Hell yeah! @fourbitfriday.bsky.social and team have made one heck of a fun game: a turn-based RL that often feels like a frantic arcade title, with the added satisfaction of sudsing up a variety of grimy locations and monsters. 🫧🧼

Solo Mode is also available btw! That's how I played.

Just to be clear, I’m suggesting putting your free games on Steam for free… to get access to Steam’s players and Steamdeck and let you directly cross promote with Cursed Castilla. Maybe adding some achievements because they’re popular?

Check out Evil Egg or Bananner Nababber as examples!

Ah, I see! Well, just to offer my perspective, I think what you'd get in exchange is access to their audience, to their curators, to Steamdeck.

On top of that, there is some comfort for players in knowing the game went through a review process. And that they can read/post their own reviews.

I'd personally love to have more of your games to play on Steam/my Steamdeck and recommend them on my curator channel.

Having your free games on there may also guide Steam players toward Cursed Castilla and Super Hydorah.

Those photos are amazing! A published book that collected scans of some of those arcade community notebooks would be so cool.

The Tower of Druaga (Arcade) Courageous Perseus (PC-88) Dragon Slayer (PC-88) Hydlide (PC-88)

While we're celebrating Zelda's 40th, I want to give some love to some of the foundational action adventure games that predated it. Hydlide, in particular, deserves more respect outside of Japan for what it did for the genre in '84 (PC88).

The Katsuya Terada illustration isn't technically of the first Zelda game, I don't think, but I always felt his work captured its spirit best.

Shout out to The Legend of Zelda after 40 years! A game whose sense of exploration and adventure still feels unparalleled to me in many ways.

Genuinely unnerving trailer for this upcoming stop-motion horror game. Just like the horror movies I'm interested in, I'm alternately excited and apprehensive to see what it's about!

And the team's previous games, Judero/Mashina (also stop-motion) are on sale: store.steampowered.com/bundle/49099...

I LOVE the new art-style for Rift Wizard 3. The first two games were pretty utilitarian pixel-art, but the chalk-sketch aesthetic here is gorgeous.
