You take that back

Had the pleasure of getting to see some of this early in development and to chat to the team a bit as part of @imirt.bsky.social 's Indie Dev programme.
An interesting take on the genre for sure

It's so obviously caramel digestives

Sit down with a nice cup of tea.
Take a breath.
Relax.

The answer will come as a wisper to you from a quiet place in your soul.
The truth is inside us all.

I'm sorry you had to experience that. It must have been very difficult.

Look, there is absolutely a correct answer to this.
I don't know why it's even a debate.

We seriously cannot be allowing companies to monopolise the industry, and then arbitrarily appoint themselves the moral arbiters.

A lot of nonsense over the years regarding video game censorship - but, here it is, actual full-blown censorship of art.

Not to mention Furry Hitler, Hitler BDSM Bunker, and the cyberpunk smash hit Sex With Hitler: 2069

Sounds right up my alley!

Ive not heard of Diamant. Is it similar vibes to Android Infiltration? Or more like Deep Sea Adventure?

Telestrations!
That brings memories back. Good game.

Throw Throw Burrito is also a laugh. A sort of dueling card game with some throwing of soft plush burritos at eachother. By the crowd who made Exploding Kittens. I *think* it goes to 8ppl? Definitely 6 at least.

I have BIG LOVE for Pickonimo (also called Heckmeck) - its a push your luck dice game about grabbing dominos from a table. Great one for the pub too.

Jungle speed is super simple. Its basically group snap but instead of grabbing cards to "snap" you grab a wooden stick. Put the stick somewhere random in the house for added chaos!

Codenames is a nice deduction game played in teams. Scales up to around 8 players. Teams have to guess clues to spot which words in a grid belong to their team. Sort of a battleship with word association kind of thing.

How "high energy" are you looking for?
Mysterium is a co-op game for up to 7, where each player is a shit psychic trying to work out messages from a ghost. Think Dixit meets Cluedo.
Jungle Speed is a quick reaction game about being the first to grab a wooden totem. Think snap meets relay racing.

Hello lovely Biccies!

A sneaky peak at some concepts we're working on! I shan't reveal too many details, you'll just have to follow along to find out more ~

But whatever could this be about? Share you thoughts!

Ugh. I just can't spell.
I meant "thrilling" the "thrilling" conclusion. 🤦‍♂️

Terrible.
Awful.
Cheap.

Fun Fact: Did you know that in Japan & Europe, Neon Genesis Evangelion was called Neon Mega Drive Evangelion

It's just moral panic and cheese puns all day every day here at @biscuitfactorygames.com

The twist?
The clock is ticking, and our favourite answer is likely going to take too long!

Can they do it? Stay tuned for the trilling conclusion!

Today in "adventures in game dev planning" -
The team must answer the question "how do we make these animal people homeless in a way that feels satisfying to a player but not upsettingly cruel?"

8 panel comic P1: A title panel; borderless. We see a highly stylised --and decidedly grompy looking-- frog sitting atop a lily pad. The overly exuberant title above them reads "Hello! FREG!" P2: A close up on Freg, as their mouth opens slightly, a look of realisation on their face. The text reads: "Oh! Freg has something to say!" P3 & 4: Back to the POV form the first panel, as Freg gradually hinges open their jaw impossibly wide, almost 180 degrees. P4: We dolly back, as an absolute ream of text spews forth from the open mouth. "Jumping no longer elicits the feeling of sheer joy in me like it did, once upon a time. However, jump I MUST, because what else can I do? You ask my, why, then, would I continue to jump? Dear reader, you may as well ask me the same of breathing." "To not jump is to admit defeat. To give up entirely." P6: We switch to a dramatic low angle, with a fish lens effect, as Freg stares up at the sky, which is filled with cotton candy clouds. P7: Freg --saying "I must away"-- "jumps" off the pad. I say "jumps" because Freg looks like they are simply being dragged by a computer mouse into the air. P8: We end on a borderless panel, far back from the lily pad. The only sign Freg existed are a few ripples in the water around the pad.

hello! freg!

I guess that's what I don't understand. If Chuckledfish / F. Brice are fuckheads because of how they ran Starbound, why isnt every chucklefish developed game on this list? Did they stop being a fuckhead right after?

How do you get on this list? Doesn't Starbound have a big team overlap with Terraria?

We had a spider-man or two show up for us this year. Including a "Ghost Spider" (i.e. spider-Gwen) I think the new series "Spidey and Friends" is slowly making waves with the very little crowd.

It's an artistic representation of a circulatory system walking through a kitchen, as drawn by Dave Gibbons and written about by Alan Moore. It happens a lot 'round here.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

Today I added the backlog item:

"Enemies can attempt to eat cheese and will suffer accordingly"

Honestly pretty hyped about some of the stuff we're cooking at @biscuitfactorygames.com
