If you feel like playing cozy games with a strong narrative and a female protagonist, you might want to check the bundle we created with @glowfroggames.bsky.social @katekillick.bsky.social 💖
Both games were released last week and are on sale atm!

Almost forgot!
At the museum there was also the death mask of one of the core characters: Mère Angélique Arnauld.
When will I ever witness the death mask of a character I have written!
Thank you! We need to catch up at some point soon! Or Amaze if you're coming this year!
My historical gardening game is out on Steam!
If you're feeling for spy plots, queer romance, discovering plants and caring for real plants, you can now join the Abbey and embody Agnès! 🌿

It's absurd to spend a year writing things to then find yourself where it takes place on release day.
Thanks @edwigelel.bsky.social for the opportunity!
Today we release a game.
This is the real chestnut tree where the main characters fall in love.
And this is the real Abbey where the whole thing takes place.
The last picture is the king that dies in it.
Wishlists are ok, buying better, reviews even better.

Will be in Tokyo from next week.
Suggestions? Considerations? People that happen to be there and want to hang?
Marigold's out of the bag: release in March.
Now I better go finish these dialogues.
An image for a word clouds of "most used words" on my BlueSky. The most used word is "Shit", followed by elysium, kebab, games, build, open, disco, showcase and care
Shit
Horses' only sin is that its broad themes don't entirely pay off its loaded imagery. Otherwise, it's an effectively uncomfortable games that turns life's mundane humiliations into surreal horror. If anything, its bans fill in its thematic gaps for it. My review. www.polygon.com/horses-banne...
Friend made this. Tried early build, kept me up all night.
If you like Lynch and expressionist cinema, play this.
Santaragione are also good eggs and for this to have happened is pretty shit.
Can pre-order here: www.gog.com/en/game/horses
throw chicken bones to randomly select one!
C'est toujours un plaisir de participer à l'écriture de ce jeu et de lire les supers dialogues de mon collègue @gioborrows.bsky.social ❤️
En plus avec les nouveaux chapitres c'est la saison des fleurs et des premiers amours
I'm still desperately grasping to the hope that it doesn't have to be that way. That if I don't care for endless growth or anything more then living fairly, I can stick with small, local and niche events, and do my little weird games and let them speak for themselves
I shall be coming to Adventure X btw... If I'm allowed back in the country.
We got that ticket
We got a demo!
We have an open beta!
Indie Assemble promotion background with The Abbess Garden capsule image on top, featuring the abbey, the garden, the forest, and Agnes, the main character :)
Very happy to announce that The Abbess Garden will be part of Indie Assemble (store.steampowered.com/curator/4471...): a large Steam festival with a lot of hidden gems you probably never saw before (I know about max 5% ^^)

New devlog on Steam for The Abbess Garden :) store.steampowered.com/news/app/341... Talking a bit about what we are up to recently! :)

Key art of The Abbess Garden (cozy and historical gardening game). There is a green landscape with flowers and abbey at the center. On the right, a young woman dressed as a 17th century peasant. She is Agnès, the main character.
Hey :) I am working on my content creators list for The Abbess Garden's demo (in June 😳). If you are an interested streamer, please LMK! If you are a #cozy gamer, ideas are welcome too :) #indiedev if you could recommend someone you liked working with, it would be fab :)

Can only get one if agreeing to the other.

Probably not helping. But just discovered 3 euros kebab/falafel (that's actually good!) on the way to my new place from the station.
So... no! It's not asking too much! Around stations is the one place that should have good kebab!
In less than 2 weeks, we got more than 1000 wishlists for The Abbess Garden 🎉
We are extremely grateful! We did it notably thanks to @dames4games.org's showcase and @wingsfund.me's Women's day sale 💖
Next step: closed beta!

I'm still partial to deRPG (pronounced der-P-G).
But Delysiums is good. Really good
Disco Elysium-like
DElysium-like
deRPGs
Has anybody made a spreadsheet of spiritual successors of Disco Elysium yet?
Ah! My dialogues. Here's hoping I didn't miss no typo
