I usually check out as many games as possible in Next Fest, but the tidal wave of AI trash has beaten me Non-AI indie devs please post your games below and I'll check em out instead Also @steampowered.com PLEASE add an option to filter out AI games in searches. It's killing discoverability #gaming

Don't let billionaires convince you slop is the future. They're used to managing & directing, not making things themselves. Of course they can't see the difference. They don't understand your love for the craft. Keep making personal, beautiful games. You've got my support ๐Ÿ’–

We just popped some new events on the calendar, including this year's SPOOKY GAMES MARATHON at Black Water Bar the evening of Tuesday, October 27th! Come see some really scary stuff and play games from locals & other indies! ๐ŸŽƒ๐ŸŽƒ๐ŸŽƒ pigsquad.com/events-list/...

If you're looking for something particularly strange this October to play-ย might I recommend The House Before demo. We played this together, and now Scott really wants to be a house.

I have a release date for The House Before - November 3 It's a visual novel with puzzles about being a strange House inhabited by monsters. I've been working on this game for 5 years, so wishlists and shares would really mean the world! shorturl.at/WdvaK #wishlistwednesday #indiegames #gamedev

Yet again, the Game UI Database is being scraped to the point that it's getting knocked offline. Even Cloudflare's "I'm under attack" mode isn't working. I just wanted to create a resource for real designers. I'm getting so fucking sick of this.

A pretty good essay that runs through a bunch of the typing horror games to come out in recent years.

Jack Ververis@jverv.bsky.social

New video! "Typing horror" sounds like a joke, a subgenre of a subgenre. So why do these games keep coming out -- and keep being so good?

Delighted to hear my youngest (13) confess that @skullthug.bsky.social 's Dead Letter Dept genuinely scared her and it's only now, 18 months on, that she's considering a replay. I reminded her of a couple of the best early bits ๐Ÿ˜ˆ Gonna be a nice spooky season replay. Lights off, sound up...

Silent Hill, you get one flesh-colored humanoid enemy type design per game. Preferably none, but you are limited to ONE

Astrophotographer Adam (AJ) Smadi caught this image a few hours ago from Washington state. A thin crescent Moon, sunlight illuminating the rugged lunar surface. And 2,400 times farther awayโ€”and on the other side of the Sunโ€”mighty Jupiter, and its moons Io (left) and Ganymede (right).

Take a break from being depressed that everything you love is being destroyed by slop for a moment and let me tell you about the beautiful symbiotic relationship between graffiti writers, train yard workers, and model train enthusiasts.
