Updated the demo for Turscar Isle: Irish localisation, some atmospheric changes, setting up for a harder no-gear level, and a hidden switch to activate Big Head Mode...nothing crazy...

It's St Patrick's Day. Looking for something to play from Ireland?

My stealth shooter Turret Baffler is 75% off until the 19th, thanks to the Imirt #GamesFromIreland Steam event!

A bit of a long shot posting this here, but if anyone knows anyone in Ireland who might be interested in this career development course Ardán are urgently looking for more applicants for this course. They have postponed it due to not enough eligible applications and they have asked me to help signal boost: https://ardan.ie/funding/games/sparks-game-changers-by-ardan-code-coven-applications-open/

I forgot I had a Mastodon account. AGAIN. Promise to do more on here.

ESPECIALLY since a project I've been working on will be starting soon...

Updated the demo and started an *open* playtest for Turscar Isle. If you like stealth games and hate spammers (and be honest, *everyone* hates them), then give it a try and let me know what a pile of rotten seaweed it is!

I totally forgot I had a Mastodon account. 😅

And a lot has happened since then. I started a new job, and became a Board Member of an organisation.

I'm hoping to make more connections over here, so if you're into making games, writing, or generally anything creative, reach out and we can chat!

I really just have to say, this game is something truly special. Go pick it up!

I haven't played a game that's made me feel so connected to it's world quite like this in a good while. It puts artistry & creativity at the forefront of it's design ethos.

Had a fantastic time at Run for The Border last night! I made some great contacts from Derry! I'm so happy that RFTB is back, it's a great way for Game Developers from #Ireland & #NorthernIreland to figure out ways to work together and network! We have such unique opportunities here with cross border funding, EU funding and UK and Irish government funding!

Thanks #Ardán #ScreenIreland #NorthernIrelandScreen #Imirt & #ItalicPig!

RTÉ: Games studio Gambrinous signs up to be a living wage employer

https://www.rte.ie/news/business/2023/0601/1386896-gambrinous-signs-up-to-living-wage/

As a member of GWUI, my fellow members and I call on the Government to legislate for better recognition of Unions by employers in the Game Industry leading to better engagement with workers.
