thank you for this game, @origamedigital.bsky.social

It's 2026 and games are still being judged based on if they are fun or not. No other medium is so discredited by the people who supposedly enjoy it.

Employee 925 turns 1 today. Free to keep on itch for the next 24h, with a bonus Android version added today. Enjoy. jantunes.itch.io/employee925

I had a great chat with RTP Arena, from the Portuguese public broadcaster, about Employee 925 which quickly branched out to other parts of my game dev life. In Portuguese but Google Translate does wonders.

A closer look at what we’ve been cooking up with Nightholme 👀 #horror #gamedev

I’ve boxed myself into thinking every videogame I create has to be radically original. The result is chronical creative paralysis. Meanwhile, I see others iterate on familiar ideas and still manage to make them feel new. What is the trick?

I entered a random art museum yesterday. It's free admission and the concept is to give a space for artists to take risks without thinking about profit. I mention that me and some friends produce interactive installations, playful media, etc. Answer: "oh, we are really just focused on art" 💀💀💀

Employee 925 is on a 30% discount right now, the cheapest it has ever been at 3.49 USD/EUR. If you enjoy eerie vibes, experimental storytelling and games that have something to say, you might want to give it a try. Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3948890/... Itch: jantunes.itch.io/employee925

Last week I had the pleasure to talk with Level Up Stories about Employee 925, indie vs AAA and a bit of my development philosophy. You can listen to the episode in the link below and be sure to follow for the next episodes. open.spotify.com/episode/5IV0...

"THIS IS FINE" addresses the normalization of emotional performance during periods of collective harm. The subject is not the events themselves, but the obligation to appear unaffected by them. Made for GGJ26. Play: jantunes.itch.io/this-is-fine #gamedev #ggj #art

I guess I am doing this Global Game Jam thing #GGJ #gamedev
