If your elevator pitch is "Imagine the love-child of Iron Lung and Mouthwashing. And also a rabbit." there's little I can do but buy your game and stream it. I bought Off Black Creations' #MOLE three weeks ago. Guess when I'll stream it? That's right, it's now, over at www.twitch.tv/melancholygeek

Do it. It's worth it.

I need 19 more subs on the Tubes of You

None of us are on your side Sandy. Especially when you double down like this. Please stop.

I have a soft spot for factory/conveyor belt anomaly horror games, they push all the right buttons for me. What I do not really like is anything having to do with dolls, they give me the creeps. So, what do we do tonight? Play #Dollmare of course, starting now, over at www.twitch.tv/melancholygeek

Holidays are over and we are back, and with a bang! Or rather, a staple. A Skin Staple. Well, what I'm saying is, we're playing #TheSkinStapler by @taintedpactgames.bsky.social. And for all I know, this is going to be magnificent. Let's start, now, over at www.twitch.tv/melancholygeek

I've been expecting you... It's been foretold, by DHL Sendungsverfolgung! #SilentHill #WhiteWhale

I can surely see how people might finish this game in a few hours, but with so much cool stuff to discover, and our habit to indulge especially in readables, looks like #DevilsHideout is taking us two streams. Of which the second is starting now, over at www.twitch.tv/melancholygeek

So this is it. 🥲 7pm BST tonight over on Twitch.

The founders will the eternal id mom Miss Donna! #quakecon #idsoftware #doom

Here's an idea: Let's play a game that *doesn't* end in total heartbreak and devastation for once. How about it? Here's hoping @cosmicvoidonline.bsky.social's #DevilsHideout is such a game. I mean, it has pixels, pixels are cute, right? Right? Let's start, now, over at www.twitch.tv/melancholygeek

Steam Cyberpunk Fest is here and Mala Petaka is currently 35% off until August 10! Get it now if you haven't!! . Mala Petaka Steam page: store.steampowered.com/app/2104460/... . #MalaPetakaFPS #BoomerShooter #RetroFPS #indiegame #UZDoom #GZDoom #Pixelart #Chiptune

When we played #FranBow by @killmondaygames.bsky.social last year, we were endeared, devastated, touched, disgusted and relieved. In other words, it was quite the ride. Are you ready for another? Because we are starting #LittleMisfortune, now, over at www.twitch.tv/melancholygeek

Should the rumored things come to pass, at least make them optional and opt-out by default #Twitch twitch.uservoice.com/forums/92338...

Here's a little PSA for all you gamedevs out there: If you use Vortex AI (or any LLM for that matter) for your promo work, that's a 100% surefire way I'll never touch your game with a ten foot pole. Fuck you very much, "Michael".

We had a great time with #LostinVivo a time back and fell in love with #Lavender's demo, so it's time to check developer #KIRA 's back catalog on today's itch.io, tast.io Saturda...io? Intrigued? Well, come on and join us then, now, over at www.twitch.tv/melancholygeek

it's finally here - double the game modes, double the axes, double the fun! play IVOR's brand new demo now and let us know what you think - find it on Steam and itchio NOW! Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3033980/... Itchio: moonmusegames.itch.io/ivor

Finally gotten around to watch #Longlegs yesterday, and while I can see how some people might feel Nic Cage's acting "ruined" the mood for them, for me his over-the-top style was spot on for the role. Also absolute kudos to Maika Monroe and the rest of tha cast. What a wonderfully weird ride.

UZDoom will never. /NEVER/. Have a single byte of vibecoded slop in it I fucking promise

It really sucks when someone you were following for their work in the retro scene turns out to be big on AI and using it in all their projects. That instantly kills any and all interest in anything they ever make.

We will finish #SubversiveMemories today and I am as of yet unsure if it's a story about resistance in a dictatorship wrapped in a survival horror game or the other way around. But I do know that I'm completely invested in the story and need to see the end. Now, over at www.twitch.tv/melancholygeek

Rarely does a game make me fall into a wikipedia rabbit hole like #SubversiveMemories did regarding the military dictatorship in #Brazil in the 1960s to 80s. Don't get me wrong, it is a great horror game, but boy is it rich with lore. Let's find out more, now, over at www.twitch.tv/melancholygeek

We're back to a developer deep-dive in today's itch.io, tast.io Saturda...io?! We're checking out #Psalm 2 co-developer #N4bA's catalog full of dark hallways and abandoned places. Care to join? Because we're starting now, over at www.twitch.tv/melancholygeek

I remember being super intrigued by @southwardstudio.bsky.social's #SubversiveMemories' demo with its "Resi meets Alan Wake" gameplay and entirely unique setting (and wrote as much back in Issue #3 of @fearzinemagazine.com). Let's check out the full game, now, over at www.twitch.tv/melancholygeek
