Thanks @sharkbombs.bsky.social for hosting #TurnBasedThursday!
Your Holy & Virtuous Heretic is an atmospheric RPG where you play as a 19th century demon summoner. Explore a strange world, fight tense ritual battles, and negotiate with demons from the Ars Goetia.

I'm the Gimp sicko. I used Gimp before I used Linux, and I continue to use it for basically everything now. Not that anyone else necessarily should, but we exist lol.
my mum did eventually change her mind on the pokemon thing, she was a teacher and was afraid I wouldn't be able to make friends if I didn't have pokemon cards. I remember her handing me a starter pack and giving me a very serious talk about shinto and not getting addicted to the pokemon tcg.
extremely funny post to me, as someone who wasn't allowed to play LoZ Spirit Tracks because it had the word "spirit" in the title, and who initially wasn't allowed to play pokΓ©mon because it had shinto influences specifically.
the logo for the game "key fairy" with the word "key" erased, so that it just says "fairy"
it was all a dream...
forbidden soy sauce
Thanks heaps!
Looking to follow people in the Australian games industry? I've got a starter pack for that!

Any chance you could add me? π
clearly a massive snub from the hottest 100
it joins Sonic: Live In Sydney in the great lineage of theatre based on video games set inexplicably in Australia (this is also real)
pied butcherbird was robbed in the hottest 100 smh
It is finally time to drop the forbidden Kotaku AU headlines chat screenshots. Thank you to @rubyinnes.bsky.social for kickstarting an afternoon that will live in infamy. Thread below.
Play the Your Holy & Virtuous Heretic demo now:

I could be wrong, but I believe it was Cairns? I remember seeing the booth because I mistakenly believed the booth was about games made in Cairns, QLD. I also remembered that the game was about stacking rocks. Steam page is here: store.steampowered.com/app/3810840/...
no
You will like my indie game if you played:

Why is Australia?
ππAs is tradition, we're cataloguing every game released by Australian and New Zealand developers in 2026 (and beyond)π€π€
If you're an Aussie or New Zealand studio working on a game, we'd love to hear about it and add it to the list π

This is crazy, right after SXSW too, and in Vic which has the reputation of being more stable for games than other states. Ditto Jeremy, I really hope it can continue. I'll never forget speaking at Parallels 24.
The new email address is a mirror of the old one (iwillbiterawcoffeebeans@proton.me), and the old one will continue to work indefinitely, so if you have my contact details stored somewhere already don't worry about it.
Brand new, custom domain Bluesky handle, and new professional email address to match (kurt@iwbrcb.games). Plus other neat stuff coming soon hopefully!
