This masterpiece is like $8 Australian and that is a crime but also one you should take advantage of immediately.

I know we're biased and of course also lots of games have unique requirements that might make them a bad fit for Yarn Spinner... BUT ALSO sometimes I look into a game that looks like it might be Yarn Spinner and instead find a bespoke solution than I can never unsee and will haunt me to my grave.

The original Escape Academy is one of our favourite Yarn Spinner games of all time, and we have spent many an hour scratching our heads through its puzzles. The sequel will definitely be one to watch! 🔑🧩

White House announcement about "not observing Pride Month" just an elaborate psy-op. Leadership instead to commemorate by orchestrating the most toxic yaoi imaginable.

People vagueskeeting about “the FFT announcement” today had me scouring online to figure out what math shit had been announced at the State of Unreal or something that I’d somehow missed. It turns out that I* am a big idiot† * a lady doing a PhD in space radars † forget that Final Fantasy exists

Our state leader got ousted so it’s either a change in leadership (which they swore they won’t do) or dissolve the government 14 months into a 4-year term. On the same day as the local winter arts festival takes over the city, covering it in spooky red lighting and fires. Ah, Tasmania 🔥🗑️

Delightful to see A Short Hike still getting love 💚 It was one of the earliest YS titles to achieve critical success, and the first one (we didn't work on) to win a major industry award. It's been a huge influence on the direction of the project, and we're so thrilled we got to be a part of it.

Congrats to IO Interactive on pulling a full Larian Studios and being given the go ahead to build the actual game they have been trying to make for decades.

The politics of our lil' isle down at the bottom of the planet is rarely covered in mass media but just know that the fun local tradition of the government nearly getting rolled every 6 months by petty bickering between functionally identical opposing parties is holding strong 🥂 #PoliTas #TasPol

Happy Pride, folks! We'd say something like "why not commemorate Pride Month by writing some great, impactful, sometimes sexy interactive stories and narrative games about, by and for queer people?" ...but why bother; you're already doing it you good things💚

Happy pride folks I'm still fleshing out the entries, but here's a list of over 200 retro games (pre-2010) which were made by trans people or which had trans people on the dev team. We have always been here. dotmaetrix.neocities.org/classictrans...

Main character energy is OUT, this summer we’re bringing NPC energy. We’re posted up at the bar dropping lore and suggesting side quests. We’re leaning casually near a locked door and saying “I don’t think you have the key for that” when someone tries the handle. We’re staring at a tree.

This is an almost-complete game made by a great team who has been sadly hit with publisher drama. Their kickstarter is live now, so why not treat yourself to a froggy 3D platforming adventure?! 🐸💚
