Sony ending me starting in 2028 💀

i interviewed mark bonanno of @auntydonnaboys.bsky.social about his new hybrid ARG / film the shadowman's nightmare, which was – quite delightfully – inspired by my personal favourite bit of 2000s web design, the donnie darko website

To fall in love with the games industry is to have your heart broken over and over.

we have succeeded

HELLO I HAVE NO CHILL WHEN IT COMES TO GOD OF WAR LAUFEY I MADE THIS IN THREE DAYS THANKS

"Boy, I miss your mother" "I know she loved you a lot father" "She could perform an air combo when I could no longer do so"

god gave me free will and a pen

NEED the weekend to hurry up because I wanna play Mixtape so baaaaaad!!!

The only good april fools is when a company announces the release of a silly product and then the fool is that they actually release it. No tricks, only treats in this era please.

Oh good it’s the most insufferable two days on the internet again

Look at my son ✨ Pride is not the word I’m looking for 💕 Pattern by @jordandevries.com

Stop worrying about what YA books to let your kids read and let them sort it out with V C Andrews and cocaine era Stephen King as God intended

I want to introduce you all to something myself and @jacksonwryan.com have been working on. A PRINT MAGAZINE about video games and video game culture. We know things have been bad for games writing recently. We're asking, "do you want to Continue?" www.kickstarter.com/projects/con...

While I’m here, Heathcliff is a stray cat. Cathy is a yappy show dog. Linton is a pretty pony. And Isabella is a covid puppy. I will not elaborate further.

No one warns you that in Wuthering Heights there’s a physician character who appears frequently and is only ever referred to as Kenneth. ‘We must send for Kenneth’ ‘Kenneth was perplexed’ ‘Kenneth pronounced her dangerously ill’

Finished a book (loved it) discovered there's a planned film adaption (hell yeah) by my all time favourite horror director (HELL YEAH) and then found out it's been dropped by the studio because they wanted to change the ending (UGH) all in the space of 30 minutes. Oh boy.

Howdy game dev folks! If you need some marketing/comms support with socials, research or strategy I have some capacity coming up 🙌 Please feel free to reach out or amplify 💕 I promise to only make one Muppets themed post per quarter 🫡 katynethercote.carrd.co

It has taken at least a month and a major holiday but the PC no longer makes me think about work 🙌 So I just bought 6 games in the Steam Sale tee hee Unemployment has it's perks!

Who ever this is serving, it’s not helping anything www.thenewdaily.com.au/opinion/2025...

Getting dangerously close to starting a blog because I have a lot of THOUGHTS that apparently want to surface in the space where communication, capitalism, pop culture, nostalgia, community and our fear of death intersect.

Another day, another sense of bone deep exhaustion at the ever oppressive tech that has swept through our industry.

I’m so tired ya’ll

In case you have never seen this.

The sheer volume of utter scum already using this tragic shooting to instil anti-immigrant and racist hatred is truly disgusting.

The Frosty Mini showcase of games made in Australia and Aotearoa NZ is happening NEXT WEEK! ☀️🍦 Here's some handy timezone info to help you tune in: 🇦🇺 8am AEDT and 5am AWST (10 Dec) 🇳🇿 10am NZDT (10 Dec) 🇯🇵 6am JST (10 Dec) 🇺🇸 1pm PT and 4pm ET (9 Dec) 🇬🇧 9pm GMT (9 Dec)

I love stories so much I almost get grumpy when another game/movie/book comes out because how am I supposed to catch up now??

Murph loves a little whistle

Listening to Sarah Marshall’s new podcast The Devil You Know and hearing both @michaelhobbes.bsky.social and @yrfatfriend.bsky.social’s voices in the first episode is my Avengers: Endgame.

Google simply refusing to believe I’m trying to search for ‘Margo Robbie hat’ instead of ‘hot’. I just wanted to know if other folk hated the hat in Big Bold Beautiful Journey.

Thank you @realgdt.bsky.social for crafting such a beautiful take on Frankenstein. It’s the healing art I need right now.

I bring a real ‘I was made redundant last week and am fundamentally uninterested in the merits of generative AI in my field’ energy to the family function that the extended cousins were absolutely not prepared for.

Desperately need a way to tell Apple Music (and previously Spotify) to literally never recommend me a song from a musical ever. Yes, I do listen to all of SIX on repeat, sometimes 4 times in a row - but that doesn't mean I want the 3rd act tearjerker from an off-Broadway darling coming at me raw!

😎😎😎😎 GOOD THINGS CAN STILL HAPPEN 😎😎😎😎

The final Golden Idol DLC is quite literally a mini Obra Dinn and I never thought I’d get to feel this way again 🥹

I promise I didn't plan to wear this shirt whilst getting laid off but god did it make for the funniest redundancy meeting ever (planned and okay - ily5eva my beloved Summerfall)

The duality of man ✨ http://bit.ly/playmalys

Designer: all right Mr. Del Toro here’s those Frankenstein’s monster designs, real sexy just like you asked for. Del Toro: (nodding) this is exactly as sexy as I asked for.

“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡

A bit of Summerfall Studios lore: One day in 2019, and we were all very exhausted and punchy at the time, Liam responded to a long work thread on Slack with "praise Satan" but autocorrect corrected that to "praise Sarah" and the rest of us were VERY confused. Who is Sarah? What do you mean by that?

I cannot express how much this team and this project mean to me both personally and professionally - so I won't! I'll just weep quietly and you can play Malys!! 💕

BRRRR ITS COLD IN HERE THERE MUST BE - AN IMPENDING RELEASE OF A DEMONIC ROGUELITE - IN THE ATMOSPHERE 🔥 I SAID - Light your candles for warmth AND to banish your foes in Malys on October 24! https://bit.ly/playmalys

Who knew writing 7 short form text posts all kinda saying the same thing could be so hard 👁️👄👁️

The whiplash between yesterday and today’s @paxaus.bsky.social cosplays could be studied.

Forgot to mention! I’ll be at Freakon, Tues GCAP and Parallels if you wanna say hello 💕 I will also be at PAX all weekend but that’s cosplay Katy and I don’t know her

I finished my ultimate sad mom cosplay 🥰 God of War Ragnarok Freya I love you forever

Nothing like saying you're 'not feeling stressed at all' about an announcement to make the universe immediately humble you with a major typo across all platforms ✨

And if you saw a version of this that said it comes out on the '24rd' no you didnt 🥰

Professionally researching mystery and deduction games you also want to play recreationally without accidentally spoiling yourself is like its own point and click adventure

It's time to look at FRUIT BUTTS 🍑 SO excited for the team @lil-pink-clouds.bsky.social!! Lets deliver some mail babyyyyyy
