This cruel, authoritarian and unworkable guidance will hurt us all. It legitimises intrusive questioning, encourages suspicion, and makes everyday life less safe. The UK government must scrap it before any more damage is done.

You mean after the eco promises of the developers was found to be an obvious lie? Needs an investigation into why these were ever approved

Nighthawks, our vampire RPG, is coming in FALL OF 2026!! Seize the night as a modern monster, stepping out of the shadows to build a thriving nightclub empire through fear, seduction, and forbidden supernatural gifts. See our new trailer below, and wishlist here: bit.ly/4o36HRx

"will receive runway funding and full ownership of the intellectual property they have developed, including their catalogs of previous games" Sounds like a great outcome! Phew!

College Fun Games is one of my personal favorite up and coming adventure game devs. I’m excited to watch the interview. #adventuregame #indiegame @collegefungames.mastodon.gamedev.place.ap.brid.gy

Why is *anyone* allowed to donate more than an MP's annual salary at all? This is exactly what it looks like: lobbyists outbidding taxpayers and voters for MPs. Successfully, as far as anyone can see.

This is an amazing read

If you read this and thought "they died for some other reason" I'm happy to report that one of the best adventures of all time came out this year and is on sale, and that the last 10-15 years have been incredible for the genre. store.steampowered.com/app/2088810/...

So we have the Home Secretary's statement on changes to immigration and asylum, and, despite the attempt to spin it otherwise, they are some of the most regressive measures we have seen. 1/ www.gov.uk/government/n...

NEW: Grand Theft Auto VI developer Rockstar has been accused of ignoring pay inequity, mandating crunch, and weaponizing bonuses by multiple unionized employees in the United Kingdom.

There is nothing "fair" about Labour's plans. These are the most regressive and hostile changes to the asylum rules we have seen in decades, which is saying something considering those passed by Labour. They undermine human rights, and put trafficking victims at risk. They are abhorrent. 15/

Sunshine on #Leith for all at home here. There is no place for racists in #Edinburgh and there never will be. A humbling moment: the silence at the spot of the attack. Everyone united in it for our communities, a little boy waving from a window above. We can make a difference. We have a duty to.

These are not "new routes". Community sponsorship existed for a decade. This is an attempt to deflect from how this government has closed genuine "safe routes" and is now replacing them with restricted, inaccessible, schemes which will exclude many needing asylum. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Itch.io Summer Sale recommendation thread because I think it's a neat site and I like that it takes a smaller cut than Steam and you get the games DRM-free. Most of these will probably be adventure games since that's what I play the most! 🧵

The Beekeeper's Picnic is so, so close to getting 500 reviews, which will put it into the coveted 'Overwhelming Positive' bracket! If you played and haven't left a review yet, it would be super duper appreciated! store.steampowered.com/app/2248890/...

Sometimes I think music isn't composition, it's discovery of a pattern that hasn't been unearthed yet. Howells wrote this one down in 1927, but it feels like an artifact from 1627 www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzcF...

Nice weather for ikkle grapes!

On #WorldRefugeeDay, we remember why people are forced to flee. The right to seek asylum is under threat globally. States have a responsibility to uphold it under international law.
