Okay, I'm testing the waters. Five slots for now, but commissions are here! I went with kofi, because they take a lot of the headaches out of organising it. I have a fairly large range of things on offer, so hopefully something catches your eye! ko-fi.com/evegoldenwoo...

It's very hard to persuade anyone to read a self-published book, especially from a no-name author like me. If we can get it onto a shortlist here it could make a real difference, and your vote has an impact towards that which would be very much appreciated.

What is Virtue's Heaven? Is it an "Evil Game"? Is it an attempt at expressing our current day's malaise in an action platformer? Or is it "not a good metroidvania" with a final act that is "just weird"?
Whatever the case, it definitely is 20% off on Steam!

While I was half watching The Game Awards I finished a thread of 50 indie game recommendations. FIFTY! That's as many as five tens. And that's terrible.
But seriously, I do want to impart something. There's a whole world of games out there, far beyond what's represented at the show, just as worthy.

And at 50 it's NINE SOLS! I'm ending on a high, Red Candle's masterpiece, I cannot recommend it highly enough, the Sekiro inspired combat is immensely good, the bosses are some of the best I've seen, it's hitting on Hollow Knight level of good, and the story and writing are top tier.
