I just released a side project I've been working for the last weeks! πͺπ§΅πΆ
Solar System String Sequencer, a playful music instrument made to explore the musicality of our solar system through the sonification of its planets and their orbits.
You can play it right now on itch at fonserbc.itch.io/ssss
Any fans of Lovecraft/Cthulhu Mythos stories? Need recommendations of some with striking visuals for illustrations
(I also remember reading a few I can't find now...)

Me, in clown make-up and a red nose, pigtail braids, a tiara and a Black Swan style ballet outfit. I am smiling open mouthed with amazement at the audience. Behind me on a projection screen is a picture of a smiling face in a top hat and the caption "Laughing Cavalier"
Had an amazing time as a ballerina at Lost Cabaret in Bristol π
I get the audience to draw pictures on their phones and come up with a dance inspired by each one. Not pictured: me rolling on the floor pretending to be an orange π
Oh I thought it was a crowdfunding campaign for a second!
My game curation project @exhibitplay.com received its first supporter! This will go towards a fund for commissioning written pieces and original micro games based on one of the current lists. A call for pitches will happen soon. If you have the means, you can support the project on buymeacoffee.
It's time for our monthly roundup! Here we recap our articles on the seasons, with pieces on Harvest Moon, Persona 4 and Animal Crossing.
There's also recommended reading on the seasons theme, and a selection of our favourite community comments from this month. βοΈ

Check out this wonderful collection of game poems! I helped out as one of many first readers, reviewing a lot of submissions. So many incredibly projects that explored the poetic potential of games really well. The final selection has a wide range of thought provoking, and visually unique games.

Though sad and uncomfortable, winter - and death - are often necessary to prevent game worlds from feeling stagnant.
In our first article on Seasons, @hollynielsen.bsky.social explores how winter provides vital friction in the Harvest Moon series:

I was gonna say, I love the HM art! All the cover art for the posts have been looking great, too!
Tumblr post by and-fishing-equipment reading "in 2026 DO NOT ask yourself whether your art is GOOD instead ask: - Is it SINCERE - is it CATHARTIC - was it FUN TO MAKE - is it MADE BY ME and don't forget to stay silly"
Cookoo year in summary. (no paywall, just bloggin)

My GOTY is the fan hack of Chrono Trigger. The translation is noticeably much better, they balanced the tech system, and I think added new story content (haven't finished yet).
Now I wanna play balanced/boosted mods of all the classics!
Really wanna play that!
My GOTY this year is Magic Garden :)
I pick a GOTY based on what I've discovered this year, not what came out this year, and UFO 50 has been an absolute gem. Still only tried about a third of the games!
Shared some end of the year reflections. Check it out!
My game is 99 US cents (80% off)

I've been doing monster making workshops for a while, where we play a bunch of games and imagine, draw and embody new monsters.
I always wanted to exhibit the drawings in some special way, and finally got to try it as an installation called "Portal to Monster World"

If we don't know each other yet, I made a game called Monster Garden (store.steampowered.com/app/719660/M...) that was shown at @playtopia.bsky.social in 2018 but this will be my first time there!
I also made a deck of cards based on the game that I use for a playful collaborative divination game!
Howdy! Do I know anyone who will be at @playtopia.bsky.social in Cape Town next month?
I made a "portal to monster world" at an artist residency and wrote a little about it.
