❄️⛸️❄️It was amazing to show the first peek of the game to people at @mivsmagfest.bsky.social ❄️⛸️❄️

Never playing another game of Castles of Burgundy on BGA so I can maintain my exceptional 150% win rate

beaver: got a bad one gonna need all hands on deck duck: (takes drag) what is it this time? another turtle win a race? beaver: put a lid on that shit i got two dead bodies a scorpion and a frog looks like a murder suicide duck: (sighs as he exhales smoke) another day in fucking paradise

The extent to which Games Done Quick has helped to steer the larger speedrunning community - one of the most hardcore video game enthusiast subcultures there is - into becoming something so welcoming, inclusive and supportive astonishes me

Pluribus - the only show made for people who listen to podcasts at 3x and wish they could do the same for TV shows

So if you're going to be doomscrolling today, at least make it a journey through decades of community creativity that helped shaped gaming as we know it. Maybe something you made is in here? doomscroll.cx

“ken let’s play pokémon unite” yes let me just boot it up rq…

SUPER exciting TTRPG news! Diogo is so talented at combining mechanics and text to express specific & evocative gameplay vibes. So much of what I liked about World of Darkness RPGs were the vibes, but the mechanics and presentation could use a fresh eye. Looking forward to a new era

It's cool and exciting to see #StarSpark in Kotaku among a bunch of other cool indie projects! :O #GameDev #IndieGames

maybe i am going insane

A new mass effect postcard for a new N7 day. Have a good one, friends ♥️ #n7day #n7day2025

EVERYBODY! Dicey Dungeons Halloween Special is OUT NOW 🎃👻🎲 (I'm Chipzel and I made it!) fanlink.tv/diceyhalloween

A stunning bit of writing that is simultaneously about cardboard bits & bobs, but also the messiness of Christian history and the even messier reality of making sense of it, and peace with it, individually and together.

THE PURGE but instead of violence, it's a single 12-hour period to get all our petty, shameful complaints out so that we can be happy, well-adjusted people the other 364.5 days of the year.

This is the Steam trailer for Star Spark that I'd been working on! The game isn't done, but just having the store page is a big milestone for me. Wishlist it if you like what you see! store.steampowered.com/app/3639950/... #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieGameDev #WishlistWednesday #Godot

I wrote about what I learned making and publishing Axe Ghost. open.substack.com/pub/tomaszka...

Man, this is a crowded Steam Next Fest for games that would describe themselves as "INSERT_GAME_HERE meets Balatro."

Exciting plans this week, going to check these hot new games everyone is talking about

Alien: Earth isn't the worst entry in the Alien franchise, but I laughed at it far more than any other. Great design and a few great performances are let down by such clunky writing and plotting. Sadly I'm a sucker for Alien so I'll check out any Season 2, but I hope this is it.

Tell your favorite artists you love their work

everyone should checkout Messenger by Abeto. it's a free browser game where ur just a little delivery kid on a little planet! messenger.abeto.co

Japan has a wrestling camp for kids where at the end they have a show match in front of their parents to show off what they learned. Thought you'd enjoy this.

Finished Bachelor in Paradise S10 last night - what a rough season. I wish they wouldn't mimic other shows, but failing that please just pick 1-2 and be consistent. We had to pause because I laughed so hard when they revealed the final compatibility test was purely a contest of physical strength.

If you're an indie developer, you should hang this screenshot on your wall and use it as inspiration to never give up

It is extremely important to my wellbeing that everyone watches this so they keep making Benoit Blanc movies forever. I hope to be in a nursing home, feverishly reading casting rumors about who could be cast as the next Benoit while the franchise re-re-reinvents itself for the 27th installment

Thirty years ago, that dog beat you at basketball. Now it's back to ruin your second wedding. It Didn't Say Anywhere In The Rules That A Dog COULDN'T Play Basketball is this month's comedy horror one-page TTRPG. PDFs, text-only version and "design notes" here: www.patreon.com/posts/it-did...

We're not at the end of the year yet so there is still time for some surprises but here are four of the best game key arts unveiled so far in 2025. We'll vote for a winner in December so if you see any good new ones let me know! Not judging the games, but specifically the key art.

pepitas : trail mix :: ricotta cheese : any dish you decided to put ricotta cheese in for some reason

Amazing writeup on PugLips. If anyone else is on it, my pugbudz friendlycode is LIPPY-TRTL-FA$HO . Especially looking for anyone who wants to grind JCR fliptocks on reputatio streams #hotdogs #jazz

I *loved* Ichiro's speech but haven't been able to articulate why it was so touching. This is a great encapsulation though. That, and he made me feel emotional talking about eating a hot dog.

While board gaming is often caught up in the cult of the new and chasing the BGG hottest list, July has been a month of rediscovering my love for games I haven't taken off the shelf in awhile. A thread of the highlights from the past month... (1/5)

Team Deku spent the last month testing more than forty cases and grips for the Switch 2 in an effort to find the best of the best! Check out our buying guides for The Best Switch 2 Cases and The Best Switch 2 Grips

I reserve a special kind of fury for websites that serve all their images as .webp but won't accept image uploads in that format. YOUR DOUBLE STANDARDS ARE UNACCEPTABLE!

Finally picked up Wildfrost after it reached an all-time low price this week and this game rocks. It joins Cobalt Core as a favorite roguelike deckbuilder that doesn't have "Slay the Spire" in the title. Easy to learn, varied runs, amazing design, and fun dailies www.dekudeals.com/items/wildfr...

After watching the British Open this past weekend I really want to play a golf game but unfortunately PGA Tour 2K25 is haunted

had the big brain realization that you could just whip up a whole D&D cast/NPC list from Whose Line prompts alone

It's difficult to take Cyberpunk 2077's grim dystopia seriously when they cast Keanu as a dude with a robot hand named "Johnny Silverhand." Feels like a first draft placeholder that they forgot to update or the kind of decision I'd have made in grade school writing assignments to annoy my teacher

I have been hyped for MAC Attack for years. It's a fast and approachable miniatures system that offers lots of interesting decisions without being bloated with rules and subsystems. Thrilled to be the first backer

The overhaul of Bachelor in Paradise is such a disappointment so far. A unique dating show is now just "What if Netflix producers made Love Island?" Overproduced and vapid, needless cash prizes and competitions, awful little sketches throughout. It was never the most real but now it's extra fake

How you dune

try and privatize the post office now

girl are you a 96% chance to hit in an XCOM game because i miss you so much

This came up in my reels a few days ago & I haven't been able to stop thinking about it

After painstaking analysis, I have determined the configuration of DLC and base game content for Hitman: World of Assassination that I need to buy on Steam. I just had to ignore the warnings at checkout about buying Hitman: World of Assassination when I already owned it (I didn't)

A thread of demos I've enjoyed from this Steam Next Fest. First up, CLEARED HOT - a extremely approachable spiritual successor to the old Desert Strike series, a fun blend of arcade shooting and tactical combat. store.steampowered.com/app/1710820/...
