Hey, I'm Julián and I'm a game developer who loves personal, experimental and weird games.
Previously I made Promesa and Cuccchi and right now I'm working on a new thing from which I'll be sharing screenshots in the near future ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

There is one highly unnerving GIF in this Kickstarter that has sold me on Abide: an immaculately uncanny therapy room populated with @king-spooner.bsky.social's creepy doll people.
I'd pledge if I didn't hope to cover it journalistically.
