Apologies for the lull in content! Things have been nutty at work, and just getting back into it. This next showcase features a game that I really enjoyed, especially since cozy games aren't really my thing. Come check out Whisper of the House, which releases on Wednesday, August 27, with a newly confirmed price of $14.99 (10% off on release!) Here is this week's showcase. Nice innovation, along with some interesting storylines and organizational mechanics! 💚 youtu.be/E0QbNKZoMb4 #IndieGames #IndieGame #IndieDev #IndieGameShowcase #WhisperOfTheHouse #GameDev #CozyGames @GD_whisperrr

Please like and repost. Please help me get the word out!! 🥰 Working feverishly on growing these YouTube and Twitch Channels. Lately, I have been adding new content to my main YouTube channel to the point where I genuinely think I have screwed up the algorithm so much that it's simply ignoring me. Hahahaha To that end, I have created a VODs channel, also in light of Twitch getting rid of their unlimited Highlight storage. I have started with adding Final Fantasy IV streams, but it is my plan to add every single stream I have ever done and kept recorded over the years. It will be a slow process, but it will be YEARS before I run out of content to post. Everything will be neatly organized in individual play lists. Please consider subscribing to my VODs channel, help get the word out. This is a tight-knit community that I really want to continue growing. Lots of fun, conversations, knowledge sharing, and growing together! 💚 youtube.com/@MazTech_GamingV… #ContentCreator #TwitchStreamer #YouTuber #WeGrowTogether #DiscordCommunity #Twitch

Back with another PODCAST! We've been doing a poor job marketing this as of late. I am committing to getting better at it. We discuss why most indie games seem to lose their appeal or momentum pretty fast, while some withstand the tests of time... open.spotify.com/episode/7uJ… #IndieGames #IndieGamers #IndieDevs #Indie_Hangout @Indie_Hangout

We started the beta a few weeks ago and now our demo is live as part of Steam Next Fest. It's been some of the most intense days of my life but it's very rewarding to see so many people playing the thing I've been working on for years. Thank you for sticking with us!
