I know everyone is bitter, frustrated and traumatized. The world is growing increasingly unhinged by the day and the economy is squeezing us tighter every moment.
But the least we can do is hold fire until we know what we're shooting at. Don't go lashing out at everything based on gut feelings.
Boxroom is an upcoming home designer game that turns your actual Steam library into physical game boxes you can browse and arrange on your shelves.

The BOXROOM Demo is now also live on @itch.io for those of you that might want to curate, arrange and display your game collection via there (just make sure you're still logged into Steam)

Congrats!
Dude. I feel like we have nearly the same industry origin story.
Great interview so far (only a part of the way in)
Can't wait to listen!
Great data! Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻
And just to be clear how many of these games did you also fund the development of as well as publishing?

#6: Occlude; this is for real puzzle freaks. A solitaire game where every level has a hidden rule about how to complete it, which has to be deduced from extremely scarce clues. Few deduction games are willing to be this challenging and cryptic. store.steampowered.com/app/3547010/...
Good heavens it’s the Steam Winter Sale!
We got 15% off It Take a War!
25% off Occlude!
A chunky 40% off Sub-Verge!
And 85% (!) off Acolyte!
Or get the whole Misfits collection for the equivalent of (an absurd) fifteen dollar bucks.

Steam Replay accidentally exposing that barely anyone is playing new games anymore. Just 14% of total playtime was for 2025 games
Wonder why new studios are dying so frequently
later today we'll have an in depth interview with @enigmastud.io hitting inboxes for our Primo subscribers - we have a lovely ol' natter about the birth of the studio, Jamie's trilogy or horror work, and upcoming horse adventure: TÖLT 🐎

Games Journalists:
In two days No Players Online, a meta-fictional spooky game about an "online" shooter is releasing on steam.

This is an indie Armageddon/Deep Impact situation.

This so much. I'm grateful for how much lower my water bill will be thanks to the rain.
Next spiderman game confirmed? 😁
🤔
Don't buy a real branded TRX, there are cheaper alternatives 😉
I used it during the pandemic and it was really great for all around strength training at home. Can do a pretty full body workout with it.
Haha changing weights is sometimes a workout in itself 😅 I know the feeling.
Have you tried a TRX?
What was your original lifting program and what results were you looking for?
Also, F burpees 🤮
