It's a daily web game, but every day there are new rules, plus there's a story (and some lovely art) that progresses with each day.

I checked out a game in my backlog yesterday: Quartet.
It's a turn-based RPG that feels straight out of a SNES Final Fantasy, with a killer soundtrack and SUCH good writing. I'm just getting started, but I'm struck by the storytelling in Wallside. 🧵

After an inspiring trip to Melbourne for their Games Week, I realized I want to practice being more vocal about my personal projects
SO: Here’s the latest episode of @geeksandgrounds.bsky.social where I chat with @miladyconfetti.bsky.social about a game that definitely hurts 😮💨

October's game is Mouthwashing, and the episode with @miladyconfetti.bsky.social is LIVE!
The game begins with "I hope this hurts" and it DOES hurt: it also provides much to dig into regarding the capacity for harm and "taking responsibility"
Watch now:
