Woah, look at that - big ol' saving on Ant Workshop games on Steam this week, especially if you grab the bundle!

Eggplant Presents: A Year of UFO 50 - Campanella 2 We're joined by @ellaguro.bsky.social @russfrushtick.bsky.social and @xanagear.bsky.social to discuss game #35. "Pilot's gone missing on a giant space station and his sister Isabell is determined to find him!" eggplant.show/ep-a-year-of...

Having a great time with Restless Ruins. It does a LOT of things I like a lot: - screwed over by my own hubris - tense 'torch running out mechanic' is gold - best laid plans unfurl into horrifying shit Big recommend from me. Deserves to do well, hop on it: store.steampowered.com/app/2877770/...

Into the Restless Ruins is a deckbuilder in the Scottish highlands, where you create a dungeon then battle through it. Out now on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and Steam! store.steampowered.com/app/2877770/...

The Harvest Maiden awaits...🌟 @ant-workshop.com's Into the Restless Ruins is out now on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S & Nintendo Switch.

The worst thing about UFO 50 is that it came out at exactly the right point to stop me sinking a bunch of time into Utopia Must Fall, but I've played enough to recommend it heartily, and to be excited by the prospect of a big update!

WAGON https://store.steampowered.com/app/2458920/ $9.34 WAGON is a 1-bit card game where you make tough decisions to try and survive winter on the Oregon Trail.

Our new boss stage is progressing nicely! (I wanted a LOT of bats) #pixelart #ドット絵 #vikingsontrampolines

I totally appreciate that people need to make a living in this hell world we live in, so do what you need to do, I’m just personally kinda despondent on the publishing discourse. The only viable long term solution is a universal basic income, I don’t want to play the game of capitalism at all.

Some photos from a birding trip at the weekend! Red Kite, male and female Mandarin Ducks and a male Chaffinch. I've got quite a few photos of Red Kites because they fly over our garden fairly frequently, but none quite so well-lit and clear. Also, good to see Mandarin Ducks so close!

I made a mash-up of the music from Warptank, from #UFO50, with the song 'Creep'!

I had a dream that I found a copy of Caves of Qud for the Nintendo 64 in a games shop. I was impressed that they'd managed to get it running on such old hardware, but when I loaded it up I got a load of FMV sequences.

Hello! I have something new coming out soon. It's a big collection of some of my favourite little games from the past decade or so. Here's the steam page! store.steampowered.com/app/2824580/...

Back in 2021, PMG reported on the unseen games industry crunch taking place at outsourcing studios in SE Asia. Since then, the companies we looked at have continued to work on some of the biggest games in the world, without any push to improve the conditions of the artists doing that work. (1/7)

Hey, The Sirena Expedition is half price in the Steam Winter Sale, which means that you can pick it up for yourself, or for a friend, for less than the price of a high street coffee. And it's got way better graphics; look! store.steampowered.com/app/1957300

The 2024 Steam Awards proving yet again that if you democratise game of the year awards, you're still just going to get a list of the games that had the most money behind them (and Balatro), so what's even the point?

The walls are closing in for trans folk. Really feels great how little of a shit most cis folk give. I couldn't even persuade my own friends to join trans pride this year, don't think there's much hope of widespread action against any of this shit
