Kat WISHLIST CRYPTIDCAM Mothman

The full version of CryptidCam will be releasing on Steam next month! You'll be able to seek out beloved cryptid friends like Mothman, Bigfoot, and more to take cute pictures of them. Until then, you can still check out my demo. Please look forward to it! tinyurl.com/CryptidCam #indiegame #gamedemo

my goal was to get 1000 wishlists from steam next fest... and i fell short by two 😭 clearly i didn't post hard enough 😔💔

Remember the 90s Schwarzenegger movie Eraser? Or the Charlie Sheen alien conspiracy thriller The Arrival? Or Keanu as Johnny Mnemonic? Well all three of these received FMV adventure games that CRUSHED MY ENTIRE SOUL IN UNIQUE AND HELLISH WAYS. My suffering distilled into 90 minutes, just for you:

Tonight's a special charity stream so all shares help a ton! We're joining the fundraiser for Trans Lifeline tonight from 5pm-11pm GMT Kicking off with nextfest demos, then Shadow of War until 9pm where we try out the adorable CryptidCam by @katmothman.bsky.social! Follow @ www.twitch.tv/iggymaid

Here are my favorite demos from this Next Fest! Really nice games. 💌 Come to my Party by @simsangy8n.bsky.social 💿 Mr. Records by @mrrecords.bsky.social 💦 Muri: Widlwoods by @speldosagames.bsky.social 🖥️ Home Paige by @minimin.net

at this point i have pretty good evidence to support the idea that people generally like my video game. but as launch day approaches it does get hard not to think "what if everyone hates my video game?". because what if everyone hates my video game

can you feel the (mario) sunshine 🏖

The current edition of Steam's #NextFest is still going strong until Monday, and in this thread you can find out what I've been playing. I'll be writing some thoughts on some of these demo's down in an article for @somanygames.co.uk soon as well, but for now, take a look and wishlist these games 1/∞

Hi there #indiedevs ! I'll be doing some coverage of Steam's upcoming #NextFest for @somanygames.co.uk but it looks like Valve has allowed so much slop in there, especially of the AI "created" kind. Did you make your #indiegame by yourself or with an all human team? Share it in the comments and 1/2

You've seen fireworks that look like jellyfish, but what about a jellyfish that looks like fireworks? The E/V Nautilus filmed this rare Halitrephes maasi jellyfish glowing like a firework at a depth of 4,019 feet (1,225 meters) off the coast of Baja California, Mexico. (📷: Ocean Exploration Trust)

Hey folks, found a copy of CryptidCam in my inbox, and although I am far, far too busy and overwhelmed to accept, I absolutely want to give a shout-out because this looks adorable and there's a demo to try. Go have a look!
