Dinosaur Polo Club Get Back to Their Game Jam Roots with bite-sized co-op puzzle game RTFM. Out today on PC and Mac for Free via itch io

Put your trust and communication skills to the test in this free, bite-sized, experimental project from Mini Metro and Mini Motorways developers Dinosaur Polo Club. 

WELLINGTON, New Zealand – April 4, 2026 – Released for April Fool’s Day, RTFM (Read The F*cking Manual), is a bite-sized co-op experimental puzzle game from Dinosaur Polo Club, shared under an Alternative Name, “DPC Labs”. RTFM simulates the surreal stress between workers at a fictional corporation called Harmonic Inc, while they work together to process mysterious data. Players must cooperate, or not, to solve puzzles and prevent a ‘decoherence meltdown.’ The game is out now for free on PC and Mac via itch.io.

Best known for Mini Metro and Mini Motorways, both enjoyed by millions of civil engineers, Dinosaur Polo Club shares their first bite-sized experimental project created over a week-long game jam (also coined as Creativity Week in studio) by a core team of seven people. 

“We love game jams!” says Amie Wolken, CEO of Dinosaur Polo Club. “Since before my time, DPC has embraced Creativity Week, a time where you can express yourself in imaginative ways that there isn’t time for in an ordinary work week. During Creativity Week, we spend time making things together but without the constraints of project work, and it’s not just game jams; we’ve had dinos who will paint, or make physical prints, or other wildly cool creative things. RTFM is just one of the awesome results born of the passion and creativity in the team, sparked during one of these weeks.”

In RTFM, office terror unveils its hysterical side as two players work together as Troubleshooter and Operator, solving puzzles and staying one step ahead of a hostile ghost in the machine. The brief, replayable experience centers around social sleuthing and puzzle-solving, a bite-sized experience inspired by games such as Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, and sci-fi media such as classic creepypastas, The X-Files, Portal, and Control. Reciprocate trust and communication to hold reality itself together!

Crack open the User Manual and read the f*cking thing as the Troubleshooter (protip: print it out to help prevent prying eyes from seeing something they shouldn’t), or sit down behind the controls as the Terminal Operator to relay on-screen puzzles to one another. Work together or weave white lies into your teamwork to discover three different endings.

Mysterious consequences are threatened by your corporate overlords as the two players must work together without fear of failstates. Decode one another’s actions as trust either blossoms, or worse, erodes. While reality defragmentation may sound horrifying, the real horror may be in your ear pretending to help. Or in getting a negative performance review.

“While it takes a few years between major game releases, we’re always making stuff at Dinosaur Polo Club,” says Casey Lucas-Quaid, the studio’s Community Manager. “We liked this Creativity Week project enough that we thought other people might, too. And we always do something for April Fool’s, so this seemed like a way to let others have a play with something the team enjoyed making while also getting back to our roots a bit. Mini Metro was born in the Ludum Dare game jam, after all.”

RTFM is out now for free on PC and Mac via itch.io. For more information, visit the official RTFM and Dinosaur Polo Club website, follow the studio on BlueskyTwitterFacebook, and Instagram, or search for #RTFMgame on social media.

SCP: Fragmented Minds Chapter 02 Out Now on Steam

Return to Site-113. New anomalies, deeper systems, and the most dangerous chapter yet

[United States] – April 3, 2026 – The containment breach continues. HST Game Studios, in partnership with indie publishing platform indie.io, today launched Chapter 02 of SCP: Fragmented Minds on Steam as part of indie.io’s Franchise Sale. Available now as a free Early Access update, players can descend deeper into the Martian facility of Site-113, now expanded with new horrors, evolving environments, and the most ambitious systems overhaul yet. To mark the launch, the game is available at its deepest discount to date, 30% off for a limited time.

This new chapter pushes players further into the fractured remains of Site-113, introducing 15 new areas to explore, including the shifting North Wing—a dynamic location that evolves as players progress—and The Forest, a mysterious and unsettling zone built around a major puzzle encounter tied to a highly requested SCP. Every step forward reveals new threats, new systems, and new questions about what truly happened.

New SCP entities and an additional mechanical enemy expand the roster of anomalies, bringing fresh and unpredictable encounters into the facility. From the unseen terror of SCP-966 to the unpredictable presence of SCP-149, each encounter challenges players to rethink survival strategies. Among them is one of the most iconic SCPs, now realized within Site-113, delivering a moment that longtime fans won’t soon forget.

Gameplay is significantly deepened through the introduction of new core systems. The EL2 Wrist Device enables vertical traversal and rapid repositioning, opening up new paths and tactical options. Scranton Reality Anchors allow players to stabilize—or manipulate—the fabric of existence itself, altering moment-to-moment gameplay in meaningful ways. These additions are supported by a new armor system, upgraded and craftable weapons, a full skill tree for player customization, and a dynamic infection system that adds persistent tension to every encounter.

Narratively, the chapter expands on the aftermath of Site-113’s collapse, uncovering more about the SCP Foundation’s failed Martian operation. Through audio logs, environmental storytelling, and cinematic sequences, players will piece together a story that grows increasingly unstable. A new guiding character provides context within the SCP universe, while side content—including the long-awaited SCP-049 storyline—adds further depth and player-driven discovery.

Built directly from community feedback following Chapter 01, this update represents a major step forward for SCP: Fragmented Minds as it continues its Early Access journey toward a full 1.0 release. Systems introduced here will also inform ongoing improvements to earlier content, reinforcing the evolving nature of the experience.

SCP: Fragmented Minds is available now on Steam, with Chapter 02 included as a free update. The game is currently featured in indie.io’s Franchise Sale for $9.99 USD with a limited-time 30% discount. SCP: Fragmented Minds can also be found on the indie.io store. Additional updates and transmissions from Site-113 can be found via the game’s Steam page and official community channels.

Mini Worlds Dioramas Out Now on Steam, Inviting Players to Build Tiny Living Worlds

Create, customize, and explore miniature dioramas at your own pace

[Barcelona, Spain] March 27, 2026 – Mini Worlds Dioramas is available now on PC via Steam, inviting players to jump in and start building tiny worlds today. Developed by Paidotribo the game delivers a relaxing, creativity-first sandbox where making something small and personal is the entire experience.

Mini Worlds Dioramas is built around the experience of creating tiny worlds, one detail at a time. Players can settle in and shape their dioramas at their own pace, placing scenery, characters, and small touches that gradually bring each space to life. With controls that make building feel effortless, the experience encourages experimentation, iteration, and the simple satisfaction of watching a tiny world come together.

Players can explore a range of themed environments, including Sci-Fi, City, Mediterranean, and Western, each offering its own look and feel. These themes give players a starting point, but there’s plenty of freedom to experiment, mix ideas, and build something entirely their own.

As each world comes together, it starts to feel more alive. Weather effects like rain, fog, and snow can be added with a click, while animated characters, animals, and props introduce subtle movement and personality. It’s not just about placing objects—it’s about watching a scene slowly take shape and gain life.

Lighting, environmental settings, and ambient sound help set the tone, whether that’s something bright and lively or soft and peaceful. It’s easy to adjust and revisit builds, making each diorama something players can refine over time rather than rush to finish.

Once everything is in place, players can switch into Flight Mode to move freely through their world and take it in from any angle. There’s also a built-in capture tool for saving high-resolution screenshots, perfect for sharing or simply keeping a favorite creation.

With its focus on flexibility, creative freedom, and atmosphere, Mini Worlds Dioramas delivers a relaxed sandbox experience where players can build, refine, and revisit their worlds entirely on their own terms.

As players advance, they earn points that can be used to unlock upgrades. These upgrades expand combat options and allow players to experiment with different approaches while adapting to increasing difficulty. The core loop encourages replayability through wave progression, score chasing, and optimization of strategies.

All systems and mechanics are presented as part of the full experience available at launch, offering players the complete version of Subway Invasion from day one.
