We're making a very unfaithful adaptation of 'Les Miserables' as a puzzle adventure game! Hand-drawn, amazing voice cast, songs, child-labour and a steam-punk horseless-horse! Wishlist this insanity today! store.steampowered.com/app/4090610 #IndieGame #AdventureGame #PointAndClick #NoAI

store.steampowered.comLess Miserables on SteamA historical comedy adventure game, loosely based on Les Misérables, with classic point-and-click puzzles, hand drawn art and an amazing voice cast.

More than 800 students have written a letter to University administration demanding a refund on their fees if strikes continue. As the Uni refuses to negotiate with staff, they very much see it as a choice of the administration's own control.

It's Day 22 of the UCU workers' strike against massive job cuts and deteriorating conditions at Edinburgh University. The Principal refuses to talk while earning almost half a million pounds. His successor is being prepared with similar pro-corporate anti-worker views. We organise and we fight on.

Any marketing/PR people attending AdventureX this year? Asking for... reasons. Would love to meet up at the event and chat. Reach out to me if so. dave at wadjeteyegames dot com.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Look, here's the thing. With layoffs, shutdowns, and GTA coming out in a month: If a game looks cool to you and you have the disposable income: buy it. Don't just cheer on indie games from the sidelines. Don't wait for a sale, or until you have time. Support art that excites you, tangibly.

The message it sends is completely accurate.

Currently wondering what message the UK govt thought it was sending by dressing up the Minister for Net Zero in a literal Shell logo.

I absolutely adored playing these two characters (and more!) in @tallstorygames.bsky.social’s Heir of the Dog, and I can’t wait for you to hear more. Check out the demo on the Steam Next Fest, and wishlist the game coming October 29th!

We pride ourselves on terrific comedic dialogue in our new #PointAndClick #AdventureGame, Heir of the Dog. And what better person to show it off than the bloody brilliant #VoiceOver actor, Phillipe Bosher (@pabosher.com)? #SteamNextFest

If I was a reviewer, I'd want a decolonial reference, but it's a great read!

AdventureX is hands down my favourite UK based games event at the moment. I went last year on a last minute whim and had such a nice time with it. It's an event that feels like it punches above it's weight. Kind of small venue, but everyone really wants to be there.

The Bob's Burgers illustrators love accurate buildings and infrastructure, down to the framing, plumbing, wiring. The boiler has an expansion tank. The power poles have transformers wired up just like they should be. There's a gas meter in the alley. The under-sink plumbing is detailed and correct

Yeah, that's the law.

Rockstar is currently embroiled in a legal battle after firing 34 staff, most of whom were involved in unionization efforts. When I asked Rockstar head of publishing Jennifer Kolbe about voluntary recognition, she said: "We go where the team goes. So if they want a union, they will have a union.”
