Starting today, I'm the new Gameloft Brisbane Community Manager! 👋

For years I've admired the local Gameloft team, how much they've achieved, and their ability to uplift and empower the local game dev community.

So proud to be joining such a talented local studio. 😊

The most adorable game pack ever. 😭

Hope you all had the best time at PAX! 🙌 Really satisfying seeing so many local Brissie games on the showfloor.

So hard to pick a favourite when they're all so good! Might have to get to NZGDC next year 👀

Here is a player facing spreadsheet of 150 indie games from PAX. Aus, NZ and SE Asia. Game name, steam (or other) link, demo y/n, genre, comments (which I'm editing). Please share. Let's work together to connect people to Aussie indies. I'm going to tag people next. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Shyftrs was top notch too. 👌 Played like a dream on Steam Deck!

What a list! 🤯 That is a MAMMOTH effort. Will definitely be referring back to this.

Qualbert.com 🔜 Bed @qualbert.com · 10h

Quality all around! And just genuinely incredibly passionate and friendly people too. 🥰

Totally. Many really embrace a Kiwi style, particularly through their sense of humour.

New Zealand indie games smashed it this year at @paxaus.bsky.social! 🙌

The @nz-code.nz booths are among some of the very best I've seen at PAX in recent years. And if you missed them, catch up with our "Indies From Across the Ditch" article later this week.

Continuing the tradition with a new Games Week tattoo!

The Binding of Isaac has been massively influential on me. I especially admire Edmund McMillan's approach to embracing weirdness and absurdity in his game design.

Very happy to have a little piece of Isaac with me forever. ♥️

Another Games Week, another unhinged @massivemonster.bsky.social event! 🐑

The Cult of the Lamb Puppet Show was sublime - massive puppets true to the characters, and a story that unravels the origins of The Lamb and the Old Faith.

Great work to the team at Golden Scissor Puppets. 👏

That's a wrap on day 1 of @paxaus.bsky.social - and how brilliant it was to get the Qualbert team together!

My heart is so full. 🥰 Will be back again tomorrow to do it all over again. See you there!

Today isn't just the first day of PAX—it's also World Mental Health Day. ♥️

Catch me today at the Black Dog Institute stand from 2pm. Swing by for a chat about games, community, and how you can support and connect with others.

Most of all, have an amazing PAX and connect with all your friends!

Getting your first media badge is surreal - but you've well and truly earned it! 🥰 Thanks for everything you've done over the last couple years. The site has been an awesome team effort.
