Hi #pitchyagame! Excited to announce my new game - Sweep Strike! 💣🗡️ A cartoony roguelike RPG where battles are fought on Minesweeper grids - Uncover moves, avoid mines and build your inventory with a strategy! 💥Wishlist on Steam store.steampowered.com/app/3804170/... #gamedev #indiegame
Finally, I can show what I have been cooking for @zarcattack.bsky.social next game. Here's the Steam Capsule art! 🎨 And also, go wishlist the game (link in the comments⬇️) #indiegames | #sweepstrike
🔥 @zarcattack.bsky.social's #Exophobia is an absolute banger. 🎮 Retro FPS vibes, brutal alien combat, and slick upgrades that make you feel unstoppable. Every corridor is a death trap. Every weapon feels like vengeance. Play it now. Do it.
It's Wednesday, which means tonight's stream is going to be my #Indiegamedev showcase night, and I have my latest video showing off some amazing games youtu.be/nZD7bwxiOw8 that I want to shoutout 🧵

Someone told me Exophobia was appearing in @operagxofficial.bsky.social browser and I had to check it. Feels surreal that something I created is grouped with classic and modern masterpieces of indie games that influenced my path so much 🥹 Thanks @gamemaker.io and happy 25th anniversary! 🎉

Exophobia is kinda like what if Metroid Prime was made in 1993
Giving the demo for Extraneum a quick try, and it's rather neat. Reminds me more than a little of Exophobia from earlier this year, except that had a metroidvania slant where this is more oldschool Doomy kinda feeling. Here, give it a go yourselves: store.steampowered.com/app/1999140/...
Is Exophobia your GOTY for this year? 🤩 Then vote for it in the Steam Awards 2024 👀 It's also 20% off in the Autumn Sale!! store.steampowered.com/app/1189220/...
Post four indie games you think more people should have played.

I'm absolutely devastated 💔 Luna, the female dog from my gf family and one of the dogs you can pet in Exophobia, just passed away. She was a lovely dog, playful and caring, who believed she was the size of a puppy, despite being a big girl. Gone too young, already miss her 😢
You want games? 🎮 Are the rats coming to munch your Switch because you have no games to play? 💜Games on sale for Black Friday! We have SO many games! Ahhhhhh
I have been very inactive since I launched Exophobia, so sorry for the lack of posts! Right now I have just been a bit away from social media while I give more attention to parts of my life I neglected during the game development. It's great that I have been getting followers even like that tho 👀
Had an unforgettable time at DevGAMM Lisbon! Saw old and new friends, attended great talks, met the legend @johnromero.bsky.social and even won the Person of the Year award by Game Dev Lisbon! I'm thankfull for the recognition of my work and how the portuguese community is growing strong together.
I lack words to express the gratitude I've felt the last few days. On Thursday, @whalesandgames.com was awarded Studio of the Year by Game Dev Lisbon. 💡 The next day, Townseek was awarded Best Game from Portugal at the DevGAMM Awards. 🏆 I'm very honoured to celebrate these alongside my team-mates.
