Clair Obscur is so good it’s highly likely I’m going to finish it rather than letting it sit unplayed for two years like so many of my other RPGs

Clair Obscur’s “it’ll be fun” note about allowing costumes in cut scenes has paid off. Went into Sciel’s “would you like to…..adventure” scene while Verso only had 1hp, which meant he was covered head to toe in blood when she decided to proposition him.

6 = hype up your snack, eat/say you’re not having a snack and are going to wait for a meal 4+ = grab another snack, roll again 3 or below = put a snack back, roll again 1 = sigh loudly, complain, eat/mourn lack of snack Keep going until you roll a 1 or 6.

SNACK ATTACK 1. Reach into your snack drawer and grab a snack without looking 2. Roll 2d6: if it’s a snack you like take the highest, if it’s a snack you don’t the take the lowest

I need everyone to make a shitpost game that fits into at most 3 posts on here before the end of the year otherwise thr sun will not rise again

My main resolution this year is to play more of the games I have, because at this point I’m operating a small and specialised library where the librarian doesn’t know what’s in the books

Absolutely burned through Case of the Golden Idol, and enjoyed it so much I got the rest of the games/DLCs in the Steam Sale

Watching THE GREEN KNIGHT again

Clair Obscur using the Sir Digby Chicken Caesar panicked run camera on a Gestral is fine art

Played a casual 8hrs of Clair Obscur today, lads

Clair Obscur really testing my obsession with exploring every inch of a map, mainly by not having a map

Surprising no-one I got Clair Obscur in the Steam sale, along with Divinity OS 2 and The Golden Idol

Lo, the Steam sale is here again. How long will I hold out for before I cave and get E33

Blue Prince was half of my play time for the whole year, and I haven’t even finished it yet s.team/y25/hfkpgmp?...

The Xbox Elite Pro controller I got a couple of years ago is turning into an expensive paperweight, so Santa will be bringing me a delayed present of a Steam controller I think

I love the Batman Arkham games but I forget every time what the women are like

So, we have news... Season 3 is in the works. We have been working very hard on it. Wishlist it now! #indigames #gamedev #adventuregames store.steampowered.com/app/3990360/...

I may come to regret this decision, but... SCARF! Sheffield Comic ARts Fair! Next October! Liam "Pais" Hill drew our mascot! Exhibitor application form will be out soon, tables will cost as little as I can get away with! Please remember to apply so this isn't a terrible decision on my part 🙏

“What’s it like being on Instagram” well I just got an already racist ad where the soundtrack was also Christmas music with someone saying the N word over and over again, and somehow that was approved

Hello, it’s me, the person who WILL make you pause the film to info dump about how the behaviour of the action antihero aligns with Ancient Greek archetypes of heroism

[observing someone’s obsessive passion project] wow i really like whatever’s wrong with that guy

Thought Bubble made space for RPGs and joy at the complicated comics festival.

I finished @spookydoorway.bsky.social’s The Seance of Blake Manor this weekend; a well executed mystery, full of subtle horror and challenging puzzles. Loved the mechanics, they were so thorough I think I only had to look something up once?

Creeping around my house like Lara Croft’s butler because coughing has filled my ears with pressure, and simply walking to the kitchen feels like I’m on one of those funhouse wobbly walkways

Post TBub update: talked more across the weekend than I usually do in a week, inflamed my lungs???

cloudflare's on-duty IT staff bangs on the doors which I have padlocked from the inside as I calmly break open lava lamp after lava lamp and drink the contents

THREAD. The definitive list of the absolute best interdimensional portals I have photographed on walks in the British countryside. 1. Gateway To The Land Of Leaping Dogs.

I wrote a whole thing about it that I'm now trying to add into my presentation like an idiot. A pure fool.

The reveal of Lizzie's Light remains one of the most powerful and understated moments of narrative game design I've ever experienced. The whole game had me bawling but this moment of quiet devastation remains singular.

I’ve also indulged in the next best part of comics Christmas: paying a delightful masseuse to manipulate my skeleton like a necromancer.

What a weekend! TBCF is always good and it just seems to get better every year. I am so tired but it was worth it.

A magpie just jumped out of a bush to scare me and then bounced off into the brush cackling to itself. The jesters of the bird world.

Big fun at Comix Christmas, hobbled back to my room as the doors closed to eat cookies in the bath. #tbcf2025

We’ve only done one hall and have already had to consider going back to the hotel to empty our bags. It’s going to be a good @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social
