Cannot express what a wild day it was to release Slay the Spire 2. So excited to see folks finally playing and so lucky to have gotten to work with the seriously talented and lovely people that made up the dev team 💜
Will this be the biggest Godot game release to date?

Slay the Spire 2's concurrent Steam players just hit 179,456, the highest ever for any roguelike.
When StS1 first launched back in 2017, it had 193 concurrent players.
That's a 92,982% increase, meaning StS3 is on track to hit 166,861,777 concurrent players by 2035. 💪

I've been pushing to get Order Automatica ready for Steam Next Fest. I'm going to try posting about it a bit more to get some practice talking about it.
Why is this game special? I really tried to do something weird and different with auto battlers - something emergent, with physicality.

"Best Soulslike Roguelike: Elden Ring Nightreign"
Jose / @josepacio.bsky.social's pick: Elden Ring Nightreign 🌙
"The idea of a Dark Souls roguelike with the Fortnite circle had me a bit skeptical. But somehow this weird set of ideas comes together into something special. I’ve had a great time playing with (getting carried by) my friends."
A NEW SLAYER HAS APPEARED ⚔️✨
Bow down to The Regent, Slay the Spire 2's second new playable character.
Heir to the Throne of Stars, he is a domineering and arrogant alien being who draws on the power of the cosmos and his long-suffering minions to do his bidding.

If you're curious, you can check out the work for Web C# builds here:
godotengine.org/article/live...
The major breakthrough with this update is that I was able to web build for Godot C#! This is something that hasn't been possible in Godot 4.0 (and still isn't in the official release), but its thanks to the work of Raul Santos and some of the other folks on the Godot github that made this possible!
As a Halloween treat I released and update to my little tetris roguelike, Draftula! It's got new art, tons of new content, and most importantly, a build you can play in your browser!

October is almost over and I 3D learned my way into making a game (though It's actually 50% billboarded 2D sprites)
Set sail on a voyage full of pirates, dark magic, and the thrill of discovery! Draco and the Seven Scales is an action-adventure RPG that harkens back to an age of top down adventures and lovable pixel art.

Once protectors, now you are the Slayers.
A new expansion to Slay the Spire: The Board Game is coming from @contentiongames.bsky.social, based on the iconic community mod Downfall, which sees you take on the role of classic Spire enemies!

Cover art for This Be Mutiny. Below the title, two people are fighting on the deck of a ship. A grinning woman in an oversized pirate's coat and hat is leaping with rapier in hand towards her opponent, a scarred man in a jinbei robe. He defends against her with dual daggers, scowling.
⚔️ The indie studio I work at dropped a silly lil' pirate game! ⚔️
It's a turn-based strategy game about pirates who keep backstabbing each other.
There's treasure and several playable characters and it features my art. Find it on Steam, and fair winds to ye! ⛵
THIS BE MUTINY is a game about swashbuckling pirates are on an epic treasure hunt! Until it inevitably devolves into mutiny. But if you can survive the backstabbings and betrayals, the treasure will be all yours!!!
