Down for some solid platforming puzzles that make you feel like a genius every 5 minutes? Then go ahead and grab @namataka.bsky.social's absolutely stellar game!

Plus, it's an amazing fit for old CRT screens. Super readable, and sounded great on them integrated speakers!

BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really.

Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are.

This is their story: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Why ‘Silksong’ Took Seven Years to Make

The highly anticipated indie game has been in production for so long that it’s become an internet meme
