The Anchorite is a very short point-and-click adventure made for the AdventureX jam. Can't say much without spoiling it but I enjoyed the mystery and was impressed by the artwork for this game made in two weeks. Free and playable in the browser

Die for the Economy is a new game inspired by the classic arcade game Berzerk, featuring psychedelic pixel art and all the robot voices you would hope for from one of these types of games. I played it a bit this morning and it's probably the best Berzerk-inspired game I've ever played. I love the humor about how much capitalism sucks and the difficulty levels make this approachable for any arcade game fan

@yuberus hell yes! I’m looking forward to your video!
