Reposted by José Castanheira Casey S. Pumpkins 🎃 @caseyexplosion.bsky.social · 22/11/2024Giving the demo for Extraneum a quick try, and it's rather neat. Reminds me more than a little of Exophobia from earlier this year, except that had a metroidvania slant where this is more oldschool Doomy kinda feeling. Here, give it a go yourselves: store.steampowered.com/app/1999140/... 46512

José Castanheira @zarcattack.bsky.social · 22/11/2024I'm absolutely devastated 💔 Luna, the female dog from my gf family and one of the dogs you can pet in Exophobia, just passed away.

I also signed friends physical copies of Exophobia next to his stand, which made me feel like a celebrity 👀 090
