huge news! TEN BEAUTIFUL POSTCARDS by thecatamites (Anthology Of The Killer) is now on steam the first game that made me realise ‘wait- maybe I could make a game’ it expresses so much without challenge or even collision 💫 store.steampowered.com/app/4916370/...
i like this review from bennett @foddy.net 'it's the biggest flatgame ever made. This game has all the perverse grandeur of a thousand-page haiku' foddy.net/blog/2019/06...
with the steam release approaching, thecatamites is giving away his 10 Beautiful Postcards post-mortem for free this month. the best commentator on the ungodly process of game making thecatamites.itch.io/postcard-wri...

i just published a post about my time at @glasgowindiegamesfest.org "When you strip back the commercialism, the urge to “sell”, and with that remove all the predatory behavior capitalism encourages… you are left with something human that creates the groundwork for games to be relevant to everyone."
still glowing after GIGF26 @glasgowindiegamesfest.org its heartening to see so many beautiful people exploring the potential of indie games by just following their own personal fascinations and micro obsessions my faith in the medium has been restored for another year

this can still be on your GOTY list if you loosen your concept of calendar
Curious typo Anthology of the Killer wasn’t on all GOTY lists🏆 Turns out games dont need 'gameplay loops' and 'juice' they can just be thoughtful, singular and filled with a palpable excitement to exist store.steampowered.com/app/3212530/Anthology_Of_The_Killer
