Big day! The Abbess Garden, our little game, has its demo available in the #SteamNextFest 💖

If you think you might like a cozy gardening game set in 17th-century France, with real plants, a thrilling spy plot, queer romance and court drama, try our #indiegame!

And if you in the calendar section you can add events to your own google calendar very easily :-)

I found this website easier to follow than that google sheet:
gameconfguide.com/calendar/

Calendar of games industry events 2024 & 2025

Calendar of all confirmed and announced games industry events and game conferences scheduled for 2024 and 2025. Search by month.

I'm so so sorry, I hope he finds new work soon ❤️

Ooo whats that? ...its an Ammonite! Did you know over 10 000 (maybe close to 20 000!) ammonite species have been discovered! And they are a very valuable tool for scientists to determine the age of rocks they are fossilised in because of how rapidly they evolved.

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references.

Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.
