What a finale! Thanks so much to @alt254.bsky.social and @chouxsalad.bsky.social for hosting and @nyugamecenter.bsky.social for putting together another amazing No Quarter! See you next year!

had the great honor of playing on the little baby apple team at the hexidecipadathon on saturday!! this was the craziest tetris match i’ve ever played what a great time

The tournament deserves a full analysis but the semifinals between @boshis.place's Little Baby Apples and @wonderville.nyc was ELECTRIC! Luckily @ma.lloc.ca clipped the final moment feat iconic commentary by @lainenooney.bsky.social: "WELCOME TO NEW YORK CITY BABY!" www.twitch.tv/nyugamecente...

In October I got obsessed with importing Deadlock's map into Unity to use as a playground for coding experiments. Here's some pics from that journey!

Finally, as if a week of events wasn't enough: SATURDAY NOV 22 at 7PM NYC's pile of weirdo/artsy/indie game-makers hosts the 14th annual NO QUARTER exhibition of games, with four never-before-seen works of play at a big party. RSVP for a free ticket WHILE THEY LAST: noquarter2025.eventbrite.com
