Did I mention that we were taking care of the French localization of Beastieball? I've been a huge fan of @greg.style since the days of Sling It, so I'm really glad to have the opportunity to work on one of his games at long last! It's huge, though, so it won't be ready before a few months...

Our good friend @loekalization.bsky.social wrote a great blog post about the localization process of Mina the Hollower and some of the challenges this project threw at us. Well worth reading if you're interested in the process.

"La VF est incroyable." That is what a French critic wrote about the localization of Mina the Hollower. We were trying to be invisible. He called us incredible instead.

A Doctor Who announcement, but probably not the one you were expecting. SYLVESTER MCCOY is the narrator for Forest of Deceit, our new Jackbox-esque game about betraying your friends. The 7th Dr Who himself! Radagast in The Hobbit! Demo dropping JUNE 15TH on Steam!

Almost ten years ago, we worked on the enchanting AER Memories of Old. It's a game that's very close to my heart and I still find myself booting it up regularly just to dive into its cozy atmosphere. Robin's new project is in the work, and we'll keep a close eye on it. 😍

4 years ago we set up our studio @bloomandgloom.bsky.social. Now we are 10 people, and announce our first game Into the Wind! Check it out (and wishlist if you want to) on Steam here: store.steampowered.com/app/2843060 #indiegame #gamedev #intothewindgame #indiedev

I'm getting strong Dustborn vibes from this (road trip, narrative driven, political message...), which is an excellent thing in my book. The Pixel Hunt has consistently delivered high-quality thought-provoking games in the past, I'm sure this one will soon be added to the list... 👍

Here's the official revel trailer for Ithaca, our road-trip RPG about climate resistance. The world is burning. There’s a hostage in your trunk. How far will you go? If you'd like to play this one day, please consider backing the project on Kickstarter: www.kickstarter.com/projects/ith...
