September felt so short, but time flies when you're having fun. Here are the 10 puzzle game demos I found most interesting, starting with... 🏞️🌙↔️

#3.- Dreadline Express [investigation/cards] by @dlaha.bsky.social. Explore a train (at the end of the world?), find cards, ask questions or perform actions using those cards, and even make new questions/actions by combining them. Find some gameplay here 👇 youtu.be/vdvhWC-JsUw

#2.- Fatemender [multigenre(!)] by @wtchcrft.com. This one's a lot and all pretty well mashed. Mainly, you manage resources to build a path over a grid using cards, with VN style story, but there's also much more. Try it! Find some gameplay here 👇 youtu.be/2y2-J-fkz7k

#1.- Night Hike [roguelike/knowledge based] by @mneumanngames.bsky.social. Build a trail (on a grid), 1 tile at a time, and with each one you'll find some -one or -thing of which you need to make sense. You may reset, but you carry over the knowledge. Find some gameplay here 👇 youtu.be/ZlbsY64TT9I

I have been informed that I could have said "blends to our will" and that is infinitely funnier and now I must retire from jokes thanks @wtchcrft.com

While a few more hours remain for our first ever Demo Days event, I want to thank every single one of the devs and publishers who took part in it! I hope that the week was beneficial to you for visibility and signal pointing towards the future of indies! Thank you for what you do! 💙

Been a while since I've written a blog post! There's just too much going on in the summer. Now it's fall and I can enter game dev goblin mode. www.kymira.ca/blog/summer-...

Given how unpredictable social media sites can be we have launched a newsletter! That way as more sites fall apart to capitalism we can stay in touch. Sign up on our website: wtchcrft.com

Another cool encounter from #qgcon was meeting Zoey and learning about her podcast @trueavatars.bsky.social ! She interviewed me about Love in the Time of Spellphage for the conference episode which is out now!

Our first public studio event! Met a lot of cool folk, played some cool games, and crashed hard after from all the socializing. Rare for us to leave our witch hut.

NEXT WEEKEND! We'll be at @qgcon.bsky.social demo-ing Love in the Time of Spellphage, our alternative magical Montreal pandemic story 🔮 Come by and chat, we'll have stickers 🌟
