Revealing our last studio's game!!! 💥JUMP THE TRACK An explosive comedy that blends visual novel with pachinko! We're self-publishing this one, so your support means a ton 💜

If you have a turn based game on steam then you should apply to this event hosted by wonderful people :)

So Becoming Saint now runs on the SteamDeck too 😇😎 A new playtest will open soon, sign up to the link in the comment to get a link to a build! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oe2Q... #indiegames #rts #roguelike #roguelite

For all the people that don't want to play Kingdom comes deliverance 2 (yet) Rift of the necrodancer just released and I'm loving it (despite being very bad at it) store.steampowered.com/app/2073250/... If you are low on budget Crypt of the necrodancer is heavily discounted too !

Second announcement! I am part of a new creator club! I am proud to announce I have joined @firesquid.games in their Firesquad content creator program! I'll have new and early access to lots of lovely and interesting games (Like Reus 2 recently)! Looking forward to new opportunities!

Took screenshot of my 1300 people city in City Tales: Medieval Era. It's a lovely chill game and can't wait until full release! Thank you @firesquid.games for letting me play it before most mortals! #citybuilder #indie

👑 From humble beginnings to a lively kingdom! #indiegame #Steam #CityBuilder #MedievalMonday

Hey everyone! I've been part of @firesquid.games's FireSquad for about 10 months now and I have only positive things to say! The team couldn't be nicer and the games they publish are great. If you're a fan of indie strategy games, make sure you check out their catalog!

Just be prepared. We've all seen that headline going around today that Bluesky is the current #1 app, and X dropped out of the top 25. That means the absolute worst people in the world are going to be coming here trying to turn THIS place into just as much of a shithole. Block them. Don't engage.

The "Coming Soon" meme is finally dead. Happy to retroactively announce that @firesquid.games has been working with me on showing some cool indie titles! Today might be another one ;)

Okay, Matthew Ball's The State of Video Gaming in 2025 is a really monumental achievement and an absolute gold mine of stats that put the current game industry into its economic context. Strongly recommend. www.matthewball.co/all/stateofv...

The Reus 2 Ice Age DLC & Cataclysm Update are OUT! 🦣 Explore a new biome with unique mechanics, leaders, and Era options in the DLC 🌪️ Discover relationships between cities and natural disaster abilities with the free Update Buy the DLC: store.steampowered.com/app/3333960/... youtu.be/uUcH_qO_R30

I've been doing some more indie game PR! The ecology-building god game Reus 2 is getting a huge update tomorrow and its first DLC. Streamers, YouTubers, writers or anyone showcasing indie games, I've got Steam keys! Fill in the form and share it around. I only promote games I personally enjoy.

Are you ready to become a saint? And bring justice, benevolence to all, and some small side personal benefits to you? Join Becoming Saint playtest now for playing next week!!!

Why do video games cost so much to make these days? A recent NYT article pinned bloated budgets on the graphical arms race, but that's only a small part of the equation. The real problem? Rampant mismanagement. This week's column is a spicy one: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...
