Omg yes! Especially at the trinket exchange - one of the most fun events! Super excited for your upcoming release!! โจ๐ต๏ธ
Everyone male, female, in-between, or none of the above posting #WhatAGameDevLooksLike is handsome or cute and deserves success. Those are the rules.
Update: I've met two of them and they are both VERY cool ๐ช๐
I've seen 3 other people at GDC with morningwitch jackets and I think we all need to meetup and take a picture
#WhatAGameDevLooksLike is one of my favourite things! Thank you @drjclau.bsky.social for creating it๐
Hola! Iโm Marina and Iโm a Game Director for a game that will be announced super soon and Iโm an Emotional Game Designer! ๐
My previous released games include The Berlin Apartment & Dordogne! โญ๏ธ
Oh hey it's #WhatAGameDevLooksLike! I'm KT - Head Bread @thoughtbreadgames.bsky.social & Director of โจStarbright Agency!โจ
It's important to remember why this hashtag exists - Game devs come in all makes and models!! ๐๐ฅ
Love this Marina! ๐
More than you would think! I've met lots of indie devs there who are working on fun VN projects there. But it isn't something usually seen in the main conference talks.
For those going to GDC, Thoughtful Bread is hosting a Visual Novel Meetup in Yerba Buena โจ๐ Come meet other devs and talk about what you are working on! ๐๐ luma.com/3vmesk6f
Good morning
Looks amazing Graham!! I cannot wait to give it a try!! Congrats on the release!! ๐ช๐
๐ดDEMO ANNOUNCEMENT๐ด Surprise! I am thrilled to announce that the demo for Ourlands, my cozy island builder, just went live! Take a break from, well, everything, and go craft your perfect slice of paradise.
Enjoy!

I truly believe that despite the seemingly bottomless evil in our fascist enemies, they are few compared to those who love their community and their neighbors. Most people want peace, want equality and fairness. Most people want to make the world better. And I think we will.

Rewatching Sailor Moon S with the spouse, and I gotta say -- the S stands for sapphic ๐ค

I'm between jobs and strapped for cash so I opened up a little shop on ko-fi, where you can find a huge Twine Grimoire TUTORIAL+DEV BUNDLE as well as a previously UNRELEASED GAME โผ๏ธ
๐ช Grimoire resources are always free on itch, but donations help support my work. ko-fi.com/grimdev/shop
Literally everyone + their mom has been telling me to check out @nthcircle.bsky.social - I mean gay futuristic ace attorney esque VN, that's my jam!
Demo is gorgeous and stylish with such a powerful vibe. I love the writing ๐ค Definitely going to play more when I get home, obsessed ๐ฅ
Back at it again on Saturday... @phantomfeline.bsky.social is a Gameboy inspired puzzle platformer! Really fun, with a great aesthetic and hook.
And it's free on Steam! Recommending this one to my students for their biweekly playlogs, I'm always on the hunt for hq free games for them!
Also as someone who has been a fan for over a decade, and who also makes projects that take a long ass time it was so amazing to see them finally debut this thing? And it's an incredible work of art??
That was a joyous celebration of all their hard work. Man what a show ๐
The Protomen were a revelation -- every concert of theirs I've been to really feels like a religious experience, an all encompassing roleplay where we are both active audience and passive participant to our own fading salvation.
Anyway y'all should listen to Act 3 - it's some straight fire ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
Magfest Saturday let's goooooo โจ๐ฅ
I lost my absolute mind when they played this. Peak cover at the end of a phenomenal show๐ฅ๐ค๐๐ฅ
I just got into Survivors games & The Magus Circle is that + cool sigil drawing mechanic? Really threw me back to the OG HP PC game where you were casting flippendo (iykyk)
Gorgeous pixels, lovely MC, and great mystical vibe. Wishlisted! โจ๐ช
(Photo is not from booth - the booth is lovely!!)
Yes!! That is some deep dedication ๐ช
@memoralysis.bsky.social has been on my wishlist since last year, but finally checked out the demo tonight!!
Loved this supernatural mystery VN! Big Ace Attorney vibes w/ intriguing mechanics ๐ช Art is stylish ๐ฅObsessed with the MC's snark - feels like he has secret trauma and u know I love that ๐
Magfest Indie Devs! The Indie Games Hall - so much good stuff in there ๐ช
Okay it's that time of the night when I play MIVs demos....I'll keep a running thread of what I've tried and enjoyed ๐ค๐๐ฎ
