Seeing Ambrosia Sky talked about in the same breath as Scavenger Reign is really special to me!!!

You should wishlist Ambrosia Sky for weird, fungus-based, beautifully gross games??? ❤️ store.steampowered.com/app/3580160/...

If you've got a Steam Next Fest demo that would be good @intelligame.us fare (narrative-driven, any genre, connects to real-world themes/issues), please drop me a link!

Currently excited about Ambrosia Sky by @softrains.bsky.social and Relooted by @nyamakop.co.za, but on the hunt for more

Steam Next Fest has TWO Blumhouse Games titles to try. Crisol: Theater of Idols and SLEEP AWAKE. You can play both right now.

Blumhouse Games @blumhousegames.com · 1d

Blumhouse does games? Yes, we do.
Try them during #SteamNextFest.

🩸 Crisol: Theater of Idols - for fans of RE: Village, BioShock & Prey. On the cursed island of Tormentosa, your blood is your weapon. Headshots? will barely help.

finally got around to playing the demo of this today after spotting it at Vancouver Game Garden and damn, stunned I haven't heard about this previously. "gorgeous story-action-scifi powerwash simulator" seems like the kind of thing everyone should be screaming about.

christina 死神 @chhopsky.tv · 22d

In space, death is contagious. When we die, the Scarabs decontaminate our ships and lay us to rest.

But when Dalia gets cleanup request from her childhood home, she finds something she’s never seen before: a contamination that doesn’t want to be cleaned.

This is Ambrosia Sky.

My poor partner last night, got woken up by our dog dry heaving and almost puking and me, apparently, trying to scream while in deep sleep paralysis and making awful sounds instead, and he just had to deal with that

Ambrosia Sky is a high concept game about those we leave behind, and also an outer space PowerWash Simulator.
