I've been playing a little bit of the @denkiworks.bsky.social demo of Tanuki: Pon's Summer and it is such a charming little game. The demo alone has been so fun to explore and I have really loved engaging with the characters who feel so unique and funny. Cannot wait for this game to release!

So far I am a big fan of the photographer from @denkiworks.bsky.social Tanuki: Pons summer. Her design is so cool and I really enjoyed her dialogue with Pon. Especially that Pon took issue with her calling their BMX a 'bike' and not that she called them a Racoon.

And we have another piece about Tanuki: Pon's summer! This one was one of my favorites to put together. I loved the idea of a Tanuki behind a bar serving drinks. I must say Pon is very talented.

@sarahmoonen.bsky.social’s Game of Show for Pax East 2025 is Tanuki: Pon’s Summer by @denkiworks.bsky.social. Pon is ready to deliver packages, complete mini games & shred on his BMX bike. It had me at no fall damage & delighted with Tony Hawk controls & themes of fitting in where you are different.

A great piece, also @denkiworks.bsky.social mentioned
“If you’re gonna make indies in Japan, you’re gonna make them in Kyoto,” says one British game developer now living and working in the ancient capital.
In Nintendo’s backyard, foreign indie game devs are thriving
“Of course, we’re all in the shadow of Nintendo, but we’re also here because of Nintendo,” says one British indie game developer.
