Also mild spoiler, but according to the devs the story is a metaphor on the folly of gen AI and yeah, it's very obvious in hindsight.
There's some secrets still waiting for me to go around again tomorrow night, too.

Maybe late to the party, but Caput Mortum is awesome. Rates highly on the spooky scale, has a really clever throwback control scheme (think somewhere between Amnesia and King's Field), and is a shockingly good mimic of sixth gen graphics. A really nice and focused ~2 hour experience.

I cannot stress enough to any other Australians to please avoid KWS verification like the plague.
I was checking through what bluesky's verification was and just immediately with this.
If you don't know, KWS had a data breech and it was confirmed user data was stolen that was supposed to be deleted

I say gameplay-wise because I'm dancing around the fact it starts with a massive pair of jugs in your face.
03.12.2025 06:41 — 👍 4 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Gameplay-wise this is probably one of my favourite Source experiences of its era. It's limited weapon and enemy roster make it really tight and punchy, and there's some fun gimmicks like the health containers. It's just got a kind of silliness to it I really dig. Sad we never got the follow-ups.
03.12.2025 06:28 — 👍 5 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0It has standard/invert options, but yeah, iffy aiming and a tight FOV make it feel very unwieldy. I emulated it with patches so I didn't have to deal with the framerate... as much.

I need to set some time aside for the full release of Ctesiphon! I spent a very long time on the demo trying to find all the secrets.
I've just launched my boomer shooter, check it out on steam and itch!

Testing the waters with something a little different: a sci-fi decal/vector pack. Not sure if there's interest in this sort of thing, but they're fun to make. Got ideas for other packs and more pay what you want stuff in the pipeline.
