Blind Faith by Sleepdevrived
PSX Horror Game inspired by doomed cults and Gothic Americana.
sleepdevrived.itch.io
My newest game is out! Blind Faith is a short PSX-Style horror adventure game about doomed cults and gothic Americana.
20 years ago, a cult vanished. Search for a missing person in their old house.
But watch out. The cultists are gone, but something remained.

1. New Zealand's right-wing govt has banned new prescriptions of puberty blockers in a major concession to its far-right flank.
The move was to be announced by the health minister, but the far-right NZ First preempted it, calling it a "win in the war on woke."

If you're looking for kickass but often underlit games, I can recommend looking at game award nominations from different nations and regions. There's always something fun and innovative
This year's Dutch Game Awards has Grunn, Microtopia and RiftRiff as best game nomination. All very indie & great!

Steam Controller
Steam Machine
Steam Frame.

When people talk about the excesses of MeToo, they have to lie, because the reality is that there was no massive social reckoning forcing people to believe survivors or hold perpetrators accountable. In fact, there has been a significant backsliding and new punishments in rejection of MeToo
