A season is deterministic from its seed, and a save carries every decision you made. If you report a crash I can replay your career to the day it happened. One person, no QA department, so the tooling has to do it. store.steampowered.com/app/5050590

Solo studio, Brooklyn. Small games, built one at a time. Now: Irish Sport Manager. Gaelic football, hurling, camogie, ladies football. Free demo 31 Aug, out January.
Irish Sport Manager 0.33.3: thirty players, none of them on rails. Each at their own pace, football going backwards to go forward, a loose ball stopped and lifted, a clean catch inside the 20 called as a mark. Free demo, Windows and Mac: store.steampowered.com/app/5050590 #GaelicFootball #Hurling
The 2026 rules are in. Two-point arc, two-point frees, kickouts clearing the arc, three-up, the black card, a penalty for the cynical foul on a goal chance, the sin bin. Set up to farm two-pointers and it works. store.steampowered.com/app/5050590
Irish Sport Manager 0.32.0 is up. The commentary says a score a dozen ways now, and hurling and camogie finally sound like themselves. Name your cover for each line and the coach follows it when a man is out. Free demo, Windows and Mac: store.steampowered.com/app/5050590 #GaelicFootball #Hurling
The free demo is out now. A full season in all four codes. Three counties each for football and hurling, one each for camogie and ladies football. store.steampowered.com/app/5050590/... #GAA #Camogie #gamedev

A player's club is fixed at birth. It follows him his whole career, and it's where the next one comes from too. Seven lads from one parish on a county panel isn't a bug. It's most of Ireland. #GAA #GaelicFootball #hurling
Every man's afternoon on one sheet. Rating, score, assists, turnovers, saves. Kept season after season, so in fifteen years you can look up what your new U20 manager did when he was still playing. #GAA #GaelicFootball #hurling #gamedev
Connacht final. Mayo and Galway, 34,805 in, 61 minutes gone. And someone has just walked for a second yellow. You're watching it from the sideline. The whistle hands you back the controls. Free demo on Steam, 31 August. Mayo is one of the counties you can take. #GaelicFootball #Mayo #Galway
Nobody in this game is real. But a player's parish is fixed at birth and follows him his whole career. Scout the club championship and you're scouting the map he grew up on. #GAA #GaelicFootball #indiedev
Hurling isn't football with a stick. Different scoring, different possession, different injuries. All four codes have their own rules and calendar. Football, hurling, camogie, ladies football. Free demo 31 Aug store.steampowered.com/app/5050590 #GAA #Hurling #gamedev
