@ConstanceGame Looks great! Is this coming to console also?

Please don't attack small indie developers over the physical game situation. For some small teams, it's simply not possible to release a physical edition on day one.

The Duskfade dev team commented on the situation:

"hey everybody, we love physical games too! we'd love to make boxed editions of Duskfade a reality, but as a smaller indie team we need to see how our digital launch goes first to see if its feasible for us <3"

[Anthony @AntsRow]

This is fundamentally the problem with this "boycott". Most people are going to extremes without understanding the economic reality.

Physical copies are only economically beneficial for AAA games, spending is shifting towards indie/AA. Not everyone can make physical work

We’ve literally had people tell us to CANCEL our digital release and do physical only. IDK if people realise that we are just 2 people and this is our first game. We’d LOVE to do physical &amp; we support physical ownership but our game kinda has to do well digitally first 🤷

At $69.99, retail margin takes 25-35%, distributors another 10-20%, and physical production ~$10. That leaves studios with just over $26 per unit — compared to ~$49 on digital at highest margin.

It only gets worse as prices drop. Large publishers sit on the better side of the equation, but even they make significantly more per digital sale. From a pure ROI standpoint, the choice is obvious.

I'm glad someone within the industry is speaking on this issue. I think to a lot of people it's very black and white but it is so much more of a complex discussion than many realise

[Marek Tyminski @tyminski_marek]

GTA6 shipping with no disc feels unfair to studios still backing physical — and it’s accelerating the shift. Sony ending physical support from 2028 could slash disc releases as early as 2027 or even sooner.

Physical delivers far less revenue per unit to developers, longer lead times, and unnecessary costs in a demanding industry where many already lose money.

We’re still planning to release Lords of the Fallen 2 on disc, but business-wise it’s getting harder to justify when physical is way under 20% of sales and considering recent events.

As a PC nigga, it’s wild seeing PC niggas do that thing where they act like everyone can just buy a PC willy nilly. Like the entire issue with gaming isn’t affordability rn☠️

Ollie Watkins just scored a double to beat Man City, away, after a 3 day session in Istanbul.

Just finished my first playthrough of @ConstanceGame on PS5. Absolutely loved it, up there with my favourite metroidvanias 🙌🏾

[Anthony @AntsRow]

@PlayStation Incredible line up of games 👏🏾

[Best Indie Games @clemmygames]

Check out the insane animation of Oh My Doug! a cartoony metroidvania that could pass off as a Cartion Network show and looks absolutely amazing

Can't wait to play this on PlayStation!

@ConstanceGame First off, congratulations!

Secondly, any chance of news on a Playstation port?
