Instead of reading this article, you could play my 20-hour game about getting a demon's help to go no contact with your parents. Reviews have described it as realistic! Physically nauseating! Suprisingly hopeful! Peak yuri! No one is saying all that about WSJ. s.team/a/2271270/

If you want to see indie projects succeed, you have to spearhead the support for them. Talk openly about other people’s work and how much you like it, draw fanart, reshare content about the project, send it to a friend, leave comments on every update, donate money, etc.

A screenshot from The Left Eye, a visual novel. The image is in monochrome but with a purple tint.

Two characters are leaning back on the pillows of a double bed. On the left is a short, chubby young man holding a cigarette. He is wearing a sports coat and sweater vest and looking annoyed. To his right is an older woman with black hair and a patch over her left eye, reclining with her head tilted up and her arms behind her head. She is wearing a coat and scarf. 

The text box takes up the lower quarter of the screen and identifies the speaker as Emile, the man on the left. He is saying: “So when were you going to tell me about that bastard guard in Folsom?”A screenshot from The Left Eye, a visual novel. The image is in monochrome but with a purple tint.

Two characters are viewed from behind, sitting on a bench in a park. They are sitting in a strongly-lit patch of sunlight filtering through the leaves of the trees. The man to the left is shorter with curly hair, and the man to the right is taller and thinner with slicked-back hair. 

The text box takes up the lower quarter of the screen. A line of narration says: “I wonder if he was unhappy.”A screenshot from The Left Eye, a visual novel. The image is in monochrome but with a purple tint.

A letterboxed vignette of an older man’s face is shown over a darkened office background. He is holding a 1920s phone receiver to his ear. A line of dialogue below the image says: “You know how it is. Business.”A screenshot from The Left Eye, a visual novel. The image is in monochrome but with a purple tint.

A man and woman are shown in a bar. The woman stands to the left. She has her hair tied up in a bun, and is wearing a necklace, a dark dress, and white gloves. She has her hands raised as though explaining something, and has a serious expression. To the left is a man with neat, wavy hair in a suit. He is wearing glasses and looks irritable. 

The text box takes up the lower quarter of the screen and identifies the speaker as Annabelle, the woman on the left. She is saying: “You’re about to buy the Rose of Florence for a song.”

Fun fact: you can get Emile to read out the content warnings for #TheLeftEye if you're into diegesis, or show them all at once if you'd rather see them all written out neatly! #wishlistwednesday #vndev #indiedev #gamedev #a11y #steam
A screenshot from a visual novel, The Left Eye. A short, chubby man in a tuxedo is standing in the centre of the screen with a theatre curtain behind him. The dialogue box identifies him as Emile, and he is saying: "We can get into more detail, or get back to tonight's entertainment." There are two dialogue choices in the center: "More detail" and "That's enough". A button in the top-right corner reads "show all warnings". The image is in monochrome with a slight cool pink tint.

I released my gay horror game last month! Unfortunately, despite sending over 100 emails, no one covered it 😅 And despite a strong start, since it's free, Steam quickly buried it, so it now has almost zero traffic. It would mean a lot if you'd check it out and share it! It's truly my life's work 🙏

Time for #ScreenshotSaturday! And time for a peek at the first scene of #TheLeftEye episode 4! Emile's getting close to pulling off his audacious con, and all he has to do now is broker the sale of an absurdly large and possibly cursed diamond... #vndev #indiedev #justemilethings #havinganormaltime
A title card for episode 4 of The Left Eye. The background is black, and there is a thin white border around the edge of the screen. In each corner is a stylised fishhook with a sunburst pattern around it. The text in the center reads "THE LEFT EYE / EPISODE FOUR: THE HOOK".A screenshot from a visual novel. Three men are standing in a drawing room. From left to right: Clarence, a tall man in a dark suit, with short wavy hair and an angry expression; Emile, a shorter, chubby man with curly hair, wearing a light sports jacket, giving Clarence the side eye; and Alex, a tall man in a light suit with slicked-back hair, wearing a light suit and glaring angrily. The UI takes up the bottom quarter of the screen and identifies the speaker as Emile. He is saying "Boys, boys, settle down. What if we got a valuation from someone who isn't working for Clarence?"

Felted a patch for a local pride quilt, with translated lyrics from 1920s gay liberation song “Das Lila Lied”. Working on The Left Eye reminds me that not only queerness itself, but queer also identity, community, and activism are centuries old 🌈🏳️‍⚧️🪻 #lgbtq #queerhistory #pride #felting #queer #lgbt

Emile is always working on the big score but he’s never above a bit of petty theft… In episode 3 of #thelefteye you may be able to relieve Clarence of his tie pin if you play your cards right 👀 #screeshotsaturday #vn #gamedev #indiegame #begaydocrime
A screenshot of The Left Eye, a visual novel. There are three characters on the screen. In the foreground and to the left is a tall man with a chiselled face and round glasses with a diamond tie pin. Next to him is a short, chubby man with curly hair, looking annoyed. In the background to the right is a young woman who is slightly out of focus, also looking annoyed. The dialogue box takes up the bottom quarter of the screen and reads: “If I just brush past him as I return my glass…”. There are two dialogue choices in the middle of the screen. The top one reads “He won’t even notice that it’s gone”, and the second reads “It’s not worth the risk”.

Weird trans people on the internet will create stories that institutional media companies are too chickenshit to ever try, and that's just how it's going to be

Genuinely one of my favorite scenes from #miraneko. @ranan-culus.bsky.social's ability to make such fun compositions for our #visualnovel is amazing. They look so cute and it was a total delight animating everything with renpy! #gamedev #screenshotwednesday #vndev #kemonomimi
