Tis the season for indie game rec threads, and I'm no exception.

Here's a bunch of games I absolutely love that are in the Steam Sale and are 100% worth picking up:

Enjoying my annual Winter Solstice tradition of 355 days’ worth of Monster, Celsius, Liquid Death Energy, and other caffeinated substances crashing down all at once.

G’morning to all the cold, wet noses from all the good pups out there.

The whiplash seeing a game I worked on hit my timeline in this fashion.

I've been working on a game pitch and story dear to me, "ENGINE ANGEL", with the team at Ivy Road!

We're still seeking funding, but in the meantime I wanted everyone to still be able to share the work they've done. I'll be sharing more as well as reposting any of the team's posts so stay tuned!

One thing I’ll mention about the IGAs tonight: my closing remarks were very much inspired by Soupy from The Wonder Years.

Taking a breather from final IGAs prep and this post popped into mind.

Despite my intentions, I completely failed at taking better care of myself. It’s been a rough year. Both my brain and body are severely feeling it. But I’m promising myself right now that I’ll do better moving forward.
New Year’s resolution? Teaching myself how to take it easy and not work myself to death.
