We recently asked our tribe goblins to make a cookie fit for Jobulle, and they absolutely DELIVERED—just look at these delicious cookies!! 🍪 Thank you to everyone who helped feed a very hungry Jobulle. Sadly, Jobert got 𝘇𝗲𝗿𝗼 cookies out of the deal. Oh well. Maybe next time.

Our launch trailer is entirely in Black and White. Because marketing isn't real, we wanted it to look like a short of the period film.

Happy Friday! What's everyone playing? ● Kalanoro (Review) ● Mr. Sleepy Man (Review) ● The Binding of Isaac (Game Club) ● Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon (Game Club) Had to put The Blood of Dawnwalker to the side for now until I have the time to fully dive into it. Just got a little busy.

I am mostly a retro gamer, but breaking free from my backlog/no new games challenge has been invigorating. These are the games on my docket currently. So much 2026 goodness. I'm about 2/3 of the way through Splatoon Raiders already! From AAAs to indies like @mrsleepyman.bsky.social 💜

Hello, My name is Katie. In March 2026, Will de Renzy-Martin (@willvoice.it) coerced me during a relationship into travelling to and sleeping with him, then the same day dumped and left me alone abroad. He then utilized his fanbase to ostracize me from a friendgroup and spread a false narrative.

So I finished it & it’s now favorite indie game. Artistically, I feel like it was made specifically for me. The writing is hilarious & hits hard when it counts, it has one of the best OSTs I’ve ever heard, it’s just brimming with pure creativity and personality GO BUY THIS GAME!
