Favourite indie game sequels? (indie = self-published)

The ones that come to mind to me are

@caravelgames.bsky.social 's DROD 3: The City Beneath (caravelgames.com/Articles/Gam... )

and

@maddymakesgames.com 's Jumper 3 ( www.mattmakesgames.com )

I got that bit of info from Ben Cousins, and have mentioned it several times. Others have referenced it too, see www.researchgate.net/figure/Jumpi... which probably will link to his original source.

Hey y'all! Here's part 1/2 of some boards I did for @jellybox.bsky.social for the remix of Everything is Fine, by @qbombband.bsky.social, remix by @livingtombstone.bsky.social! These boards were kept SUPER loose and served more as a general guideline for each of the animators.

Cheap trick of the day - draw a little path and then build the cliffs around it. Worked pretty well! #oeufgame #godotengine

AI will make money will lose its meaning. I, a billionaire investor, believe this, which is why I'm investing on AI

ANDREESSEN: Even if AI ends up destroying all the jobs, “the result would be hyper-deflation of prices, which is the thing that people miss. .. Things that today cost a lot of money will all of a sudden be cheap or free.”

I think anyone who saw the episode where Mr. Rogers explains the Trolley Problem has it seared in their memory forever.
So much violence, depictions of gore we never thought possible in puppetry.
We wept, we screamed, we were scarred.
Still, it was educational.
So that’s good.
I guess.

Rudy wants revolution. @rude1.blacksky.team · 1d

TL; DR
In the next 5 business days you should be able to go to Link's page on blacksky.community and see his posts and he'll be able to post but people using the bsky mobile apps won't see it.
After that we'll get Blacksky-only posts up.
After that we can talk about purging bsky mod tools
