❤️Super happy to see that RPS covered Grow Wild!
Been working with Philip since mid last year. It's an incredible blend of city building, creature collecting and a 're-wilding' simulator.
Sign up for the playtests and look out for the demo launching into Earth Appreciation fest next month. 🐛🐜🐝
If anyone is willing the share the following, I would be so grateful!
We just launched Piece by Piece on Steam 🎉🎉
It's a cozy repair shop sim, you play a woodland fox who inherits his grandfather's store. You fix up items with your hammer and paintbrush 🔨🖌️🦊

In the stage where all I think about is playing more Pokopia. 🌱🛠️😀✨🍃
#my9games Well, since everyone else is, here are my top 9! :)
📢It's the last day to back this coastal based, fantasy visual novel, Tavern Talk Stories: Dreamwalker on Kickstarter!
The team have worked so hard on this and it's a huge improvement on the games first in the series.
Please support this diverse team. Captain Beebug is so cute too!❤️🐝
Played a couple of rounds of 7 Wonders Duel over the weekend with my wife. Incredible 2 player board game. Going to grab the expansions when I can!
(Wife won both times 😅)
Also, please note the amount of toys we had to put out for the cats to stop them disturbing the game.
It's my birthday, lunar new year and pancake day all on the same day next week. 🎂🐉🥞
Super happy to be speaking at @londongamesfest.bsky.social 's first Self-Publishing Toolkit live sessions in April! 😀🌸

There’s a guy on Facebook who hates the queer romance in Old Skies so much that he’s hopping on every recent thread related to the game to rant about it. Lesson learned. More queer stuff.

Enjoying lazy sunday mornings by the fire reading and writing. ✍️📖 Determined to finish editing my book this year.
I've been running an indie games studio for 15 years now, and it felt like a good time to boil down what I've learned into 4 pieces of advice:

I hope it's of use, not least because goddamn I forgot how long blog posts take to write.
Just providing my weekly Leo picture tax to you all. Here he is being a sun worshipper earlier this week. 🌞😻

First day back at the desk in 2026 and have a beautiful view. ❄️🌨
Had a fab time chatting to Link on the Red Tunic podcast today. Can't wait for you all to hear what we spoke about.
A lovely start to 2026. 😁👏
Seeing the year out with my beautiful wife who makes elite level cheese boards. 😋🧀
Started reading this book series the day before yesterday that my wife got me for Christmas and am already part way through the second book. Honestly one of the best YA distopian series I've ever read. So excited to continue! #YAfiction #Scythe #NealShusterman
