Some of my games include Apocryphauna, a game made by myself and @clairemulkerin.bsky.social. It's about being a middle school aged student at a religious boarding school who collects forbidden trading cards to summon a demon who can end the world.

Hey! Could me and my girlfriend @valerie-dusk.itch.io get added to this? We've made games such as Apocryphauna, a horror comedy adventure game in which you play a teen at a religious boarding school who becomes obsessed with a cursed trading card game.

At some point I want to make a complication of streamers trying to pronounce "Apocryphauna."

Hey Revy! Definitely giving you a follow. 💜

If you're looking for indie gems, me and my girlfriend made a short horror comedy adventure game called Apocryphauna! It's about being trans, religious trauma, and trading card games!

Been getting a lot of new followers lately, time for a reintroduction. My name is Claire. I love art and I love boobs. I make queer AF video games and ttrpgs. They're sad but also funny. And gay.

Also, I GM a monthly ttrpg podcast called Binary Break. It's about digimon-waitwaitwait DON'T GO!
selfie of Claire, an adorable goth trans girl with big sparkly eyes, hair that's dyed blonde and also auburn in places right now, wearing all black, honestly she looks like kind of a mess in this picture but it still works Art of Witchmon (from Binary Break) by Claire. A tall and thin feminine digimon with pink skin, blonde hair, and sharp teeth curved up into a joyful and wicked smile. She wears a point red hat, a short red dress, a leather jacket, fishnets, and boots. Her hands are ENORMOUS, with red fingerless gloves and long black fingernails. She holds a broom in one hand. Perched on her shoulder is a thin black cat digimon, wearing a red bandana, covered in scars, and missing an eye. This is Nekomon. A logo for Claire's ttrpg Digidice. Close-up drawing on a green-haired anime girl with pigtails, adjusting a pair of goggles on her head. Text reads: Digidice, A Digimon fan ttrpg A logo for Apocryphauna, a horror comedy video game Claire made with her girlfriend Valerie. An image of a school desk in a... dungeon? Dark and moody and mysterious. A knife is stabbed into the desk. A symbol is carved into the desk that looks like the midpoint between a pentagram and the letter "A." Inside the desk are what look like trading cards. Written across the top of the image in a jagged black and magenta font is the word "Apocryphauna."

Just got mine today! Presumably this booklet lists the games in order of quality, because Apocryphauna appears first! I mean...can't think of any other reason why that would be the case, right? 🤔

@valeriedusk.bsky.social Hey, this is Anna, we met this morning. I played Apocryphauna this arvo! It was really neat, I enjoyed it a lot. It really spoke to my experiences of growing up in a cult with no understanding of myself or what I could be. I loved the black comedy, too. Thanks for making it!

My name is Valerie Dusk and I'm a queer girl that creates weird nightmare games. I also do a lot of freelance low poly/retro styled 3D work. Some notable projects I've created are Apolysis, Apocryphauna, and Pillar of Rust.
https://valerie-dusk.itch.io/
A screenshot from the game Apocryphauna. In a chapel with stained glass windows. There's a nun and a fem student with glasses in the scene. A screenshot from Apolysis. Taken from a high vantage point, looking down on the player character. The setting is a derelict factor with large machinery to the left and right, large multipaned windows with light cascading through, and stairways leading to catwalks far above. A screenshot from the game Writhe. Looking up at the black sky. The enviroment is in a derelict city with walls and buildings covered in bright red vines, there is a subway car leaning up against a far wall that's also covered in vines. Red cables are strung across walls and buildings above. Valerie Dusk Retro 3D Commissions: Props starting at $40, Character Models starting at $100. Can do rigging, VRChat Avatars, VTubers, renders, and more. Will not provide any work with NFT, Crypto, or Blockchain related projects.

If you're looking anthologies of games and 'minimum production budget' isn't a requirement, I'd highly recommended Indiepocalypse, the monthly game anthology I've been publishing for the last 3.5 years!

Even been funding new games for the last 2.5 years! https://itch.io/c/689872/indiepocalypse
Illustration of vampire clawing at it's face among a rocky landscape. The word Indiepocalypse is written at the top. Low resolution screenshot of a schoolgirl and nun in a chapel from the game Apocryphauna. A quiet and empty city street from the game Our Jubilee. A mushroom collecting hermit in a forest with a frog on rock in a lake. From the game Mushroom Season.
