Was happy to pick up this large Gustave Dore tome for a tenner from an Oxfam. A 1:1 reproduction of the 1872 Dore illustrated original - “London. A Pilgrimage.” In which Dore travelled to London to sketch a snap shot of the life of the city. I own a few 1st editions and this is not a bad reprint.

Many of the bank's main corridors have bulldog and watchdog security devices, but there's plenty of side rooms and nooks to duck into and hide. #gloomwood

Enjoying Val'ty? No? Fine. But If you're liking it, consider writing a review, recommending it, and/or sharing this post as well. 🧠 No Gen AI. 🙏 Available in Steam Next Fest. I hope I can return to work on it soon. And remember, Get Val'ted! 🇧🇷 store.steampowered.com/app/3860970/...

I usually check out as many games as possible in Next Fest, but the tidal wave of AI trash has beaten me Non-AI indie devs please post your games below and I'll check em out instead Also @steampowered.com PLEASE add an option to filter out AI games in searches. It's killing discoverability #gaming

In 2016, we published potentially the largest single feature to ever appear in Game Informer magazine with a full oral history of the legendary studio, BioWare. We've made that feature available online following reports of the studio's impending closure. gameinformer.com/feature/2026...

"A game about the joy of designing ships, and nothing else." Okay, I lied. But anyone paying attention knows I've been popping turrets from ships I designed since 2018... Now it's your turn. The multiplayer playtest kicks off next week. Join via player.gg/explore/game... #shipshaper #indiedev

It’s not even like they’re copying a successful model, they’re just inventing a terrible new one

Realms of The Haunting was ahead of its time when it released in 1996. A unique blend of first person shooter and classic point and click adventure puzzles it had an amazing horror atmosphere. Perfect for Spookctober! #DOSgaming #retrogaming

The yards behind buildings, York city centre are rarely seen but some shops have upper rooms that give a glimpse of them. The cramped yards had outbuildings for vital functions, like toilets, wash houses & coal houses. #ArchitrcturalIllustration #pen #drawing #ArtShare

"The Well of Souls plunges into the ancient aqueduct". I'm currently playtesting again through Catacomb Abyss, in preparation for a big update of the source port. Enjoying the scenery.

Don't let billionaires convince you slop is the future. They're used to managing & directing, not making things themselves. Of course they can't see the difference. They don't understand your love for the craft. Keep making personal, beautiful games. You've got my support 💖
