Introducing the Games From Ireland Steam Event, a week-long digital showcase.
Running on Steam during St Patrick’s Day 2026, 13th March - 20th March, this is an Imirt-led initiative, developed in collaboration with Irish developers and studios worldwide.

Eighthwell splash screen with a laptop showing the game in the foreground and a themed banner on the table.
Another fantastic demo, and one that absolutely blew me away, was Eighthwell by Lutum Games.
This is an action-adventure that really channels 16-bit Zelda games, Undertale and Earthbound, and it has plenty of charm and humour to boot.
One to watch!

Happy new year everyone! 🎉
Truly my greatest work 🔥

Sorting a couple of festival applications this week, wish me luck ☘️

Here's a little taste of the music in #Eighthwell! This one's from a boss fight.

Thanks! I really like how this rain effect came out, I'll have to find excuses to add more rain to the game.
Hi #ScreenshotSaturday 👋
I've been doing some music updating and marketing work this week.
Please enjoy this unrelated clip of Oscar splashing in puddles 🌧️

Another vote for Aseprite. Even paid it's pretty cheap.
That's a good way of looking at it
Even marketing? 😲
No, this is the only account I use at the minute.
That does sound satisfying. That's one I haven't done myself yet.
I was fixing a bug with how the player taking damage in my game was being handled last week and I really hope I never have to dig deep into that stuff again, I have no recollection of how any of it works and it is not easy to figure out what's going on 😅
Oh no 😭
Here you go! The info's in this thread.

You may be in an unhealthy relationship with your game engine 🤣
It really is addictive sometimes. No I can't go to bed until this bug is fixed 😂
And then it's just really nice to see all the shiny new stuff in game 😄
Ah there'll definitely be a good bit of overlap then haha.
Weekend long game jams are super hard to be fair. Working with a team if you aren't already might help if you're newer to them.
I love doing the pixel art for my game, especially the animations! Really looking forward to when I can just sit and do a chunk of art for the next area in my game 😊
Would you find you do a lot of similar stuff in your job? I program for work as well but I tend to find there isn't really a lot of overlap with my job and game dev.
I completely get the unnecessary systems, Eighthwell did not need a whole fishing mini game but it's probably going to have one anyway 😂 That's a great way to be, you're way more likely to stick with a project if you're having fun making it!
