Is garlic toast a good sign???

I've been really enjoying Esoteric Ebb, a narrative game that crosses Disco Elysium with Dungeons & Dragons by way of Douglas Adams. It's goofy and very entertaining. My favorite gag: the main character gets *really* excited any time it seems like an NPC might have a quest for him. Comes out today!

Steam community requesting additional body types for added immersion.

A large block of sentient tofu

Steam community: “Can we play as a male character?”

Me (indie dev in this economy):
“Best I can do is sentient tofu.”

A screenshot of Esoteric Ebb, where the character is trying to figure out if the chest before them is a mimic. It has a sign above it saying "not a mimic"

Vibe: Terry Pratchett DMs Dungeons & Dragons

I went from not knowing anything about this game to being 100% sure I will buy it when it comes out in two days.

Honestly, if the vibe description was enough, you should play this game.

Herd in the store, with a paper slip saying: "Herd, the most recent puzzle game from Slovenian designer Blaž Gracar, is tactile and confounding. It is cute as all get out, but don't mistake that to mean it's easy. Herd is fiendishly difficult."

Puzzle books in the store, with a paper slip saying: "Slovenian puzzle designer Blaž Gracar is on a roll. Abdec, LOK, and Workworkwork offer challenging puzzles that teach you gow to solve them as you go along."

All of my puzzle games are now directly available in NYC! You can get Herd, Workworkwork, LOK and Abdec in The Brooklyn Strategist store, at 148 Pierrepont St. in Brooklyn :)

Yup, we're working on a new Castlevania game.

Baladins Is An Adorable Tabletop-Inspired Co-Op RPG With A Papercraft Aesthetic.

Christopher Miller: In 2014 @philiplord & I made a movie about a corrupt businessman president with funny hair who tried to build walls In 2015 we produced a show about the aftermath of a global virus pandemic This year we produced a movie about a family surviving a robot apocalypse Just a warning.

Every now and then I think about this tweet.

this weekend i visited a beloved local cafe/record store and they had a bathroom labeled "Gay Bathroom". when we complimented the sign the barista said sometimes shitty people ask if there's a different bathroom they can use, so they have a second one in the other room labeled "Super Gay Bathroom"

Being rewarded for guessing in a puzzle game sucks. It felt like Obra Dinn had this problem where it seemed necessary and now I'm running into it with Chants of Sennaar.

Gaming stocks are dropping today after Google's rollout of Project Genie, an AI tool that lets users create and explore virtual worlds for 60 seconds. This is the result of a market that does not understand how video games are made. Allow me to suggest that the Street read Blood, Sweat, and Pixels

A Controversial Video-Game Designer Returns With a New Game and More Controversy The announcement of ‘Order of the Sinking Star’ was met with criticism over the political views of its creator Jonathan Blow

NEW: I spoke to Jonathan Blow about his ambitious new puzzle game and why it took ten years to make. Then, days after the announcement, three designers came out denouncing Blow for his views on Trump (pro), vaccines (anti), and more. Here's the whole messy story: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

People are being tortured and murdered in the street. the idea that in addition to this, we have to call our reps and tell them we dont like it seems insane.
