How I started making indie games:

- Got tired of working in the theater industry
- Played Hollow Knight
- Waited for Silksong
- ....
- ....
- ....
- Learnt how to code and animate from scratch
- Made a strategic but goofy game about dwarves

All good things must come to an end!

It's ridiculous we reached 507 positive reviews before our first negative, and even that one has nice things to say!

Thank you to all the chefs who've been cooking up unhinged omelets for a demanding chicken principal ❤️🍳🐔
There's a game on Steam called Omelet You Cook, which looks fucking delightful

They had a 100% Steam user rating, and then someone this morning posted this review

And I know it's haha *so funny*, but also, this person can entirely go fuck themselves

📢 Créateurices

J'aide le jeu Demonschool, donc si un RPG tactique avec une phase de planification pour créer des combos cela vous parle, faites signe en privé pour une clé !

I made a video of my process crafting some creatures of our game Alterfauna✨

I'm using watercolor and colored pencils, my scanner (aka my best friend), Photoshop and Spine

(sorry for the 1rst part's bad quality, I filmed with my shitty phone, I work at night and the light is horrible)

How do you test a game like Blue Prince that goes so deep and refuses to be predictable? Tonda Ros talks about finding playtesters and watching over 2,000 hours of playtest footage!

every single frame of animation, in-house developed sound effect, line of code, visual asset, chart, and line of dialogue was done by a human and done without using generative AI tools in the making of UNBEATABLE. relinquishing creative choices to tools makes your work empty, vapid, and meaningless

We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA.

Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.

Hello, not only do we not use AI we would rather cut off our own arms than do so. Demonschool is 100% human made.

A plea for help. 🙏
One of the lead playtesters of Blue Prince, Iggy, has polycystic kidney disease and has only a few months to find a living kidney donor.

His story, contact and donor information can all be found on
