Someone asked me what my favorite Armor Games Studios game is… and I said SOLAS 128 by @amicableanimal.bsky.social (I love all our games though. Like children.) You can get SOLAS + 6 other great games all while helping to support the @eff.org www.humblebundle.com/games/progra...

It's not even 2pm and today has been a wild day: - Got threatened with a lawsuit by an AI agent - Got snapped at by support for a bowling website for reporting bugs - Got emailed about an Epstein Island video game (made by AI). With an affiliate program! Might be enough internet for today.

Tasselfoot @tasselfoot.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Devs. I'm BEGGING you. On Steam... submit your game build for review AT LEAST 3 weeks before release. It does not have to be Gold! About once a week I see a game unable to release on its release date because it's still under review.

020

Tasselfoot @tasselfoot.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Most of the game submissions we receive these days are AI. That sucks. If you are a dev with a non-AI web-playable game/demo and want 10,000 people to play it, submit to mygame[at]armorgames[dot]com! Possible licensing up to $250 as well!

Thanks to all the devs leaving "chatgpt.site" in the URL for their game submissions. Makes it REALLY easy to auto-reject them.

Hey GliaCloud. I'd really rather you DIDN'T email us 5 times at once. Thanks and kindly piss off.

Tasselfoot @tasselfoot.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

This one is a Steam issue, not the game's... where it reads the space + number as alphabetically before the colon. Talos Principle 1's remake has a similar issue, displaying after Talos Pinciple 2.

Tasselfoot @tasselfoot.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

Display order in Steam Library is important! Games in a franchise need to have consistency in naming so they don't look like shit (2 bad examples provided). For GemCraft Legacy Collection, I made sure this was done correctly! Doesn't that look good? What're other examples of this done well/poorly?

Screenshot of Bloons TD 6 and Bloons TD5 from Steam Library. Because of inconsistent naming, 6 appears before 5 in the Library.

Screenshot of Brothers and Brothers Remake in Steam Library, with different formatting, so it is inconsistent and looks bad.

If there is a game you love, tell the devs. This shit just made my month.

Has anyone ever done a speedrun inside another speedrun? I just had the funniest idea: In Big Walk, there are blorbs that require waiting in a locked room for 5 and 30 minutes, respectively. During that period... runners could speedrun Goose Game any% and 100% with plenty of time to spare.

Hello new people! I'm Tass. I do a million different things for the Armor Games website and Armor Games Studios publishing. I also post about achievement hunting, bowling, and movies. I'm a NO on genAI and genocide. YES on trans rights.

Tasselfoot @tasselfoot.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

Dev: I made this game using AI. Me: We don’t allow genAI games on Armor. Dev: Is there any explanation? Me: No. We don’t allow genAI games. Dev: Don’t be rude. and… scene.

New problem... sales of the bundle ($80 for 14 games) don't get their revenue broken down and assigned per-game in Itch's backend. So now I have to manually do that. Guess we'll never bundle on Itch again, if we do ever run another sale.

040

Tasselfoot @tasselfoot.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

We ran our first publisher sale on @itch.io. This was the first time any of our 14 games on Itch went on sale in the past FIVE YEARS. And we made a grand total of $244. This is why we don't release on Itch anymore, and hadn't put our games on sale there in years.

I would really like to run a games industry Video Game Trivia night, but have no idea where to promote it. I have half a dozen quizzes written already from running events for Armor over the years. Philly style quizzo... 5 rounds, bonuses, music. Good times had by most. Maybe prizes?

This is how artists survived for hundreds of years... finding a wealthy patron who paid them to just... make art. Sculptors, Painters, Musicians, etc. Why not bring that back? Hyped for Thimbleweek Park 2.

Hey. Don't do this? Like, if this person had called out a specific game. And made it clear they're a huge fan but couldn't afford the game? Probably would give them the key. I want people playing our games. But, uh. Not this.

Ok. Big Walk 100%'d. I really want to talk about some of the puzzles and the game design. Waiting impatiently until an appropriate length of time has passed before I can do spoilers.

Congrats to @househouse.com on the Big Walk launch! Got a chance to play it early, rolled credits over the weekend, and stayed up to 3am last night trying to 100% (and failing, by 1 puzzle stumping us). Really awesome experience that will stick with me!

Passed 2000 hours on Steam for the year. About 700 hours of that is idle time in Ropuka, Bongo Cat, and Fracture Field... but ~1300 is active play. 26% of my total 2026 has been spent gaming on Steam. Is that good or bad?

With Signy & Mino coming out in 10 days, we're starting to get key scammer emails. And they're getting more sophisticated: - Real Twitch accounts - 10k+ follwers - Matching email listed in About - None are partnered - Few/no recent streams - No cam - Botted comments - Similarly worded outreach

Finished a game, and noticed its save file is 560MB. Absolutely wild. It's saving every level as a 4K PNG. Hey devs? Don't do this.
