Oh, yeah, NPC writing is the best. You can do worldbuilding, add a gameplay tip, or just invent a memorable weirdo. Or a whole city of weirdos. It's great.

oh man, The Use of Life is finally out of early access. the dev spent almost 4 years in EA (I suspect to their significant financial detriment) trying to finish the game's SIGNIFICANTLY divergent mulitple routes. Fingers crossed it pays off with sales. store.steampowered.com/app/1483370/...

I've been following this for a while. It looks like a super polished and thoughtful game in the vein of Ace Attorney or Famicom Detective Club. Even the UI has that satisfying DS adventure game feeling.
Detective Instinct is NOW AVAILABLE in all regions (on 15% launch discount for the next two weeks)!

Thank you all for supporting us. We did our best to craft a story we can be proud of, so we hope sincerely hope you enjoy it 🫡

Check it out on Steam or Nintendo Switch!

I'll be at AdventureX tomorrow morning, so feel free to message if you're a developer who wants to meet and chat about anything.

What am I playing? It's a metroidbrainia. The music? My intelligent dance music playlist. And this snack? Just some brain food. Hmm, could use a little more sodium chloride...

This is a funny video, but also these are such good deep cuts. Insanely fine taste.

I'm sure some of my followers would be interested in this. Ratto 1800. Sim Squeaky. Uh... Europaca Univolesalis.
Whiskerwood, I hope I have time for at some point, because it looks extremely up my alley, but I am swamped and it's out today! It's a Citybuilder akin to Banished or Timberborn but with mice from the devs of Railgrade.

There's a demo, so maybe check it out

Made a batch of hummus so big it broke my blender, but I’m not even mad because I have 2 kilos of hummus.

The ending to Consume Me is interesting for a few reasons, but I like how [spoilers] as an autobiographical work that catches up to the present, the game becomes a document of its own creation. Dev stuff. Awkward pitch meetings. “It’ll be out soon, mom.” You play a little of Consume Me’s Consume Me.

Ooh, the Gnosia anime has started. Super curious about this because I love the original game for its narrative design - its story perfectly complemented the game mechanics. It must be a challenge to adapt to a different medium.
raqio is such an icon. icon for what, no one knows, but they're certainly SOMETHING

My older game, Aviary Attorney, is also in the Steam sale. It's approaching its ten year anniversary. As a creator looking back I see a lot of flaws, but it still has some charm!

Tip: refuse to do the first case and you can just play cards with Sparrowson.

I'm always trying to keep a mental list of the cool rodent games I come across to share with other rodent fans but I decided to make a starter pack!

Let me know if you have recs or are making a game that fits the description, I want to highlight games that put rodents in a positive light!

I loved making this battle. Gratuitous boss intro animation, Great Mouse Detective setting, Metal Gear pose, Revenge of Meta Knight UI, Pendulum music, text-to-speech environmental facts. Just throwing everything into the pot and making a maximalist stew.

KotD feels like a sister project to Small Saga in some ways (rats, garbage, 16-bit influence, similar dev cycles), and from my brief chats with the developers they seem like cool people. Hope it does well!

Legendary Konami composer Michiru Yamane has a Youtube channel where she uploads piano covers of her Castlevania and Bloodstained compositions, both the famous and the lesser known tracks. They're wonderful performances.
