A little late to the party* here, but I just finished Cabernet and it was wonderful! If you're a fan of narrative games, this is one to check out. I love choice-based games where I can make informed decisions but still be pleasantly surprised =) *Introverts make the best parties

I wonder if Rockstar leadership envisaged this kind of response when they decided to fire 30+ workers in a union?

azhdarchid.com/against-metr... I really do hate the term 'metroidbrania'. I think so do many of you. Let's nip it in the bud before it becomes something people are financially invested in.

If you care about games, I hope you also care about the people who work hard and sacrifice so much to make them... Only to be tossed aside. People Make Games is one approachable way to learn more - this video is about GTA, but check their backlog for more. youtu.be/c9nOwjeznjI?...

I spent some time with Elemental Flow, and it's one of the most refreshingly interesting and thoughtful games I've played this year. A mature exploration of the nuances of emotional growth, and the difficult conversations that come from it. And you can now try it out, for free. Which you should 👇🏿

Alongside Elemental Flow's demo release, I wrote a short blog post. Given how Argentina is doing at the moment, I think it's useful to think about how things could be, in ways that still resonate with the soul of the city (at least my experience of it). teawithflo.com/2025/11/05/e...

"It’s not pushing pacifism; it’s about what interaction can mean beyond harm... These aren’t just 'safe' games for kids; they’re clever, inventive, and often deeply emotional experiences" Amazing review from @thevideogamelibrary.org. Thank you! thevideogamelibrary.substack.com/p/book-spotl...

No more Black or trans staffers. No politics of any kind. The cowardice of mainstream media isn't just insulting, it's *boring.* Now TV is just like any other beauty rag. Why not just kill it quickly? Why the slow-motion pretense?
