Last Day!!!🍁🍂

Can't wait to play the full version of this banging horror game demo: "Father" is a psychological horror game with an awful patriarch, puritan values, dark secrets and things lurking in the woods. youtu.be/Toshdm0wkdk Wishlist on steam: store.steampowered.com/app/2588830/...

Horror peeps: Excavation of Hob's Barrow and Strangeland are excellent October choices for beautiful pixel adventures down nightmare alley. As always with Wadjet: high-quality voice acting!

I make breakfast. I power up my PC to log on on to write video games. The president says he wants to unleash the military to kill U.S. citizens on American soil. I respond to a few emails. Gotta take inventory of what still needs signoff before script lock on Friday.

Thank you to everyone who has commented and recommended Carnival and Snarl, I'm very thankful for the support! Carnival could still use some reviews from players if you are feeling generous, it would be lovely to get to 50 by Halloween mwahahaaaaa! store.steampowered.com/app/2928770/...

Meanwhile, this gal's fancy is hardwired to soup all year.

Finding typos in instagram comments that I told myself not to post in the first place are aging me faster than smoking ever could.

My Stomach Hurts and I Wanna Go Home [classic literature]

Jonathan Ajayi as "Smee" in "Alien: Earth" is my favourite performance by a mile. It's a strong cast but he makes me see the child in every scene, his physical acting is spot-on.

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

To add to this great advice (but more in general and not about a specific game): easy modes are there for a reason - to enjoy a game that might otherwise be frustrating and stressful for some people. There's no need to please internet strangers when you play video games.

this preview also features @samseder.bsky.social who appears in the early pages

Anyone know what this is? Because I want one, too and escape to the demon realm.

I did it, I hacked the algorithm. Instagram just suggested I follow Werner Herzog.

Cut & saved from X/shitter:

This looks so good! Hand drawn, cults and a dope soundtrack? I am in! #Gaming #Horror

Live your life such that everyone doesn’t spend ten solid years planning the rager they’re going to throw when you die.

just a fundamental a priori everyone likes to skip over here, “why the fuck is the tool pretending to be a person and why is that my responsibility to emotionally regulate about”

Carnival is out now on Steam, with a 15% launch discount and a bundle with Abscission (which can activate if you already have Abscission). "When I seek another word for music, I never find any other word than Venice" - Nietzsche Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/2928770/...

I know, I will be cackling about this for weeks.

me looking for the person who keeps making me get in fights on the internet

I was going to have a moan about various things. Instead, here's Riker and Data, setting phasers to grill.

We all have that homie who swears that the weird mass of stinking meat in his basement was an angel he caught.

***squeeeeeeeee*** One of my readers' favorite novels has just been reissued with this AMAZING cover designed by Rachel Ake. If you loved THE REFORMATORY, this is the novel I used to say is my scariest. You be the judge!

Siren's Rest made me feel so many emotions (mainly terror) and was such a great addition to Still Wakes the Deep. It was scarier because underwater everything is scarier. Cried at the end and am truly happy I got to experience this story even though I mixed up all the names and connections :D

I am finally watching the Star Wars sequel trilogy and can't believe people sent death threats over this. Bunch of aggressive clowns still getting mad over a trilogy that was no Shakespear to begin with. I wish people could dislike something without turning into screeching assholes.

I actually got teary-eyed looking at these. Reminded me of childhood, reading big illustrated fairy tales from all over the world.

Arctic Awakening launches September 18 for PS5, Xbox Series, and PC First-person narrative adventure game Arctic Awakening will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and Microsoft Store on September 18, developer GoldFire Studios announced.

Make subs, not war ✌️☮️🌯

Ginormous recommendation for RPG and horror gaming fans, This prototype is so fresh, fun and unusual, I had a blast. heartcasegames.itch.io/nightfall-be...

I wonder if Jar Jar Binks was also so hated because aside from everything about the character, he was full CGI. No charm of a beautiful costume or puppet which always was a strength of the Star Wars universe.

A reminder: migrants do not have to be “grateful” or “successful” to be able to live safely. We are entitled to freedom regardless of whether other people like us.

These days, make sure you're really buying what you want to buy online. Also, if you see news that a favourite author has written something unexpected, unless that comes verifiably direct from them or their publisher, double and triple check that it isn't one of these increasingly prevalent frauds.

girl would you love YOURSELF if u were a worm

I should say this more often but it's gets tiring, but: please share the game, link it to a friend, etc. It is by far the most effective way to spread the word for niche games like this.

We need to teach people the difference between being uncomfortable and being unsafe. Because the discomfort of the safest people is endangering the most vulnerable, all day every day.

PSA that THESE are the sorts of reviews that do matter - the ones we gamers write! Indie game developers like the creator of Rosewater below need us to voice our appreciation for their games on Steam because that's the only way they can achieve the "Overwhelmingly Positive" threshold+ stay there!

Happy for him but I kinda hate that every single story like this always comes with a book and a social media account & sponsors. Everything is a business, no one is doing anything anymore just for the experience.

I love the new Superman movie, it's so bright, fun and, despite Gunn's dark humor, full of humanity. Also, I was mesmerized by Supe's cape, it looked so clean and bright, it really fit the new non-gritty interpretation. Great work by Judianna Makosvky, legendary costume designer.
