Otra de esas últimas veces. Pero esta vez, no quise decir adiós sin tratar de capturar un recuerdo. Probablemente no volvamos a ver esta vista de Querétaro.

I deeply miss city life. That will not change… but I think I’ve at least finally found a way to inhabit that ache instead of burying it. This is the first piece I’ve made where I actually feel like kind of an artist, with something to express.

Dear musicians, Why the HELL are you not only subscribing to Spotify, but sharing links to your music there? Why are you helping this company grow, despite them throwing you under the bus every single chance they've had in the last decade? I legitimately can't wrap my head around this.

For a while I've been noodling on a taxonomy of decision types. I'm not convinced it's fully baked, but I already have been using it successfully in my design process, so I thought I might share it here in its current form. At the moment there's 5 types.

¡Se pone bueno el versus! Si no has probado Pancito Merge, ahora es cuando.

"Game dev is one of those jobs you only do when you really want to. It's not going to make your parents proud, you're unlikely to get rich in an industry that lays off people for making superhits, and its a demanding & confrontative job. Why would you let a machine do the thing you're here to do?"

The Mike & @ramiismail.com Are Still Here podcast is 6 months old! We did a deep dive into how it's going, including listener stats, which episodes have done best, and our upcoming plans. It's like one of my old Twitter threads, but for a podcast mikeandrami.com

¡Felicidades por los 400 programas! Del Bit a la Orquesta es un programa único en México y el mundo, por la clase de contenidos que aborda. ¡Y así lo sigue demostrando!

The cat is out of the bag, @mvisual.bsky.social and I will be making games from here on out. Here's @lstestudio.com's declaration of intent, and entry to the Manifesto Jam 2026. #gamedev #indie

This is why I want to fucking scream every time a studio says "we just use it for the initial concept design phase", or whatever. Like, congrats lads, you've eradicated the most creative, exciting part of game development.

The newest edition of The Ball is Wild 🪩 newsletter features an editoral on the wonderful Devils on the Moon pinball videogame made by @amanogames.bsky.social 🤚 for @play.date 🟨 buttondown.com/TheBallisWil...

False Awakening is the name of our freshly released demo for Virtue and a Sledgehammer. It has that name because it features content exclusive to the demo that you won't find in the final game 👁️

I wrote a manifesto for making games, and (not) selling them, for #manifestojam illomens.itch.io/no-one-is-go...

Técnica: chicatana sobre auto, en la lluvia. Aprendiendo de @mvisual.bsky.social por ósmosis.

Relevant: we make free narrative tools for multiple engines, and we don't use any genAI whatsoever--not for coding, not for writing, not for anything. When it comes to middleware that people build their art + livelihoods upon, quality (and labour solidarity) matters. yarnspinner.dev/blog/why-we-...

Revealing Signet City is a slightly vertigo-inducing experience because it's been hanging around a long time just waiting for me to let it back out to wreak havoc...

So... if you skipped the showcases, I announced a new game on Sunday night!

Hey, I made a new game, check it out on my itch! It's a Tetris Attack like with some extra "tools" for grid manipulation. fayer.itch.io/pom-poku

Well... I also like to draw. Practicing again for upcoming projects. #inkonpaper #sketch

Este bundle tiene algunos de los mejores juegos mexicanos a la fecha. Personalmente recomiendo mucho RKGK, Pato Box y Pancito Merge, pero hay algo para todos los gustos.

Board games and card games I managed to snag at MEGA XP, Mexico's biggest tabletop convention. We went there to launch our printed guidebook of Mexican games. Thanks to @jinxcf.bsky.social for recommending Kyoto no Neko ages ago! That and King of Tokyo Godzilla are the only non-Mexican games here.

Today on Mexican radio show @bitorquesta.bsky.social we'll talk about @jumpovertheage.com's Citizen Sleeper and how its systems and mechanics relate to the tabletop space. We'll also listen to the contemplative soundtrack by @amosroddy.bsky.social. Live at 4pm (GMT -6): www.rtq.mx/100-3-fm-qro/

I can be grateful for a lot of things, but also I wish for better times. My sweet cat, Tango passed away three weeks ago, his absence still weighs heavily on our hearts. While the world is on fire, I just want to focus on my creative work and my little family. Hoping for the best. #Photography

@mvisual.bsky.social es la mitad importante de Mega Mixtape. Su voz, fotografía, animación y ayuda en la selección musical, le aportan toda su identidad y calidad. Ella les asegura que aunque el podcast está en pausa, el trabajo continúa. ¡Muy pronto podrán escucharla en un episodio muy especial!
