Saw this, a competitive eSport sim where you just flip coins. Has a demo but looks like it'll have ranked and multiplayer when the full game comes out which I'm curious to see store.steampowered.com/app/3730790/...

If you need to talk about the current games industry news or want to see a person play Silksong slower than any other human, I got you www.twitch.tv/viking_blonde/

Look, I'm not gonna do an 'I Told You So' about the EA buyout or the rampant sportswashing happening in games right now (doubly so for eSports) I'm just sad for all ghe incredible studios owned by EA who are about to be gutted for profit

Just putting a $55 Billion dollar valuation in context. Thats about half a Nintendo. Thats just under one third of a Sony (in its entirety including music, movies, TV, games, manufacturing...) Thats over 35 Ubisofts.

I'm not even going to hide the pitch, y'all know I'm obsessed with this game: Let me tell you about @siristhedragon.bsky.social's Project Silver Fish, live on Twitch Dot Television: www.twitch.tv/viking_blonde/

It looks like I'm feeling well enough to stream proper, so I'm stealing @littlefireee.bsky.social and we're doing No, Im Not A Human on that website: Twitch Dot Television

Well this is extremely worrying and bad:

I share other people's indie games more often than our own, so for once, here's our one! Please wishlist Forbidden Solitaire if you fancy playing a cursed CD-ROM game from 1995. store.steampowered.com/app/3414580/...

No lies detected:

Its 48:05 till someone says 'Until Dawn'

I am legit angry about the Deus Ex 'remaster' looking worse than not only a 2012 texture pack, but worse than the original

Aspyr have offended me personally

If y'all still want to talk about GDC or the deluge of incredible games that came out _just today_ I'm doing that, live on the internet no less: www.twitch.tv/viking_blonde/

I poured extra rum for this-IS THAT THE FORNITE FONT?!

In a way, I feel for GDC In just two years the US games industry has been obliterated (not to mention the US itself) and its two main selling points are lost Kinda like E3 before it, it's no longer a big part of the ecosystem

THE BEST「GO LIVE」ALIVE IS LIVE! You need that post-donation glow in your soul, and we are giving that feeling away ALL DAY today! twitch.tv/chorbySP Please help support a student in need!

Sometimes taking a break from the horrors can be strategic and necessary I'm going to build Gundams about it

For the record, I _didn't_ beast a bottle of MD 20/20 and play Let It Die all night ...but the idea was there

that endless feeling (for too long now)

This Sunday is my first ever Subathon to help raise funds for this school year. A few gift subs can go a LONG way towards helping me going back to school, especially during Twitch's Subtember event!

Another great showcase by @sixoneindie.com. Here are some of the games you missed out on if you didn't watch. The big hitter of the showcase for me was Penguin Colony. The follow up to Umurangi Generation puts you in the Antarctic and the mouth of madness. store.steampowered.com/app/3695930/...

Shoutout to whoever puts 'Silence Randy' in the Borderlands 4 post-mortem

Can you believe it?🤯 Game Devs of Color Expo 2025 kicks off today! You can do a virtual AMA with our special guests in Gather, kicking off at 11:30am. It's not too late to get your tickets, so don't miss out on networking, panels, our 2025 Direct, and more! Our event is open to EVERYONE🙌🏾

And if the genAI stuff sneaks into public assets, thats a stink you cant simply wash off Users will be bringing that up for years to come

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

I do worry that for how much I shit-talk bad AAA publisher business that people think I dont support the homies to work on huge budget games The C-Suite is trash, but y'all are excellent

Yes, like 98% of Twitch, I'm streaming Hollow Knight: Silksong (Skong to the cool kids) but first I need coffee and to talk about the EVO situation Or whatever else the games industry has thrown at us since I went to the supermarket

I really don't think y'all non-Longship folks understand how much of a grip Project Silverfish has on me

Mentally, I'm here:

I'm finding it extremely funny that Waterpark Simulator on Steam is denying using AI Images on their store page (even locking & deleting threads pointing it out) Have a look at this picture and tell me what you think:

It's Bandcamp Friday so if you haven't already, do yourself a favor and pick up one of the sickest RPG soundtracks out there spellmynamewithabang.bandcamp.com/album/purgat...

Just remember: People will be posting a million BS opinions on Silksong to farm clicks today. Think of it like April Fools Day for shite bait

Yes but also please don't quit your day job right now:

Getting back to Tunic, now with gifted home made flash cards AND @fangamer.com's physical manual

ah well, nevertheless

...we have the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever:

I hate that I called this The tl:dr is that Qiddiya is the Saudi Investment Fund's tourist city A full take over could see EVO moved from Vegas to Saudi Arabia

TODAY @ #PAXWEST I am holding court in Frog Theater. Wake up you sleepyheads, because at 1:30pm you can't afford to miss [Game Like A Librarian] where me and my smartest friends are going to expose the Information Science within Video Games and touch your innate inner librarian!

Day 1 of PAX West complete🧡🔥. Coffee, friendship and making video games @willovergard.bsky.social

And I'm happy to repot that as of Thursday afternoon I haven't had to add anymore booths to the #PAXWest AI Slop list

Its nearly PAX time If you find me just know will talk about Gundams, Project Silverfish and why Gen AI Slop has no home in our space

"I don't care what anyone says, I LOVE that movie."

We're talking pre PAX, AI Slop Spotting and games industry banter if you wanna join us: www.twitch.tv/viking_blonde/

Ok, first version of the #PAXWest Gen AI Slop Booth list is up: docs.google.com/spreadsheets... This is primarily from the exhibitor's list and publicly available info. If you know about something I've missed let me know

Working on the PAX West 25 AI Slop list and its _amazing_ how quickly people will tell on themselves

The indomitable @saydlen.bsky.social made two Dive Kick controllers We shall use them to do battle, live on Twitch dot Television

Did I spend $6 to start watching season 3 of PeopleWatching right now? Yes I did. And you should to (If you can)
