A magnificent effort from

As anyone who has played my game will know, I am not generally given to bright colours... However, it has been my absolute PRIDE to have worked with a wide spectrum of wonderful people and, with their talent and hard work, crafted a game which reflects that diversity!🌈

Cryptmaster has passed 500 reviews and is now rated as "overwhelmingly positive" on Steam! For anyone who doesn't know how these ratings work, this means that it is the greatest game of all time. I never lost faith in myself.

Okay, I'm playing Hades 2 and it's as great as I imagined, but the only thing that lets it down is a lack of word-based puzzles. Also, it's a little TOO colourful. The ideal way to play it is probably to alternate sessions with a puzzly, monochrome dungeon crawler. So mote it be!

I'm being UNFAIRLY accused of CENSORSHIP because of changes between the concept sketch of GOGGO THE MOIST and the final 3D model. This was simply part of the design process and I am NOT, as the current petition would have it, a "TIDDY HATER". Stop the hashtag:

Some of you have noticed that the narrator at the start of my demo sounds rather familiar. Yes, those mellifluous tones do indeed emanate from the legendary Hugo Myatt, of Knightmare fame! He also plays Orthos the Spellmaster, a key NPC.

Some of the very first watersports enthusiasts to visit the crypt were

@Geestargames
way back in 2023. There is a little dithering leading up to the desecration itself, but once they commit, they do so fully. This one really set the standard. 7/10

This is the optimum setting for playing Cryptmaster. To add an extra frisson of risk, I recommend also releasing a venomous snake into the room.
There's only one game I'm playing tonight. It is time to venture back into the crypt.
I'm really grateful I got the chance to test
@thecryptmaster
. It was an amazing opportunity for me while I build upon my testing experience.
Massive congratulations to everyone involved in
