there should be more deductive reasoning games

my problematic fave is Spotify Wrapped, i LOVE seeing other people’s Wrapped, please show me yours!

we need a reality tv show about dog show people

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

air riders incredible. i enter city trial, have a five minute fever dream, and at the end i have a beast of a machine. no notes

i am very happy for new york!! i am crossing my fingers for seattle as we wait to find out if we get an actually good mayor (also good riddance former city council president sara nelson!!)

This reminds me: While not as nationally reported on, there are two other progressives running for mayor in major US cities. I have seen them compared as the Zohran of their races. We have Omar Fateh for Minneapolis & Katie Wilson for Seattle. If you can vote in those cities, I’d recommend them!

Me When I Am Coming To Fucking Get You

if you ask games industry people what games they’re playing they’ll be like “oh Hades 2 and this match-3 mobile game with a million ads and microtransactions. yeah i have about 60 hours in each”

k-karkat??

I’m quoted in this as are some of my favorite people in the industry. the games industry is just so demoralizing right now

someone hacked my @alaskaairlines.bsky.social account, cancelled the flight I’m supposed to take tomorrow, stole my points, and then contacted me via WhatsApp to give my account back

what are the English voices like in Clair Obscur? I’m playing it in French as it should be but I’m very curious to know if they have accents / are doing justice to the Frenchness of it all

anyway if you want to read a book series about kid wizards set in the real world, I highly recommend the Young Wizards series by Diane Duane. SO good SO kind, positive representation of marginalized identities and it holds up even tho it was written in the 80s

with the bioware layoffs that’s more narrative people looking for work. there are currently like three jobs in narrative design. if you’re just starting out you should definitely learn literally anything else

this has always been so ridiculous to me, the pass is the least important thing about GDC and an -expo- pass at that grants you basically nothing. lodging + travel is the majority of cost of attending and is the biggest barrier for people who cannot afford to go!

they should release the kirby air ride city trial mode as a free online multiplayer game

at the end of 2022 I applied to 2 jobs and received job offers for both. since I was laid off in July I’ve applied to 50 jobs and received job offers for none. I’ve only been interviewed for one job. real stark difference 2 years has made in this industry

community has infinitely more to do with helping a person who is kind of annoying than it will ever have to do with ring doorbell videos of strangers in your neighborhood. but you can't turn that into a $500 internet class unfortunately
