Today is my father’s birthday. I’m reminded of the love I had for him and the weight of his absence. Zau was the only way I could make my grief real. Some days I hate it for that. But his true legacy was brilliance, inspiration, love. Happy birthday old man. I love you.

Proud of this team. Dead Take just crossed 500 reviews on Steam 🌹

Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it. Huge thanks to the @surgentstudios.bsky.social & Pocketpair for bringing this vision to life. That’s TWO personal, critically acclaimed games in a tough climate and we’re just getting started. Bigger, bolder, better next 😘

Fashionably late to the party (like Chase Lowry): here's my Dead Take interview with @abubakarsalim.bsky.social We discussed the hair-raising performances @surgentstudios.bsky.social got by putting talented actors like Neil Newbon and Ben Starr front-and-centre! store.epicgames.com/en-US/news/d...

You requested for it, we deliver. You can now continue before the Point of No Return & collect everything you missed as well as watch all those tapes of your favourite people. Love me a bit of repeated Neil Newbon and Ben Starr action I do. ;)

talked with @abubakarsalim.bsky.social about his new game, Hollywood, and why AI sucks: "To have this idea of a generation being brought up on computer generated, weird AI slop, it's terrifying. You're all gonna start thinking the same.” www.wired.com/story/house-...

I love the fact that I’m on the same podcast interview episode as Vince Zampella with @skillup.bsky.social and @lucyjames.games as he talks about Battlefield and I’m chatting about Dead Take. Send them 100 million players over here babe ;) Thank you for having me!

On this week's Crewcast, Ninja Gaiden Ragebound slashes its way into Frank's heart, Jeremy digs deep with Mashina and Heartworm, Danny shares the latest game from Surgent Studios, and the crew try to figure out if Battlefield 6 is the future of FPS games. youtu.be/rvzbV8DuaCw

Dead Take is a surprise standout experience from Surgent Studios. It's got a stacked cast with a focus on storytelling over anything else, using the allure of Hollywood as the gateway to unconventional horror. Review: www.consolecreatures.com/dead-take-re...

Dead Take is out now on Steam. As is this face on YouTube.

Got to do a one on one with @abubakarsalim.bsky.social to talk about Dead Take, a phenomenal horror game starring a bunch of people you know and love. www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6z6...

I’m doing a Reddit AMA about Dead Take on r/gaming TODAY at 4PM BST (8AM PT, 11AM ET) Get your early questions in now and I’ll see you soon!

I watched @jeffbrutlag.bsky.social play Dead Take last night on stream and it was great. I don’t usually want to buy horror games, but I would fuck with this one. The cast acted their faces off (esp Neil & Ben), the story was good, and it stuck the landing (which many horror games fail at IMO).

Thank you @radiotimes.bsky.social Dead Take is available to play now! Get it on Steam.

I loved this interview. Abubakar Salim from @surgentstudios.bsky.social talks about how Dead Take came together, the FMV performances, and more. Super interesting stuff. It's crazy that this game came together in only 7 months!

A game about the dark side of acting requires actors who can deliver, and Dead Take from Surgent Studios and Pocketpair Publishing hits the mark with Ben Starr and Neil Newbon. They are a perfect fit for this intense game. @icopartners.com www.gamesmarket.global/games-and-pr...
