Again, immense gratitude to everyone who backed the project! There's still so many tasty things to include in the game if we reach them stretch goals 👀

I can't get over how unreal and mesmerizing the beauty of soviet actors was in the Amphibian Man (1962).

Going into Overdrive mode with plenty of awesome stuff in stretch goals, and really cool tiers still available. Check it out! Massive thanks to all our backers!

Very similar to how Rockstar was paying nothing in corporate tax while receiving government subsidies from the UK www.taxwatchuk.org/reports/gami... How easy is it to get government subsidies for small devs with no clout, I wonder?

Just 7000€ to fund the baseline + playable prototype + reputable people behind the project, at this point it's a no-brainer to chip in

One of our campaign tiers will allow us to put your face in the game: on a magazine cover, a poster, an avatar in the in-game computers Only a handful of these slots will exist, so once they're gone, they're gone! Sign up: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/c... #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #lowpoly

To release your game on Steam, you have to go through an approval process, in which a Valve employee will play your game for a bit. Apparently no such rule exists for Ubisoft games, so they can even forget the build. How interesting... www.pcgamer.com/games/strate...

Ubisoft forgot to make sure the Steam release of Heroes of Might & Magic 3 included the actual game
Oops.

Brands seriously have no idea how to market to their customers. Bc what do you mean I have 10 photos of a toilet bowl from the sides. But not ONE from above to actually see how it flushed. On 99% of plumbing websites! I'm losing my mind.

Japanese was the only language I actually wanted to learn. I had multiple failed attempts over 15+ years. Decided to not give up and try again. And today I finished N5-4 level grammar. In 100 days. Alone. Very proud of myself ☺️ Consider this your cue to brag too.

And so that's a wrap on Dishonored + Knife of Dunwall and Brigmore Witches Damn near perfect games for me, the DLC even slightly more so. Daud (RIP Michael Madsen) and the Whalers are soooo cool.

The X-Files: Deep State finally has its own page on IMDb! Gosh, what an experience developing it. It was my first time running a writers' room, and it really paid off - our players adored the narrative. Such a shame you can't play it anymore, but thankfully there are playthroughs on YouTube.

Years ago I made a thread on Twitter about the history of Chinese & Taiwanese RPGs. Scroll of Taiwu will get an official English release today and leave Early Access after 8 years - IMHO, it's one of the most influential indies of the past decade, so it's a good time to repost & update the thread!🧵
