists ✊

1952, Empire Grand. The DEMO for Switchboard is now live on Steam and itch, your first invitation to experience this game and its story. Try it early, and wishlist before Next Fest! store.steampowered.com/app/3931650/... jqhy.itch.io/switchboard #indiegames #indiedev #game #demo #gaming #gamedev

This is not a drill, demo is live! Go piss about in our lovingly crafted horrible office simulator! What a milestone 🥳

More vital pixel work, and some of my best yet 🙏 #pixelart #indiedev

A red line for Palestine. Greens gathered on Bournemouth beach this morning to show solidarity with the people of Palestine. End the genocide End the occupation. Free Palestine 🇵🇸 @greens4palestine.bsky.social

Hard at work making important content for the game 👀 #pixelart #indiedev

🥳 Ordered! Congrats to Thea on the accomplishment. Will try and binge read it before BtHE is finished to help me freshen up the script and add any new info or insights. Green politics without greenwashing! #anticapitalism

Thank you to everyone for support Play for Peace: Games for Palestine charity bundle. We have just reached $100,000 and with 2 days left, Please give us a boost and support by Repost the bundle!! itch.io/b/2979/play-...

To wrap it all up-Oscar, the incredible flying Ostrich by @thomashunt.bsky.social and Renato Baroni. Stunning decorations aside, Oscar himself moves and feels incredible while you're holding the controller, leading to his many stunts feeling very satisfying. Hilariously written, one to look out for

To the right, we had another important game proudly presenting Palestine and support groups-The Activists. While not on itch, the game does an incredible job to put the players in the shoes of people that are capable and want to make a change. Break into a weapons factory and disrupt the status quo

EXTRA special shout out to the two games our stall was sandwiched between, which were both centred themselves around Palestine, with Cagla focusing on the importance of memory and the deep roots of history, while Rebecca considers the necessity of direct action and internationalism. 🇵🇸✊

Check this thread for a quick rundown of some of the great games we exhibited alongside last week! Lots of them are playable on Itch, and more than worth the short time investment to experience: #indiegames

Aaaand it's over! We've had a very busy, very fun three days exhibiting Behind the Hydra's eyes and mingling with other cool developers. Thanks to everyone that played it! To everyone else: psst, we're launching the demo on Steam soon 😉 store.steampowered.com/app/3554030/... #IndieGame #IndieDevs

🚨We're exhibiting Behind the Hydra's Eyes in person this weekend! Watching people enjoy it is a very nice shock, and such a privilege to be surrounded by other great games by great people (I'll share some below when I get chance!). Wishlist us!: store.steampowered.com/app/3554030/... #indiegame

I think (totally unbiased lol) that our game is full of really great writing. The dialogue option that this is part of is probably one of my favourites though. Living in Britain is pretty brutal, unless you protect yourself with a veil of ignorance. Let the veil fall: fight the hydra, find hope!

Steve Reed was my MP before I moved. He ignored a load of my emails, then replied to one, where I asked if he'll carry out his legal duties to hold Israel to account for genocide, spouting blatant Zionist propaganda and victim blaming the targets of the genocide. Does this represent Co-op values?

Solidarity ✊

It seems I'll be doing another Iskra order soon 👀 I've been waiting for this one since reading their (also very beautiful) PLO collected documents. 🇵🇸✊

I saw that Tabitha Arnold is exhibiting in NYC next week, and am thinking again about how stunningly breathtaking her tapestries are, capturing a people's history. Very jealous of those privileged enough to see them in person!

Behind the Hydra's Eyes is a satirical office sim with something lurking underneath. If you like your games wordy, experimental, and deeply political, it might just be for you. Our steam demo is coming soon, so wishlist now! ➡️ tinyurl.com/2bxz9mr2 #indiegame #godot #pixelart #indiedev
