Forever. ❤️

A great time was had. I'm very happy, and very tired. I need a nap.

This got nowhere near as much love as I'd hoped. Literally the first thing I thought when I looked at this was 'I need mattermorph'.

'ZZAP! Live!' tomorrow. Event #2 of 2026.

This is excellent and really interesting. Well worth watching.

I need Mattermorph right now @destinythegame.bungie.net @bungie.net #Destiny2 #EdgeofFate

As a warm-up towards this weekend's ZZAP Live! event, tonight's essential viewing is Heart of Neon.

Snap Judgment from the Peanut Gallery, please. A (black), or B (grey)?

See you Saturday! Stoo and me showing UrbX Next and Amiga😎 I will have books and very cool posters to sign🙌 www.tickettailor.com/events/fusio...

Worth looking into if you're interested in this playtesting initiative. I've just done so and the questionnaire is very quick and easy to complete. Go for it!

I've been quietly working on my fitness over the last two weeks, working out every day, bar one rest day, and I feel great. I'd forgotten how much of a boost exercise gives me.

Playtime's over. Back at it.

If I ever make a game, then the place it was born is this baby shower igloo tent we hired for my sister-in-law.

A day off from testing today as I attend a family event. So have your day in the sun, bugs... ...because tomorrow I'm coming for you.

One of the many great things about testing is that I get to see builds ahead of a lot of people, and I can tell you sincerely that I've got some crackers lined up. But shh! It's a secret. 🤫 In the meantime, check out the crackers available now via: pauljamesgamestesting.com/projects-2/

There are two weeks left to submit your game for Brilliant Indie Treasures (it's free!) to showcase at our event during #DevelopBrighton! Apply now: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScnTf9KubdfP3rw_FENpv8UWYQUH_r6hUzccGYF4Wfunlh_zg/viewform#DevelopBrighton #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

Today we swap out the last relic from the original Curse of Resthaven prototype remaining in the build. Feeling wistful! Thought I’d share this clip from an early version, back when the governor was but an oblong sausage. Hey #gamedevs: show me your roughest of rough drafts if you're up for it!

Yep, that was fun. 😁 Back to testing.

Taking a small break from testing to play Destiny 2 for an hour. I will never get bored of seeing this ship load up.

15 Days: Part 25 is in draft.

Me figuring out how to use a dirty gym rag, a lighter, and a stick of chalk to save the day. 2 days until you start doing the math on Nintendo Switch!

Take a listen to this great interview with one of our lead testers, who's also worked on Blue Prince, Cryptmaster, and so much more!

These are some of my very favourite games and @joerichardson.bsky.social should be encouraged to make more of them! I recommended locking him in a dungeon and forcing him to work but @akuparagames.bsky.social seem to think it's better to keep him financially stable. Whatever.

This week I was a guest on a podcast that focused on the topic of QA and, despite a few nerves, I think it went OK. I'm so happy and grateful to have a chance to talk about this key area of game development. ❤️ open.spotify.com/episode/061M...

Spreading the post across the timezones... Oh, and do feel free to spread the word :)

I booked the day off work today and have a long list of things to do. But, despite being energised from Debug, I'm tired. So, sometimes, for my own wellbeing, sitting in my garden, in the sunshine with a cold pint, and looking up at the sky, while the world goes on, is just what needs to be done.

(1/4): I've arrived home after a fun weekend in Norfolk and attending the @debugmag.com Games Festival. Lots of catching up with lovely people and a few demos played too. Got some good stuff to put in my next 15 Days blog. In the meantime, please follow the shenanigans of these brilliant accounts...

It feels like a very good time to roll this out again. 💙
