GDC has always been ass, and GDC now trying to further impose control outside moscone to strangle out side events is a sure sign that it's not going to get better. If you're a dev, this sheet is free and will have a higher impact than paying money to go to sf docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

I once had a @sokpop.co hat for 1 day before I lost it

Hi! I was laid off from Firaxis this morning. I wrote leaders and civs for Civilization VII (NDA for now) and Deadpool and Storm for Marvel's Midnight Suns. I also wrote the award-nominated Hindsight. I'm available for full time, remote work starting ASAP. DMs are open: emmkid.info

For those who missed it yesterday: jwaaaap.substack.com/p/happy-15th...

Look, I know which game you are going to play this week but Arco is only going to be 50% off for the next couple days, you should get it and play it later.

Yey yay go go!

I had to rush that drawing so much! Thank you so much everyone!!!!

Bitsummit was great! It was amazing to finally show the Neverway demo and watch people play it! I'm very proud of the team, of what we made and I hope to be able to show more of the game soon!!

It has been decided. It begins. Neverway releases in 2026 (PC & Switch). Wishlist now on @steampowered.com

That's very close to the Neverway team

Question: let’s say, hypothetically, you want to pitch your game to a publisher. Is it smart to post wip’s of your game before that (and gather a following) or to keep it secret so they can announce it and have something special? What do publishers want these days? 🤔

All I can say as I look to the north from the Netherlands is you can vote for whatever you want as long as it's not the conservative side thank you :) they privatized healthcare in the Netherlands, you know. I have to pay a 2000 nok/month bill in order to get healthcare. Do you want that shit?

There might be some bloops made by yours truly here as well 🥸

I love my current gig with @bippinbits.bsky.social! If you go to Gamescom you might see some of it in a booth somewhere! :3 (I get to draw silly stuff for a fantastic game, in my silly style, it's fantastic)

We were in a Steam Daily Deal the other day and it's nice to see some new people and find out the game is still good :) Still 50% off!

The sfx are by Martin Kvale (who's not on this site). They are almost all from Bad North, I just borrowed them for placeholders Realistically I'm still trying to suss out whether the core concept has potential and to do that I probably need to make a brief tutorial and I'm procrastinating on that
