As I'm reviewing the entries for #InsectileContest, I'd love some feedback on the new bug collecting animation!

How can I make it more satisfying? (Or soul crushing, for failures?)

I'm revising the date of #InsectileContest just a bit!

Since the winner will not be decided until at least Monday morning, I will be accepting submissions through Sunday night : ) There is still plenty of time to design your own puzzlingly-shaped bug!

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

Adding sauce to my indie game this week by improving some animations.

Here's the new animation for morphing an Insectile into a new form! Thoughts?

And the winners of #InsectileContest are... Creepslime (Twitter) and ricekrispbee (IG)! I will be adding both of these puzzlingly-shaped creatures to the game!

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

It's time for honorable mentions! 🐞🎉 [Article!]
