Today on Devtalk! 🎮 The power of a narrative game is the narration… but what if the protagonist barely speaks? Sometimes silence tells the loudest story. 👁️✨ @autoscopia.bsky.social #NarrativeGames #GameDev #Storytelling #IndieGame #GamingCommunity #InteractiveStory #VideoGames

Finally revealing our game! It's called #Crop, and it’s a gritty farming thriller 👀🌱 We’ve teamed up with @11bitstudios.bsky.social to bring it to life, and have poured a lot into it over the past three years. Including our despair at the times we live in.
When you put out a game in the world, and it becomes someone’s favourite game ever… …but they still click the refund button. Maybe just a case of someone processing a loss, while also being broke. Sometimes I’m not sure whether to laugh or cry, but, I get it. ❤️🩹 #aslongasyourehere #indiegames

Appreciated a couple of little moments like these. They're good at capturing the most important sentiments of both positions she's been as the one receiving care and the caretaker.
Played through As Long As You're Here in a sitting and loved it. Really thoughtful approach to portraying a sense of time and place through the perspective of a woman with Alzheimer's disease who also spent much of her life as a caretaker.
We’re so excited to participate in the charity stream tomorrow for dementia research and awareness, Stream to Remember with @richardthornton.com ❤️🩹 We'll do a key giveaway of ‘As Long As You’re Here’ and chat about our personal stories that inspired the game 🍂 #alzheimersawareness#dementia#indiegame
A beautiful article about our game about Alzheimer's in national German newspaper, @zeit.de (!) ♥️ About how games can show you a new perspective, and how our personal stories inspired moments in the game, all while helping us heal ❤️🩹 Now all I dream of is a review in @theguardian.com 🥹🤞
"As Long As You’re Here": Du bist Annie und du vergisst
Wie kann man Alzheimer verständlich machen? Nicht durch Ratgeber. Marlène Delrive hat ein Spiel entwickelt – es ist eins der berührendsten des Jahres geworden.
