Currently on day two of facilitating a workshop for educators about gaming & gaming culture at a theatre education conference in rural Hesse — everybody seems to be having fun. Plus: The event‘s taking place in an actual castle, which is always a plus! 😉

On top of everything else that went well, it was lovely to catch glimpses of people playing my games last Saturday — among them an actual videogame journalist (cheers for your time & kind words, @falafelkid.bsky.social!)!! #madeindreams #indiegames #gamedev

Oh, hey, looks like we'll be doing that little gaming festival thing again here in #osnabrück! On August 28th and 29th, to be precise. That'll be fun! Check it out here: www.lag-jugend-und-film.de/projekte/gam...

I've been spending a bit more time on a possible de-make of my #MadeInDreams #Cyberpunk game ][ REMEMBER in @whimtale.bsky.social -- and man, Whimtale is just a lot of fun to mess around with! It's also hilarious how similar the actual programming feels to Dreams. I'm right at home! 😅

I‘ve begun to assemble the different parts of my game CITADEL into what will hopefully turn into the COMPLETE game later this year! I‘ve been working on this project for over 5 years & in that time, the Citadel has become a pretty vast place, if I do say so myself #MadeInDreams #indiegame #DreamsPS5

A Pixelart Mining Game with an interesting camera view where you have to dig down into a planet to find and lift the valuable planet core to sell it for profit. #PitchYaGame

Time to #PitchYaGame again! Here‘s my most recent project: „CITADEL - Act Three“ is an exploration-driven adventure inspired by games from Team Ico or Giant Squid. Alongside the previous 2 CITADEL chapters, it‘s available to anyone with access to Dreams on PlayStation 4/5 #madeindreams #indiegame

I've posted a slightly longer eulogy about John Blanche on the old tabletop blog -- it just seemed like the right thing to do, and I had to put it down somewhere. Long live Blanchitsu! 🖤 eternalhunt.wordpress.com/2026/06/04/j...

John Blanche – In Memoriam
Today’s update happens for one of the worst possible reasons: I learned yesterday that John Blanche had passed away, and I am honestly heartbroken! I am not even sure where to begin with this…

I just learned that John Blanche had passed away & am heartbroken! His art was such a beacon in the tabletop hobby, all the way from HeroQuest to his immeasurable contributions to 40k & INQ28! I was fortunate enough to get to talk to him a few times & he was such a great guy, too. What a loss! 🖤

MOTORSLICE is one of my favourite 2026 gaming experiences so far: The particular blend of stunning vistas, exploration and - sometimes fiendishly difficult - platforming make it completely irresistible. It can a bit finicky (& fanservice-y) at times. Still, brilliant fun! @regularstudio.bsky.social

Stefan Berendes @schreppybroepke.bsky.social · 15/05/2026
I'm having a great time playing through @regularstudio.bsky.social's MOTORSLICE at the moment! Both the visual style and platforming are very much my cup of tea! The Shadow of the Colossus vibes are also quite appreciated! 😉

Oh, in case anyone's interested, here's the little "Making Of" feature I created for my recently released game project "CITADEL - Act Three": Something I mostly threw together on a whim, but it was fun to make! Includes some light spoilers! The game is out now in #DreamsPS5 #MadeInDreams #DreamsPS5

My favourite part of this get together with @lhaasis.bsky.social & @fnwdhs.bsky.social is the fact that we actually have three full heads of hair between us 😂 Seriously, though — what an excellent chance to meet, chat & network at the recent #CrossMediaCamp in Wolfenbüttel! 👍

Really happy to see "CITADEL - Act One", the 1st part of my bigger project "CITADEL", reach 1,000 thumbs up after years and years! 😃 I realise this isn't particularly impressive, but I am still proud of the old chestnut for having passed this particular milestone! #MadeInDreams #DreamsPS4 #DreamsPS5

In honour of #FinalFantasyXII‘s 20th birthday, here‘s one of my favourite moments from the game: The Judges were such a cool element, and the politicking & powerplay behind the scenes, so typical of @yazzmat.bsky.social‘s stories, truly made this feel like an Ivalice game! youtu.be/7U1fyLwyzY0

Really had a blast at today‘s local game exhibition! Two people played the entire way (~1 hour) through „CITADEL -Act Three“, a few more almost made it. Lots of fantastic feedback — and some absolutely lovely games from everyone involved! #gamedev #MadeInDreams #Indiegamedev
