Thanks for such a beautiful day @qldgamesfestival.bsky.social Check out some of these amazing games from the show ⤵️ @rockalot.bsky.social Bumper Bout @louis-van-dyke.bsky.social Pizza Dungeon @abandonedsheep.com Schrödinger's Cat Burglar @playmomento.com Oh wait, that's us

Tried to get a nice sunset picture of my dog at the beach. Great success 🤷

This may be the most important Wikipedia article I've come across 😂 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

Personal opinion and all that, but I think a parliament without Adam Bandt, Max Chandler-Mather, Zoe Daniel, and potentially, Monique Ryan and Jacqui Lambie will be a much worse parliament indeed. Pretty devastating election in many respects.

Releasing a game today!!

Now’s the time to activate politically and seize the opportunity to pressure our government into much needed fossil fuel, tax and housing reforms. Let’s get to it 💪

Hey, I do game trailer consulting! Whether you need an expert's eye on a draft of your trailer, an idea for the direction of your game's trailer, or anything trailer related. You get a recorded critique, annotated frame.io link and 1 hour video call with me.

Forgot to share pics from my visit to Goat Henge the other week here 😂

it’s Bandcamp Friday today! a good time to grab recent releases from folks, but also anything of mine that you’ve had an eye on including my (Now-Ivor-Nominated) OST for Flock! also - please keep your eyes peeled for something new from me later today*! elirainsberry.bandcamp.com/album/flock-...

Here's a hypothetical. How would you go about developing 'taste' as a designer/artist in games if you had to start from scratch again? What are the key pieces of media that come to mind for you as excellent reference points?

i have a bunch of promo codes for holedown on android that are about to expire. no sense in sitting on those! tell me why you need one and i'll hook you up.

How your email finds Bonnie this morning.

Truly a lady of leisure. She doesn’t know how good she’s got it.

Can’t take the dog anywhere without being stopped for selfies and meet & greets. It’s honestly like living with a minor celebrity 😅

www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eKw... It’s April 25th, 2025!!... So that means that…World of Goo 2 – the followup to the indie-hit classic World of Goo, which was released almost 17 years ago…is available…EVERYWHERE!

When you go to check the dog cam, but the cat has changed the angle and stolen the show…

📖My book is out! My book Mytholudics: Games and Myth is now available. In it, I propose a way of understanding and analysing games as and through myth. @degruyterbrill.bsky.social doi.org/10.1515/9783...

Support these fine folk if you’ve got the dollarydoo’s!

2nd 10k down for the week 🏃‍♂️ Couldn’t ask for a nicer finish line!

This game did generally good in numbers so we are planning to bring to to PC/Consoles... is there any publisher that might be interested in that? Happy to discuss it further!

It's no longer cold

Absolutely devastated by the loss of my beautiful friend Narayana Johnson. The depth of kindness and creativity he possessed was second to none. I love you brother, I’ll carry your radiant light with me always.

5 years already!?!? It’s been a treat to follow along with how the DPC team has kept Motorways not just relevant, but thriving since we launched back in 2020 🦕
