First win in ! It's mega-addictive - a roguelike deckbuilder, based on the basics of poker. You have some joker slots that create different buffs and builds, celestial cards that power up individual hands (pair, flush, etc), tarot pulls that improve your regular deck with multipliers... it's great! Slay The Spire-ish in depth.

This week's pod is up! Links in bio. It's an interview with @remysiu, the creative director of @1000xResist. We talk about games as art, diasporic narratives, dark hilarity, episodic development, the origin of "hekki", the legacy of KRZ, and much more. Enjoy!✨ #1000xresist @fellowtravellergames #indiegames #gamepod #indiegamedeveloper #indiegamestudio
@UltrosGame is a dazzlingly creative indie that revitalises the Metroidvania genre. The prismic visuals and symphonic score are a sensual treat, and the game’s ingenious ecosystem slowly blooms into a map-spanning meta-puzzle that demands patience, observation, curiosity, and creativity. Find the new episode in your fave pod place now!
Have been enjoying the opening of Chalamet-Souls a considerable amount. These gothic fairytale dark Victoriana vibes are really doing it for me. #LiesOfP
New pod out now! #SludgeLife2, #PizzaTower, #BackpackHero, December releases, #JingleJam2023, and more.
New pod! #GoodbyeVolcanoHigh is a lush visual novel about a high-school band at the end of the world. Playing as a goth dino called Fang, we navigate crushes, fallouts, band practice, school, and role playing sessions, via dialogue choices & light rhythm gameplay. It’s an absorbing narrative game lit up by sparkling writing, sensuous art, and a dreamy guitar-pop soundtrack. @ko_opmode
New pod! #Jusant by @dontnod_ent is a zen, mechanically innovative climbing game, in which a nameless protagonist climbs a huge rock tower in a dry, deserted word. The wordless story adds some intrigue, and the methodical, tactile, handhold-by-handold climbing really shines. Find the show in your fave pod place!
New pod! #NourPlayWithYourFood is a bizarre digital toy, more than anything, which both delights and confounds. Also: #ChantsOfSenaar, #ForzaMotorsport, and more!
New pod! #UnderTheWaves offered an engrossing underwater mini-open-world to check out, alongside a sometimes-interesting story. Link in bio for the review!
#NourPlayWithYourFood was the craziest thing I've played since #Wattam. It was barely comprehensible, but somehow really fun.
#Cocoon was a tough game review. It's an impressive, cool, high-sheen indie game—that I really didn't like. It took a sec to hash out why! Find the episode on your fave pod platform.
The #Starfield episode is up. It's a spoiler-free deep dive into the factions, combat, space travel, and more. Link in story!
This was such a cool mission. Close-quarters combat in a dying space station with the gravity flicking on and off. #Starfield
New pod out now! It's a starry one: ✨#FortSolis by @fallenleafgames is an engrossing sci-fi thriller with impressive visuals, light gameplay, and some ambiguous storytelling. ✨Plus: #SeaofStars first look, and #Starfield impressions, three hours in.
New pod—just in time for the weekend 😁 #ShotgunKing is an ingenious take on chess in which you blast the enemy pieces to smithereens. It started life as a #LudumDare game jam entry, and is out now on all consoles as "Shotgun King - The Final Checkmate". Link in bio for the full episode! Also: Adore, #Gamescom picks, & more!
This week: Meg's Monster, a simple pixel-art adventure with a lot of heart. Also, a review of 'Tomorrow, And Tomorrow, And Tomorrow', a 2022 novel by Gabrielle Zevin, set in the world of game development. http://gaminginthewild.com
