Stream done for today. Mixed feelings overall.
Liminal City didn’t manage to hook me, pacing and design felt a bit flat.
Carbon has a strong setting, but I’m unsure about its core systems.
Replays are already up on Twitch, and will be on YouTube soon.

Shorter stream today.

@regularstudio.bsky.social Motorslice was a blast. Love letter to Mirror's Edge and Shadow of the Colossus. Had to click at first but when it did it was incredible.

Servant Of The Lake is weirdly charming. Good atmosphere and fun puzzles.

Skate Story | OUT DECEMBER 8 You are a demon in the Underworld, made out of glass and pain. The Devil has given you a skateboard with a simple deal: Skate to the Moon and swallow it — and you shall be freed.

(2/2) #SkateStory
What about a stylized skate game with philosophy and a killer soundtrack?
Yup!
Incredible game. Can't recommend enough. May not be for everybody but if you get hooked... Out 8th December. Can't wait!

Gamepie Home of Dobbel Dungeon.

Two games today : (1/2)
#DobbelDungeon. I got attracted by the art and stayed for the gameplay.
Super cute and fun tactical RPG, with stuff, missions, skill tree.
Pretty generous demo as well.
This game needs more attention!

Then : #Duskfade. NGL really loved this one! The art, the gameplay, everything feels good.
I'll take it is a demo and some features are missing but can't wait for the full release. This is my pick of the month.
(Thank you devs for putting out demos!)

Two different games today on stream.
First : The Signal: I have a lot of reserves on this one. The presentation and world looks intriguing and pretty nice but some core mechanics and gameplay loop need some work or redesign. There is need for some QoL features as well.

EA most likely getting worse (can’t even imagine), MS trying to kill gamepass if rumors are true (25$ GPU and no day one on other subs + ads).

My Goty cost me 40 euros and had no micro transaction or live nonsense.

You see dire times, I see time for indies to shine.
