Such a good looking game, easily one of the best of that era.

Read this devlog to see more about what we're bringing to PAX Australia and also see that Nick cruelly included a photo of me wearing sunglasses indoors when we were playing cards five years ago

perhaps the worst kind of bug to find is one that was caused by a decision you made three months ago and were not expecting it to be the root cause of a problem in a completely different system

There is a gameplay-used-for-storytelling moment in Zero Company that was quite literally jaw-dropping. What a fucking game!

Sean 🔜 MIGW @doctorears.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
There is this one little visual detail that I can't get over in Zero Company and it's the holograms of the mission locations whenever you're in a briefing cutscene. They really specifically evoke the kind of low detail 3d photogrammetry scan you might get from something like the app Polycam.

I read A Wizard Of Earthsea for the first time last week. What a good book! Kind of wish that it had been part of my introduction to fantasy when I was growing up, it would have been very formative.

Just rolled credits on The Sinking City 2. Had a great time with it, and I’m very proud of my friend @nshady.bsky.social and his writing work on it! It’s been so fun playing it and seeing all the ways the Frogwares team has levelled up over their last couple games all while in the middle of a war.

We've been doing an environment art pass on the dingy small apartment you live in in GO PHISH. As your in-game stress climbs the room itself shrinks, leaving less and less room for your life in it :( #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #indiedev
an in-development screenshot from GO PHISH, it shows a small apartment with one room. There is a bed, a freestanding wardrobe,  a fridge, and a desk with a laptop and a lamp on it. There is a ceiling fan on a ceiling that is too short to be comfortable.

Fun fact: people so often compare the Citizen Sleeper UI layout to Disco but the game’s presentation of text was equally inspired by the elegant Destiny 2 conversation panel that was used extensively through its many seasons.

Properly playing through Final Fantasy X for the first time and I finally see why people say this is the best of the turn based entries. The system is so ripe for player expression and whilst the voice acting is a bit campy and very “first time we’ve done this” the story is really compelling!
