an illustration of pelicans, crabs, fish, and a duck in a minimalistic but really cool style. or at least the artist thinks so.

We hope you enjoy playing our game as much as we loved making it. What started as an experiment is now a full 3D gallery where you can explore Bluesky feeds and art shares like the works of art they truly are.

A new kind of heist game. South African game studio announces Relooted, a game all about stealing stolen cultural artifacts from museums and bringing them back home to Africa.
Get the details here:
A caribou stands low in a field awash in autumnal oranges and yellows. Its head raised slightly, it looks off to the side while a pair of tall, sweeping antlers rises from its head, a bright red crown of newly hardened branches. Velvet still clings to the antlers in patches and tatters.

Oh yea! and if you missed the original nonograms, they can be played here!

The solutions to the nonograms all join together to form the design above.
It was a lot of fun balancing this design to work as a pattern versus working as a set of puzzles-- I may get together my notes on the creation of it sometime. :)

The pattern for the Pi Day Nonograms is up! It's the same design as the puzzles, but all together for ease of stitching. There's also a Pattern Keeper version, as well.
The different numeral systems are, from the top: Babylonian, Maya, Chinese, Arabic, Roman, and Burmese.

YO how much do you want them??
I found a guy who owns a club in Australia who says he has all of them-- 'all four', he says-- and will sell for AU $49.50 each, so roughly $32.15 US, plus shipping.

22.05.2025 17:44 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Screenshot of walking through one of the Blackhaven museum exhibits titled "The War Comes to Blackhaven". Various Revolutionary war era objects and paintings are on display. Kendra is holding up a small tablet with trivia questions on the exhibit.
It's a quick game, and a fantastic one-- apparently the dev lead is a history prof, and consulted with other historians during the making of the game, and it shows.
Also it lets you live out the dream of going to a museum, touching all the objects, and then getting to poke into the back rooms.
The game opens on Flag Day: everyone else is at a company picnic, so you've got the place to yourself.
You start in the public areas of the visitor's center-- exhibits, front desk, gift shop-- but later, you get to explore the back rooms, too, and learn more about the FULL history of the site.
Screenshot of Blackhaven hall at night: a large colonial-era red brick plantation. A solid half of the original construction is missing, and has been replaced by a modern glass-and-steel reproduction.
You play Kendra Turner, an intern at a historical site: "Blackhaven Hall", a plantation that burned down during the revolutionary war and has since been restored. Kendra's the newest hire, and-- notably-- the only black employee, but she needs the credit for school, so you do what you gotta do.

Another pixel cross-stitch with a fancier border. The spacing for the quote is a little odd, though.
found this post open in an old tab--- kerning for the second one is a little wack, but something like these? just as like a fun free gift kinda deal. :) I can tweak colors/spacing if you'd like, and pop either/both into a pattern maker and get a PDF or Pattern Keeper file.
22.05.2025 02:34 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Picture of a cross stitch with fabric sewn onto the sides. The cross stitch says, βcaptainβs coffee clubβ and has two stainless steel coffee mugs. There are two types of fabric, black in a small border around the cross stitch and then at the corners and another fabric which has red stripes and a stylized figure of a woman in a Starfleet uniform, meant to be captain Janeway, but the face doesnβt really look like her.
Sheβs coming along. Love her. The sides arenβt sewn on yet, but ready for tomorrow. If I had planned better, I would have made sure that the cross stitch itself was smaller so that I didnβt end up with those cut off feet and heads, but oh well. Live & learn. We will not be making it over again. π

Hey artists! π That art share youβre hosting belongs in a museum! π
Weβre building a little game that lets you link a Bluesky feed or post and it will display your images in an art gallery. Just like Bluesky, it hides posts for logged-out viewers if you have visibility off. π
