Up to 150 total wishlists for Skye's Repose thanks to #SteamNextFest! On the one hand, it stings seeing others with 150 or 1500 in a day, but on the other hand that's still 50% more than I had before. I just wish I could get any feedback or watch someone play it. It's lonely yelling into the void.

Hello there. The view over the house is beautiful from up here. It's so quiet and peaceful. But it is a bit lonely up here... #Indiegame #cozygames #solodev #screenshotSaturday

"'Lord, do not hold this sin against them.' And when he had said this, he fell asleep. And Saul approved of his execution." The Mage of Water has a lesson to learn from this, not all endings must weigh heavily, people can grow. #Indiegame #cozygames #solodev #ShowmeSunday

Hello there I decided to re-make my trailer, starting with re-recording the video of it. But I feel like I forgot something here... Hmm... Oh well, I'm sure it works fine without any terrain. 😸 #Indiegame #cozygames #solodev #TrailerTuesday

"He built his sanctuary like the heights, like the earth that he established forever. He chose David his servant, and took him from the sheep pens." It's comforting to hear that even someone as small as me may have a role to play. #Indiegame #cozygames #solodev #ShowmeSunday

Hello there I got sick earlier, and could barely do anything useful. Apparently I should work while sick more often, this is the most organized I've been taking my old UI, working out a concept, and putting it into practice... #Indiegame #cozygames #solodev #screenshotSaturday

"Let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance" There are times where I wish I had a guiding flame leading me along like in my game. But in real life, this is the best lesson I can get. #Indiegame #cozygames #solodev #ShowmeSunday

Jimlad 42 - Skye's Repose @jimlad42.bsky.social · 11/04/2026

Hello there. Another prettied up UI. In a puzzle exploration game, sometimes it's nice to have a reference book available to offer hints and reminders. Or explain exactly how past puzzles have been solved. #Indiegame #cozygames #solodev #screenshotSaturday

"Whoever heeds life-giving correction, will be at home among the wise. Those who disregard discipline despise themselves, but the one who heeds correction gains understanding." It's a beautiful thing, watching someone be restored home. #Indiegame #cozygames #solodev #ShowmeSunday

Hello there. By the way, my periods of silence are just me being too shy to post on Blue Sky. I'm still alive and working, as seen on Patreon and Discord, I just run out of scheduled posts and find the process of adding more stressful. (Also, I can't schedule posts easily here, so I forget often.)
