Come for the crunchy space mining, stay for the corporate exploitation.

It was inevitable, wasn't it🙄 Of course the Telegraph would run with something like this👇 So let's remove some of the rose-tinted spectacles and also look at some of that data comparing 1976 with modern heat waves Because the 1976 nostalgia porn is wearing a bit thin at this stage 🧵1/23

Yella Fella. Doesn't look completely slimy, but also not completely mushrooms. Any ideas? #slime #mycology

At some point someone's going to have to address this Innsmouth shit the fash have got going on.

I do not want to play long RPGs but for some reason they're always the games with the aesthetics and worlds I want to explore. Just finished Banquet For Fools and it was really cool and unique, but I'd like to play a shorter game now, please.

I'm looking for a part time, paid gig. I can make unique, hand-crafted models, scan them to 3d (high poly or lower), give them a basic rig. If you want to make a game with my unorthodox, IGF/ Indie Game Awards nominated art, let me know.

1/3 of the game industry has lost their job in the last two years. Ubisoft closed two more studios today. Everyone is out of work. To that end I'm starting a new bundle to benefit a layoffs hardship fund. Game devs: please consider submitting your PAID games to the bundle, which will launch in July.

I'm led to believe that the Prime Minister has actually issued a statement about last night's pogroms. But in order to read it you have to have an account on the combination far right propaganda/child abuse image website run by the US billionaire who has called for a fascist coup in Britain.

Something cool is about to happen. Can't quite believe we've got this far.

Ooo is that a bandwagon I see? 👀 It seems we're all posting our submissions for Voice Actor of the Year from the recent One Voice Awards so here's mine 👐 Didn't make the shortlist but I'm more than ok with that looking at how absolutely stacked with talent the shortlist was 😍 youtu.be/7Co6P80BkmA

hey you, time to go to the gym (and leave a review) store.steampowered.com/app/4573210/...

This launch has been an emotional rollercoaster. Also I had at least 4 big anxieties before we shipped that are now gone. Some real talk: 1) Will people like the game? I thought it was good but you don't know until it hits the general public. Yes they did, phew. One anxiety gone, poof! ...

In line with Israel's continued adherence to international law, it took the opportunity of the ceasefire with Lebanon to bomb Lebanese emergency response centers, killing two medics and a civilian. The Guardian rep-oh wait no it doesn. BBC repor-wait no that's on Eurovision. CNN re-nope.
