Happy 2nd birthday Jimbo! localthunk.com/blog/bad-gra...

My friend @tricko.bsky.social launched his first ever game in early access today! I’ve played it with him and some other devs over the past year, it’s great fun It’s a cool take on platform/fighter, and it even has online multiplayer! Crash his servers >:) store.steampowered.com/app/3108230/...

I wanted to give an update on the Balatro 1.1 release date: localthunk.com/blog/im-slow TL;DR is that it will not be coming out in 2025, it is still coming out for sure, and I'm sorry. The new timeline is "it's done when it's done" Please read the blog post for more details

✨️I've been working on this lovely game with a lovely team!✨️ Please give this project some love (and wishlists!) Hope you enjoyed the trailer!❤️

My friend Paci has been working on this for a while, so cool to see the store page after all the iterations the game has gone through! Very excited for this one ⛏️ one of those games I’ll probably sink a bunch of hours into on my Steam Deck

What a year it's been! After a year of hard work we can finally let you try Nice To Yeet You! #gamedev #indiegame #fightinggame #brawler #nicetoyeetyou #ntyy 1/2

Balatro 4: Jimborigins

if you wanna make video games as a career you have to enjoy the process of making video games. its not enough to just enjoy the end result. same goes for most types of creative works

Nope! I have no earthly idea what he’s talking about 🌝

I’m really stoked to play my friend’s game The Quizard’s Domain when it releases! Looks like it’s coming along great so far

If you don't know Dan, he's the dev behind Luck Be a Landlord; the game that inspired me to make Balatro and influenced tons of other devs to expand on this genre he shaped His newest game Maze Mice just left early access! You should check it out! I'm going to be playing it all weekend

I have 100% completed Balatro! Was a ton of fun to hunt for Completionist++. I play a few runs before bed and it's been a great part of my daily routine. I think it's also equipped me to better design the 1.1 update Pumped to do it all over again with the new content when it comes out!

People and media often say Balatro was made by 'one guy'. I feel like that unfortunately may be stoking the flames of this David vs. Goliath narrative a tiny bit No it was not 'one guy', look at the dang in-game credits

OMG! 20,000 Wishlists. 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you all so much. This has never happened to us before. It's quite something. :-) Wishlist Forbidden Solitaire: store.steampowered.com/app/3414580/...

Play Arco. Arco is a game that is good, unique, and gorgeous. Play Arco. What more could you want? Have you played Arco yet? 🅰️rco

I'm glad this video was somehow still able to happen despite all the garbage the staff at @polygon.com have gone through. Please give it a watch and support independent games media.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO I'M AT 144/150

oh my god you've been teasing Blue Prince this whole time

Catch my goofy ass card game in the new season of Black Mirror

Here to say everything everyone is saying about Blue Prince is true. It's so good. It's my GOTY so far. Trust me in saying you should go into it knowing as little about its mechanics as possible, it's so much more fun that way!

I'm gonna rinse him, he has no shot

Those that know nothing about Ed McMillen: is he okay? Those that know anything about Ed McMillen: this is going to be a fucking masterpiece www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyWc...
