We have a demo of the game, and we’re looking for that very special publisher to finish development.
Streamers too, let us know if you’d like to try it!
Players, if you want to know when the game comes out, join our mailing list!

Secret Woods is based on a real place, a forest in southern France with incredible biodiversity. All the creatures are real too!
When you click on an objective, we give hints about where they might be hiding. This “genette” likes to stay up high.

Grandma has gone missing in the old forest. Good thing she left you with this map!
Find the lizard under the rock, and the bird nest in the tree. Search by the moonlight. Win stickers. Solve puzzles about food webs. Rekindle old memories.
Maybe they will lead you back to her?

#PitchYaGame
But in fact, a pitch deck is the main documentation that the whole publishing team will see, across different departments like marketing and production that I can't present to. Therefore, it has to stand on its own.
In other words, the pitch deck _is_ the presentation.

It was quite an experience to have my 15-slide pitch deck pulled part and critiqued for an hour!

Until now, I mostly thought of the deck as visual support for my presentation, and maybe as notes for the publisher after the meeting.

In about 20 minutes I'll be live with @indiegamebusiness for a pitch deck review! Should be fun!
It's at 4PM EST here: www.youtube.com/c/indiegameb...

Wouldn't these spritesheets work well as wallpaper for a kids room? #indiegame #gamedev
Check out the video of our new demo ! We added an illustrated intro and puzzles.
Streamers and publishers - if you're interested in testing out demo, please tell me in the comments 😉
And give us some love ❤️

This Sunday I'm headed to Kraków for the #DigitalDragons #gamedev event.
Despite living in Europe for the past 20 years, this will actually be my first time in Poland, and I'm excited to discover it! I've heard great things about the historic center.
Hit me up if you're there and we can meet!
Comment créer un jeu VR ? J'ai hâte de découvrir ce va nous raconter Erwin Eninger sur la direction artistique de Blade & Sorcery chez @warpfrog.bsky.social

Who's hiding in the tree?
Making levels for Secret Woods is a lot of fun!

We're adding sticker puzzles to our hidden objects game. I just worked on having a nice intro where the pieces fall.
What do you think?

Awesome interview by Gwen & Sam from @runawayparade.bsky.social to @npr.org about the devastating effects of tariffs on the indie board game industry

Recently I ran a brainstorming workshop for a game about soil health for the Benchmarks EU project. The game is inspired by Reigns, and players make hard decisions and see how they impact the soil.
After playing the rough prototype, the participants came up with new cards we can integrate.
I had a blast last week showing Secret Woods at the @londongamesfest.bsky.social.
Most of the attendees were either streamers, publishers, students, or game devs. So I got to have a lot of fun conversations!
Also, who knew that Secret Woods ran on a Steam Deck? I’m impressed!
ChatGPT likes me! 😂
Someone wrote on our website asking how to try our game. I figured they had seen Secret Woods at the London Games Festival last week. But when I asked how they heard about us, they wrote:
"I ask to chatGPT for educational game on blockchain and it suggested you :)"
Quite a stark contrast at the #GDC bookshop this year!
I guess video game culture is evolving. Or is it splitting in two?
I never saw so many game design books in one place as there was at the #GDC shop!
I couldn't resist, and bought 2 that I'm sure to love. "Building Simcity" traces the classic city builder and the history of simulation games. "Game Balance" seems to be a bible on this most difficult of subjects.
I'm not exactly surprised, but given how often I see people ask ChatGPT questions rather than searching, it is alarming indeed.

Our game Secret Woods was accepted into the London Games Festival!
I'll be in London showing off the game, so come by and say hi!

@stfj.net I have a daily trivia game called Mixstory, and I wonder if it could be a good fit for Puzzmo. If you're at GDC I'd love to meet and get your thoughts. Thanks!
Life, the board game, seemed normal at the time, but now it feels more like you're a gangster who held up a bank, kidnapped some kids and is making a run for it.
