Steam Has Become TikTok
I’ve been thinking a lot about the Steam ecosystem. When we released our first game, Curious Expedition 1, back in 2014, it was a completely different world.

It's quiet now. The city's heartbeat is steady. Just the hum of trains and what's left of my thoughts.

I just finished this up in a SmArtSchool mentorship class with Sam Weber. 😊 The assignment was to create an illustration with an original character, and I went with my current D&D character 😅
A woman with a shaved head in gold armor stands among dark briars. The briar thorns pierce her armor and skin in a few places, and she hangs her head in a defeated posture.

Our first Ludum Dare comes to an end :)
There is still some time left, but I think our game is good enough at this point.

Thank you @katarzynahaptas.bsky.social <3

Please take a look and leave some feedback!

I've spent the last 10 days completely reworking interaction system in Poof! Cleaning Services.
My goal was to eliminate the tech debt from the prototyping stage and introduce some cool new features, such as context placement, which you can see in the GIF.

After many months of hard work the game is finally ready for you to try out!

✨ Poof! Cleaning Services is a cozy game about tidying up messy rooms, uncovering little stories, and connecting with people through the items they leave behind.

Reposts and comments are the nicest thing you can do for exactly 0 money.

You are not annoying if you go through someone's gallery and Like + RT everything.
You may not be able to support an artist financially but a follower of yours might.

✨ HOW TO: support artists for $0.00 ✨

- leave a like!
- repost their work - more eyes!!
- comment on their posts! (an emoji goes a long way!)

all of this means so much to artists and helps immensely!! just a reminder that support does NOT always have to be financial 🥰🤍✨
