Well, doesn't this looks super charming.

Well done to whoever is in charge of the weather dial today. Absolutely gone for it. Hail to fabulous sunshine to extreme wind and back to boring old rain. Give us some thunder and you can take the rest of the week off!

"Lesslie wrote Justin Kurzel’s Macbeth in 2015, and this year’s modernised take on Hamlet, starring Riz Ahmed. It’s possible that Lesslie’s been brought in to add a bit of Shakespearian weight to what is billed as the franchise finale." Finally, someone taking the F&F series as seriously as I do.

This weekend I'm going to watch The Long Walk (2025), The Longest Ride (2015), and The Longest Swim (2014) for what experts are calling "The World's Stupidest Triathlon"

If you're going to make a 21st century Sinclair C5, why the hell not throw in an upside-down Atari logo for good measure

We're now in the third consecutive year of the LinkedIn people coming back from GDC and saying "Things are looking up" because they've all spent a week drinking with old friends and lost all sense of perspective.

BRB, just pivoting the business to providing games for the lucrative "brain cells in a dish" market www.theguardian.com/games/2026/m...

New gameshow idea "Daily Challenge": sportsmen Elliot Daly, Tom Daly, and Daley Thompson compete every morning to complete a run of Slay The Spire.

I was listening to an audio book last night and the reader pronounced "gif" like "jif" and I've never been pulled so quickly out of a story.

That's a wrap on Steam Next Fest! Thank you to all everyone who picked up the Fogpiercer demo and supported the fantastic work that @MadCookiesGames is doing on the game. The demo will remain available on Steam so you can keep slamming runs to your heart's content. 🚂🧡

If you're after sweet, sweet visuals, don't miss out on one of the best human artists around on a rare period of being available for work.

Heavens to Betsy! Off the scale vibes.

Standing room only* for the Bristol Games Hub marketing meet up (*it is popular, but also there are no chairs)

Oh, you make games do you? Well, what are you working on right now? I suppose you'd like to exhibit it at a cool games event in Bristol later in the year? Answer these questions and more (and asked a lot less aggressively) in this great questionnaire, and then maybe I'll play your game at Impact!

Nothing at all suspicious about someone carrying a £2m Fabergé Egg around and then it "getting stolen" and then it "going missing" www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Game of the year candidate for whatever year it releases (I haven't played the new demo but every version I have played is the best)

Me, trying out one of those new fangled AI doctors

I will buy MARVEL Tōkon day one and bounce off it hard on day three when I realise that neither my thumbs nor my brain will never move quickly enough, but I will love it unconditionally nevertheless. youtu.be/uQbnQJ8_mEY

My plans for an elaborate crime were thwarted by the offspring of the star of My Cousin Vinny. I would have gotten away with it too if it hadn't been for those Pesci kids!

Me talking about AI: But all it can do is endlessly regurgitate old material it can never create anything original! Humans:

Steve Martian and Martian Short star in "Only Murders in the Bosporos Planum", coming this fall to Disney+ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosporo...

A wonderful film, and an absolutely terrible year to be in the best adapted screenplay category! *(Hamnet, Bugonia, Pillion, and One Battle After Another)

I'm going to tell you now to buy this when it comes out later. Because hopefully by then you'll have forgotten that it was me that recommended it when it turns out the script is fully of rude words and you get the vapours.

Thunder Helix got a big update today adding 4 color CGA mode + It's now ON SALE ! 🚁 #lowpoly #pixelart #flightsim #steamdeck #gamedev #solodev store.steampowered.com/app/1906230/...

My least favourite brand of YouTube video at the moment is the "You will not believe this moment is completely improvised!" and it will end up being something like David Tennant doing the soliloquy from Hamlet

If only (UNITY) there was a solid recent (UNITY) example of this (UNITY) not working out well for (UNITY) anyone.

ANNOUNCING: ✨ Completely free online events to help #indiedev s get ready for #SteamNextFest! ✨ The festival of the season is just over a month away, and here's what I've got planned for you... 👇

This is exceptionally my vibe, give 'em a wishlist (or I'll kick you in the shins)

Watch The Rip (2025) and tell me it didn't start its life as Joe Carnahan's take on the Bad Boys franchise!

I don't want to make it all about me. So instead of telling you my game of the year I'm going to tell you YOUR game of the year, which was Donkey Ball. I'd like to say I was surprised, but... store.steampowered.com/app/3886410/...

I'm so stuffed after all that Christmas food. But I can't resist these little pick me ups as a treat.

I struggle to have a lucid conversation after doing a single press-up, the way the World's Strongest Mans can do it after deadlifting an actual ton is probably the most impressive thing they do!

Pro tip for owners of under floor heating: putting gifts of chocolate under the Christmas Tree is a bad idea... Every year.

Max props to @connieku.bsky.social for still blasting out such quality content this late in the year.

GAME DEVS. I got tired of mind maps spaghetti, so I built a game design tool that lets me see exactly what I need to see. It lets you scrub dependency depth: see only direct connections, or expand the chain when you need it. This is for people who design games, let me know what you think 👀
