Making engaging puzzles isn't easy. ARKEO uses a unique carry mechanic that is used in many aspects of gameplay. Expirement by interacting with items and see what you can pick up on your adventures.

Screw it. This is ARKEO. Coming 2026.

The journey involves interacting with indigenous villages, gathering information, and deciphering ancient clues to uncover the hidden secrets of the Mayan civilization.

A friend of mine told me about a foreclosed house his friend bought. It had a bunch of old broadcast equipment in it. They were about to throw everything away. Thankfully, I was able to poke around. I found a grail.

I always imagined a hard biscuit, like a scone of some kind. Maybe a space cookie, haha. Or even astronaut ice-cream!

Love to see a pc time capsule of cryostasis. I haven't even heard of the game, but a quick look shows it's very impressive. Even apart from the PhysX stuff.

Congrats to @brittbrady.bsky.social for winning the logo design giveaway! He's making an awesome sidescrolling game for the GBC about a fish who uses bubbles to deal with enemies and the environment. Loved working on this logo, and give this dev a follow!

My little indie adventure is now officially rated E!!! It's kind of surreal, to be honest. Here's to more exciting things to come for Zephyr’s Pass and other things... 👀
