There is a #knitting themed rhythm game @ #gdc from @immortalfunkgames.bsky.social - Woolderness. The rhythm game involves touching your knitting needles together in the right pattern and timing. I didn’t get to try the shepherding mechanics etc but I hope to soon. #games #gamedev

I can’t believe I missed playing this one. Will have to hit the floor tomorrow to do it.

@iocat.bsky.social I 100% blame you for me misspelling of Detective Dotson as Dobson in this post

That is SO AWESOME

Hi! 👋 I'm Jess, I'm a community manager at Bethesda, working on The Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Starfield, and a tiny bit of Indiana Jones. I'm entering my 8th year in the industry.

I love turn-based, strategy, rpgs, souls likes, and cozy games!
This is #WhatAGameDevLooksLike

Wow this is inspiring, Chris <3

I played Detective Dobson today at the ID @ Xbox showcase and it is right up my alley. Fun mystery with puzzles to solve, bargaining mechanics, exploration - sweet!!! @dotson.in #gdc
