Pixelarty thing for a horror gamey thing (maybeee)

A naked man standing quite creepily on the left, and his silhouettes evidencing parts of his inner body systems on the right

Becoming Saint by @peterpunk.bsky.social and friends is out; and you can try to become that and live in the posthumous, or give up and live in the present, I assume. It's all strategy after all. Here: store.steampowered.com/app/2643010/...

A "pick your pet" screen where you can choose a cat, a sheep or a wolf, in what might be a metaphor for your followers and for modern social media. Or not

Pierrec - Wednesdays @wednesdays-game.bsky.social · May 2

Wednesdays is 10% off to celebrate International Workers' Day! (actually it's for #LudoNarracon).

Maybe this weekend would be a good time to try it out and see for yourself if it's as good as everybody says!

more things about my next game (maybe)

Hand drawn text says: "There is a kid, and in the kid there's a tree".
In fact there's a tree, and under the ground, where its roots are coming from, rests a small skeleton

Daniele Giardini (Demigiant) @demigiant.com · Apr 26

maybe next game for this summer

A woman sinking in a sea under a mountain and under a falling river which is not a waterfall even if it could be.
"There is a river, and in the river there's a sea"

JD Vance heads to Rome - could he meet Pope Francis?

The US vice-president will meet Italy's prime minister but an audience at the Vatican could also happen, the BBC learns.

#QueenBoat is out. It is a #visualnovel inspired by real events that happened in Cairo, Egypt, where 52 #gay men were arrested and tortured for no reason other than a political agenda.

best Star Trek crew, wrong answers only

Patrick Swayze holding Jennifer Grey in the Dirty Dancing finale, while the rest of the dirty 60s Star Trek crew admires the fact that they didn't fall and die (probably because neither of them is wearing a red shirt)

more than a million people, protesting peacefully. Then they were shot with a sonic cannon. The "president" denies it because obviously (it's very illegal, yet Serbia bought it in 2022), but see the first 2 videos on this page, where the crowd suddenly panics and divides: n1info.rs/vesti/video-...
