And so you should be proud! A Welsh inspired game of this capacity made by someone outside of Wales is so rare, but so wonderful to see. We need more like it! Da iawn i chi!

Toward Dawn is still 40% off on Steam right now, too!

Seriously if someone ever brings up AI to me in a business meeting ever again I'm afraid I'm just going to unload *all* my fucking feelings on the matter.

Support Devs that don't use AI, help all you can with Indie folks from Buying, sharing and reviewing. Fuck the industry getting gutted.
Amazon is laying off 14,000 people, with the video games division hit in particular, and others in its corporate workforce.

The layoff message to employees highlights how AI will "innovate much faster than ever before".

It's @deviserene.bsky.social 's birthday today! Thank you for making such an amazing game, Toward Dawn!

I urge my followers to please give it a try (there's a demo) and support an incredibly kind and talented indie developer! Carys is such a wonder character.

I'm back at my desk job now, so seeing something like this makes me very happy 😊

I gave all my love and energy to make Toward Dawn, I can only hope that shines through! ✨️
My next adventure is #TowardDawn, a #jrpg billed as a werewolf romance drawn from Welsh mythology. Released back in May by solo dev @deviserene.bsky.social , it seems to have flown under the radar. Let's crack it open and see what's what! #indiegames

Please do wishlist Tales from the #Mabinogion!

This might be the most prominent Welsh mythology-inspired game on the horizon that I can think of.
It's #WishlistWednesday ! Please do add a Wishlist, it's one of the few ways small indie developers have for getting visibility.
Nothing new to share this week, so here's an old clip. Originally a tech test for the surf fx, I ended up keeping the shots in game!

Manawydan fab Llŷr is the Welsh cognate of the Irish sea god, Manannán mac Lir. However, although they share linguistic roots and mythic ancestry, their roles diverage sharply across the two traditions. Notably, Manawydan is mortal, in contrast to Manannán's role as a deity.
