I don't know who needs to hear this but DO NOT go to the gym on an empty stomach! Man that was a bad time.

I'm 50/50 on whether or not Stranger Things had a fake ending. I am 100/0 on the current ending being massively flawed and being very disappointed if it wasn't fake.

We don't talk enough about how reality literally has a magic system already. Electromagnetism is the magic system and it's extremely cool. We build artifacts to harness it and write spells to make it do what we want.

Please don't let your kids on Roblox.

If you dislike an entire medium you are probably wrong.

Had a great first playtest of a new prototype the other day! #gamedev #boardgame #tabletop

Watching the game awards right now. I am a hater and I'm proud. AAA is so dead to me.

The thing no one mentions about "giving it all that you've got" is that eventually you do.

@marcelineleiman.bsky.social You probably already saw your SUSD shoutout but I thought this was cool! youtu.be/uDpntcra6VU?...

Just found out Rockstar layed off a ton of people. Unironically boycott GTA6. I am so sick of these megacorps that own money printers treating devs as expendables.

We are at @PAXUnplugged and all set up for tomorrow. Swing by booth 4305 to see our games.

I'm calling it. HL3 tomorrow.

If you still care about "graphics" in current year you probably don't have taste.

The fact that Valve is shipping a more "Apple like" product than Apple in the VR space is so funny to me. Imagine being the engineer that decided ADDING tungsten weights to an already heavy headset was a good idea while you have a battery tail already hanging off of the device. So embarrassing.

Maybe after a sweeping victory in elections you would think the Dems would actually stick to their guns.

I love #Hyperbeat so much.

I’m not a super strict “no spoilers” person, but I’ve watched about a half a dozen horror movies this spooky season with zero knowledge going in, and it has been such a joy to have really no idea where it’s going.

a lot of what i see being called "libbing out" is just people starting to believe that good things are in fact possible

I feel like I say this every year but I really need people to hear it. Halloween is the best American holiday. Just kids outside welcomed into their world, marching around together, showing off their costumes to the elderly, parents meeting parents, neighbors catching up with neighbors.

HYPERBEAT is OUT NOW!

just realized last week is already 3 months ago

Yeah, totally! So on the bottom there are two thin L brackets to hold the weight. I slide them between the base and the lid. Then, at the top is a very strong magnet. I tape a metal plate in the bottom of each game and the magnet holds them upright.

Thanks! It's a custom project I did so that they are hung, but can be easily removed and played. I showed some photos and went into detail in this post: bsky.app/profile/afis...

Never been this owned before. Can't believe I got this dude to record this and post it.

A story in two parts.

It's actually more fun to argue politics on twitter than it is here. You guys are just as based in reality as the maga people and just stumbled into some correct positions.

I was supposed to release my current project today. Since that's not happening it's time to make a new development timeline I guess. #GameDev

I wonder if there are more progressives with far right friends or more far right people with progressive friends. Or rather if the average number of far right friends for a progressive is higher than that of the opposite case.

It's so easy to write bad fiction. It's remarkable that there's any good fiction at all.

Does a strong sense of taste necessarily come with a strong hate for many things other people like?

The fact that "it's" isn't possessive is such a crime.

I'm just going to say this. Governments having the ability to use force is a good thing. A good government is a representation of the will of the people. The alternative is individuals using force on each other which is clearly worse.

Game design and game development are not the same thing.

Insane.
