During PAX AUS, @firkraags.bsky.social decided to head across the ditch to see what our Kiwi brethren had to offer.
When we say across the ditch, we really mean the NZ/Aotearoa Booth on the show floor.

AAAAAA both Night Plane by @liquidstatic.bsky.social and The Mailroom by @jotson.bsky.social came out today MY POOR WALLET!!!
If the demos have anything to say, these are both incredibly fun games and I'm excited to try them. YOU SHOULD TOO!
An indie dev has made a job-sim horror game set on a doomed flight.
- Check tickets and keep the passengers happy
- Shape-shifters are trying to board as passengers
- Management says removing them is your problem
This is Night Plane and it's out today, would you play this?

Reason #99 why it's a GREAT idea to cameo as an NPC in your own game: When they randomly ruin your trailer shot, you have no one to get mad at but yourself ๐

Night Plane by @liquidstatic.bsky.social is a thrilling airborne hospitality simulator that costs way less than a plane ticket! Board passengers, assist with their struggles, and resolve emergencies. Also, please don't let the psychopomp fly the aircraft.
Scaling from the basics of using the Niagara system in Unreal Engine, tips for creating more dynamic VFX, and useful optimization tools, @pedroklein.bsky.social will give a welcoming introduction for developers new to using Niagara and provide deeper insights for those already familiar with it.
NIGHT PLANE will be at SXSW Sydney in October! ๐ฑโ๏ธ๐ฅ

As transit enthusiasts ourselves, we were so excited by NIGHT BUS from Liquid Static, a game which captures the quintessential Wellington experience of getting lost as hell on a windy street and doing your best to ignore the Thing with No Eyes. We've all been there.
