Dogubomb is an indie game and film studio hidden among the long shadows of Hollywood. After a decade of making stuff for other people, we decided to make something for ourselves: Blue Prince. @blueprincegame.bsky.social
My next game will be "20 More, Somehow Even Smaller, Mazes".
It will be free.
Wishlist it today!

But are they π π‘πππ good mazes, though?
Really wanted to animate this one :D π
(I love this game so much, it has invaded my head)

It has been pointed out to us that the same 3 outlets (@polygon.com, @theguardian.com, @eurogamer.bsky.social) that named "Blue Prince" their Game of the Year, are the same three that named "Outer Wilds" their Game of the Year six years ago! Hat-trick! π©ππ

Blue Prince is our 2025 game of the year.
Here's why it's so much more than just a brilliant puzzler:

Thank you @pcgamer.com for awarding Blue Prince Best Design 2025 ππ
Seeing @pockettrap.bsky.social 's absurdly good Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo at #3 on Slant's best of the year makes us very happy as it is also in our top 3 of the year. This game deserves its petals.
Play its demo to see what love & polish looks like:

The halls of Mt. Holly have revealed something brand new. The second wave of our collaboration with Blue Prince features a 2xLP, a CD, a plush and pin of Swim Bird, a replica of the Secret Garden Key, a desk mat, and a postcard + stamp set. https://bit.ly/iam8bit-blue-prince
This is one of our favorite games of the year!
God tier atmosphere.
It was worth the wait. π
Amazing.
Trophies earned will be permanently added to the trophy room.
Hi folks, this is again a plea for help. There still is no cleared donor. People working through the system but again-if you're at all interested in trying to help, it takes months to get cleared as a donor. There's a lot of delays/appointments.
So please consider and spread it around, thank you.
Iggy was an invaluable tester and contributed so much to the project. He was absolutely brilliant in the game and came up with so many original strategies we had never considered.
Please help us spread the word and as we help find him a living kidney donor. π
A sketchy wizard's potion has turned us into the Dog Witch. ππ§ββοΈ

I spoke with Tonda Ros, creator of this yearβs indie hit, Blue Prince, about how, as a child, an unexpected bequeathment - not unlike the one that powers his game - provided him a near endless supply of NES games.
Next weekβs guest is Tonda Ros, creator of viral hit Blue Prince.
In the episode, he reveals the unlikely βgolden gooseβ that funded development and how teaching himself Unity opened the door to one of the most distinctive indie games of recent years.
