A screenshot of a pixelart RPG displaying a dialogue between 2 characters. A pale man with slick black hair and horns called Lazaar is smiling smugly: "You should really work on your self-control. Would be a shame if we had to talk about a regime change, wouldn't it?"

Regarshi is truly a master of diplomacy, Lazaar is powerless!
...Wait a minute. Oh.

They may be villains bent on conquering the World Above, but that doesn't mean they don't show their affection for each other.

Thanks to one of your threads, we got a few more eyes on our game and even into contact with freelancers to commission some sweet new assets. 👍

Hi Casey!
We are indiedevs from Germany working on a classic pixelart rpg called Charon: Zhetan Chronicles!

It's basically Final Fantasy Octopath Xenoblade Zelda but where you play queers who fight fantasy fascists.

New Demo coming in February!

Looks like the #pixel_dailies server imploded now for good. if you are still on the server, DON'T TOUCH ANY LINKS. GO OUT.

BTW if you're ever curious "who da heck makes game trailers" @derek-lieu.com made a cool starter pack full of people from that side of the biz from indie to AAA. highly worth following them all if you ever wanted to check on that side of the industry.

Let me be clear.. EVERYBODY who has admin or mod privileges in ANY discord server that is even remotely adjacent to gamedev needs to @ everyone about what's going on, and they need to do it YESTERDAY. More ppl got caught up in this, coulda been avoided. Dont click links from ANYONE w/o interrogation

Please be careful when you have an unusual interaction on discord or somewhere else and unprompted links send to you!

Not 100% sure if it comes from this, but the pseudoregalia dev got hacked recently and the compromised account is sending game links around. Do not click anything!

Discord Alert! There's been a series of account compromises in the Pixel Dailies Discord server. Please don't click any links in the server from either username_jamie or ephesos. The accounts have been compromised and are being used to spread a trojan. Sorry for the inconvenience.
