Screenshot Saturday Roundup (March 3, 2024)

Squeezing in one more roundup of things I saw on non-twitter places since I’m now self hosting and can actually embed Mastodon links now. I just got excited and wanted to try it for myself. It should make doing these a lot easier too.

Every week there’s a new gif from this game on Masto and Cohost and it still looks great

This looks like a nice little puzzle game that just came out

Waterpark tycoon game! Hell yes, sign me up

Part 1 of a retro looking EGA adventure game was just released for free

Here’s a clip from another EGA looking adventure game.

There was a lot of stuff on Cohost/Mastodon/Blue Sky that looked very nice to me with the Screenshot Saturday tag. Let’s take a look!

I’m interested in this solarpunk city builder that I just found out about last Saturday on Mastodon

Even the menus for Kitsune Tails are looking very charming on Blue Sky, Cohost, and Mastodon

I also just learned about Settlemoon on Cohost. I really like the colors it’s using and apparently the game is already out!

I like this game’s aesthetic. You can follow it on Cohost and Mastodon

Axyz looks like a puzzle game I’ll enjoy with its vaporwave aesthetic. I saw this on Blue Sky.

I got grumpy about it feeling like outlets covering #ScreenshotSaturday are only doing it for X, which is just a dying social media platform for the far right at this point, so here’s some of things that I thought looked pretty neat elsewhere. Some of the posts have multiple images, so click on the links to see more. I only got Blue Sky, Mastodon, and Cohost this week but can check out other places like Tumblr, Instagram, and Threads in future weeks.

I’m excited to see Eldritch 2 development going smoothly on Mastodon and Bluesky since I loved the original.

This fan project is looking pretty lovely on Mastodon, with a lengthy post on Cohost explaining development of the game as well.

I continue looking forward to The Crimson Diamond, a point-and-click adventure inspired by games like The Colonel’s Bequest. (Mastodon, Blue Sky, Steam)

Tearcell Games has a nice looking Godot tech demo for a rpg (looks much better on Mastodon)
