Random person who plays indie games, you are the most important cog in an indie game's success.

Most gamers don't know or care that indies exist.... unless a friend tells them.

Our games succeed because you tell other people you liked our game. Word of mouth is the best marketing there is.

There's a round of GOTY discussion going around, and I realized that a lot of my favourite games this year have been absolute Sicko Picks.

So here's a few games I've loved so far in 2025, starting with a mild one: Babushka's Glitch Dungeon. A scrunkly lil' puzzle-metroidvania with so many fun verbs

Oh hello dearie.. Babushka needs to clean up her big magical cellar. Use hag magic, or just hit stuff with your broom.

I've barely scratched the surface of the games released in October and already there's dozens of things in November I'm already getting excited about.

Videogames: They're kinda cool.

I was putting together a little curator list of Brutalist Megastructure Games on Steam... only to notice that someone else did all the work. There's more than I expected!

The overwhelming number of great games being released and fewer people being around to cover them has meant that some real gems have slipped under the radar.

Case in point, Starstruck: Hands of Time, which is like Bill & Ted in a world made of arts & crafts supplies. Cheap, weird, unique.

Not been doing much recently, mainly just playing video games (mostly Silksong), but I've done a few doodles and stuff too!

I know it's frustrating when lawyers point out when something the administration is doing is not legal. But responding with "the law doesn't matter anymore" is really unhelpful and defeatist. Clarifying the law is important because it reminds us not to comply in advance and to resist and take action

Visa hit me with the "we've given you everything, so we're hanging up now"

But you know what? I just redialed and spent more time on the phone with a different agent.

Payment Processors do not want to hear our opinions, but they're out of luck.

Keep calling, and tell them you're not backing down.

Welp, the wave of stupid finally hit me. I can't even access the Steam store pages for some games which I own, like Fear & Hunger 2, because I need to verify my age.

The only way to verify is by having a credit card. I do not have one - I have a debit card, which is common in the UK.

I am 42.

shout out to the spriters resource for being one of the few sites to do a complete redesign in 2025 that makes it better to use instead of worse. being able to zoom in on sprite sheets and even flip and rotate them and enable a pixel grid without having to download them is extremely useful

Old Soviet joke for today:

A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves.

After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?”

“I’m looking for the obituaries.”

“The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.”

“Not the one I’m looking for.”
