3.2k followers?!!! 🥳🎉🎉🎉 Thank you all for keeping tabs on our #indiehorror game! We're hard at work on a massively branching VN, Catalyst: Blind Faith. I'm posting progress here, plus tons of #art, #writing, #programming, #accessibility & more stuff we love! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🔥🔥🔥🔥

artists! ICYMI: if you've tagged your art, you can make slightly more organized galleries in case your media tab is a mess (like mine). this was possible before, but now it's easier to link to with bsky's new buttons! you can get the link by clicking a tag, and then "see # posts by user"

Happy three year anniversary, kids. I hope the other side of the cabin door is everything you ever could have hoped it would be.

I've never done a trailer like this before, where my own voice is in it. Stressful, but I think it does the best job yet at capturing what it's like to play Curse of Resthaven. Proud it premiered at the inaugural @cozyafterdarkshow.bsky.social fest! store.steampowered.com/app/3796150/...

I was asked how Next Fest is going, given all the issues being discussed this time around. It's going well, and I'm thrilled to be part of it. But there are also some unprecedented challenges this time around. I tried to be diplomatic, but honest. thegamerztheory.com/article/2026...

Sex is great but have you ever read Bram Stoker's Dracula whilst enjoying dark chocolate tiramisu and a vintage bottle of Pinot Noir in front of a crackling fire in a secluded cottage on the Scottish coast during a raging thunderstorm?

Getting to play the demo for Catalyst: Blind Faith is so much fun. @just-write-studios.itch.io truly is cooking something delicious. Ray is best boy, I love him so much. Best dog ever.

This is the letter kids got at the end of Dolly’s Imagination Library. I defy you to read this and not cry.

#MythAugust Distinct from prayer, ritual, songs, sacrifices, or any other means of worship is literal "invocation" of the Gods. Divine intervention is made possible by pious humans channeling the abilities of a deity through their body—at a cost. This is rarely attempted by most. Our MC, however🙏
