for the stream tonight, we're going cozy as I return to Stardew Valley for some coziness research for my next book youtu.be/e8MG4oPaVcQ

seeing people mention Time Bandit on sale makes me want to go back and play more of it. I didn't get far with it while looking at it for the IGF and now I have a small amount of free time to look closer at it store.steampowered.com/app/1481910/...

For the month of June, I basically covered nothing but indie games between turn-based fest and next fest. Now it's time to break out the calculator and see just how many games did I cover this month.

this is it, one final best of steam next fest video and we're back to normal videos and podcasts for next week. Here are the #indiegamedev shoutout and I'll do a final tally post of coverage after this one is up. youtu.be/pp5dyTGkHiU

for my book on cozy design, I'm going to be doing a replay of Stardew Valley, are there any great QOL of content mods I should look into for it?

And that's a wrap on Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo. Really great game, far more platforming centric than you might think from the screenshots. store.steampowered.com/app/2870350/...

For the stream tonight, we're back with more of Pipistrello and checking out the RTS Moduwar youtu.be/P1mxrtyMSdE

today is the penultimate part of my best of next fest coverage and tomorrow ends this 3 week marathon of #indiegamedev showcases youtu.be/b9LIT5YPfY8 here are today's shoutout 🧵

it's that time again to ask #indiegamedev for any hidden gem recommendations from the steam summer sale.

I'm working on my book on the cozy/wholesome games market at the moment. Is there an agreed-upon distinction between the two? And what would be a great example of a cozy game vs. a wholesome one?

Reposting it for the night folks in case you missed it. The latest part of my best of steam next fest series is up, and there are only a few more parts left.

starting up next, it's time for my weekly indie game showcase stream looking at new and upcoming indie games, and I'm always looking for more games to check out youtu.be/7Gn7di4fZ9s
