The perfect camping spot.
My game Well Dweller mimics the contrast seen in classic fairy tales, which are child-like but also dark/disturbing. There's a free demo on steam, and the full game will be released this year!

From the developer of Islets and Crypt custodian comes a new metroidvania, where you play as a bird wielding a matchstick and looks awesome!
This is Well Dweller and they just released a demo. Have you played it?

6 years ago I decided to make a video game. I made my first game, Sheepo in 7 months working on it obsessively for 80 hours a week. I figured it would sell a couple dozen copies and I'd have to go back to other work. (🧵1/4)

When I was making Sheepo, I thought it would be my only "full" game since I couldn't afford to spend all my time making games without money coming in. I am so extremely thankful and lucky that it has allowed me to continue making games years later.(🧵3/4)

Today, Sheepo hit 500 reviews on Steam (and overwhelmingly positive)! I absolutely never thought that was possible, and I am so grateful to everyone who has played or taken interest in any of my games. Thanks so much for 6 years of support!(🧵4/4)
