The Academy of Fun + Games takes place from October 23-25th, ending with Games Made Open on the 25th, 10am-4pm! Have you been wanting to dive into Godot, the free open source game creation tool that spawned games like Slay the Spire 2? The Toronto Tool Library’s workshop is a great place to start.

Celebrated turning the ‘ol 32 by visiting the Colosseum today ☺️🍷🗡️

Jennifer Hale once told me Canadians need to champion ourselves more. I wholeheartedly agree. Over the past few months, I reached out to dozens of Canadian devs to learn their favourite Canadian games. Their varied responses offer a wonderful spotlight on some of the incredible talent we have here.🍁

These are must-play Canadian games, according to Canadian devs

As Canadians, we don't champion ourselves enough, so we asked dozens of game developers to do just that.

I have an unconventional solution to the loneliness crisis and the erasure of third spaces...

I’ve had a conversation like this at every networking event I’ve been to in the last year:

National Video Games Day is a good moment to celebrate the games we support here at Big Blue Sky Games, from the released Capy Castaway by Kitten Cup Studios to Cutout, an upcoming pre-alpha title from 906 Games! 💙✈️

✨Woodo is OUT NOW✨ on Steam, PS5, Xbox, Switch 1 and 2 Woodo is a wholesome, relaxing and story-driven game that might warm your heart. Help with a RT 🔁💛

I put on this outfit and my boyfriend said I look like I hunt people for sport ☺️

Still thinking about the Zelda OOT announcement 🤔😂

Flipping through the Game Dev passport I prototyped and brought with me to @torontogamesweek.com this year still brings a smile to my face, seeing all the doodles and notes from the people I met fills me with joy!!! ❤️

Um, actually, we already had this with @capycastaway.com and @softrains.bsky.social!!!!! 😤

Uncomfortably perceiving every hair follicle visible on Link's head was not how I expected this Zelda Direct to go

The first episode of the podcast featured @saffronaurora.bsky.social talking about @capycastaway.com after the first demo released and in today’s episode I’m joined by @beezelda.com to discuss the game post-launch. We also chat about queer joy, d&d, and plenty more. youtu.be/o5as-D6cTgk?...

Excited for the upcoming Zelda Direct!!! #art #fanart

Going back into old art and asset files and feeling attacked by my own destructive workflow

A short poem to commemorate National Wildlife Day 🐯 😅

Self-indulgent burnout art to kickstart the day

I've got a couple of posters in this! :) I added lots of fun little easter eggs, notes, and doodles for @capycastaway.com and @mightyyell.bsky.social's The Big Con ❤️ It's a great little gallery, I highly recommend checking it out!

Really love what @artbygavin.bsky.social has done with @artoftheconcept.bsky.social, a free art gallery at George Brown featuring key artwork from local indies. It's such a cool way to spotlight some of the incredible dev talent we have here. Definitely check it out if you haven't yet!

One of the most creative Canadian indie games in recent years is Lil' Guardsman from Toronto's @playhilltop.bsky.social, so it's cool to see that it's coming to Android, iOS and Mac later this year. 🍁 Can't recommend enough! (Also: check out their next game, Curse of Resthaven, on Steam.)

One of Canada's most creative indie games is coming to mobile later this year

Lil' Guardsman was one of 2024's best games, and it'll soon launch on Android, iOS and Mac.

Given the U.S.’ abhorrent and completely unjustified attacks on Canada that are hurting so many Canadians *and* Americans while destroying many, many years of friendship, I thought I’d reshare some cool Canadian games that deserve support. 🧵 🍁

Canada rarely gets to play itself -- these games are changing that

From showcasing stunning landscapes to telling diverse stories, here's how developers are representing Canada in their games.

I’m not going to be at Gamescom this year, but if anyone wants to share any Fable, Planet Zoo 2 or Witcher 4 stuff with me I would appreciate it LET ME LIVE VICARIOUSLY THROUGH YOUUUUU

It’s been a week post-launch! And I feel like I’m still trying to reconfigure myself. What am I supposed to do when not thinking about THE VIDEO GAME 24/7?! Think about myself and my own hobbies and separate interests?! Getting my hair done did certainly help with this though.

Are you a cosplayer looking for more details on Dalia's outfit? Maybe you just want to look at some cool art? Either way, we've got you covered with our Dalia Volkova Character Guide! Get a closer look at our protagonist here: tiny.cc/daliavolkovaguide
