galley.house might be the best domain I've ever bought. It's just so short and easy to remember. It also works as the.incident.at.galley.house but the rest of the team told me that was a bad URL. (our awesome website was designed by @louis-andre.net)
The Incident at Galley House
On Sunday the 7th of March, 1936, a group of locals made their way up the long, muddy track to Galley House. As far as any of them knew, the house had stood empty for decades. Inside, they discovered ...

Thrilled to see all the positive responses to @galleyhouse.bsky.social! It was wonderful working as the Voice & Casting Director on this unique game. Huge thanks to @eviltrout.com & team for trusting me with the dialogue and congrats to our amazing cast for their committed performances #indiedev
The Incident at Galley House is a must-play
Honored to say that I voiced a character in The Incident at Galley House, the latest deduction mystery game from the team behind The Roottrees Are Dead, @eviltrout.com ! Play it now to discover who I am… 👀🔎🎙️
MYSTERY FANS: The Incident at Galley House is out now -- this is the game built out of Type Help, which was a huge inspiration for us in crafting TR-49. That's why we've teamed up with @eviltrout.com to bundle both games (but that means, since YOU already bought ours, you get an instant discount!)

We released The Incident at Galley House a week ago, and it's been a wild ride: * Overwhelmingly Positive on Steam in 48 hours * We recouped our entire development budget * At peak, 2500 people were playing at the same time!! Thanks to all the detectives out there for making it a big success.
Absolutely hooked on The Incident at Galley House. Genuine GOTY stuff. Has the potential to be a really annoying "don't look anything up about it just play it!"-style recommendation to people.
Sadly, the entire audio team at ZA/UM is being made redundant as part of the layoffs. If you're looking (or expect to be looking) for Sound Designers or Tech Sound Designers, please don't hesitate in reaching out to @eliforster.bsky.social, @missgameaudio.bsky.social and @soundbear.bsky.social
I just rolled credits (and 100%-ed) The Incident at Galley House. I wasn't even halfway through last night, and there were some real 🤯 moments after that. What an incredibly well constructed game. Great voice performances too. I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being my GOTY.
The Incident at Galley House is absolutely my jam. It's a murder mystery narrative deduction game. If you liked Her Story or Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective or Return of the Obra Dinn or anything in that vein, you're gonna love this. store.steampowered.com/app/3641000/...

My heart sinks a little when I see indie dev promoted as an answer to layoffs. This space is always a bloodbath. But the shift is brutal. AAA devs switching to indie dev can be like folks from NYC trying to live in Paleolithic Earth. Even AAA devs moving to Triple-I can be a slow motion tragedy.
Phew, I knew this would be a rare tangle with "the feels" but oof and grrrrr and ahhhh is the only appropriate review of this stunning piece of real life story telling. More people need to share their stories like this. Amazing work by @alyxjones.bsky.social and @silverscriptgames.bsky.social ♥️
good to know: the etymology of weird coming from "having power to control fate," old english. so if you get called weird all the time because you don’t/can’t fit in, its because you control your own fate. ❤️🩹 www.etymonline.com/word/weird

The first warning arrived on a Tuesday morning, six weeks after consultants advised moving from dependency on six hundred small excel scripts - and nobody at Zenith Ledger Advisory paid much attention. It appeared in the system dashboard between routine audit notifications and a maintenance reminder
I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️🌈💖
Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.

Over a year ago, I spoke with @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social about Dreams on a Pillow for a piece that was killed before it could be published.
