Meet the Pale Matron ✦
At the start of her turn,
she steals a random tile from your hand
and uses it in her own combinations.
Your resources are never really yours.

Discarding isn’t cleanup.
It’s a decision that changes what comes next.

Me and my wife have been creating Burn With Me, a narrative deckbuilder, for a year already.
After work, during weekends, slowly shaping the cozy but eerie world of personal desires and forbidden rituals.
Next week, January 29th, we open first public playtest!
#ScreenshotSaturday #GodotEngine
Sometimes the game is about
building and reshaping many small combinations.
Sometimes everything revolves around a single, long chain ✦

Looks yummy! And I love the pun :)
Love the mix of dress-up mechanics and whimsical dark fantasy aesthetic 🖤
Stylised Tarot suits as a game syste
That’s why I use stylised Tarot suits in my game ✦
They naturally belong to a late Gothic / early Renaissance world.

Early Italian playing cards (trionfi), 15th century
I can’t believe it took me making a game to realise that Tarot cards aren’t some separate esoteric system. They originated in Northern Italy in the 15th century as a regular game deck (trionfi) ✦

Definitely yes! The screenshots convey the vibe really well ✨
Cover of the book Virtual Cities: An Atlas & Exploration of Video Game Cities, an illustrated atlas documenting the history of video game cities through maps, drawings, and analysis of iconic digital urban spaces.
I have your previous book and really enjoyed it, so I’m very much looking forward to this new one.
Congrats! Wishlisted and looking forward to the demo ✨
This is a small UI moment from The Other Order ✦
A discard that’s meant to feel like a loss.

Thank you! That’s honestly the perfect way to play it. I’m really hoping to have it on Steam Deck later this year ✨
Really love the hand animation!
It’s impressive how a single hand conveys the opponent’s presence and character.
Thanks @clumsybearstudio.com for hosting
#TurnBasedThursday!
Wishing you a successful EA launch 💫
I’m working on The Other Order — a turn-based, tile-based roguelike where you build, reshape, and disrupt combinations, turning order itself into a weapon.

Boards shown in tilted perspective.
Players from different cultures and social classes.
Structure and uncertainty coexisting in the same space.
This tension is at the core of how I think about game design ✦

One of the key inspirations behind The Other Order aesthetics ✦
Libro de los juegos
commissioned by Alfonso X of Castile in 1283.
A medieval compendium of games —
chess (intellect), dice (chance), and tables,
where play is treated as a way to understand the world.

Thank you!
In The Other Order, you and your enemy play with the same set of tiles ✦
Every move reshapes the board —
sometimes in your favor,
sometimes not.

Thank you! I’m excited to share more soon 💫
The Steam page for The Other Order is live ✦
