I don't directly advertise it nearly often enough, but Louny Balloony is, in fact, an actual game with a demo currently available on Steam! It's a unique side-scrolling platformer where you travel across different landscapes while using balloons to fly! #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart

Hidden Dinosaur is taking part of this year's Steam Scream fest! In fact, it is THE #1 TOP DEMO of Hidden Object games involving dinosaurs, so if that turns you on I highly suggest giving it a play for the screamy season! #gamedev #indiedev

Been getting a lot more immediate responses like this to my self promo tweets on the other site. I'm, like, 99.99% sure this is generated content designed to be reactive by asking a question at the end of the reply, but I find the idea funny that horror and humor are totally unrelated concepts.

Even though it's a horror game, Hidden Dinosaur isn't afraid to make a joke once in a while #gamedev #indiedev #pixleart
