As I look at the news I keep seeing stories about how a handful of humans are on their way to orbit around a cold and lifeless rock. And as I look at the news I keep seeing stories about how a handful of humans are on their way to making this planet a hot and lifeless rock.

Don't take the words, images, and news from Gaza for granted. The duty to help Palestinians connect to the internet—an inherent right, and a crucial connection to the world—persists. Help Crips for eSIMs continue to connect people! A 5 sponsors one eSIM! Make it monthly! bit.ly/esimsUK

Okay. An important moment for us, if you’ll indulge me with a repost. It’s time to start the very first whisper of noise about our next game. It’s a mailing list! But it’s a mailing list that I’m hoping will be a bit different than what you’re used to. mailchi.mp/bithellgames...

"Hinterlands" (1981) by William Gibson

iterating on chip capacity was a mistake. half a century ago they did this same trip with the computing power that needs to display outlook's current icon.

look at those three Goodfishers, ready to put in an honest day's work

I need to make sure @jannouna.bsky.social sees this. Excited to see another game in the @narrat.bsky.social engine.

I've been waiting so long for a decent version of this meme

Our lead designer, @sofy-k.bsky.social, wrote up the process of investigating and developing the death rituals for Ambrosia Sky! There's some fun old, old prototyping videos in here, as well as lots of insight into the process of one of our most interdisciplinary parts of the game!

New youtube video! this one is about body horror, dungeons and dragons, and rolling 3d6 in order. It's the lead essay in my new zine which is also available on itch right now! youtu.be/Of4I8bUxY9E?...

we can do you mystery and yuri without the dreams, and we can do you yuri and dreams without the mystery, and we can do you all three, concurrent or consecutive. but we can't give you mystery or dreams without the yuri. yuri is compulsory.

I've written a book! Next Level: Making Games That Make Themselves is the story of procedural generation - the tech behind games like Minecraft and Dwarf Fortress. It's about how it works, the games that use it, and the art and magic behind it. Out May 7th, in bookshops: linktr.ee/next_level 🎲🔮

I know, my friend, that it is disheartening to remember that six years later Covid is still here, but know, my friend that it is heartening to remember that six years later you are still here too.

I guess I love to create places that I can't visit 🍃

One of the earliest examples I could remember was Jell-A, the mushroom who gained consciousness in @gutefabrik.bsky.social's Mutazione. They were also the first character who I recognised as nonbinary.

I think we can actually just call them "hangout games" we don't have to keep using the joke phrase that some guy on the nazi website came up with

My world, my Earth is a ruin. A planet spoiled by the human species. We multiplied and fought and gobbled until there was nothing left, and then we died. We controlled neither appetite nor violence; we did not adapt. We destroyed ourselves. But we destroyed the world first.

Always love to see Signs of the Sojourner mentioned, one of the most fascinating games I've ever played.

this is ecocide

@czamboni.bsky.social beat me to the punch! This was under wraps until, I guess, today. Anyway CMU Press is publishing an updated and Very Deluxe version of my game and I could not be happier. Art by Sam Araya!

God Bless Our Dead Marines by Silver Mt Zion is an incredible song. "They put angels in the electric chair / The electric chair, the electric chair /And no one knew or no one cared /But burning stars lit up their hair."

At least they’re not spending it on avocado toast and coffee, that would be morally bad and worth shaming

I'm really glad that 404 Media correctly called out the "Proton did not provide any information to the FBI" line as disingenuous. It's not a good sign when a provider is more interested in playing semantic games than realistically explaining their threat model.

shout out to bluesky's lead programmer who dipped his mobile phone in his pool to 'cool it off' and then didn't understand why it broke

I just played this really great piece of interactive fiction by @harps1.bsky.social (thanks to the @narrascope.org showcase shortlist). Its little quirks and choices in the pacing gave off that freewheeling summer vibes. Very well designed. harpsi.itch.io/10-games

The group of fans creating this has decided not to promote on Twitter, so please help me help them extend their reach so they get lots of folks signing up to contribute. 💜
