About six hours to go until the Demo Dive checks out the demo for All Living Things, by MOXO. Stop action hidden object / messing with the set dressing puzzle game. Though apparently the demo's short, so come see for All Living Things and a second surprise demo dive! www.twitch.tv/ceebee514

Demo Dive - WINTER BURROW

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 2d

Free to read on my Ko-Fi: review of the demo for Winter Burrow, by @pinecreekgames.com - solid and adorable survival game with maybe one or two niggles but definitely a "top of the wish list" item. ko-fi.com/post/Demo-Di...

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 2d

In just under six hours, the Demo Dive will be trying the demo for Winter Burrow, by @pinecreekgames.com - cosy survival game where adorable mice knit sweaters and bake pies (a skill I have yet to master in real life). Come join me! www.twitch.tv/ceebee514

Demo Dive TGIF - CABERNET CHAPTER 2/3

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 5d

Write-up for the third TGIF session of Cabernet! I-as-Liza broke into a house, fed on a somebody, got cheated at cards, helped a drunk find some clarity, and found the best bookshop ... plus a colleague trying an unconventional means of resurrection. ko-fi.com/post/Demo-Di...

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 5d

A little over six hours to go before the Demo Dive brings you TGIF - The Game In Full! We're back to Cabernet, where Liza has to do Crime for the Countess, stealing documents from a nice lady and her drunk-ass husband. Come see how *that* turns out! www.twitch.tv/ceebee514

Demo Dive - STARBRIGHT AGENCY

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 7d

Review for the demo of Starbright Agency is now up! And thanks to @thoughtbreadgames.bsky.social for stopping by! Verdict - definitely one to pick up when it comes out. ko-fi.com/post/Demo-Di...

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 7d

About two and a half hours away from the Demo Dive, where we'll be streaming the demo for Starbright Agency, a romance visual novel by @thoughtbreadgames.bsky.social - which gives Dream Daddy meets Sailor Moon meets the Romantice Fake-Real Turn trope vibes. Come check it out! www.twitch.tv/ceebee514

Demo Dive: DREAMNEST and CRESCENT COUNTY

1 1

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 8d

Ooh. This one's definitely going on the Demo Dive stream.

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 9d

Two demo reviews for the price of one! (Both were or at least ended up kind of short, gameplay-wise.) So not only do we have Dreamnest, but we also have Crescent County! One kinda zen but, one "please don't let it be that controller-centric forever because I WANT IT". ko-fi.com/post/Demo-Di...

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 9d

Four hours (just under, actually) until the Demo Dive comes up from the dumpster with the demo for Dreamnest, an interesting-looking chill puzzle-type architecture-ish game! It's hard to describe, so if it intrigues, come see! www.twitch.tv/ceebee514

Demo Dive TGIF - CABERNET CHAPTER 2

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 12d

Cabernet stream went well! Write-up on my Ko-fi - free to access, but feel free to drop me some caffeinated bean water if so inspired. Monday night, we look at a city-building puzzle game of sorts called Dreamnest; hope to see you there! ko-fi.com/post/Demo-Di...

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 12d

Just under six hours to go until we pick up the Demo Dive's TGIF (The Game In Full) stream of Cabernet, by @pintroverts.bsky.social - we've made it to the Doctor's home with dawn at our heels, so let's see what's next! Hope to see you there! www.twitch.tv/ceebee514

Demo Dive: METAPHOR REFANTAZIO

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 14d

The prologue for Metaphor: ReFantazio is much longer than I expected, but what of it I managed before it got too late in my time zone to continue, I really enjoyed. It is now a must-have, pretty soon. Rest of the review here: ko-fi.com/post/Demo-Di...

On Video Game Adaptations

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 14d

New essay - more of a slightly grumbly thinkpiece, as befits a goblin - exploring the difficulties of adapting a CRPG to TV or movie. Enjoy! ko-fi.com/post/On-Vide...

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 14d

About six hours to go before the Demo Dive takes a look at the prologue of Metaphor: ReFantazio! Oldish news it may be, but maybe I'll make it look fun - or at least my flail will be. Hope to see you then! www.twitch.tv/ceebee514

In a little over three hours, we'll be looking at the demo for I Hate This Place by Broken Mirror Games! Isometric comic-style 80s vibe survival horror. Sounds like Stranger Things on comic-cracn and I am here for it! Hope to see you there! www.twitch.tv/ceebee514

Demo Dive TGIF - CABERNET CHAPTER 1

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 19d

Cabernet Chapter 1 went well, even with a few audio-related niggles. Write-up here, and well-done to @pintroverts.bsky.social on this one. ko-fi.com/post/Demo-Di...

CeeBee's Demo Dive @ceebee514.bsky.social · 19d

In just under three hours, the Demo Dive does something a little different - we're playing Cabernet by @pintroverts.bsky.social - which I can get away with because I discovered it as a demo way last year. They have merch now, btw - check it out! Hope to see you on stream. www.twitch.tv/ceebee514
