Went to check and the subscriptions page on Xbox won't load right now and I *have* to assume it's from heavy game pass cancellation traffic lol.

ok i said i'd do it, writing up a list of games on the list sorted by price so you can ultra value shop <3

don't forget that leaving a tiny good review for the indie games you like as you browse can have a really positive outcome on their sales

MAGENTA💜💀SKULL🔪 @magentaskull.bsky.social · Oct 24

indie games on steam can be hard to find!

even if you spend DAYS in the discovery queue, theres still no way to discover so many of the great titles on steam!

i curated a list of 250+ fantastic titles, please follow and share these gems with your friends! store.steampowered.com/curator/4496...

Considering I hadn't painted for 7+ years when I started the first of these, I'm really happy with the quality increase. :3

Devi Metric @goddexxmachina.bsky.social · 13d

And here's XI bc I don't think I've uploaded it yet.

I was originally going to paint my summoner rainbow but the walkup to the final battle felt a more fitting celebration

A large bronze Automaton carries a woman in mage garb and a shimmering blue fox-like creature to a snowy stone castle in the distance.

Still not moving around much yet (only a few days into surgery recovery) but I did get to finish the Final Fantasy V painting I started just before.

I've been doing a piece for every one I beat and I've got I-V as well as XI down so far.

A painting of a man in regal black clothing standing off against a light blue and gold knight-like figure using a large blue crystal as a shield. These figures are Galuf and Exdeath from Final Fantasy V.

Have been taking advantage of my surgery-related game delay to touch up some of the first areas I made using new knowledge and damn, its wild how much just *doing* improves the quality of the work.

A misshapen building with a massive telescope atop towers out of a concrete street. Behind it are a few crooked trees, a moon pierced with a small missile, and a massive glowing sun.

Hi everyone, last night after a ton of work the HFTGOOM Bonus pack released in Japanese.

It would mean the world to me if you would consider signal boosting it here:

It would mean a lot to me for the translation to find players.

By the by, my upcoming surgery and related anxiety have had me way behind on self-promotion quota. If you want to wishlist a first-time, queer, and very stressed out game dev and play a neat little adventure game about hope and ambition in the face of death...

Speaking of great brawlers going cheap, Clash: Artifacts Of Chaos is around $5 right now, ala Zeno Clash 3.

It's like a surrealist Chilean interpretation of the God Of War reboot. Similar third-person brawling and character dynamics, but much stranger.

Extremely honored to have the opportunity to interview the inimitable @brycebucher.bsky.social about 500 CALIBER CONTRACTZ, his creative process, and the sense of old-internet mystery that his games evoke.
