Bean Sidhe on Steam Bean Sidhe (banshee) is a narrative walking sim through Irish and modern history featuring fully voiced interactions and colorful 3D landscapes.

Happy Pride! Bean Sidhe is live on Steam. If you need a reminder that joy is resistance and resistance lives in the very bones of our species, give it a look. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame store.steampowered.com/app/3694740/...

Steam Partnership is a success. Stay tuned for when Bean Sidhe will be available!

In the meantime, if you have already played and could take a moment to review the game on Itch, that would be very helpful.

Thank you, and stay hopeful, friends. #gamedev #indiedev

I think we could all use the messages and stories told in โ€œBean Sidheโ€ right now. This is a beautiful and inspiring game! @sealbeegames.bsky.social did an incredible job. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ชโœŠโค๏ธ๐Ÿชฆ๐Ÿพ

First batch of direct aid sent to Nebula and Ahmed. No charity oversight or fees, just people helping people. Thank you so much to everyone who's donated for the game so far - it's a small act of resistance, but it's truly making a difference.

You know what the coolest part about being a self-managed indie dev is?

You can take a week off to recuperate and nothing falls apart (but you do log back in to 500+ Discord messages).

Happy Monday!

"But where was your launch day bug?" you may ask. Because we all know, there's ALWAYS a launch day bug.

Apparently it was in the donation button for the full walkthrough. It's fixed now, and I get to be annoyed about a bug that WASN'T my fault. Win/win!

Watch our very own QA Maestro roll through the game he broke about two dozen times and... hopefully not break it this time.

Okay, we're in the home stretch: Bean Sidhe launches in 4 days. Ya girl has them all off work and everything is currently on track.

Anyone want to place bets on how many errors I get in the zero hour while compiling my final build?

After a full hour of troubleshooting a menu widget, I needed a change of pace. Then I remembered that sound effects exist.

"What's she working on now," you ask?

Hell if I know, but it walks, runs, creeps, and has a quest log. So probably either something about judicial reform or hostile architecture in tech.

You know - easy, chill stuff.

And since character counts are a blessing and a curse, thanks to @thecandacemarie.bsky.social for this beautiful edit. This game would not exist without them.

I'm saving most for the game proper, but in light of everything, this performance felt important to share. Thank you to @byconniechang.bsky.social for giving voice to Ash and to @djstygian.bsky.social for contributing to the script.
