We just showed our Gameplay Reveal trailer for Impermanence at The Mix Fall Online Showcase! youtu.be/kZojSDRpjzU Immensely proud of the team, and we have a lot more on the way! And of course, wishlist on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4703890/... @badchoicesstudio.bsky.social
Read more about the development process and how we're going into playtesting here: store.steampowered.com/news/app/470...
First gameplay reveal, and showing how we dive into the psych horror aspect. This'll be fun!
At first, all you want is one more conversation. One more memory. One more chance to hear his voice. Then the lights start flickering. The memories begin to change. And something in the theatre starts pushing back. See you at @themix.bsky.social Fall Showcase, October 16
I hate all of it. How much does your life suck if you want *every piece of entertainment you consume* to somehow be personalized exclusively to you. Every song you listen to, about you and your life. Every movie, every video game, every book (who am I kidding these folks don't read)
maybe i'm old fashion but the coolest thing about video games is being taken to new worlds that i hadn't thought up and experiencing something exciting that the artists behind the game want to show me

Another day, another email that sends me and the team into a frenzy . <3 @badchoicesstudio.bsky.social @duckosaurus.bsky.social
Struggling a bit through a WIP puzzle in my own game was more nerve wracking than streaming The Division to 7k viewers back in the day 😅
We're live with about 20minutes of Work-In-Progress gameplay and answering some questions you might have. Thanks to the folks @telltalegames.bsky.social for including us in their Choices Matter festival! store.steampowered.com/news/app/470...

We'll be joining @telltalegames.bsky.social Choices Matter Festival with a special developer update on Impermanence. We'll share our journey so far, show some work-in-progress, and answer a few of your questions. Have something you'd like to ask? Leave it below before we record on Friday.
I'm not saying the universe is sending signs, but I was listening intently for alien garble. #ImpermanenceGame @badchoicesstudio.bsky.social

IMPERMANENCE has been revealed. Announced during @futuregamesshow.bsky.social Summer Showcase 2026, our debut teaser takes you into the abandoned Orpheum theatre, where a grieving scientist attempts to reconstruct his son’s spirit through sound. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTjd...
I've been loving seeing @deerandboy.com game. #InTheDrift game also looks very nice.

Haha, Marvel's Tokon really said "we're on after @insomniac.games ? Bet. Let's absolutely annihilate Spider-Man" #stateofplay @playstation.com
I had a blast helping the team at Ducko get to this point! It'd be fantastic if you could support this small Belgian outfit with a purchase 🐥 youtu.be/d-NBkjMTpGU?...

I expected better from @bsky.app @safety.bsky.app @moderation.bsky.app
@bsky.app is flagging @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social as spam for making a game about Palestine... Who is next will be flagged as spam for creating a game next? @ramiismail.com? or @castpixel.bsky.social?

Here we go, something I've been drafting for a long, long time: how the US-centric approach to video games and their history / culture basically gaslights us who come from other realities: felipepepe.medium.com/the-gentrifi... AKA, why LAN Houses, PokéTibia & Bomba Patch rule.
My cyberpunk novel Lonely Nights on High Rooftops is part of the Indie Book Sale! 🖤 If you're into gritty sci-fi, AI, and grief-driven revenge stories — now’s the time $0.99 until April 13 🔗 books2read.com/lonelynights... + indiebook.sale #IndieApril #NarratessIndieSale #BookSky 💙📚🪐 #Cyberpunk
I just found out that DUST has a short film on @qntm.org 's 'There is no Antimemetics Division'! www.youtube.com/watch?v=3v8A... I loved the book, and the short does a great job at setting up the intro. Highly recommended!
I love how absolutely weird everything in @marathonthegame.bungie.net is. I'm not a fan of extraction shooters generally, but getting to experience the story is making me come back to it.

All they needed to do, was make Skate 4. $60, boxed product, full experience. Ship it, and leave it. But they chose to go down the live-service route.
The developer behind EA’s rebooted Skate game, Full Circle, has confirmed a round of layoffs, following mixed reactions to its Early Access launch. vgc.news/news/eas-ska...
If you enjoyed Lonely Nights on High Rooftops (or this kind of quiet, unsettling sci-fi), it might be up your alley. Get the free short story here: subscribepage.io/reaching-out
Small indie-author win: while setting things up for @pagebound.bsky.social I noticed Lonely Nights on High Rooftops reached 10 ratings on @goodreads.com 🖤 I’ve dropped the price too — so if you’re looking for a gritty cyberpunk revenge story 👀 💙📚🪐 #indieauthor #readersky #cyberpunk
Finishing up documentation for my Game Project, the time has come to dive back into the manuscript I wrote for the follow-up to Lonely Nights. Tackling cycles of violence, budding resistance, and of course, the crippling weight of profits over people. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_T3j...
Pretty sure I've finalized my slides for my first-ever public talk on video games marketing. I'll be presenting it at buff.pxl.be It's a talk designed to transfer my MarComms experience and knowledge I've gained in AAA to Indie game devs.
With creating a game, I'm finding inspiration in a lot of places. Today I stumbled onto Visual Synths, and I'm mindblown. www.instagram.com/reel/DE2MgRH... Look at this! I love everything about this.
Look at art like this www.instagram.com/reel/DSQEOHp... Thats from @klsrav.bsky.social
