We finished Cairn last week. This one's something special. 🏔️ Beautiful & brutal, it offers more than a top level "climbing game" summary can provide. Might be one of my favorite games, period.
TY @thegamebakers.com for the amazing game & experience! 🫶 So excited for the DLC!

Honestly, the writers really fell off with this one. Plot lines are just so all over the place and nonsensical. Like, who would ever believe these characters?? Did an editor even GLANCE at this script? Just read the wiki at the end - not worth watching.

How ✨freaking✨ cool. More of this please!!
There is not a single quark of my being that disagrees with this.
Thanks!!

Yeah, and I kicked its ass. Obvs. 💁♀️🌈

Trying to plot out the best climbing route, cooking meals for max calories, bearing witness to memories of things lost -- all against a beautiful mountain landscape? I srsly can't put this game down.
(Streaming more Cairn tonight, if that wasn't obvious)
Oh, no, please, don't move your secret goon squad from terrorizing our neighborhoods to...*checks notes* domestic airport security in a very visible, supervised, & defined role w little opportunity to live out violent power fantasies?
I don't wanna get ahead of myself, but...🤞
Titanium Court | @fellowtraveller.games🔸Throw a match-three in a blender w Midsummer Night's Dream then add in some extra absurd narrative dissonance. Surprisingly addictive, groaned out loud at the end of the demo. Just play the demo - character limits won't do this justice.

ROVA | @freerangedevs.bsky.social 🔸Be a space rover, put googly eyes on hapless astronauts, take pictures, document alien worlds, & honk. The minimalist art design & color palettes are very soothing and add to the other-worldly atmosphere. A v v good de-stress game.

Collector's Cove | @voodooduckgames.bsky.social🔸If Raft were single player with "adorable" cranked up to 11, it would look something like this game. Visit islands, grow crops on your ship, take care of your locomotive Plesiosaur. Super super cute collect-a-thon.

I streamed it on Tuesday! It was the last demo for that night, but I was running a bit short on time and didn't get to spend too much time with it. A member of my community played and recommended it earlier so I was excited to check it out!
All Will Rise | @allwillrise.bsky.social🔸Card-based, narrative eco-battle to protect a river. Haven't played anything quite like this - sorta like studying dialectic tools in a logic class. Play cards to make arguments, rebuttals, chain cause & effects, etc in courtroom setting.

Wax Heads | @waxheadsgame.bsky.social 🔸Can already tell this one is gonna be a good time. You're a new hire at a record store, helping customers find the vinyl of their dreams. Colorful characters (both literally and metaphorically) and great music seals the deal.

Celestial Return | @metaphor-games.bsky.social 🔸Cyberpunk detective noir vibes w dice determined story checks. Mechanics felt a bit like Citizen Sleeper. It's stylish & gritty & feels like a graphic novel that needed more than pen & paper offered. I was invested fast!

🎮✨😎 NEXT FEST FEBRUARY 2026 😎✨🎮
Happy Next Fest, gamers! Once again, sharing and highlighting the demos I play on stream this week. Thread below!

*seeing a car going to the shittiest place money can buy*
ohhhhh noooooo please don't leave me behind oh nooooooooooo
Next week is Steam Next Fest and I can not wait to suffer under the staggering weight of too many delicious game demos...
An absolutely amazing stream last night, and one that smashed our Creators Against ICE fundraiser goal multiple times. 🥹 Not too shabby for a bunch of goblins w fat asses, tbh. Thank you all so much for being a part of this chaotic and wonderful crew.

We're live and getting into ALLLL sort of goblin silliness! Raising money for the National Immigration Law Center 💗 (and fuck ICE)
Trying to make meaningful improvements and progress while fighting an uphill battle against generations of good ol boy political leaders and gerrymandering, just like so many other regions! (Tho the humidity is awful, not sugar coating that!)
Tomorrow (err later today) I'm joining some very cool folks to play the one page TTRPG "Goblins with a Fat Ass" and I'm incredibly excited! We'll be starting up around 7 CST and raising money for Creators Against ICE. 🫶

Wise words from my browser home page earlier today.
I got my Extra Life page up and running for this year! If you'd like to join the team or learn more about playing games to help sick children, let me know. 💙Game Day is November 7th - so you've got plenty of time to get ready!

Thursday got me like...
More Cairn tonight! It's been tough not playing between streams - I've only gotten to scratch the surface of the game. We'll be climbing around 7:30 CST - hope to see some of you there!
Playing Cairn, raising money for Minnesota, and talking about cats! 💗 Live now!

Tomorrow is my birthday. I haven't been able to escape the fact it's a birthday Renee Good & Alex Pretti didn't get🕯️
Might not be much, but my streams this week will be going to MN aid groups. If anyone wants to give me a gift of some kind, donating/sharing the MN support link would be a great one.
