Meet The Faceless. Armed with n’owt but his own wit and a mask carved from wolfsbone, he scours the land in a bid to extinguish the darkest of terrors.
Where others would hide from the darkness, this vagabond marches willingly into its inky black heart.

Do monsters lurk in the darkness, or do they lurk within us? Find out in our next title — The Tūn-Gāst of Oakshaw — a top-down pixelated folk horror game. Armed with only your wits, can you uncover the secrets buried deep within Oakshaw?

It seems we reached 3.5% of the American population protesting yesterday.
What if we could get those 11 million people…
➡️ Involved in building community resilience and the infrastructure to strike - mutual aid networks, community meals and gardens, tenant unions, childcare networks, resource hubs?

every memorial day I think about what my dad (who is Canadian) has told me since I as a little tiny kid: memorials to those who have died in war should never be a way to glorify dying in war, but rather a reminder why we should try to do everything we can to prevent war from happening to begin with

You're being carried in your environmentally sealed, air conditioned, lazyboy recliner that's playing your favorite music while most often drinking a milkshake gently spiked with uppers.

The air feels heavier now, you know? It's difficult to function in a world where Empathy is called a sin. Where the bad guys are winning a lot of battles. Where you find out entertainers, celebrities, coworkers, friends, and even family support making life worse for others...

The abuser’s classic playbook is to isolate you from your friends, create a sense of helplessness, make it difficult to connect with others and force you to simply think about your survival from one day to the next. We are seeing that playbook applied to the nation as a whole.

Sorry but if you're an ex FAANG designer or whatever and you think the world needs another book titled something like "Design a Life you Love" and you don't plan to mention once the realities of working in a capital-driven market or labor in general... .. .please write about something else entirely

Something I’ve heard a few times lately is some variation of “Why don’t you charge for more of your games? Why do you devalue them like that?”
And like, my dudes, I’m not the one here devaluing them based on their price. Free games hold a lot of value, especially now.

We're running a Patreon campaign to help fund Dreamsettler, the sequel to Hypnospace Outlaw.
Patrons can play a WIP build of one of Dreamsettler's minigames now, and in two weeks we're releasing Dreamsettler's Page Genie.
I look forward to making silly pages together.
