ICYMI: The Sims 4 modding community is disappointed by new 'microtransaction' marketplace

Easily the best GDC since the pandemic started. @danielleri.bsky.social, @kerrblimey.bsky.social, and @gliitchy.bsky.social were amazing to work with. Overjoyed that @carlivelocci.com came to town. The game industry’s thrown us all on stormy waters. This year’s show felt like a safe harbor. 😍

Here's where to find Game Developer's coverage from GDC Festival of Gaming!

Had a lovely chat with Tonda at DICE! Only had a few minutes to speak but I told him how much the letter in the tomb was such a powerful bit of writing.

Well then. After 9 years my role of Editorial Director at Eurogamer/IGNE has been made redundant. If you’re reading this and feel I have a lot of valuable experience (I do), I’m keen to explore any opportunities (full time, consulting, other) in the games industry. I am great.

Pictured: Me realizing GDC is less than 2 weeks away Want to chat @ GDC about something cool you're working on, big or small? Drop me a DM/reply! I'll be running some on-camera interviews from a stage during the event plus chatting off-camera for future coverage on GameDeveloper.com!

This new season of White Lotus about to be craaaaazyyy

A very good evening to everyone except for people who talk during award acceptance speeches. #DICEAwards

“Did you do any gambling in Vegas?” “No but I made @gliitchy.bsky.social paint minis with me.”

The Reason for the Season 🥰 #Tomba2

Wanna bet

I started writing for @gamedeveloper.bsky.social 9 years (!!!) ago this month as a freelance news writer Still just infinitely thankful for the opportunity I was given, & for a team that made it so wonderful to learn and grow as a writer, editor, & person in the game industry over that near-decade

me waiting for this release for the next year

TOMBA 2 LIVES!!! I’m sorry for doubting you, @limitedrungames.com

It wasn't headline news but it's worth noting A Minecraft Movie drove Minecraft to record monthly active usage and revenue during Q4. It underlines why game companies are leaping on the transmedia bandwagon. Even if your movie isn't a box office hit (which this was), there is money to be made.

me, every game reveal event

Depression decided I’d only plant a few plants this year and nature decided to make up the difference with monstrously tall tomato plants with a million flowers.

"...think of Crystal Chronicles as a fairy tale, the old and dangerous sort where children are abandoned in a famine, thorns blind the eyes of noble princes, and little girls are eaten whole by wolves for their naivety, never to be rescued." kimimithegameeatingshemonster.com/2020/08/08/a...

Absolutely knocked it out of the park, the Guthrie production of Cabaret did not pull punches.

Starting to think new Tomba! 2 was too just good to be true 🥲

Living life one “I love your _____ by the way” girl compliment at a time 😎

💥 Today marks the biggest console launch ever, with 14.4 million Nintendo Switch 2 consoles predicted to sell in 2025, according to Omdia. 👇 Switch 2 is poised to outperform the original's debut year, launching into a far stronger market position. 🧵 #nintendoswitch2 #switch2

Whoever gets Nintendo to comment on Staplegate will have my unending respect.

time to reup the first article I ever wrote for aftermath again aftermath.site/how-a-leftis...

Another Switch 2 saved from the Staten Island Stapler.

Who do I have to sell my soul to to get a Proshot of Orville Peck’s Cabaret???

First day back from staycation after a week and a half away; I was so unplugged from online that I only found out about the Switch 2 preorder date from a paper flyer taped to a Best Buy display.

well well well look who it is, the lazy ass ferns that just laid browned and flaccid on the ground all winter wanna get all high and mighty now that its a little warmer outside. i wont forget your true nature now that youre standing erect you little shits

STILL weeping over this, cannot even comprehend how happy it makes me to see GI’s crew and hard work back online.

@thehashtagonist.bsky.social congrats on the win not-localthunk!

Hello I just loudly clapped and woo’d when @alexaray.bsky.social shouted out people who write Fallout Ghoul fanfic @ the GDCAs and it was JUST me.

I’m at GDC, weeping happy tears on the Expo Floor. (Game Informer alumni friends, come catch up at my Game Developer booth near the IGF pavilion? 👀)

We are devastated to see 20% of our beloved colleagues laid off by the same leadership who have yet to recognize our union. We demand that leadership at Sesame Workshop bargain with us over the terms of these massive layoffs. Consider letting them know that you expect the same.

Alright! I'll be heading to GDC in a few weeks so reach out if you want to pitch an interview, share a news story, chat (confidentially) about industry happenings, or catch up over a coffee! Going to be locking down my schedule in the next week or two so get in touch! Contact info is in my bio.

Today is a great day to support BIPOC, LGBTQA+, Women, and Non-binary creatives. Listen to their music. Read their words. Watch their movies. Share their art. There will be a concentrated effort to further marginalize their words and power in the coming years, so fight for them starting now.

Excuse me.

Returning to Society today after a hilariously tragic start to the year. Doing ‘fine’ but 🫠 Spent a month care advocating for my dad at the hospital daily 9-5 after a med emergency and sudden delirium/WE hit. He ended up passing away on my birthday, we got the ‘come to hospital call’ at 12:03 AM.

This is the good stuff, the OG internet - a personal blog talking about some of the best modern RPG Maker games and their design trends / art movements.
