👻 Extremely Haunted Trumpet 🎺

Just sharing some words from our beloved lead writer @conwaaaaaaay.bsky.social about their work on #TheLeftEye 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ #indiegame #lgbtq #queerart #queerhistory #writing

#TheLeftEye is 20% off for the @itch.io Halloween Sale! We've discounted it on #steam to match too :) itch.io/s/209731/hal... store.steampowered.com/app/3811440/... (Art of our best girl Deirdre by @metonumia.bsky.social ❤️) #indiedev #vndev #art #visualnovel

@metonumia.bsky.social’s Halloween art of Emile is absolutely adorable 😭 And reviews truly are appreciated, on Steam or Itch! 🎃 #art #indiedev #steam #itchio

Juuust in time for the Punk Games Showcase, the page is now up to wishlist the DEVIL'S LIMINAL soundtrack! It features entirely original music by @danieltelesost.bsky.social and in my unbiased opinion is the best videogame music in existence. #PunkGamesShowcase #punkgames #indiedev

#ScreenshotSaturday ft. our new UI! Jackie thinks Emile's blackmail material is just a little bit too convincing, but maybe you can help him talk his way out of it? store.steampowered.com/app/3811440/... #TheLeftEye #gamedev #vndev #indiedev

I MOVED THE RELEASE DATE UP 😬 Sloppy Forgeries is coming to Steam on Fri, Nov 13th (ack, Fri 13th)! Demo out Oct 19th. PLS SHARE! ❤️ Local multiplayer w/2 mice, online w/8 people, 50 masterpieces, leaderboards, painting archives, tablet support… #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #art #drawing

Worth it though 😏 #TheLeftEye #vndev #vn #NYBG 🍃

#TheLeftEye is kind of one long weird protracted date (what with Emile being a romance scammer), but this particular evening got a rare truthful reaction out of him 💙 Also still 30% off in the #steam autumn sale! store.steampowered.com/app/3811440/... #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #vndev #lgbtq

Instead of reading this article, you could play my 20-hour game about getting a demon's help to go no contact with your parents. Reviews have described it as realistic! Physically nauseating! Suprisingly hopeful! Peak yuri! No one is saying all that about WSJ. s.team/a/2271270/

another rough #wip CG for the left eye episode 4! alex and emile are definitely not an item. what on earth gave you that idea. #art #vndev

20% chance of oysters but 80% chance of hotdogs, a serious and real mechanic in #TheLeftEye 🌭 #art #gamedev #wip

Time for #ScreenshotSaturday! And time for a peek at the first scene of #TheLeftEye episode 4! Emile's getting close to pulling off his audacious con, and all he has to do now is broker the sale of an absurdly large and possibly cursed diamond... #vndev #indiedev #justemilethings #havinganormaltime

Happy Friday 🎉 we've got a new #devlog about our progress on episode 4 of #TheLeftEye! Just a short one this time, we're basically all working on more routes, more branching, more CGs, and more ridiculous mob-adjacent 1920s hijinks. #gamedev #steam #indiegame #vndev #lgbtq

Here's a sneaky WIP of my piece, included in the 'Moments of Euphoria' trans Art Book! ✨🏳️‍⚧️✨ Please check out the Kickstarter and get notified when it launches! 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵 (I'm sooo excited, everyone's art is amazing) #zine #artbook #art #illustration #transjoy #lgbtqart #queerart #transrights #lgbtqia

🎉 Our first draft of episode 4 is finished!! And @conwaaaaaaay.hauntedtrumpet.com has some thoughts on writing, branching and what’s coming up for all these con artists, mobsters, and dangerous types in #TheLeftEye episode 4! #gamedev #vndev #writing #narrativedesign #lgbtq

Emile is the saddest boy (but not really, he’s just hamming it up for a funeral he doesn’t really want to attend in episode 2 of #TheLeftEye) store.steampowered.com/app/3811440/... #wishlistwednesday #art #vndev #steam #indiedev Art by our CG artist, @sansorganes.hauntedtrumpet.com ❤️

It was #InternationalNonbinaryPeoplesDay yesterday and it's #NonbinaryAwarenessWeek. You may be aware I'm nonbinary, have been since before HRT. Seeing different people's nonbinary lives was pivotal to recognising myself this way. Now my games explore ways to be nonbinary. superbiasedcat.itch.io

The brilliant @kymberleyc.bsky.social (who composed some killer tracks for The Left Eye) is now the voice of Victoria Beaumont in The Incident at Galley House, by @eviltrout.com ! After devouring The Roottrees Are Dead, this is an instant stream buy for me! store.steampowered.com/app/3641000/...
