Recesses on Steam
It's recess. Time to play cards, find your missing friend, discover the meaning of life. The usual 5th grade playground stuff.

man, someone should really make a game about how miserable/hopeless it is to be a kid right now.
maybe wrap the deeper message in a cutesy card game, maybe have fifth graders discuss society/capitalism/human existence on the playground at school...
oh.

Other games: The free demo has one map, one character, un-installs itself after 15 minutes, and we hate you for playing it.
My game: The free demo is pretty much the whole game lmao

For no particular reason, if you're in the mood to play a game that has 5th graders talk about the horrors of modern society, dunk on tech-bro A.I. and team up to take down their crusty old principal tyrant, Recesses may be up your alley!

Why does it feel like every game that comes out has 8,000 mechanics right off the bat and a 5-hour tutorial explaining each one of them in excruciating detail? 🥲

Static-Orb was one of the first cards put in the game!
I wanted cards that could only be done digitally right off the bat, and this one uses different ability pools depending if you use it on your own card (good abilities) or the opponent's (good and bad abilities).

I've always found the psychological difference interesting that new players have between Hellfang and Spikyball.
They both basically do the same thing (take down *one* card, since Spikyball has the max of 9 power), but new players love Hellfang and hate Spikyball 😆

Talking about Recesses cards because way too much thought went into their design😆
Peptalker is everybody's favorite card at first. It emphasizes learning/predicting type-matchups and then, in the mid-game, you realize it's not really worth a slot anymore and drop it. A great training wheels card!

Thinking about making videos like "THE SECRET MEANING IN [book/movie/game title] THAT EVERYONE MISSED!!" but it's just the obvious themes/allegories that the author fully intended.

Love it when you've been trying to figure out how to connect two seemingly unconnectable story threads in your game for weeks... then you just sit down one night and *BAM!* your brain is like oh, just use this perfect idea 😆

You know that kind review you left for an indie game on itch?
The creator read it and it meant the world to them. And they will go on to make more cool stuff because you took the time to say something positive.
Being nice is cool. Keep it up.

I like Stephen King’s short story “The Jaunt” a lot, but I think it ought to be classed as a novella really. It’s longer than you think.

I just noticed that Jimmy And The Pulsating Mass - one of the best indie JRPGs I've ever played - is JUST shy of 500 reviews and the Overwhelmingly Positive rating.
We should make that happen. One of the best Earthbound-inspired games I've played while having its own, very strong identity.

@quest64official.bsky.social I saw during a stream of my game today that I misspelled "brain" as "brian" 😆
I think your posts have subconsciously influenced me. I was going to patch it... but maybe it's better this way??

free game design:
when the game first starts, begin ticking down a timer. give it like 20 hours and label it "judgement" or something. leave it as a small part of the UI at all times. it doesn't even have to do anything

Has *anybody* ever typed the words "besdies" or "charatcer" right on the first try?
