(1/6) Microtransaction rant thread. See below, or ignore if you don't care for me prattling on. But I beg all creators to at least consider it.

[PAX Australia @PAXAus]

🥊🔔 WELCOME TO THE FINAL FIRST-ROUND MATCHUP OF THE PAX AUS NEW AREA POLL BRACKET.

😈 Tasmanian Devil VS 🦜 Rosella

[The Average Rook @TheAverageRook]

This is my ideal indie game! Just a straight-up adventure with colour and whimsy, no management mechanics needed!

If y'all haven't tried out #Duskfade yet, please do! Especially for the KH or Ratchet & Clank fans! 🙏

[Duskfade🌙 @WeirdBeluga]

[X300 | Psychological Horror Game @x300game]

Wishlist Wednesday

We're developing X300 for psychological horror players who prefer slow-burn dread, oppressive atmosphere, and the feeling that something is quietly observing them.

[The Average Rook @TheAverageRook]

If more than 50% of your indie game is Survival or Management mechanics, PLEASE FUCKING ADD THE TAG!!! I always think I stumbled on a great and colourful adventure or a Zelda-like, and then it pulls a "Cult of the Lamb" on me.

Get base building out of my Adventure RPGs!!!

Going to be wing farming EX2 tonight 😈
Taking bets now on how many clears it takes to get them…..

[The Average Rook @TheAverageRook]

@owldaweeb I'll bet on 3 tries to clear EX2 - 2 at least - then 6 tries for the first wing to drop

[The Average Rook @TheAverageRook]

Due to recording issues yesterday afternoon, @ToadaBrava will be rescheduled to Sunday instead.

Alternatively, we'll be aiming to have the episode for #BloodWestScavengers done and available for viewing on Saturday instead of Sunday. But the window will be tight.

[The Average Rook @TheAverageRook]

Got this bought, downloaded and installed! I'll be recording an episode of my playthrough of it, and we should have it up in 2 or so days!

DERELIKT joins the Hyperstrange family!

A PS1-styled sci-fi FPS from @Visuwyg, where eldritch horrors meet immersive storytelling, old-school puzzles, inventory management, and that one guy sticking his hands where they absolutely should not be - then having to shoot his way through the mess he made.

Coming in 2026.

And in 2 days, our next big Hyperstrange celebration begins - with a ton of news, reveals, and a lotta discounts.
