my dear friends over at moonshot are raising funds for CASA to support immigrants in maryland! if you donate $5+ you can enter the ghost bundle raffle and win some stickers and a digital copy of haunts from me (along with other prizes!!) tiltify.com/@moonshotnet...

tbh as much as official rereleases are good for accessibility, I also feel like a lot of people just won't play games if they don't have official versions and that's not great for culture. Everyone should be downloading random ROMs until they find that special one that breaks their brain wide open.

Genuinely probably the most important game in the world no one has played. If people actually emulated stuff instead of waiting for official rereleases we'd probably have the world's wildest indie RPGs coming out of this right now.

You’re really uncool if you use AI. If you SELL your AI trash, and especially don’t disclose that you’ve used it, you’re a loser. Thats the rules.

If it’s not too early for this annual reminder: remember not to give one single penny to these guys this Christmas.

The find is Monsters, Aliens and Holes in the Ground by @stuhorvath.com What an incredible find to spot the second I walked in the store

the silmarillion is in many ways the homestuck of its day

That feeling when you find a great book the SECOND you walk in the store

If anyone is running charity games to give money to food banks feel free to reach out to me

Imagine going to court demanding for the right to starve both your people and their children for no other reason beyond malice.

Literally every video game news outlet is covering and playing this game like it’s nothing to be concerned about and I’m so fucking disappointed

hey friends. I’ve joined over 60 other content creators on a team for @feedingamerica.org. $1 = 10 meals, meaning even a single dollar donation will help de-enshittify the holidays for hungry families. give if you can, boost if you can’t. thank you! ❤️💪 teamfeed.feedingamerica.org/participants...

Indie Game Roundup (November 8, 2025) virtualmoose.org/2025/11/08/i...

I am older than gender markers on passports! How do you regulate gender? By making it a form of government ID. It has nothing to do with state security, only regulation

As I block someone on TikTok: If you use Generative AI, I don’t want your opinion on anything. It means less than nothing to me. Your taste is rancid with the corruption of billionaires and empty of thought and interest. You are alike in critical thought to a rock on a lake shore.

Did you enjoy Blue Prince? Do you feel like being a genuine hero? Iggy, one of the lead playtesters for Blue Prince, needs a kidney. Reposting for reach is a great way to help - or, could that be you? Who knows what magic the internet is capable of ✨ Let's try to help connect the dots here!

To be very clear, The Gauntlet is an unabashedly queer-centric publisher, our games put themes of queerness and gender front and center, and our founder and operator (me) is a gay POC. Our values are in every single page of our games.

It's been so long since I've done an interview for the podcast, but chatting with Adam was a great time

A plea for help. 🙏 One of the lead playtesters of Blue Prince, Iggy, has polycystic kidney disease and has only a few months to find a living kidney donor. His story, contact and donor information can all be found on iggyland.org Please help us in sharing his story and getting the word out.💙

The most basic argument I can give you for ditching Spotify for *anything* is Spotify, uniquely, pays *nothing* for much of the music on the platform. Is there *any* improvement in paying for Spotify over pirating? You're a paper-thin moral slice away from buying music from a bootlegger. Why do it?

hello game dev community, i am looking to interview a few people who have been in the industry for 5+ years and are comfortable in the role they chose for themself in their career. i want to hear from everyone, producers, engineers, narrative, community managers, etc. !!!

I make things because I can be honest and nuanced and messy through the things I make. It’s for my own self expression and sometimes if I’m lucky, it’s to feel seen and to connect with the audience. And other times, I also make things for money and recognition when it’s necessary.

The number of times over the last year that I've thought "oh maybe I should actually read LOTR", this is a freaking sign

I hope everyone is also excited about this, because I'm not gonna shut up about this when it's out

It's been so long since I've done an interview for the podcast, but chatting with Adam was a great time

Okay, new idea for Fabula Ultima: Every new campaign, randomly decide one Bug for your game. Fast travel points actually charge you double, the third potion every combat is free, dealing exactly 59 points of damage in a single move insta-kills any enemy

🐻🥤✊🪧

Somehow I am most flabbergasted by zero bugs ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT ARE YOU REALLY

“0% woke shit” a black man with a physical disability leads an environmental terrorist cell trying to save the planet from mega-billionaires and you play as a cross dressing twink femdomed by two different women ending and the final boss against the gayest angel of all time

I’m live on Twitch, babes 💜 It’s been a rough day and I’m feeling a little fragile, so change of plans; we’re playing Egging On today! twitch.tv/aspecificegg

why would anyone pay $1000 to go to the game awards when the obvious intended way to watch it is to take an edible and shit-talk over the whole thing with your friends in discord?

I think if you review an early access game, you should commit to coming back and revising that game every six months after. There are early access games that start weak and grow to amazing games. There are early access games that start strong and burn out.

I am now flush with PAX Unplugged exhibitor badges. Do I have any mutuals going that want one?

Good literary translation requires understanding (language, culture, genre--on both sides of the translation) and an ability to write well. "AI" can't do that. There are no shortcuts. Treat your work and foreign language readers with the respect they deserve. You won't fool anyone with this.

Hey let’s get Sam a job

This this this Who gives a shit what Tommy YouTube Gamer said about whatever game. Did you play it? What did it make you feel? What did you think about it? There's literally no wrong answers

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

Fuck it, this last month has been one struggle life event after another without a chance to breathe so I'm gonna ask for help. This barrage has truly kneecapped me emotionally so if you can help, I appreciate it more than you know <3 www.ko-fi.com/Anoriand

Let us cook!! Tonight @peachyaenne.bsky.social and I are joining The Great Palian Potluck. Come cook up some rewards with us! We'll be checking out all the new @playpalia.com updates and offering up the new Twitch Drops! Twitch.tv/FaunAndGames

It's time!!! Independent Games Festival judging is wrapping up and thus comes my list of IGF Games I Want To Talk About for the year! As usual, I'll threadpost this later (maybe tomorrow) but people willing to click on a link can read it in full right now on my blog! auratriolo.com/blog/2025/11...

The biggest thing i've learned as an artist who sells prints and merch is don't make what people ask for. They won't buy it. Make what you, the artist, want to see printed on the support of ur choice. I can't explain why but THAT'S what will sell. People who buy the most are the silent ones. 🫶

Semi-related but uhhhh if you want to GM a live streamed game (one-shot or 4-8 ep campaign) but don't want to produce it, hit me up because I love producing streams for my channel but I don't think I can GM *and* produce right now.
