A number of game logos are tiled in the background and faded against a blue hue. The foreground reads “Next Fest. A celebrations of upcoming games. Oct 13 - Oct 20 at 10am Pacific.

Steam Next Fest is back! 🎉

We’re on the lookout for Australian and New Zealand games that are featured in the event. Got a fave you’re wishlisting? Or a game you’re working on? Drop it below 👇

Going back through my MIGW pics, this one really jumped out at me.

Cast 'n' Chill by @wombatbrawler.com looks somehow even more incredible on a CRT. This is how indie pixel art games are meant to be experienced! 📺

Buru’s first ever @paxaus.bsky.social was epic 🐦‼️

Freeplay Parallels 25: everything revealed at the show | ScreenHub: Film, TV, Streaming and Games Freeplay Parallels 25 was a celebration of fun, experimental indie games, and how developers continue to create in a storm of complications.

here’s my full talk roundup for freeplay parallels 25, an excellent evening all around!!

I would love that, let's absolutely make that happen!

PAX Aus 2025 was a testament to the enduring magic of games | ScreenHub: Film, TV, Streaming and Games PAX Aus 2025, across three days of celebration, proved just how vast the world of gaming is, and how it can weave everyone together.

pax aus 2025 was a special one

Was so good to see you and give you a hug, it's been long overdue! Have a safe trip back! 💕

I actually adore this. You can keep the audience guessing every year!

Go Ben!! You've got this! 💖

Spent post pax eating pizza with my mum and brother. The perfect end to a lovely week!

We survived in the end thankfully!

Massive crowd in Melbourne/Naarm today (in case you thought this movement was going to be placated with more colonisation). Until the occupation ends. Until Western war criminals and their enablers face justice. Until Palestine is free.

Nooooo 😭😭😭

I did the same, why does Melbourne hate us 🥲

Only Melbourne could host PAX, a marathon and a landmark protest on one day, and organise works on my train line making it actively harder for us to get in.

highlight of my professional game dev career

Look at how cute Team Frosty are!!! 💖🍦

Parallels was great last night. Absolutely wild that Freeplay has been both the anchor and the beacon for experimental and independent game development in this country for 21 years now.

Gonna make badges that say “I lost my voice cheering for the thirsty house game at parallels 2025”

this game and the talk we all just witnessed at parallels were scientifically engineered to make me hoot and holler

I am so glad this story has a happy ending 😭💖

Freeplay’s Mads Mackenzie Talks Indies at Games Events We spoke with Drăculești designer and Freeplay co-head Mads MacKenzie in the lead-up to Parallels, and discussed the impact of physical events on indie games.

Making my @qualbert.com debut with a chat with @madmacsfuryroad.bsky.social about indies and games events. :)

the current political climate is the perfect reason to make something like this

Aaaahhhh!!

This is actually the perfect review for my mother-in-law. She played BoTW specifically for the horse riding mechanic, that's all she wants from games. Thank you @jesszam.bsky.social!
