We got the footage! The shoot went really well yesterday, now I just need to decide if I'm keeping the moustache…

This wasn't always my favourite year for various personal reasons, but two standout memories were being selected for the BAFTA Breakthrough program, and joining John Konsolakis as he won an Ivor Novello for the Farewell North soundtrack after four years working together.

Wednesdays by @wednesdays-game.bsky.social, @exaheva.bsky.social. @thepixelhunt.bsky.social The most impactful game by far this year, a game that's simply essential to experience. I doubt I'll ever forget Wednesdays. store.steampowered.com/app/2747770/...

I’ll see yall next year ✨

People get hung up on "I don't know how to write a good review" but honestly you don't need paragraphs of analysis and observations. Don't compare yourself to a journalist. "I loved it!" or "I had fun" are equally valid reviews, AND matter just as much to the Steam algorithm to support game devs!

I loved a lot of what I read this year, but a few standouts in no particular order: - A Short Stay in Hell - Penpal - The Lies of Locke Lamora - The Haar - As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow - Children of Paradise - His Bloody Project - The Witcher Series - Pet Sematary - Ghost Story

This game is absolutely beautiful and full of passion and emotion. One of the best games I've played this year and it lives rent free in my mind. 10/10 recommend!!

I played a demo of this at (I think) the Glasgow Indie Game Festival. Really nice wee game!

Really enjoying Dead Reset! Very much Alien inspired with great performances and an intriguing time loop setup, though I do wish the interaction points were a bit more frequent.

i think if you use genai for anything, even writing an email, you're both a moron and a huge baby, and i dont want to play your video game as a result. its not that hard!

Every year my wife and I have a highly competitive Nutcracker paint-off, and every year she wins. But not this year. This year, I brought references. Wish me luck!

This is awkward, but as of yesterday I'm no longer employed with Nightdive Studios. I'm currently looking for full-time work and would be happy to share more info via DMs. I'm also open to freelance work!

I read a lot but have awful memory, so this year I started jotting down quick thoughts, key plot points, what I enjoy/dont, anything particularly interesting. Just a few words between chapters. I find I'm retaining much more and also building a much stronger sense of what I appreciate in writing!

Farewell North is sooo so so close to the 500 reviews needed for "Overwhelmingly Positive" but reviews have also slowed quite a bit, so if you played and enjoyed the game then please consider leaving a review and I'll love you forever 😌

Seeing The Grinch in theaters tonight and I'm going to be awfully disappointed if the trailers aren't all early 2000s movies

placeholders should be so bad you can't miss them or so adequate it wouldn't matter if they shipped. terrible or legally unusable assets which blend in are liability and sign of negligence also these placeholders rule

I've only just seen the trailer for The Free Shepard, and I'm telling you right now that if this game looks like your jam you NEED to go play Farewell North by @kylewbanks.com. Like, immediately. I realize that I didn't talk much about the game when I played last year, but I think about it A LOT.

trying to understand how this was already (but also, only?) a whole year ago

Icelandic folklore tells of the Yule Cat that terrorizes children if they don't have new socks for Christmas. folklore does not specify whether the Yule Cat is adorable or not, tho. ❤️🐈‍⬛
