Gus Thomas @gusthomasgames.com · 25/11/2025I think the first one is Kaizen: A Factory Story! It's a really cool looking puzzley factory automation game with serious narrative hooks. Haven't played it myself yet, but I have heard really great things. 021
Gus Thomas @gusthomasgames.com · 29/10/2025This isn't to contradict anything obv, I LOVE little sibling mode in games. Also, Nintendo still killing it here with Pauline mode in the new Donkey Kong game. They will always go the extra mile to make sure a child can enjoy it... as long as they're able bodied. Still one of their worst faults. 120
Gus Thomas @gusthomasgames.com · 29/10/2025I would fight with others at school about how Wind Waker was the best Zelda game having only walked around in the tutorial island, and I think thats great! I had a very real experience with that game 110
Gus Thomas @gusthomasgames.com · 29/10/2025Mario galaxy did this so good! Although, funnily enough, as a YOUNG kid I spent most of my time watching my older sibling play games, but in the best possible sense. I think sitting someone who's playing a game is often enough of a shared experience for me! 110
Gus Thomas @gusthomasgames.com · 09/08/2025I finally got to show off what I've been a lead programmer on, Auragami! It's been an incredible 8 months working on this with the team, and I am extremely proud of the work that we've done. If you have a VR headset, please check it out and let me know what you think! teamauragami.itch.io/auragami 020

Gus Thomas @gusthomasgames.com · 11/02/2025reminds me of what epic did with the assets from Paragon! quite a few games have been made from that if i remember correctly 020

Reposted by Gus ThomasKyle Cocina @kylecocina.com · 02/08/2024Y'all, I've spent the entirety of the year alongside a very dedicated group of students to make our own student-led game. It's been a trial and an incredible experience!

Gus Thomas @gusthomasgames.com · 07/07/2024Believed in this so hard I was going to repost before I realized that would be to exclusively you and Kyle.. lol 010
Gus Thomas @gusthomasgames.com · 25/06/2024I think it can work, even in this case, with more of a suspend system. I am all for building tension with limited checkpoints, but playing a game like that and not being able to exit without losing progress is can be a large frustration. 100
