Dead Idle Games

This book is rewiring my brain.

"And what of the dead? They lie without shoes
in their stone boats. They are more like stone
than the sea would be if it stopped. They refuse
to be blessed, throat, eye and knucklebone."

(Anne Sexton)

Post a p̶i̶c̶ video you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed.

Our game is not a rogueli[k|t]e, a metroidvania, a cozy job simulator, a deckbuilder, or any sort of townbuilder. Not even a Golden Idol-like, despite the clue board.

It's not on Next Fest either, for that matter 😅

It's just us doing our thing and seeing what comes out of it.

Haha, I've never seen one of those in the wild, I don't even think we have them in Spain. The REAL universal Southern European coffee experience is having several of these at home in different sizes:

No, that's wrong. Cortado should be like 1 or 2 blocks at MOST, like the Italian caffé macchiato. Unfortunately, many bars in Madrid started equating "cortado" with "small café con leche" years ago and it's spread like wildfire. But I'll always be a cortado purist (shakes fist at clouds).

I did not need to be reminded of this! I'm trying to lose weight!

If you liked this, you'll enjoy his later work, either The Sunken Land Begins to Rise Again or You Should Come With Me Now (short stories and mood pieces).

Going further back, Viriconium is an absolute masterpiece, and this is coming from someone who doesn't care for fantasy at all.

Was. He put his social media accounts on hiatus and closed comments on his blog while he works on some new stuff.

Part of my ongoing crusade to get people to read M John Harrison because holy shit.

Amazing haul at the Taschen sale yesterday! Doomscrolling is passé; lazing on the couch flipping through glossy 5kg doorstoppers while smoking opium is the new cool.

Aaaaanda, no sabía que eran TODOS de Usborne originalmente. A estas alturas!

En concreto me refiero a estos, no sé si habría otros...

Maravillosos. Estos, los de Usborne de monstruos y fantasmas, y los de manualidades en plan "haz un dragón con tubos de papel higiénico" que siempre acababa pareciendo una gallina atropellada, pero y lo bien que te lo pasabas.

Postmodern Adventures goes Lovecraft! It's only February and this is already one of the best adventures that you're going to see this year. Mark my words.

Not on If On A Winter's Night Four Travelers, (top two screenshots), but we started using them for the game we're working on right now (bottom two screenshots) mostly because Thomas wanted to move away from a strict isometric perspective and try out new angles (literally). So far so good, I'd say!
