New MUNA (Dancing On The Wall) has really grown on me. The back half of the album especially. Girl's Girl, Buzzkiller, So What, Big Stick. All the singles are good, even the little interludes. A throughline of upbeat poppy breakup yearning. Album goo

Been drawing for the first time in years, some characters I'm playing in TTRPG type games. I do some 'graphics design' (read: photoshop pixel-pushing) but zero illustration so it's been fun to practice

Life is Strange: Reunion is deeply unrealistic. Not a single college student is wearing wide fit baggy jeans.

New Mitski album is good but I kinda wish all the songs were like That White Cat, If I Leave and Where's My Phone? It's cool she still wants to write songs like that all, she'd be well within her rights to have moved on completely. Album feels like its pulling from more 'eras' than TLIIASAW

hi folks! i'm looking for full-time remote work in game design! my specialty is tabletop games (i've both self-published and contributed to award-winning & bestselling TTRPGs) but i've also written for jam-winning video games! is your company hiring? get in touch & i can send my portfolio!

TR-49 was really enjoyable, another good Inkle game. I managed to get all the entries in one (long) session with no out-of-game hints. If you like detective, investigation, database-search type games this is a must play: store.steampowered.com/app/3838370/...

Top Ten games I played (for the first time) in 2025 Editor's Note: I played Blue Prince last year (was #2 on my 2024 list)

These are the best new albums (and EPs) I listened to in 2025, in no particular order. Playlists in replies "album of the year" is probably Trains Running Backwards by Hana Eid, which is wild because it only just came out. Swallow the Knife (Sir Chloe) + Precipice (Indigo De Souza) also great

are you jewish and do you think you can gather 2-5 players for TTRPG playtest that must take place in the next 48 hours? if so, send me a DM!

On launch of #Vanitera450 we ended the day with twice as many Cataphract orders as we processed. So we paused the game for a week and I built a bot that fully automates letter sending + delivery with correct node-based pathfinding for messenger NPCs. We've reopened for a few days, so far so good!

I'm co-running a modified Cataphract game which starts in one week. It's a 'play-on-Discord' wargame set across two fantasy medieval continents and will run for 1 year realtime. We have 55 players(!!!) signed up but will need more, if you're interested let me know samsorensen.blot.im/cataphracts-...

For @samsorensen.bsky.social's #OVER/UNDER I created WEATHERVANE, an in-universe themed combat simulator. Using it, our faction was able to predict the outcome of any battle with a high degree of confidence. It helped us price mercenary contracts and go into any combat knowing the expected outcomes.

Kinophobia is a good, free Search and Detect game. It's a touch rougher than the commercial ones but it also has the best hint system of any of them, no guides or joining discords required. If you enjoyed Roottrees or Type Help, play this! brunodias.itch.io/kinophobia

The Seance of Blake Manor is a good new detective game. I'm already seeing people hit it with the hyperbole laser + throw around words like Obra and Dinn... just ignore, calibrate your expectations and enjoy store.steampowered.com/app/1395520/...

watching over/under players learn the same lessons the blaseball community learned the hard way is deeply nostalgic.... we cross and re-cross our old tracks like figure skaters

‪I'm the Head of UX at YouTube and it's my job to ensure the UI is as big and slow as possible. Our latest revision (internally titled Colossal Sloth) is our biggest + slowest yet! Every time one of my reports pitches an improvement i make them write it on a post-it note then eat it during standup

My doctor listens to the same film podcast as me and every time they read out one of her emails I forget and am shocked like "why does my doctor have such strong opinions about Tron Ares???"

Strategically coming out over a year before the release of Supergirl (2026) so that nobody thinks I named myself after a DCU character. Now I only have to explain I've never seen Battlestar Galactica to people 🙏

The game in which the premise is "the odds are real but gamers struggle to conceptualize or even believe them" has negative reviews from gamers who don't believe the odds are real (game: Unfair Flips)

HIII! I made the OST from "Become the Moon" a new Deck Builder game by Feldspar Games! It came out so nicely and you can now listen to the OST on Bandcamp and all streaming platforms! :3 Bandcamp/Streaming Links: becomethemoonost.carrd.co #gameaudio #gamemusic #composer #indiegames #guitar

Hey friends, I'm trans. My name is Kara and my pronouns are she/her. I've written a little more on the image (see alt text if needed). Otherwise, it's nice to meet you!

Gamers discovering how statistics work is one of my favorite genres of post

Consume Me is really, really good. Nobody told me it was a life management sim, and a great one at that! When you solve the systems + hit your goals you're like YES then you remember you've helped a teenager effectively weaponize her ED and you're like oops store.steampowered.com/app/2359120/...

its a balatrolike metroidbrainia boomer extraction shlooter with always-online live ops social UGC and a pixelpunk PSX aesthetic, the demo is in early access now on Poob Games

hyperbole is a disease

If Life on Mars was set today, DCI Sam Tyler would walk out of his office in 2025, get hit by a car and wake up in 1992

HIII TODAY IS #BandcampFriday !! I released the OST from Become The Moon recently on my Bandcamp!! So today is the perfect day if you want to buy there :33🩵 All RT's appreciated! ponpoko.bandcamp.com/album/become...

Just realised I can't view any 18+ pages on Steam because my account doesn't have a credit card + none of the credit cards I own are supported. @valvesoftware.com this is so busted lol, my account is literally 18+ years old on its own

When I worked for a games events company our marketing manager used to count everyone who had a weekend ticket twice for the reports, 4-day ticker holders counted 4 times. We used to joke if someone left the venue + returned that's +1 footfall. An attendee is pregnant? that's technically +2 footfall

tech in 2000: we're gonna solve every problem and make the world a better place! tech in 2025: you can now Deliveroo cock rings to your home at 11pm on a Sunday

Is anyone I know on letterboxd? I wanna read your reviews letterboxd.com/metacrab/

The Hytale community made a massive "Save Hytale" logo in wplace right on top of Riot Games HQ

God, Blue Prince was good. Tonda Ros should get working on Bluer Prince

You are a clone named Watcher, and you’ve made a grave mistake. 💠 Surface a 1,000-year-old lie from the cosmic shadows 💠 Commune with sisters to discover the forbidden truths of your god 💠 Unravel a tapestry of familial pain, love and revolution 1000xRESIST is 30% off on Steam for the first time.

Disco Elysium, Outer Wilds and 1000XRESIST were debut games from teams who had basically no idea what they were doing, made early 'naive' decisions they were forced to commit to for the entire development + they ended up being 3 of the most interesting/important games ever made

ye olde 3AM boost - still looking for short & long term gigs.

soooo tired of video game slop. skyrim is just fantasyslop. minecraft is just blockslop. slay the spire is a sloplike deckslopper

The offer symbol blocks out whatever the first word is so this thumbnail just says "Average street food - 3.5 stars"

How did The Bear go from 2X lightning-in-a-bottle seasons to a carousel of celebrity cameos, up-its-own-ass chef glorification, extreme closeups of faces as they stammer thru expository monologues + recycling "remember that?" side characters and catchphrases as if it any of it matters... heard chefs

Become the Moon is live! If you enjoy roguelikes, auto battlers, deckbuilders, cute/scary art, soundtracks that are too good to be on this game, check it out!!! store.steampowered.com/app/2862890/...

I've shipped game updates to literally 100s of millions of players but I never actually shipped a "game" until today, at least not one that counts for mobygames credit. Funny to think about... Become the Moon launches at 5pm UK time (in ~7 hours) store.steampowered.com/app/2862890/...

Become the Moon is releasing next week! I'm so proud of what we've made. Demo in Steam NextFest now! It's like Slay the Spire + Hearthstone Battlegrounds + Super Auto Pets with a twisted Adventure Time artstyle and a banger math rock breakcore soundtrack store.steampowered.com/app/2862890/...

Based on current predicted trends, the average streaming show in 2027 will have 1-episode seasons premiering every 5 years.

Where are the ugly citizens of Lumière? Did all the busted people volunteer for Expedition 34 or smth?

⋆｡°✩HIII⋆｡°✩ I present to you my new release! AMORE-De-Lic is an album about obscure Japanese video games that deserve some love. It is a Punk album, because the most punk thing I could ever do is sing about the stuff I love! ponpokoamoredelic.carrd.co #guitar #shoegaze #postpunk #visualkei

Andor S2 Arc 3 is an astonishing piece of television that has more payoff than any show I can think of in recent memory. I was speechless. Andor is good!
