new year new game!! My friend @aimeehyndman.bsky.social and I just released our debut game through @beakandclawpress.bsky.social! Introducing Adventuring Party Builder, a collaborative tarot-based card game for building characters together in session zero of any high fantasy TTRPG campaign ⚔️

happy new years ya filthy animals

A belated happy holidays! From our Pinecone to your pinehome ✨

Met Sergey Brin and Larry Page at a nerdy movie premiere as a teenager and tried to talk to them but all they wanted to do was Pokémon battle on their linked GBAs and I did not have a gameboy or Pokémon so they immediately stopped talking to me

Was gainfully employed (almost) the whole year! It was spread across four different jobs/contracts, but in this economy I'll still take it!

it's the season's for greason's

My team is hiring narrative designers again! * Entry to mid-level! * Casual mobile games with campy fun stories * Big caveat: after a few months remote, you gotta do a year or two in-office in Beijing! * Pay is low by US standards but great for Beijing or Europe www.linkedin.com/posts/alexan...

This is smart and beautiful, and seems really under folks' radar, which is a real shame. Think THE UNWRITTEN by Carey/Gross, and that's not a comparison I would make lightly.

microfun is hiring again if you are interested in a game writing job that won't lay you off (real): www.linkedin.com/posts/alexan...

Quantic Foundry does legit trustworthy analysis of gamer behaviour, and these survey results are shockingly negative toward genAI, to the point where I’m more hopeful that data driven mobile and AAA backpedals on their uses.

This is incredibly painful for me. I have never asked for help like this before. But I have had people reach out to me asking if they can help, so I am sharing my story and finally asking for help. I've been lucky to have a lovely group of followers here, please share if you can, anything helps <3

fuckin hate this city. rip to my backpack/laptop/passport. if you need me for anything this week, no you don’t.

Calling all sickos www.pcgamer.com/games/rpg/pe...

calling all my TTRPG pals! my friend and I made a card game to turn character creation for new campaigns into a collaborative experience! Coming Jan 1st to itch and DriveThruRPG ⚔️

Larian's horrible hirring process is an open secret in the industry – insane amounts of unpaid work in "writing tests", excessive numbers of interviews, months and months of back and forth, etc. Everyone in games narrative circles has heard the stories at this point, probably from multiple people.

made a lotta latkes tonight

we still need about $800 to cover january rent! retail hours are limited, and side gigs are sparse right now, so this is our only shot at keeping our home. your support has meant so much to us - we're almost there! #MutualAid #gfm #gofundme www.gofundme.com/f/q9d99-supp...

gotta love them goats. what a great night.

I am 100% pro Larian doing whatever pervert shit it wants and I can’t wait for another game where you can like, fuck a squid or whatever, but it really does further drive home the two-tier system of enforcement on storefronts. Bg3 contains basically everything small games get banned for

why on earth would you not call it total warhammer, come on

Here it is...the brand new "Under the Lights" trailer for People of Note, featuring Heather Gonzalez and LEXXE as Cadence! Be sure to wishlist on Steam at store.steampowered.com/app/1626170/...!

Ah this is great news. I’m not sure we’d have Zohran in the mayor’s office without Lander in the coalition. Having him in Congress would be a win

Check it out!! I had a GREAT time this year working with the wonderful team at Drydock on Wylde Society, and it's going to be SUCH a delight! Cozy witchy queer period drama sim, what's not to love? Can't wait for y'all to meet (and romance and/or matchmake!) all these charming characters!

I have been derisively calling them the Geoffies for years. we really need a better replacement name so that doesn't stick. (take it from a narrative designer: your worst placeholder name WILL ship and it WILL suck so make sure your placeholder names are ones you can live with!!)

This is not a drill!! Letter Lost demo is live on Steam!!!!! store.steampowered.com/app/3624790/...

LA hike random encounter: flying type Pokemon trainer

it’s been eighty four years……..

WE'VE ANNOUNCED!!! AAAAA!!!

that very relatable feeling when you and your friends get so emotionally overinvested in your larp characters at summer camp that twenty years later the camp sells official merch making fun of you for it 😌

upside of commuting to an office in beijing: picking up sweet new fits on chinese shopping apps

Wake Up Dead Man was VERY fun and I hope Rian Johnson and Daniel Craig get to make a dozen more of these

it took 25 episodes but gundam ZZ has finally started to get good… at long last the writers made the flip from “wow dumb teenage slapstick in cool robots” back to “war is bad”

deviled eggs with cajun-style shrimp! delicious as hell. (inspired by a recent gastronauts!)

look at my beautiful new child

Many folks are reaching out asking how they can support me so here are the best ways of doing that Links to charities & non-profits I support: @aclu.org @trevorproject.bsky.social @geekgirlcon.bsky.social queertheland.org

Everything about this looks SO good!! This is exactly the kind of game I want to see more of!! Enormous congrats to my pals at KO_OP!!
