We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA. Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.

I was interviewed a few months ago for the first issue of HAM (Hobart Arts Magazine). Recently got my hands on a copy, and didn’t realize my article would be a 5 page spread! Very well made magazine. You can find them at www.instagram.com/ham_magazine Thanks to Peter Burt for reaching out!

with games as big as GTA many players (and even some devs tbh) forget that these games are made by humans and not just faceless corporations I'm glad this channel exists, people need to see how fucked up the union busting from Rockstar really is www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9nO...

We're excited to announce that the Frosty Mini showcase will premiere on December 10 starting at 8am AEDT / 10am NZDT (that's December 9, 1pm PT for our USA friends)! Tune in for exciting news and surprise announcements from 20+ of the coolest games made in Australia and Aotearoa NZ.

Parallels 2025 talks are up y'all Sash and I talk Wyrmspace and Spreadsheets, but honestly every single game and speaker this year was a banger and I'm so proud to have shared the evening with them 🥺

we're returning Renfield to his natural habitat... England (a barn owl swoops down and carries him off in its talons)
