The Mason Scale explains our thoughts on AI much better than we ever could: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEGK...

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”

Today, once again, I saw an indie studio owner defend GenAI as inevitable. I want to say once again: no, it's not. It's only as inevitable as you want it to be (especially as an owner) Do smaller, be smarter, don't use this shit.

Jagex: "We spent a lot of time early last year looking at what we were doing, asking ourselves if they're the right things and making a lot of changes in terms of company strategy." Indeed.

Hooded Horse's Tim Bender, about abusive publisher contracts: Many games "had a fine launch, but it wasn't good enough to overcome some giant recoup term where the publisher was taking all their money back first." Also: "AI is cancerous." I like this guy. www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

Some of my early visual development of the lighthouse from Keeper.

In a world of AI slop shortcuts in gaming, I am reminded that for The Friends of Ringo Ishikawa, the developer's 60 year old father learned pixelart in MSPaint to help make the game If it matters enough to you, you can always learn too, even at 60

It’s Loom producer Greg Hammond’s birthday today! What a great occasion to announce my upcoming Techs Play session with him on January 30 @ Noon PT: youtube.com/watch?v=... Want to know more about Greg in the meantime? Watch my 4-hour chat with him here: youtube.com/watch?v=...

Nice news article about EARTH MUST DIE's imminent release (only 10 days now!) and how a strong VA cast can give a game a bump these days. (Although of course the writer is interested in it regardless thanks to Size Five's pedigree, because he is a very smart person!) www.pcgamer.com/games/advent...

Four exhibits being enjoyed at @retrocollective.co.uk today

The intro from "Another World" still manages to impress decades later, which is why I feel like it's nearly impossible to describe emotions one felt upon encountering it 35 years ago for the first time.

"we USE ai, but our game wont CONTAIN it" is a clarification that no one has ever cared about & now CEOs are using it as a wedge to get their foot in the door as a part of a long term plan into normalizing AI, just like how 'it's just placeholder' was used with E33. dont cede even an inch of ground

New book cover for my novel “The Little Things That Kill: A YA #ParanormalMystery”. Why a new cover? The original (which I love) reads MG rather than YA. I’m also thrilled to announce my novel is a #BestBooksof2025 (by #KirkusReviews). What an honor! www.kirkusreviews.com/book-lists/b... #booksky

Machine-learned AI is terrible for idea generation. The algorithm is designed to *produce the most predictable next token* Even as you try to push it to originality, it fights you and tries to pull it back to the most average tropes. Its a PREDICTABILITY MACHINE.

From the woods was the first Midnight Scenes games I knocked my chair down jumping away from the computer as I played on a dark and stormy night with my big comfy headphones. It really is a great game.

If you like horror games give this a shot. It is bite sized but packed with flavor.

Bigger version of that very early lighthouse concept, where it navigates through the graveyard. It changed a lot, but the core idea stayed.

I will not be watching The Game Awards tonight. I encourage you not to as well. If you'd like to support developers, watch their trailers online and wishlist their games (or pre order!) We do not have to participate in Geoff's love letter to capitalism. You do not "have to hand it to him."

We had an Overwhelmingly Positive score on Steam, then these two reviews rolled in Why does Valve allow this?
