I can't believe how few people are playing Echo Weaver. If you liked Outer Wilds, you need to check this game out!!! store.steampowered.com/app/2184080/...

Two under-the-radar video games that I have really enjoyed recently: - Echo Weaver: a "metroidbrainia" inspired by Outer Wilds - Valor Mortis: a first-person soulslike set in the Zombie Napoleonic Wars store.steampowered.com/app/2184080/... store.steampowered.com/app/2828710/...

🕯️MY GAME COMES OUT TOMORROW!! 🕯️ If you want to help me, the best way is to buy the game and review it on Steam as close to 5AM Pacific or 8AM Eastern as possible. The algo lords do a special thing at 10 reviews, as many of you know : ) store.steampowered.com/app/2105840/...

🕯️ANNOUNCEMENT🕯️ My game Order Automatica has a release date: September 4th, 2026 We are doing a simultaneous release on Steam, GOG, Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox, iOS, and Android 😅 New demo up on Steam right now : )

How do elevators work? We have no idea, but this week's design dive shows some of the details that make elevators feel like elevators in our game. #gamedesign #steam #indiegame #indiedev

We shared some of our reasoning for keeping generative AI out of our creative process with @aftermath.site. Respecting our players' time and attention is at the core of everything we do. If something isn't worth our time to make, it's not worth our players' time to engage with it.

Blood Dungeon launches August 25th on Steam, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 1 + 2! Blooddungeon.com #boneup

we've been using Clawed Code for years but we double checked and Steam still does NOT require a disclosure #indiegames #gamedev

Just booked a session to go play. Can't wait! Seems like they really went all-out!

Our game has lots of puzzles and interactive environments. But when players are constantly exploring for clues, those interactions can become red herrings - so we made them into a feature! #gaming #indiegames #gamedev

Ben was awesome to work with on this in so many ways! His willingness to just riff and try out silly stuff while recording made the process really fun and added a LOT to the final trailer. Super grateful for all his help and excellent work

Y’all, don’t sleep on Echo Weaver during Next Fest. SO many good “aha!” moments. It’s super rad store.steampowered.com/app/3062420/...

WOW! Quite the compliment! We had such a great time watching these folks play at Play Days. Always fun to see people laughing together while playing the game

an opportunity to stab your fingers* and tell us what you think! *virtual fingers

We take player input very seriously

We’ve been having a blast cramming little jokes and details into the game. These are just a taste of what you can find in the trailer alone!

"It is the most fun, most dumb game I've played in a very long time." - Couldn't ask for higher praise!

This is SO up my alley. Cannot wait to play!

Hard to top giant cat butt slapping, but it was still an excellent GDC! Caught up with some old friends, made some new ones. Doesn’t get much better

Gonna be hard to top this gem from GDC last year, but a man can hope

Looking forward to seeing everyone at GDC next week!

🧵 Big Hops Sewer Exit Level Design Deep Dive Thread 🧵 Inspired by @radiatoryang.bsky.social's excellent Big Hops level design blog post and encouraged by Chris @luckshotgames.com, here's a thread where I dove back through the commits to look at our iterations on a single level in Big Hops.

This year was an excellent GDC in so many ways, but the best part was we got to have the whole Turbo Button team in the same place for the first time ever! Such a fun group to hang out with. I’m so grateful to be a part of it

Suddenly less thirsty

GDC here we go! First time back in awhile. Hit me up if you wanna hang

We're all just out here trying our best

When I first entered this industry, anything over 3 years at the same company was unimaginable. Now looking back at the last 10, I can't believe it's gone so quickly! @holdenlink.bsky.social and I are so grateful to everyone we've worked with, and are stoked for the next decade of Turbo Button

We worked with some of our favorite folks to create artist-generated AI spoof cards to ring in the holiday season. Hapy holipy merry, everyone!
