the what did what

Tonight, South of Midnight was recognized with a BAFTA for New Intellectual Property. ✨🏆
Rooted in the stories, the sounds, and the beauty of the Deep South, this is a game built with compassion and wonder.
What a moment. What a team. What a journey.
Thank you to all our players.

Sad to hear about Ludum Dare beginning to wind down, but I think it's maybe good for people to be reminded how many of the things they consider indispensable institutions are really a single-digit number of people (often a single person) working very long & hard for little to no money

Become CRINGE.
Be ungovernable.

It's an honor to host this week's official #TurnBasedThursday!

📢 Calling all #IndieDev and #GameDev folks to show off their turn-based games below!

Thanks for hosting #TurnBasedThursday!

My game Monsters of Mican is a throwback to classics like #MightAndMagic and #Wizardry, with modern controls and QOL! Fight Sandwitches, find artifacts, learn how to turn into a dragon, race hot dogs, and so much more! Plus, new UI overhaul!

This game gets the☕stamp of approval. Great art, fun character design, menus where I can learn about what I'm encountering, and an intriguing mystery to boot.

There should be a new episode of the Indie Game Garden podcast out in a day or two, so I'm gonna share the episode I was on one more time 🙂

"Goto your Steam™ library Leave a review for a smaller game you like Now tell me what it was" There's a very crudely drawn Steam logo in the middle. In the bottom right, there's an even crudely-er drawn frog, and the sideways text reads "I am a graphic design terrorist"

With regards to that last repost, reviews can mean a lot to smaller developers, so I'm gonna put out a little call to action. Everyone following me? DO THIS NOW! I'm asking for replies so more folks pick this up, and continue it. Please take this graphic and ask your followers to do the same!

Tomorrow's the day! Tune in to hear my talk with composer @chasebethea.bsky.social about his musical background, his endeavors to make soundtracks with sounds he feels are missing from game music today, and the importance of hearing your music in context during the development cycle!

Respond to every question, every incredulous outburst, with "Believe It"

And testing @realfollowers.bsky.social
(Cause why not?)

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Appreciate the kind words.
And thanks for taking time to try the game!
