Expedition 33 is amazing. The soundtrack, the voice acting, the character's eye movements and expressions, goosebump inducing conversations. A work of art and a labor of passion.
SCHiM best art direction at Debug awards 🤩🏆
Going home with three of these beauties. Will hand them over to the real winners soon, alongside the special edition of DEBUG #008 which features the top 100 best indies of 2024 😁
We've just announced our new game Town to City! It's a gorgeous voxel city builder management game thingy!

I love these wrapped thingies, go Steam! And apparently I like Euro Truck Simulator 2 more than I thought. I like to believe it helped me get my drivers licence.

Forget Max Payne, Sam Lake thinks the iconic dance choreography from Alan Wake 2 should be an emote in Fortnite!
Since I'm claiming to make the ultimate pirate game, I thought it would be nice to show some of its progress. Photo 1: Islands to plunder and lots of gold. Photo 2: ship upgrades! Photo 3: A proper game board. Photo 4: Downgraded game board because of all the iterations :')




Headline of the evening was nostalgia heaven though, I was imagining myself on my fathers 200mhz pc (with turbo button on of course) deploying my harvesters in dune 2, failing at Another World and of course venturing into hell with the shareware version of Doom.
Gameboy concert? Hell yeah! Finally got to go to a chiptune performance and now my love for chiptune has been reignited. arottenbit2029.bandcamp.com/album/you-dont…
From now on, I will be doing my yearly post on Bluesky! Can't wait... bsky.app/profile/frisor…

We are keen to blame everything from video games to smartphones to social media for the mental health crisis in young people - but if we want to understand the real reasons, we need only look around us. From me and @keefstuart: theguardian.com/games/article/…
