Same town, morning and night. Which one do you like more? devrowinteractive.itch.io/trails-of… #gamedev #indiedev #godot #lowpoly #citybuilder
A walled low-poly Suebian town in warm morning light. A long timber palisade with square towers runs across the front, log houses with pale roofs and chimney smoke stand around a big hall, and green meadow and woods roll away behind.The same town and palisade at night under blue-green moonlight. The hall and houses show warm lit windows and a few torches glow on the grass beside the wall.

Screenshot from a development build of the game "13 Rosas" showing a room decorated with arches and illuminated by a single lamp at the center of the wall. In front of the wall sits an alter with a bouquet of red roses on it. 
On the bottom of the image a black banner holds both the logos of the events "gamescom dev" and "gamescom". 
A pink tag across the image reads "I'll be there" referring to the posters presence at both conferences.

Arbeit, Rente, Gesundheit: Merz & Co. planen den größten Angriff an unseren hart erkämpften Rechten seit der Agenda 2010. Wir sagen: #EsReicht! Komm am 1. Juni mit uns auf die Straße!
Das Sharepic der Partei Die Linke ist in kräftigen Rot-, Orange- und Lilatönen gestaltet und ruft zu Straßenprotesten gegen soziale Missstände auf. Zentral steht der große Slogan: „Es reicht!“ sowie darunter: „Das Leben bezahlbar machen“. Oben im Bild stehen die Schlagworte: „++ Preisexplosion ++ Sozialabbau ++ Rentenklau ++“. In einem lilafarbenen Kreis links heißt es: „Wir gehen auf die Straße!“.

Darunter werden Demonstrationstermine und Orte genannt:

- „Berlin: 1.6., 17:30 Uhr, Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz“
- „Essen: 1.6., 18 Uhr, Viehofer Platz“
- „Hannover: 1.6., 18 Uhr, Ernst-August-Platz“
- „Köln: 1.6., 18.30 Uhr, Rudolfplatz“
- „Lüdenscheid: 1.6., 17 Uhr, Sternplatz“
- „Rosenheim: 1.6., 18 Uhr, Salingarten“
- „Bonn: 2.6., 17:30 Uhr, Friedensplatz“
- „Hamburg: 6.6., 12:45 Uhr, Gänsemarkt“
- „Freiburg: 13.6., 14 Uhr, tba“
- „Passau: 15.6., 18 Uhr, tba“
