Super Text Bros by MarechalBanane Un jeu de plateforme 2D sous forme purement textuelle.

A la #globalgamejam de Rennes de l'excellent @indieco.xyz, j'ai tenté de répondre à la question millénaire : "Peut-on faire un platformer avec seulement du texte ?"

A ce stade la réponse est : "Hmmm pas sûr, mais en tout cas c'est rigolo."

Apparently PICO-8 games collections in the spirit of UFO50 are becoming a thing now, which is awesome!

After the excellent Corgispace by @adamatomic.bsky.social, I can't wait to try this one out!

Will The Man Get Frog on Steam Will The Man Get Frog is a chill little game about composing silly or sweet haikus (short poems) and sharing them with the world! Don't worry about the blank page, the game will provide words for you....

Hello ! Je ne sais pas si ça peut coller, mais j'ai fait un petit jeu de création & partage de Haiku, Will The Man Get Frog, avec plein d'amour et de gros pixels : t.ly/R54w2

Et je travaille en ce moment entre autres sur Picoguessr, un Geoguessr-like dans des petits mondes générés aléatoirement.

I'm not usually big on disguises but this year I tried my hand at a little DIY to pay respects to an important part of my childhood. #GrimFandango

Happy #Halloween everyone!

Ça m'a vachement donné envie de refaire ça et d'encourager cette manière de parler du JV, dans un cadre autre que celui de l'analyse et la critique.

Ça le complémente très bien en étant ptêt moins performatif, pis ça crée du lien et ça ramène à un truc fondamental qui est parler de ce qu'on kiffe.

Et ben c'était trop cool ! Merci à Lise Allard et son groupe de recherche d'avoir organisé ça.

C'est trop bien d'entendre des joueureuses parler de leur rapport personnel et intime à leurs jeux favoris en petit comité, ça crée des discussions super riches.

This is everything we should celebrate in the current landscape of games:
- Worker co-op
- Self-published indie
- Pachinko meets visual novel ??
- Made by people who taught some of the best game design classes I remember

Let's go !!!

It was my first time at @amazefest.bsky.social, and it's been great! A big thank you to all the organizers, creators and visitors.

It's so cool to see so much people gathering to share their enthusiasm, explore the medium and being generally super nice to one another.

See you next year!

Hey! If you're at @amazefest.bsky.social and you have time tomorrow (friday) afternoon, I'll be showcasing #WillTheManGetFrog at the open screens from 2 to 4pm!

But please go check out @sosowski.bsky.social's talk first. Then tell me about it. I can't attend, but I want to know what it was like.

I'd buy Super Penguin Ball & Chain just for the name.

New game: Make Ten Deluxe! Select numbers that add to ten, easy. Then try dozens of wild variants -- 35+ modes

These are the most surprising, challenging, or otherwise delightful modes that I've made over the past year. Enjoy!

Thank you! I hadn't planned a game box. The main idea was to have stickers to distribute and trade at the festival.

From what I gather it's common at A MAZE to give free stuff to decorate laptops/phones/etc. For instance, I'm definitely getting one of these! bsky.app/profile/bast...

Thanks! It wasn't really intended, just the way it was printed. The sticker itself is actually just the coloured part.
