I've started playing Chirax Fortress by @dreamcube.bsky.social and I must say I already love it! 🐲

It gives off strong SNES vibes, and it's definitely a lot of fun to play! 😎

You can wishlist or purchase the game on Steam:

Stephen, thank you so much for playing the game! 😄 I wasn't even aware you'd try it before I saw the VOD this morning. If anyone wants to have a look at the other projects coming out of this jam, check out @godot-collab-jam.bsky.social

Do you like dragons and arcade games? We made a free arcade platformer that stands in the tradition of 80s arcade games like Bubble Bobble. Spit fire, burn enemies and destroy the level itself!
You can play it right now on Itch directly in the browser:

Dragon Dragon Fire Fire by Godot Collaborative Game Jam community, ASTENRA, Zephyrix

A late 80s styled arcade game with destructible levels.

@pyral.dinoleaf.com managed to run Ronny's Climb on some obscure handheld gaming device! Not sure what that thing is (ask him, he knows all about them), but I'm certain there was at least a bit of black magic involved.

I played this a lot in Early Access. It's an absolutely fantastic city builder.

StrayFawnStudio @strayfawnstudio.bsky.social · Jul 18

Our team is super excited and we hope you are too. We can’t believe it’s been 5 years since we first started working on the game!

Thank you all very much for your continuous support in the past months and years!
We couldn’t have made it here without you ❤️

Yay, more Blue Prince. 😄

Which is fitting as this is also where the finale of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade was filmed. 😄

I really enjoyed the demo of Dino Quake! If you're into classic arcade games, you should definitely check this one out! Congrats to the release!

Dino Quake is out now on Steam and mobile 🦖✨

This game is my love letter to the arcade games I spent hours playing as a child - I hope you give it a try!

This just reminded me of the "German" labels in the submarine in Fate of Atlantis. 😄

I played it just a few years ago
Great game! Through the action sequences gave me a lot of grey hairs. 😄
