An excellent puppet test for some secret project (which might not even be a game?), and don’t missthis older tweet demonstrating sticky haireither:

Strong personality from the final boss in Coffeekind, a platformer being made as part of a game jam, which stars a boiling kettle with wee arms and legs:

I can excuse the pun from Van Hellswing (coming to Steam, with a demoon Itchnow) because it has a grappling hook, and that’s all that really matters:

Whilethat bodycam FPShas excited many,goblinAmerica(coming to Steam) has an alternative to consider:

I do not know whyNightmare Reaper(out now on Steam, andwe reviewed it last year) has a gun which fires pizzas, but I am glad they’re adding a variety of pizzas:
