I use GitLab pages for app landing pages and it works well for these simple static websites. They even work with Let's Encrypt to get you setup with SSL.

What doesn't work great is every time I set up a site I have to retry the SSL setup several times until it sticks. I review all the steps, check it's all correct and mash that retry button. Eventually it works. Always takes several tries. Once it works it keeps working fine.

Moderately annoying but worth the cost (it's all free)

Princess Ursula is released on Steam!

It's a small game but it's been a labor of love over a long period of time and despite its small budget, I'm really proud of the result.

It's on sale too! Not expecting a hit but I hope it can bring a smile to some players.

In this week's newsletter, I talk about how, after weeks of prototyping, we decided on which game to make. Read up, it's free: https://newtonarrative.com/news/all-systems-are-go/

One of our interview series for this week's archive article - from when we sat down with Aure, indie game writer and developer of the Roadwarden and Tales from Windy Meadow. Exploring how he created his Viaticum setting and the themes in his work was hugely interesting for us, and might be for you too!

Another thing that surprised me: according to the stats, three players managed to perform a combo with 14 numbers! 14! It's crazy, I don't even know how you managed to create that configuration haha I love it

Should I write a (PDF) manual for Minerva Labyrinth, with things like detailed rules, puzzle hints, and default party bios?

To anyone out there who’s successfully convinced someone else to switch from a mainstream app / service to a self-hosted / indie / #FOSS alternative:

What worked?

Pitching this kind of switch could become a core part of my business soon. I’d love to know what aspects of such a change have the broadest appeal!

(Boosts much appreciated )
