The header image for the latest Steam update, it is entitled: "Greenhearth Necromancer: Community Update 3" with three stylized polaroids, showing the protagonist at various stages. (As a child with their Grandmother, moving into the Greenhearth co-op, and on the balcony at night)

One final community update for the road! 🏃‍♀️💨

As we wind down for the year, we've got one last post highlighting our free TTRPG companion, our recent videos, and a wee highlight reel of how far the game has come.

2026 will be a big year for us; we'll see you there! 💚

Oh yeah I don't do this enough probably!

A couple years ago I published a novel about fighting fascism in a Steampunk alt-history Roman empire, full of disabled queer characters (on an airship) firesidefiction.com/book/the-clo...

If you want an in-depth look at our demo from a necromantic expert, look no further! ✨💀

Studio Director @lucasjwjohnson.bsky.social takes our demo for a spin and provides some insight into the game and its development.

Anyone else watching Heated Rivalry and also a @dropout.tv fan notice a loop-de-loop at the smoothie place??

I love getting to be a necromancer taking care of my grandma's garden! 😭

I adore this demo and I can't wait for the full game release! Check out Greenhearth Necromancer with me and thanks again to @silverstringmedia.bsky.social for sponsoring me!

@mjandersen.bsky.social somehow I fucking knew you’d like that post haha 💜

Jess's demo playthrough is so lovely, I'm very excited for them and their community to get their hands on more of Greenhearth :D Thanks @faunandgames.bsky.social !!

Did a big climactic battle in my d&d game tonight which lasted the whole session — always something i worry about as not everyone is into combat as a main vector of play. But I layered in multiple avenues of action (2 main battles plus larger tactical considerations) and it was a huge success

Q: What is the plot? A: Two men have a steamy sexual affair despite not being vampires or elf nobility or anything.

What To Know About ‘Heated Rivalry’ https://theonion.com/what-to-know-about-heated-rivalry/

The fascists are counting on you finding erotica and porn too distasteful to support. Because they always start here. And even if they ended here, sexuality and erotism are integral components of queer expression. You can't support queer creators without supporting 'nsfw' content.

Our very first patch for the Greenhearth Necromancer demo is now available! ✨

We've got a bundle of community-requested fixes and adjustments, and a preview of what we're working on next...

Take a look! 👁‍🗨 tiny.cc/gh-patch-dec0225

We just watched the first episode. It's surprisingly horny for a relatively mainstream show!

I've talked about it before but the AIDS Quilt and the project of memorializing queer stories through tangible physical objects is fundamental to how I want to make art and the methods and mediums I choose. This is such a loving interactive digital archive, and I am so sad and glad for it.

To our demo players, our Discord members, the kind folks on social media, the posters in our Steam forums, the content creators who played our demo, the folks who came to see us at the Vancouver Game Expo, and to you, the person reading this: thank you!!! 💚
