me watching dredd (2012) the first time: this is awesome me watching dredd (2012) the second time: this is awesome me watching dredd (2012) the third time: this is awesome

yeah ok it wasn’t perfect but i really enjoyed the ending to the amazing digital circus

Took a bit of time off making The Races to have a little reset and to not burn myself out of the project, and returning to it today. Final set of updates and game tweaks before we move to getting Steam ready for both Mac and Windows. #gamedev #TheRaces

Hey fans of #SNLUK, doing a big ol’ survey of YOUR favourite bits across the series! You got opinions, I got a survey. forms.gle/A8auu4kvham9...

Hey SNL UK fans and pals, we’re doing something really special after tonight’s final episode of series 1 on our Discord and you should come be part of it (and tonight’s watch along!) discord.gg/yw3XkEuwV #snluk

Hiya! We've started a Beehiiv thing for our little game studio! We're gonna share loads of info on The Races here over time, so we'd LOVE it if you signed up because we have no idea what we're doing in marketing this game. #gamedev #indiegames #theraces videoclubgames.beehiiv.com/p/hiya

A The Races story: Bought a horse with a loan, trained it, entered it into the next race (4/1 odds!), bribed the two fav jockeys to throw the race… ...my horse fell, theirs didn’t, I got caught for bribery TWICE, and now I have 25 coins left and can’t pay my loan. WELCOME TO THE RACES! #gamedev

Added the Horse Market, so now you can buy horses and train them up so they win you more money if you suck at betting. #gamedev

Unbelievable whimsy and joy today in The Races camp. We have music and sound effects! A music engine dynamically brings stems in depending on how far along the race is. So much fan to put some of my music in as a placeholder to hear how it sounds. Also, I found the 90s Lottery music. #gamedev

Big week this week for The Races now that majority of the gameplay loop is working well enough to move forward. Today we start the building work to move from “running in VSC” to “running OUTSIDE of VSC”. Huge, honestly, this is gonna break me. #gamedev #TheRaces

Made some delicious little game flow tweaks last night to The Races. We use a metric called RPH (Races Per Hour) to try and pack as much into a schedule in-game as we can. For a game played in real time, naturally you want enough going on that you keep engaged without getting fatigued. #gamedev

It has been NINE MONTHS since I last spoke about The Races, my Ceefax/Teletext inspired horse race betting simulation party game. Since then, we had a total redesign and, excitingly, mobile lobby functionality a la Jackbox! #gamedev

started an #SNLUK discord if people like that sort of thing and want to chat more about the show with people! come thru! discord.gg/6h8hvs92N4

late to it but #SNLUK was great, really really great. been a fan of the US one for a long time, and glad that we’re going in a darker tone in places. it’s also not too late, producers, to get me in as your gothy-sarah sherman type writer/cast member.

Hello friends, I want to start writing again so here is a Substack of where I will be doing that. getinterlaced.substack.com

stats fans, is that the first time across any series of the traitors in any country that hits a chance banishment? i think english language versions yes, worldwide i’m not sure. #celebritytraitors

one episode into critical role c4 and i would already die for tyranny or die myself if anything bad happened to her.

I am still very much enjoying Blippo+.

Blippo+ is my new favourite thing, I’m gonna be talking about this for AGES. I am a deep sucker for FMVs, old broadcasting, 80s/90s vibes, and analog video synthesis, this shit is my JAM and I wish I made it first honestly because it’s THAT GOOD.

i hard relate to Midi from Boredome on @blippo.plus because I too am always thinking of aliens.

new jens lekman album is gorgeous

hivemind, i'm looking for a site that i can upload short story writing onto. stuff that works for anthology based work too. wattpad vibes, but feel that's not the place any more. platform building/feedback type deal. any leads? #creativewriting #writer #books

any of yous at boomtown this week? i have a set! it’s gonna be good! come!

i will never not love a jamie xx set. #jamiexx

i am seeing jamie xx today three times

if i said album 3 was more club leaning and less garage, would people be okay with that 👉👈

oh y'all aren't ready for album 3

wow i hear this discord is perfect for talking about hit netflix and channel 4 programme #blackmirror and their mods are cool. discord.gg/bSYmHgsEyK

with 10 minutes to go until new black mirror, enjoy gamifying dystopia with this bingo card i made. #BlackMirror @netflix.com

new game changer is an all timer, god damn it sam you’ve done it again. @samreich.bsky.social @gamechangershow.bsky.social @dropout.tv

PEOPLE WHO WORK IN THE WEST END, ESPECIALLY THEATRE - you gotta go to bloodsports if you can’t go into the phoenix arts club. covent garden. drinks cheap. food service stops at 1:30am, place shuts at 2am. we’ve been going post bum bum train and it’s a lifesaver.

anyway today is equipment check day at work so you bet i have been slamming it down this morning under the guise of “work”

reinstalling grindr has been an experience, mainly in the fact it’s proven my hypothesis that gay people can’t read.

new track! a ukg edit of a girls aloud banger. please welcome OOOOH to the london hatred track discography. on.soundcloud.com/9djy22N4oBRb... #ukgarage #bass #electronicmusic

Don't worry, everyone. I've come up with a solution...

spotify dj: got some music you've been enjoying lately - london hatred up first me: THAT'S ME!!!!! honeysuckle still slaps btw

tracks i quite like (TIQL) - 004 factory floor - between you (2025) AAAAAAH THEY'RE BACK sorry i adore factory floor and so happy they're back #electronicmusic #factoryfloor #totd #tiql

tracks i quite like (TIQL) - 003 jamie xx - dafodil (ft. kelsey lu, john glacier, panda bear) (2024) first heard this in 2020, hasn't left my head since, one of jamie's best productions imho #electronicmusic #jamiexx #totd #tiql

I whisper "Jumanji" every now and then just in case I'm stuck in the game and somehow won without realizing it.

i’ve said many accurate things in my time, but calling the merlin bird id app “shazam but for birds” is the most accurate.

tracks i quite like (TIQL) - 002 verraco - 0∞ (2024) heavy bass, nice switchup at 2:20, it good. #electronicmusic #music #tiql #totd
