It's a little rough around the edges, but I'm pleased with it!

Your handy dandy Deteco is going to catalogue your mysteries as you interrogate and gather details. Pull it up at any time to retrace your steps or visualise the timeline of events.
We've got some great news to share!
Our next game, Pixel's Mysterious Mysteries, has been backed by @ukgamesfund.bsky.social for the Prototype Fund!
We've been silently working on the project but with their backing we'll be able to get a solid first playable developed
Psyched to show progress๐ค
Congrats again! โจ

Labour has no vision and are hopelessly barrelling us towards a reform win and an authoritarian state come the next election. They can get in the bin of history where they

One thing I love about the indie dev space is that the vast majority of folks are super supportive of each other.

Definitely not one to be missed! ๐
Out of interest, would anyone like to see a physical edition of Loco Motive?
We're always on the lookout for interesting collabs, and I think a 90s style 'big box' would go extremely hard.
Just in: Unknown Worlds founders Charlie Cleveland and Max McGuire along with former CEO Ted Gill are filing a lawsuit against Krafton.
Much more to come in the next few days
I bought this last week and finished it today! Super fun, great example of the genre, defo recommend

04.07.2025 18:26 โ ๐ 35 ๐ 2 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0This week I've reached the inescapable part of early game development - the need to draw a whole bunch of trees and the rocks.
04.07.2025 14:33 โ ๐ 14 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0These high level executives are so cooked by LLMs their brains no longer work. It's probably the one role AI could replace without anyone noticing a decline in competency.
04.07.2025 10:35 โ ๐ 25 ๐ 7 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0All of this is to say, if you want indies to keep making games, waiting for that 80% deep discount is going to make it very difficult.
Itโs also why Iโve never discounted Lamplight City more than 40%
I know not everyone can afford to buy games at full price, but weโre also not charging $60.
For anyone wondering what sort of 'publisher' would actively sabotage a project like this mid-development - it's Microsoft.

I'm really sorry to see this happen to yet another talented studio.
I'm going to be at Develop Conference next week! โ๏ธ
we're not pitching anything yet but if you want to hear about the next game, I'm happy to talk about it over a pint.
Or if you just want to arrange a hang, my DMs are open
Of course, just keep doing what you're doing! โจ
