Hello #PitchYaGame

This is Alpine Lake, a mountain life sim / innkeeper sim.

Your town is in danger, and through the power of innkeeping you can save it.

Who knew that brewing coffee, scrambling eggs, and photographing a cute duck could have such an impact on people's lives.

My friend @tricko.bsky.social launched his first ever game in early access today! I’ve played it with him and some other devs over the past year, it’s great fun

It’s a cool take on platform/fighter, and it even has online multiplayer!

Crash his servers >:)

more old work! the development progression of the kingdom screen in desktop dungeons rewind. There's a bunch of nice vfx and animation and such in the final version that obviously isn't captured in a still image. You're all missing out.

Uhhhh Pretty Surreal to see Markiplier staring down our little puppet guy last night! Also very fun to watch him read the entire tool tip for the 1000mg bottle.
Markiplier played our game!! youtu.be/uYneVs6PYKE

It's strange and wonderful to see someone I've been watching since I was like, 12, upload a video of a game I worked on.

How far will our little puppet go! So proud of him 🥲
Ayy Mr Magpie gets the Silver Medal from @itch.io for the month of March! Second only to @adamatomic.bsky.social's wonderful Prince of Prussia, which is also great and you should play it.
