Nice to know! Sunless Sea is always on my fave/best lists; together with Fallen London it absolutely blew my mind as to what video game writing was capable of, and I've even managed to convince a few people over the years to pick them up and give them a try 🤟🏻

Good list, but if you replace Silent Hilll 2 with If On A Winter's Night Four Travelers, you'll be saving yourself 70 bucks AND helping out a tiny indie studio at the same time. Available for FREE here + 30% off the optional Supporter Pack! store.steampowered.com/app/1603980/

I’m making a game and I have absolutely no idea how marketing works… should I rent a blimp or something? Are those still a thing? Anyway, in the meantime, here’s the game’s poster, some screenshots… oh, and the Steam page, so you can go wishlist it! Steam page: s.team/a/5127050/

If I were a Disney princess I'd surround myself with squirrels that would eat from my hand and let me rub their bellies, and crows that would scream at rude Germans who make me cry. Happy Monday, sigh.

As a game it can be clunky and frustrating, but the writing, oh the writing!

The frog game was amazing! One of those very very very few titles that stood the test of time decades later when I tried out a Speccy emulator and played all those old games. Most of them I played only for a few minutes out of nostalgia, but that one actually hooked me again!

Yesterday marked exactly FIVE years since we released If On A Winter's Night Four Travelers on Steam. I don't know how we got from "hey, seems we make a good team, let's make a proper game together" to wherever we are now, but I'm glad we took the plunge. Much love, all ♥️

The core mechanic of The Many Sins of House Ocampo is the family tree, which you'll need to put together piece by piece in order to reconstruct the whole story. Find clues, add them to your inventory, and figure out who everyone is, where they belong on the board, how they died, and when 🧠

I'd say something like 90% of my current library is sourced from second hand bookstores and markets, it'd be such a prohibitively expensive hobby otherwise. This one I found on abebooks, though. You gotta snatch up those rare finds wherever they might show up!

Lazy Sunday with one of my favourite short story collections of all time. I still can't believe I managed to bag myself a physical copy! (without having to sell a kidney, that is)

Es una reedición? En casa de Thomas tenemos el ¿original? pero solo lo hemos jugado una vez. Mola, a ver si algún día lo retomamos.

I don't really check the reviews for If On A Winter's Night Four Travelers anymore, but when I do, I still get a bit emotional seeing people enjoying it this much after almost 5 years.

No DLSS 5. Just good art direction.

Yeah, it's definitely a combination of "if you're cool LIKE ME you'll know what movie this is from" and engagement bait to make people ask "what movie is this" in the comments. I'm so done with this stuff, just share what you like and be happy that others can enjoy it too.

I wish I could create a filter so that the algorithm would not show me posts from people who share a screenshot from a movie saying "best movie ever" or "best shot ever" without saying which movie it's from. It's such a petty thing to be annoyed by, but I hate it.

Oh wow, we hit 600 (deleted) wishlists! I guess patience is in short supply these days 😁 Seriously though, thanks to every single one of you who is willing to wait as long as it takes. Without you, making games would be a bit more boring. Cheers! 🥂

Of course you're a Steven Wilson fan haha, don't know why but it fits you perfectly. I can't think of too many pink albums, but I just happened to be listening to this one yesterday!

I don't usually do nostalgia posting, but "music merging with gameplay" just triggered memories of getting high as a fucking kite and playing Rez on the PS2 with my roommates back in like 2005 or 2006. Sigh.

Apparently last night I woke up at some point, wrote "POISONING THE WELL OF ARCHETYPES" on my notes app, and fell asleep again.

In House Ocampo we also have a small group of recurring musicians who appear in several scenes, and those scenes in KRZ were our inspiration! (thank you!)
