First game of Feud in a while, a new opponent, let’s see how I do. The Feud community likes to make fun of me for how bad I am at my own game so I am not optimistic.

A screenshot of Feud. The black pieces are on the bottom, that’s me, my opponent is up top.

First time player experience is very important to us at @bearwaves.com , which is why we are engaged in a competition to effectively communicate the rules of our game with weird little poems

Bluesky lets you upload portrait images and displays them which is lovely for mobile game devs like me. Here’s our debut game, Feud. Our studio is @bearwaves.com, please give us a follow (and then give Feud a go, it’s free!).
