The new game from @turtlerescuenes.bsky.social is a banger! It looks like a variation of Pac-Man, but nothing could be further from the truth... Level design, enemies, music, graphics, gameplay - everything is incredibly creative. turtlerescuenes.itch.io/packet-nes #nesdev #indienes #nes #homebrew

Reviewed “Mouse P.I. for Hire” on console with controller but switched to mouse (no pun intended) and keyboard today. Although I initially thought the game wasn't for me, I have to say it's way better with mouse/keyboard. I play it fast, so precision is essential. #mousepiforhire #Mouse #indiegame
