As @darmato.bsky.social mentioned during his #AdvX25 keynote talk, he's back on the market for voiceover acting work! And Guybrush Threepwood isn't the only voice he can do... 😉

@jamespatton.bsky.social DuskPunk is magnificent! I've been at it ever since #AdvX25 and I'm only sad to have reached the end. I hope DLC of some kind emerges, as I kinda want to play this in perpituity.
An extremely satisfying and engaging game, and I look forward to discovering its other routes!

Loved that multiple people at #AdvX25 asked about our experience with @godotengine.org on Ashwood Conspiracy and that many are considering using it or already are. The future looks bright for Godot ☺️

Everyone mentioning Pratchett as a huge inspiration in the comedy talk at #Advx25 was yet another confirmation that #Discworld and Adventures go hand in hand perfectly ❤️

The two days of #AdvX25 flew by! We're incredibly grateful that we could exhibit our game and be part of this wonderful conference.

Huge thank you to the organizers, volunteers, and all the players who stopped and tried our demo.

A weekend we'll never forget.

When creating print work for a client, you deliver the best quality you can, and then just have to hope the client knows what to do with it. In the case of #AdvX25 I was BLOWN AWAY by the level of execution, from the biggest rollup banner to the smallest badge. Thank you @adventurex.bsky.social!

Back on Irish soil and on the bus to Galway. I had a great time at #AdvX25, despite feeling quite ill throughout Sunday.

It was wonderful speaking to so many people about Blake Manor, and catching up with friends.

Looking forward to next year already.

A schedule display at the London St. Pancras International terminal showing the 12:31 train to Paris only just boarding at 13:24, my 12:01 train to Brussels being delayed 44 minutes (and rising), and the 13:32 train to Brussels having been cancelled outright.

An hour long delay for me on the @eurostarnews.bsky.social. Fortunately I saw @golosogames.bsky.social and Pierre Corbinais in the waiting area, whose train was delayed even more, and we had a nice post #AdvX25 chat.

Can't believe #AdventureX is over. It's incredible that a new team, in a new venue, delivered such a brilliant event. There were wonderful talks & games bursting with creativity, but above all it meant meeting the most delightful & talented people in the nicest community imaginable. #AdvX25

So many inspiring talks, chats with cool people. Got to see quite a few people I'd met in previous years and quite a few I hadn't met in real life before. This really is *the* event of the year for me. #AdvX25

The percentage of words spoke by male and female characters in each mainline Final Fantasy game. Only X-2, which had three female protagonists, comes close to an equal split. When this talk appears on YouTube later check out the slide for boob size vs likelihood of being allowed to posses a sword later in the talk.

The overflow room meant that we were still able to enjoy the talks that were packed out, in this case the excellent Dominic Armato talking about "The Threepwood Method" for defeating imposter syndrome.
