Back to writing the rest of TÖLT and I gotta say... I've never worked on something that was such a consistent delight to design.
I accidentally made something where any idea is a good idea. No matter how dumb/out of place/creepy/fun, it all just seems to work in the presence of low-poly horses??

I played @enigmastud.io's TÖLT last night, and look: I acknowledge am extremely easy lay for Enigma's entire glitchy first person psychological horror metatextual style.
But goddamn it it really is exactly my shit. Pump it into my veins. Cannot wait for the full game.

I can't stress enough how much you should go play this demo right now enigma-studio.itch.io/tolt
You can tell it's the same developer as the Enigma series, which is a huge compliment in and of itself.
So excited to get my hands on the full thing next year!!!

The demo for @enigmastud.io 's TÖLT absolutely blew me away. The writing is fantastic, blending hilarious dialogue with an unknown looming dread. There are already some insane secrets, and multiple endings if you can piece certain things together through multiple playthroughs...

I'm ready and willing to show you all something really cool, but I'm afraid I'm currently beholden to Valve time as I wait for them to approve something.
So not to overhype this or anything, but I guess what I'm saying is I'm basically about to release Half-Life 3.

Needed to urgently move some promo assets from my home PC to my office PC for an important deadline but since home internet was down, I couldn't use any cloud services.
Thankfully I met @alphachromeyayo.com a couple weeks back which allowed me to do things the ol' fashioned way.
Thank you ACY 🙏

I think "You can tell the developers really cared" is my least favourite bit of criticism and/or analysis to hear in any video essay.
Because, yeah man, of course they did. You could rightfully say it about like 99% of video games ever produced, even if the games are bad.

If you, like me, are a fiend for deductive narrative games (Obra Dinn, Golden Idol, etc) then you must check out the tremendous The Seance of Blake Manor (out today), which has become one of my favorite games of 2025. Only caveat is that I ran into a few nasty bugs www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATH_...

There were two games that really stood out for me. One was Tölt from @enigmastud.io, a game about being a horse 🐎
With its fuzzy low-poly graphics it felt like a cursed object. I loved it. 2/5

I can't see this as anything other than career suicide for poor ol Leslie. Releasing a bad game, whatever it happens. You can just move on
