"The Art and Secrets of #Karambola" - a digital 92-page #artbook heavily illustrated with yet unpublished sketches, drawings, paintings and locations from the game - is now out!
Agata (@holypangolin) reveals her thoughts on the curious fruity characters’ personalities and backstories, as well as some difficult decisions she had to make during the design process.

The newest game I've been working on, ODGŁOS, is finally available to play! A cute owl, the history of electronic music, shapeshifting snakes and intergalactic journeys inside the Polish Radio Experimental Studio - all in a stop-motion interactive story :) You'll need a browser, headphones and 30 minutes to spare. Have fun!

#Introduction time!
My name is dos; some call me Sebastian. I made dozens of small silly video #games and some slightly less small ones too. I'm one half of @holypangolin studio. Sometimes I pretend to be a musician, but don't get fooled. I'm also a living encyclopedia on a Polish rock band "Perfect". Trams are cooler than trains. The more caramel, the better. I've been using GNU/#Linux on #mobile phones for ages, which led me to work with @purism on the Librem 5. btw I use Arch, but I ❤️ Debian!
SLUDGE-based games are ready for testing!

📢 Cellbroadcastd 0.0.1 was released yesterday 📢

Many thanks to @NGIZero for funding, @agx for involving me and tons of review and @snwh for UI design!
Game Publishers keep dropping support for games they have sold to consumers, leaving the games unplayable.
The "Stop Killing Games" European Citizens Initiative demands the EU propose a law to force developers to leave games in a playable state!
It has reached 500k of the 1m needed signatures (deadline July 31). We need your support!

Hello 🌏 ! We're Phosh.mobi e.V. a small non profit organization supporting the project in building a #LinuxMobile first user environment for everyone.
📣 Liberux NEXX is now live on crowdfunding! 🚀
After months of development and testing, we're introducing the most powerful Linux smartphone: RK3588S, 32 GB RAM, 5G, Debian 13 + GNOME Mobile, and total privacy with hardware killswitches. 🎉
🔼 Now upgraded to 512 GB of storage and European-made.
Support mobile freedom and reserve your unit in the next 30 days:
@devrtz @NGIZero @snwh …and as a service to user interfaces/DEs that don't want to add explicit #CellBroadcast support #cbd can now send notifications. Just enabling the setting is enough.
This is configurable on a severity level so you could use a system modal dialog for high severity events and notifications for low severity ones. This is (likely) how we'll wire it up in #phosh once everything has settled in.
No i po piwie. Znaczy po @piwo -ie.
Najciekawsze rozmowy i projekty:
- Otwarte rdzenie RISC-V na #FPGA na których działa #Linux https://kuznia-rdzeni.org/ @coreforge
- smak wafli krzemowych
- Demo #Bevy w terminalu przez #ratatui (JAK???) @j_g00da
- rozmowa o połączeniu wyrzucania działającego sprzętu z rozwojem dzisiejszej ekonomii
- "sprzedam #mikroskop elektronowy w okazyjnej cenie" @q3k
My talk at @piwo is over.
TL;DR: Free Software won only in limited areas. Even in those, proprietary software is holding it by the throat.
But I forgot about 3 important words:
it's our fault.
It's the software industry that built all this closed software. We're complicit in taking away the control of the world from the regular person.
Hi, I'm dos. Silly FLOSS games, open smartphones, terrible music and more. 50% of @holypangolin; 100% of dosowisko.net. he/him/any. I don't receive DMs.
