The last weeks were a ton of work and - as usual - there were some super stressful last minute issues. But it feels so good to have the game out now 🥳

Faschismus muss sich nicht durchsetzen.
Er kann aufgehalten und besiegt werden, es gibt Beispiele, in denen genau das gelungen ist.
Momentan scheint es sehr schwer, sich eine bessere Zukunft vorzustellen, aber sie ist möglich. Es liegt an uns, sie zu erkämpfen.

At the Battle of Cable Street on 4 October 1936, at least 100,000 people, including Jewish residents, Irish dock workers, Communists and Labour Party members prevented a march by Oswald Mosley’s British Union of Fascists (BUF) from passing through the East End...
Pamphlet - They did not pass : 300,000 workers say no to Mosley. A souvenir of the East London workers' victory over fascism, produced by the Independent Labour Party. Wiener Holocaust Library collections.

The last fight took me quite a bit longer than I expected. I ran out of shards and ended up killing her with only the needle.

Overall a great game with a few hiccups in when it came to pacing, buildcraft and rewards, but outstanding exploration, combat and env. storytelling.

Im now neck deep in act 3 of silk song and I'm enjoying it imensly, but there is one thing that has been frustrating me and it gets worse with every new boss that requires somewhat quick reactions:

Faschismus.

Die öffentliche Sphäre wird gesäubert.

Sister Splinter is my favorite bossfight so far.

Like the previous bosses her moves are well telegraphed, few in number and easy to understand.

She does add in what made the arena sections so much harder than the earlier bosses though: giving you multiple foes to juggle. Reminiscent of DS2!

Last day of #gamescom and I finally find some time to check out the non-indie halls.

Some slightly amusing observations:

People stand in line for 4 hours in order to buy a Wednesday themed drink, but just around the corner no one seems at all interested in playing WoW :D
Empty waiting area and deserted stations at the WoW booth.

First day of Gamescom wasn't too bad and it's nice to meet so many new and familiar indie devs.

Let's see what the next 4 days bring - it's bound to get worse (crowd wise) 😅

can't wait to release that shoegazy grungy queerwave album 🥰💜✨
Screenshot of the tracklist of the album. It is written, with a "play" symbol before every track number : 1. Lonely Vampires in the Shade (feat Josie Brechner) 04:05 2. Vivre heureuse 02:35 3. Je m'endors contre toi 00:54 4. Onde (feat Exaheva) 03:01 5. Le dos noué (feat Bobo Fragile) 03:04 6. drowner (feat 4ngelf4ngs) 02:44 7. Horny Discale 02:21 8. Myrtille fraiche (feat Barbibitch) 01:51 9. 1, 2 + 3 04:50 10. i ate my fingers again 04:26 Cover art with the title "J'ai encore mangé mes doigts" hand written, a picture of Rose looking at the person holding the camera, hand on her mouth, plastic bag in the other. She is sitting in front of a bunch of pigeons. A text is written on the left of the picture going like this (it's long) and you know from time to time i'm just afraid of the power of my desire like when i'm trapped with myself looking at the ceiling and wanting wanting wanting and waiting for the time to pass really fast so tomorrow will be now and now will by with you, so i'm trapped with myself and the many seconds are sharped bladed fingers that dig rivers on my skin and my soul split for as many nails are caressing my chest, and the water flows and i'm horny and i'm tired and i'm longing for hours and hours for something that i cannot describe because i don't know what i really want, seriously, what do i fucking want in the end - therapy doesn't fucking end, doesn't it ? - so i'm drown in my desire of nowness feeling the urge of being able to perceive the now of all the things that surround me and i know i i i i i i i i can try to focus but it's harder than i always think to be here with you and everyone because i need to be here to begin with and not just a melted existing being that cannot endure any form of movement without bursting in tears of tiredness cause now this is a thing that i need to accept that i can't do the things i thought i could handle when i was young and not that type of socially exhausted person so i'm constantly afraid of myself so i talk a lot, to myself, for long period of time out loud to figure what i should do with all my being and the result is always that i still should try to exist because when i'm with you it's fucking amazing, that kind of amazing that makes me want to become the sun because i want to shine for you because this is one of your side effect on me, you are my sunshine and i'm a mirror of your smile, and as a happy mirror i smile back at you
