Survive-ish just landed on CrazyGames. A+ means you beat the clock. Spotless means you never died once. PERFECT means both, and you are not getting it on your first run. Go prove us wrong: www.crazygames.com/game/survive...

Day 4 of Cubix, and this puzzle is reminding me of the Pokemon ice puzzles. See any other influences? #cubixelements #videogames #mobilegames #itchgames

Day 3 of Cubix! These puzzles are definitely getting tougher. This one took some work, and hitting that 100% won’t be easy. Currently at 18/35 puzzles on the desert level. 🌵 #IndieGameDev #PuzzleGame

Meet our village cook! She will teach players how to prepare a variety of recipes. Always ready with a smile and a story, she welcomes everyone as if they were family, though, there are shadows in her past she rarely speaks of... #gamedev #indiedev #gameart

'Gambit' will be a risky card with high upside. Let’s just hope the dice and our hands come back in one piece. Art by Tuesday: @tyr-ghost.bsky.social & Zoe: zo_artxx on Instagram #gamedev #indiedev #gameart

Back to Cubix Elements! Day 1 of solving puzzles begins. #indiedev #itchgames #puzzlechallenge #gamedev

Reframe Games will be at #gamescom this weekend! We're looking forward to talking to players, publishers and fellow developers. Feel free to DM Jeff Mundee or Chad Comeau on LinkedIn to set up a time to meet during the show!

One of the many cards in our game in progress. This one’s all about focus… and maybe a little intimidation. Art by Tuesday: @tyr-ghost.bsky.social & Zoe: zo_artxx on Instagram #gamedev #indiedev #gameart

A menacing fog spider, what could be more terrifying? #gamedev #indiedev #gameart #blender3d Art by Jake: www.instagram.com/jacobparleea...

You have my axe. You have my bow. …And my halberd?” Here’s some cool weapon art from our game! Each weapon unlocks its own unique cards to add to your deck. Art done by Tyler: tylerleblanc.artstation.com #GameArt #IndieGames #GameDev

Here's the studious Alcid as a game piece! Still in progress, just like his spell. Art by @puppermations.bsky.social #blender3d #characterdesign #indiedev #gamedev

Meet Alcid — quiet, perceptive, and burdened by more than he lets on. An introvert with big ambitions, Alcid dreams of becoming a fire keeper and mastering clairvoyance, but behind his intelligence lies deep uncertainty. 🎨 Art by Abigail #GameDev #IndieDev #CharacterDesign

The Elder has 120 years of wisdom, a few pranks up his sleeve, and maybe a skill or two to pass on—if you can help jog his memory. Art by Abigail: www.artstation.com/abigailmelan... #gamedev #indiedev #gameart #screenshotsaturday

Meet Zelphie, your ever-loyal squire and one of your very first companions on this journey. She/they will be by your side as you learn the ropes—curious, cautious, and brimming with heart. 🎨 Art by Abigail — check out more of their work: www.artstation.com/abigailmelan... #indiedev #art #gamedev

Fog monsters are always working against you—and their color hints at how tough they’ll be. Their movements are predictable, but sometimes, fighting them is unavoidable. #godot #indiedev #gamedev

Combat’s heating up. Spot any inspirations in our prototype? (Here’s a hint: you’ll be drawing a hand of cards from your own deck each round.) #IndieDev #GameDesign #TurnBased

Here's a quick look at our tile manipulation mechanic, which will allow you to shift, rotate, and realign the world to uncover what lies beyond the fog. #godot #indiedev #gamedev

The Flame Bearer is a player-controlled character in our upcoming game, venturing into the Fog each day—clearing paths, gathering resources, and bringing light to what remains. Artwork by students of McKenzie College, Moncton. #gamedev #art #indiedev

As a player, your greatest challenge will be the Fog. Your survival will depend on your ability to understand and ultimately, to master it. By day, the Fog swells and recedes - but what is stopping it from consuming the whole land? #indiedev #godot #gamedev

We’ve been quietly building something new. Here’s a small peek at the hexagonal world taking shape — but beware the fog... Join us on Discord for more updates: discord.com/invite/qGF7G... #Gamedev #Indiedev #Roguelike
