For the first time the adventure game walking simulator I released in 2015, EPANALEPSIS, is on sale for $1. If you want to know what I spent a terrible year working on a decade ago: here ya go. It’s a decent science fiction story! Great soundtrack! store.steampowered.com/app/333690/E...

Island Off Outer Darkness is 30% off — its biggest sale yet — and is just $9.79! Go pick up the game @austinwalker.bsky.social bravely and sagely nominated for an EGOTY and which many have called their game of the year! Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3661790/...

Hey fyi @gracklehq.com is run by one extremely good hearted guy, and it’s still the best site for games industry job listings. It has a patreon that he doesn’t advertise because he’s that selfless. You can support it on patreon and/or kofi

The Marielda t-shirt available on friendsatthetable.shop? That was originally commissioned as album artwork for a Marielda LP with a different merch partner and that whole thing just fell apart.

The fucking odyssey it has been getting this to you. We have been working on this in some form or fashion for like six years.

oh my god i am also DELIGHTED to be Vinyl Launch Twins with CAVES OF QUD

[exhausted, limp like a ragdoll cat] we made a normal one

Look at this fucking thing.

it's hard to express how proud I am of this, and how much work has gone into every detail of this wild project from everybody involved

We've already been blown away by the response to this edition, which serves as an extremely cool demonstration that there's an audience for more physical media releases from us. For now, clarinets sound above the streets of Marielda. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdmW...

3 long years ago, me and @notquitereal.bsky.social @friends-table.bsky.social sat on a call, and decided to do it differently. At the time this was in a small dark office back when @lostincult.co.uk had 3 staff not 40. Well many years and many many prototypes later, here we are!

The work the team put into this is really astonishing. Happy with my little parts, but so proud of @notquitereal.bsky.social, @elemei.bsky.social, and the team at @lostincult.co.uk!

For more information, you can check out our Patreon post available to everybody at www.patreon.com/friends_tabl...

All told, this project has been in the works for six years, and we are beyond thrilled to finally get to show it to you. A very limited number of signed editions are available now, with a second run of 500 unsigned copies to follow. lostincult.co.uk/marielda

This extra-special edition, illustrated by @elemei.bsky.social and based on a concept by @dancynrew.bsky.social contains as its centerpiece an unfolding "star book" diorama depicting scenes from a fateful High Sun Day.

We're so excited to announce that our Marielda 10th Anniversary Vinyl Soundtrack Edition is available to pre-order now at lostincult.co.uk/marielda!

My new essay, on bodycams and capturing the first-person perspective, is now available on Nebula. It is a relatively enormous video and one I am very proud of. nebula.tv/videos/jacob...

You're early morning reminder that the Psi*Run 2nd Edition Kickstarter is running right now and YOU SHOULD BE TO! Running to the Kickstarter to back it, that is.

Personally, if I were one of the Third Way ghouls who helped to hollow out labor, vilify the poor (especially when they’re black), and lay the ground work for furthering private profit over public good, I would shut the fuck up when a new era of young politicians attempted to revive my party.

i mentioned on a stream yesterday that it is taking a monumental effort to be normal in the company comms and PR voice for this. i do not want to be normal. i want to hoot and holler

Tomorrow, June 25th, at 1pm ET/1am PT/6pm BST, we'll be opening the doors to everybody - but if you're a patron at friendsatthetable.cash you can be among the first to see what we've been working on, right now, though we politely ask that hold what you see close to your chest for the next 24 hours.

The Marielda 10th Anniversary Vinyl Soundtrack is now available in 24 hour early access to all paid tiers on our Patreon, along with a 5% discount code! www.patreon.com/friends_tabl...

Jack, the Friends at the Table team and the incredible artist @elemei.bsky.social have put so much time, thought and sustained craft into this release. I can't wait for people to have this art object / vinyl record / immersive storytelling device in their hands, it's a thing of tremendous beauty.

Anti-Prime Day starts…NOW! 🥳 Today through 6/26, enjoy free standard shipping site-wide, all while supporting local, independent bookstores.

i love duskers so much and i am so excited to talk about it

I had the great honor to interview Raph Koster about Star Wars Galaxies, its incredibly ambitious vision for a Star Wars sandbox MMO, and the infamous game design challenge of the "Jedi problem" Thanks @raphkoster.bsky.social for making the time and sorry it took so long for this to see daylight!

We intend this primarily as a way to thank our existing supporters, but if you're interested in seeing what we've made one day early, this will be available to anybody at a $1 or higher Patreon tier!

As a small token of gratitude to our supporters on Patreon, pre-orders for the Marielda Soundtrack 10th Anniversary Vinyl will be available 24 hours early, and with a 5% discount, to all paid patreon tiers! More information is available here: www.patreon.com/friends_tabl...

I bet it feels good as hell for a hacker to do this tbh

Dark Scrolls will launch at $9.99, with 10% off for the first two weeks! Now that's what we call a sweet loot drop. 💎

The process of moving into a new place this month and rebuilding my life as a person living solo for the first time in over a decade has been expensive and hard. If you've been thinking about picking up any of my games, this would be a great time to go for it. store.buriedwithoutceremony.com

This piece by Ta-Nehisi Coates mainstreams how America’s genocide in Gaza is part of our white supremacist history, and that the Dem Party’s continuation of that racist brutality abroad is morally unacceptable. Coates hopes VP Harris’ can learn from this moment: www.vanityfair.com/story/the-ne...

Good morning, if you’ve been curious about the logic game I keep posting about today’s a great day to dive in! Monday’s easy & difficulty ramps up throughout the week. I solved the daily #CluesBySam, Jun 22nd 2026 (Easy), in 02:18 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 cluesbysam.com

they told me to read the poems, so i read them some poems (epic poems) to outline a few of the ways I see Tolkien engaging in that tradition while angling toward an English "national mythology." but what does that entail! Hmmmm

Thats uhhhhh,

Dragon's Dogma is a comedy game

Hullo, hullo! I'm a queer disabled creative and I'm getting evicted at the end of August. So to cover moving costs, several incredible ttrpg designers contributed some awesome projects that you can nab for just $12 for the next month! itch.io/b/3745/taiga... #ttrpg #mutualaid

I wrote about how I discovered that a new site for The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, John Koenig's long-running Tumblr project-turned-book, was a bootleg made by a marketing agency. They published the complete book verbatim, then added AI-generated art and new AI words, entirely without permission.

💯💯💯 truly it was so cool to collaborate with a team like this, from first concepts to logistics and layout and type and i'm trying to talk about this as vaguely as possible, and of course the initial marielda story and soundtrack

as promised months ago when I expected this to be a shorter thing, it's available on a pay-what-you-like basis on itch dot io. been taking a while to finish but I think summer is the right time for it: turndecassette.itch.io/the-prisoner...

10 years of Marielda!!!!

You truly aren’t ready for how cool this thing is going to be. Use this week to prepare.

i truly cannot tell you how proud and excited i am to say that the marielda soundtrack, in a really extraordinary form, will be coming to vinyl in collaboration with @lostincult.co.uk

Could not be more excited for this. Jack, Elemei, and the whole team at LIC have worked so hard on this, and it's SO exciting

This is great. Here's @owenjones.bsky.social basically doing the WKUK bit on TV, but about how in the UK you can't legally say you support the group Palestine Action.
