Renee! DEVIL'S LIMINAL early access out now!

In the face of the mass censoring of adult content happening around gaming storefronts, the community run bundle @queergamesbundle.bsky.social is a reminder of how to take some of that lost autonomy back.

Here’s a trailer I made for this year's edition. Support it here: itch.io/b/3062/queer...

My horror/yuri visual novel DEVIL'S LIMINAL is part of @gamedevist.bsky.social Debut Festival! Check it out, along with other debut games from new studios.

#DebutFestival

Today is the last day of Matching Donation Week! Donations help out with travel grants and running the conference. It's a very tangible way to support the creators and academics of queer games 🙏

The reviews on the game so far have been SO kind. 🥹 I'm so appreciative that people have been enjoying DEVIL'S LIMINAL so far. Hoping to find some time in the next couple of updates to add more gallery images and voice acting!

Balancing my time between drawing yuri and learning Dutch...

The Kickstarter for Winter Heat is LIVE, and the demo for Winter Heat is ALSO LIVE!

Check it out and support within the first 48 hours for the early bird tiers!

DM me if you want to check out Early Access!

Yesss so glad you enjoyed it! I'm catching up with the stream right now. 👀

Completed the demo for @studiointerlude.com's #DEVILSLIMINAL and...MAN. The slow creeping horror, when it finally hits? So good. My chat started yelling about how dare it leave off there. I feel like I don't experience a lot of slow build horror these days, and this does it well. 10/10

I'm very excited to attend QGCon in September! Right now is a great time to donate even a little bit for matching donation week.

The spam comments have gotten so bad that I actually dread seeing a notification. I don't remember it being like this even last year.

It's still Pride somewhere (in Amsterdam)! Pick up this bundle with a ton of great queer works! It also includes DEVIL'S LIMINAL 👀

July v0.2 update! | Studio Interlude Get more from Studio Interlude on Patreon

A humble reminder that I have a Patreon with some fun behind-the-scenes art, and the July update for DEVIL'S LIMINAL has been posted!

Stop payment processors from censoring games!

As you may have heard, thousands of NSFW games have been removed without warning from multiple platforms over the past few days. This sets a troubling precedent for the future of games.

If you want more information on why this is happening and how to help, read more here: stop-paypros.neocities.org

Don't forget you need to pressure Visa and Mastercard every fucking day until they change course. One day of anger isn't going to be enough to move the needle. They need to be ground down and exhausted.

Oomfie next to three of the games that will be showcased in the Yuri Kissaten Espresso with the text "SUMMER YURI SHOWCASE" the games featured next to her are Distant Oceanic Getaway, Eclipse : Special Forces, and This Winter of Ours

Our next showcase featuring new and upcoming yuri games is coming this August 1st, mark your calendars! A premiere will be set up soon at youtube.com/@YuriKissaten

Leaf mentioned in the official itch discord server that the open case they have with Stripe right now is probably the most critical right now. Submit a complaint to Stripe here: stripe.com/legal/compla...

I'm seeing it too. Wish it were an uptick in interest under better circumstances.

It's no longer my birfday, but I'm going to keep this up for a little while! (And the Ko-Fi goal will always exist)

I'm trying to leave my job through normal means too (finding a new one, etc.) but at this point I've got to consider other options too, including asking for help OTL

Mastercard: Sex Work is Work. End Your Unjust Policy. Mastercard's new policy unfairly targets the adult content industry, making sex workers more vulnerable, especially Black trans women. It must be stopped.

Once again, there is an ACLU petition specifically made to stop Mastercard from unlawfully policing adult content. It’s getting pretty grim for us out there. Please sign and/or spread the word.

Happy birthday!!
