@MishyFishyWhoo 👀

We are gearing up for our debut with Dig Too Deep! A rad game about throwing goblins at your problems. It just so happens we released our Demo today on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4280850/Di… I am seeing if anyone in my ol' network wants to collab and help a new studio get on it's feet.

Hey! It's been a while! What has Mishy been up to? Well, after being laid off (oof this industry right now amiright!?) I became co-owner of a Game Developers Cooperative!💥 Punch Up Games is made up of workers across the industry who have been displaced by AI. 🥲 Wanna help?👇

@Steam 🎮 Wishlist on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4280850/Di… #SteamNextFest #IndieGames #RogueLite #TowerDefense #WorkerCoop

Goblins are the answer to everything! 💥 The Dig Too Deep trailer is here! Wishlist on @Steam and play the free demo during Next Fest June 15-22. Built by a worker-owned cooperative. No venture capital. No AI for creative work. Just chaos, goblins, and a whole lot of heart.

Moms who deal with tiny chaotic goblins every single day deserve a medal...or at least some chocolate. 🍫 Happy Mother's Day! 💐 ❤️

"Rebellions are built on hope." Co-ops are too! Every share, every vote, every worker-owner is a small act of believing things can be built differently. Happy May the 4th, from Punch Up Games! 💥🥊 #StarWarsDay #MayThe4th

This May Day, we celebrate builders and creators. People who pour their hearts into the games you love.❤️ We're going keyboards-down in solidarity with workers and union movements everywhere, because the values that built this co-op are the same ones we're fighting for today. 💪

Factories. Systems. Optimization. Changing the games industry from the inside out. ⚙️ Torr sees Punch Up Games as more than a studio. It's a chance to prove that passion-first game development is not just possible, it's better. #IndieGames #GameDev #WorkerCoop #IndieDev

Dig Too Deep has some updates! The playtest is available now on Itchio: punch-up-games.itch.io/dig-too-deep-f… Don't forget to add Dig Too Deep to your wishlist on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4280850/Di… Join PUG's Discord, and tell us what you think!

Bootstrap spirit. Creative ownership. Community first. 🧙‍♀️ Michelle joined Punch Up Games because building something meaningful from the ground up is not only exciting, it's needed. #IndieGames #GameDev #WorkerCoop #WomenInGaming #IndieDev #GamesIndustry

Big decisions should be made by people who care deeply about the craft...not boardrooms. 🎮 Brian is all about putting creative power back where it belongs. Community over corporate. Always. #IndieGames #GameDev #WorkerCoop #IndieDev

Once you've seen how the AAA sausage gets made, sometimes you just have to go build something better. 🏴‍☠️ Jason's bringing that hard-won experience back to the heart of why games matter in the first place. #IndieGames #GameDev #WorkerCoop #IndieDev

What if every developer actually had a say in how the studio was run? 🗳️ That's not a hypothetical for Gabe...it's the whole point. Worker-owned, community-driven, and built on fairness from the ground up. #IndieGames #GameDev #WorkerCoop #IndieDev

Art deserves to be valued. 🎨 Carrie is proof that you don't have to burn out to do brilliant work, and she's bringing that energy to everything we build at Punch Up Games. #IndieGames #GameDev #WorkerCoop #WomenInGaming #IndieDev

Behind every great game is a team of real humans with real stories. Soren wants to pull back the curtain on what game development actually looks like, and build a studio where YOU care about the team as much as the game itself. #IndieGames #GameDev #WorkerCoop #IndieDev
