I am building towards a much bigger game called VAYO that will take maybe 3-5 years of development, essentially Chicago Yakuza with vampires, but instead of fighting as the main mechanic, it is going to be a rhythm game. The first part of this project is a high-art Vampire Diner Dash

Game workers and allies are taking action at
#SaveOurDevs
rallies! Earlier this month, Microsoft reported that they would be laying off thousands of workers across the company – impacting hundreds of union jobs. An injury to one video game worker is an injury to all.

Spent the last few days chatting with queer men in the Love and Deepspace fandom about its homophobia problem, and why some fans are protective of the game to the point of resisting even men who like men taking part in the romance game's community.

Unfortunately, HR made our office manager take this down almost immediately. They said because it's in a common area, it had to be removed. We've used common areas for many things as a team, including fan works, but HR seems to believe that a Celebration of Service is inappropriate.

my whole thing about platner was that if he was dumb enough to get a nazi tattoo and not get it covered up as soon as he learned what it was, he was probably too dumb to run for and hold office. that turned out to be true.
