Hey! Have you heard of Indiepocalypse?

The monthly anthology of alternative games started in 2020?

Born from a love of small press publishers and desire to provide more opportunities for people making games outside the industry, each issue is a collection of 10 games.

But if youre looking for something to assign to a class of students its probably unlikely that 20ish people will all be happy with it. You cant really make an action game with it or anything really non-turn-based. And it doesnt natively track variables in an intuitive way.

If its for a personal project, I highly recommend looking into PuzzleScript, depending on what functionality youre missing from Bitsy. Primarily used for sokoban-type puzzle games but capable of much more.

a tumblr post reads "been listening to the knuckles raps from sa2 while pretending to not know the music is from a video game and i highly recommend the experience. really good from the perspective of a normal rapper who talks about ghosts trying to kill him and his ability to telepathically detect gemstones in the earth"
a reblog reads "i did this once while driving a classmate who knew nothing about sonic to college and she said in full seriousness 'it's so sad that he feels like he can't depend on anyone but himself'"

Indie deckbuilder All Will Rise's dev joins No Games For Genocide boycott and plans to hand back funding it received from Microsoft "We encourage others in the industry to join us and take a stand."

all will rise is handing back Microsoft money & pledging @nogamesforgenocide.com β€” it’s a difficult thing to do when funding and attention are scarce commodities for indies like us, but we hope more of our fellow devs and indie studios will join us in taking a stand πŸ”₯

We're so tired of posting these screenshots...

But this was today's vote against the Right to Food motion from @seanorr.bsky.social which merely proposed to study the feasibility of using City-owned land for a community grocery store.
