Seeing Ambrosia Sky talked about in the same breath as Scavenger Reign is really special to me!!!

You should wishlist Ambrosia Sky for weird, fungus-based, beautifully gross games??? ❤️ store.steampowered.com/app/3580160/...

My poor partner last night, got woken up by our dog dry heaving and almost puking and me, apparently, trying to scream while in deep sleep paralysis and making awful sounds instead, and he just had to deal with that

Getting to show you all this cover and announce that VILLAIN is officially coming out in May of next year is such a joy and a relief i don't even know how to express it.
www.harpercollins.com/products/vil...

the cover for a book entitled Villain by Natalie Zina Walschots. the cover is a bright magenta with dark blue and teal lettering for the title, and the author's name is in yellow. there is an image of the silhouette of a woman carrying a cane, surrounded by the silhouettes of five superheroes.

I took a Bitsy game I never finished, about a maple syrup heist, and turned it into a poetic memoir about finishing things, for a @gamepoems.bsky.social submission. I'm told it will be shared this weekend at the Winchester Poetry Festival in the UK, which I'm excited about. Takes ~5 mins to play.
