Drywall Eating Simulator and 126 other games are in this bundle that's for a worthy cause of helping out of work game devs - get and play the game that Todd and Aaron sued us over (posted from my cell toilet)
Todd and Aaron's Game Of The Year Awards (from Mega64) giving Drywall Eating Simulator the "Game our lawyers are looking into" award.

In my comedy game Drywall Eating Simulator, I had a minigame where players had to clean the bathrooms of a retail store as a gag. Everything I was coming up with was feeling really tedious and flat, so I just replaced the whole minigame with a "censorship" gag and called it a day.

They did an amazing job with the character art too (building off of @christapaolucci.com's early work!) But I really appreciate them as someone who I'm able to bounce ideas/designs/techniques off of and who is really smart and thoughtful about the work they do. Thats all, Naud is the best lol.

I think this is one of my best jokes in this game.
Screenshot from Drywall Eating Simulator, a lit-up art piece on a wall that says "placeholder" against a pink background over and over.The placard for "Placeholder"

Placeholder

Unknown (2019)

An intentionally mysterious meta-work. It asks the viewer to think about the purpose of a placeholder. What need is it actually filing? Did the artist intend to actually replace this simple graphic and text with a "greater" work? Or is its submission a statement into itself, that the only purpose for this art is to fill negative space? The artist was kept anonymous as a bid to keep the focus entirely on the piece itself.

@chard.bsky.social and I started @peripheralplaybox.com about a year ago now... It's been a weird, stressful journey but the fact we got this far with a game that we only started concepting in March (!) and looking at releasing it 8 months later is something we're proud of.

(Spoilers I guess lol) One of the things we didn't really talk about, which honestly was my favorite part of the game that I was amazed we managed to pull off, was the final level entering "cyberspace" where we fit in 3 different retro computer aesthetics in.
