All fire picks 🔥

I recently came across something new: adding a “no AI” label to a game’s Steam capsule image.

It took way too long to respond to something with oops my bad.

With only a few a few months left of 2026. What indie games set to release this year are you most excited for?

it is very sensible to make good decisions

Is WOIM a part of the extended Bad Magpie Birdiverse?

Filtering through the AI slop has been interesting this latest Steam Next Fest. Here are 10+ game demos I think believe you NEED to play! goodgamelobby.substack.com/p/steam-next...

Unfortunately, it’s on every major outlet. Vertical Slice has already been a breath of fresh air.

#RogueWaves got mentioned on @goodgamelobby.com substack! 😁🏄 Such an honour to be along cool new demos.

The Ocarina of Crime is S Tier.

HAHA Thank You Bus Driver is so good. The satisfaction of slapping bad passengers is brilliant. My father was a bus driver. He would have smacked the heck out of these weirdos. XD

Here is an example of the bonkers emails I get daily.

Seeing the photos of people receiving @continuemag.bsky.social is rearranging my brain. For so long it was just something that lived in my head and on the screen. Now it's real and physical and people are reading it. 🥹

I found my favorite game of the show: Murals! It was also fantastic to see Mutter, which I played at Gamescom, during the showcase. Great showcase! @cozyafterdarkshow.bsky.social

Watch your head! There's a bad magpie around these parts 🐦‍⬛ @lucyjames.games will have a chinwag with developers @milktooth.bsky.social about the very chaotic bird headlining their game 🎤 The Duality of Comedy and Sadness in Bad Magpie 🕐 1PM PT 🚶 bit.ly/LNCTheatreTab

I think one of my favorite parts of these showcases was watching with my son become inspired by the design work. He would run away from the video draw something then watch more over and over. ❤️

I found a handful of games to wishlist from the @iii-initiative.bsky.social showcase last night. Check them out! goodgamelobby.substack.com/p/friday-fol...
