WADJET EYE IS 20 YEARS OLD!! Which means it’s time to celebrate with another group photo. It’s frankly ridiculous that the universe has allowed me to continue doing this for so long. I’m grateful for it every day. Thank you all.
So excited to see this great deal on games (and books!) from one of my favorite devs, supporting one of my favorite charities.
inkle@inkle.co · 2mo agoOkay, so this is massive and we're terrified. Partnering with @play.breakthrought1d.org in the fight against diabetes, the ENTIRE inkle catalogue is on Humble Bundle right now for $20 -- including TR-49, all four novels, both Overboard! games, 80 Days, all four parts of Sorcery! ... everything.
Nighthawks, our vampire RPG, is coming in FALL OF 2026!! Seize the night as a modern monster, stepping out of the shadows to build a thriving nightclub empire through fear, seduction, and forbidden supernatural gifts. See our new trailer below, and wishlist here: bit.ly/4o36HRx
Hey, I'm gonna be speaking at @narrascope.org in Albany in June! I'm delighted to team up with fellow editor Marissa Koors to dig into the hot new trend of having your game edited and how you can get in on the craze. 2026, year of the game editor! Full schedule: narrascope.org/schedule/

Our acclaimed narrative deduction / audio drama, TR-49, is out now on Nintendo Switch! Sadly, some performance issues have been found in the later part of the game that weren't evident on the dev hardware we used for testing. We've submitted an expedited patch to fix it. Blasted vacuum tubes!

We got an opportunity to speak with @skunkapegames.com about their remake of Poker Night at the Inventory (which comes out tomorrow!). We also go deep into the history of the original game's development and Telltale as a whole. Check it out! open.spotify.com/episode/0XXu...
Narrative game devs & marketers! I want to talk to you about marketing narrative games for a video. I've already set up a couple of chats, but would love to hear from a few more ppl. If you're down to answer a few questions, on-cam or otherwise, DMs are open! So is my email exalclaw[at]gmail.com!
My literal favourite thing about running a small studio: we can make things better overnight. - If you found the TR-49 screen uncomfortable to read / focus-on, try the new Reduce Glitches setting; it's significantly crisper / easier to read. - And if you hate helpful games, try Reduce Hints mode.
inkle@inkle.co · 6mo ago⚠️ TR-49 -- CALIBRATION REVISION ⚠️ The TR-49 computer appears to have changed. We found two two new switches in Settings. 1) REDUCE GLITCHES: Reduces text animation for more comfortable reading 2) REDUCE HINTS: Deductive mode for self-directed play See attached. Thank you for your observations.
TR-49 is Inkle's best launch ever. Insightful commentary on the power of words. And proof that big budgets aren't what make games good Not bad for a project that started life as a throwaway idea Inkle never planned to sell www.polygon.com/inkle-tr-49-...
Fake news and podcast drama led to one of 2026's first great games
What started as a library card mystery ended up being Inkle's best game launch yet

Does TR-49 work on Steam Deck? Here's an entire article about how, yes, it does work on Steam Deck, via @pcgamesn.com
This 96%-rated WW2 game is perfect for Steam Deck, so why isn't it verified?
I played the entirety of Alan Turing-inspired, enigma-cracking war game TR-49 on my Steam Deck, but it's not verified for some reason.

Go play TR-49, it's a crunchy little treat that will unfurl inside your brain with the vibes of a mandela effect you invited in. store.steampowered.com/app/3838370/...

Sam Barlow 🔥@mrsambarlow.bsky.social · 6mo agoI made the time (thanks snow!) and it was a cracker! Took me about 4 hours and was a riot all the way. 🙏 @inkle.co @jon.inkle.co
For me, one thing that made this a great launch was how we teased it, blurring the lines of reality and fiction in the marketing. I'd spent the summer going down the rabbit hole of My Chemical Romance's Black Parade tour & loved the idea of creating a sort of ARG around the game launch.
Jon Ingold@jon.inkle.co · 7mo agoTR-49 is our best launch, ever, in 14 years. I admit I'm surprised! Made in 9 months, mostly as an experiment to learn Godot, and an excuse to play with some actors. (And for me to do some acting.) One thing I think IS cool: it's a "one-sitting" game. 4 hours; $7. No commitment required.
In TR-49, a record of history is so distorted and revised by language that figuring out the truth becomes a puzzle. Will historians be able to figure out what is happening to us today when we’ve trained ourselves to speak in careful codes? My review. www.polygon.com/tr-49-review/
TR-49 is a harrowing deduction game for a harrowing moment
It's all about cracking codes and unraveling a political mystery.

The embargo on TR-49 reviews lifted 30 minutes ago and I'm sitting here reading the first reviews thinking, "I can't wait until @inkle.co wakes up."
24 hours from now we will release the works of Pemberton, Kendrick, Silverton and the rest into the world. We have no idea what the consequences will be. We have every reason to believe that when this happened before, it was seismic. Good luck.

for normal, not-sad reasons, it would be cool to hear if anyone is looking for freelance coverage of games like TR-49, Cairn, or Perfect Tides: Station to Station when they're out!
Would love to speak to any regular international GDC attendees who are skipping this year's show (or were going to attend and have now cancelled) due to the current political climate. DMs here or luke@aftermath.site, thank you!
btw indies, you should really hire @thisisstar.bsky.social if you can for trailers - her trailer for TR-49 is up on GameTrailers where it has 10x the views of anything released around the same time (except, I think, Warhammer). And for a game which is *really* hard to trailer too...
