My 5 year old told me he farted too hard and blew his butthole off and we have to go to the hospital. Anybody know a good butthole reattachment surgeon?

Every time I play a platformer I want to make one. Every time I try to make a platformer I remember that level design exists and I stop making a platformer.

Game failure? Layoffs Game success? Layoffs Game delayed? Layoffs Game delivered? Layoffs Game announced? Layoffs Game unannounced? Layoffs Game good? Layoffs Game bad? Layoffs Game AI? Layoffs Game no-AI? Layoffs Game hated? Layoffs Game beloved? Layoffs Money cares more for layoffs than games.

I had the great honor to interview Raph Koster about Star Wars Galaxies, its incredibly ambitious vision for a Star Wars sandbox MMO, and the infamous game design challenge of the "Jedi problem" Thanks

It’s never about art for these people. It’s about what value they think they can extract from what they think art is supposed to be. Which, to them, is just a product to be bought and sold. They don’t know what art is. They’ve never known. It’s all product mascots and Star Wars.

Do not speak to me of "barriers to entry". Every act of creation is slicing out a thin sliver of light from the existential darkness of the human condition. You not being able to pick up a fucking pencil and risk failing does not even register.

I will not accept an argument that art and creativity have been uniquely democratised in the last few years since the invention of genAI. What a disservice to human history. How little regard you must have for the billions of souls that struggled through unimaginable suffering to express themselves.

I’m sorry but you can’t call it a Metroidvania unless it’s a platformer. If it’s top down or 3rd person it’s Zelda. For fuck sake does nothing mean anything anymore????

Blood Dungeon is the best game ever made and Messhoff continues to be a distant spec along the horizon of good game design, and I will never be able to get close enough so that my cries of adulation will be heard.

If you’re a fan of Control and are apprehensive about Resonant then you might need to seek medical help.
