Monsoon Games

Delightful interview in form of a podcast, that actually feels more like a conversation between friend.

Chris prepares greatly and is super engaged which leads to fascinating questions tailored to the interview partner.

Do yourself a favour and check it out. It left me with a warm smile :)

Thank you!! I'm glad you think so, and happy Valentine's to you!!

Happy Valentine's Day from the Merry Crisis love interests 🌷 Some sneak peeks you can look forward to!

It's #blackhistorymonth . Are you supporting BLACK #indieanimation and black independent media as a whole ? There's so many black indie creators making our work because studio systems tell us there's no audience. Check out this thread for a plethora of BLACK INDIE projects .

Thank you so much for having me! Really enjoyed talking about the game with you guys :)

Figured I'd share a bit of steam review insight on the horse game server inspired by this 🫡

Wow this is so beautiful! Love how you got the reflection in the water

AHHAHA I am both terrified and honored that you played the game with other genders, I promise there'll be slightly more content changes depending on those choices in the full game/longer demo, especially for queer storylines :P

Thank you so much for playing I had a blast watching the stream!

30 More Most Anticipated Indie Games of 2026(ish) Adding 30 more indies to the amazing list that No Small Games created.

I launched a new, free Substack over the weekend and I plan on having something new there at least once a week.

Right now you can find my @nosmallgames.bsky.social inspired list of 30 upcoming indies that I’m anticipating: open.substack.com/pub/honestin...

Thank you so much, it was so much fun! If you guys haven't checked out @honestindies.bsky.social's substack, there's a few great articles on there and a podcast episode!

Honest Indies Substack for a post titled “Developer Spotlight - Allie Wu of Monsoon Games” and subtitled “Found Family & Urban Planning. A screenshot from the game Merry Crisis as the base. A twenty-something year old New Yorker is holding one down while a second is jumping up toward him. He’s wearing an open black jacket with a white shirt underneath, glasses that are black on the top half and clear/white below and short dreads.

My last fun Honest Indies thing of the week.

I got to chat with @monsoongames.bsky.social over social & email and came away with a wonderful blend of insightful and silly responses.

Now I’m looking forward to both games that they’re working on even more and craving something caffeinated.
