It’s been a good year for deckbuilders - but what about DICEbuilders? 🎲 Build your dice and purify the ever-encroaching corruption in Astrea: Six-Sided Oracles, which you can now get on Oncade! 🤯

2025's been packed with terrific games. So, if you're not careful, you might miss the occasional gem.

GigaSword, developed by Hybrid Games and published by @akuparagames.bsky.social, is one such game. Learn why this heartfelt metroidvania shouldn't be missed.

Congrats to @bluebackpack.bsky.social on the release of Constance! 🎨💜 @constancegame.bsky.social

Constance’s paintbrush is a little bit lighter than the GIGASWORD Ezra’s used to. A bit messier, too. 🖌️🗡️

Congrats to @ludogram.io and @rawfury.bsky.social on the release of Monsters are Coming! Rock & Road 🤘‼️

With Chronos, it’s less Rock & Road and more Shell & Street - although that doesn’t roll off the tongue quite as well 🐢💜

Trust them, Ezra. Your sword will be returned in due time.

Your actions have consequences in 🤘Dead Pets Unleashed!
