Recently Kosh asked what the drawing of “Space Heater” on our refrigerator was all about, and I just came across the comic which explains how that all came about.

Often the excuse is "well it's meant for the community to solve", but I just don't understand that. Okay, so your community figured out your deep secrets within 2 weeks of release and now they're on a wiki page. Great. So you value that over the experience of many individual players?

Rant time... I can't stand games that hide their deepest secrets just by making them more obscure. It is *not* the only way to add secret layers to your game. Secrets are not an excuse to throw good game design out the window. They can still be clear and follow an interesting deductive process.

Here's some TGA counter-progamming if you'd like, a sick thread about cool indie games. I vow in 2026 to force myself to catch up on a bunch of these.

OMG DOGPILE IS OUT LETS GOO

so insanely fucking real for this

I apologize but (1/3) Signs of the Sojourner, Critters for Sale, Hypnospace Outlaw, Silicon Zeroes, Gunpoint, Ape Out, The Roottrees are Dead, The Eternal Castle Remastered, Pizza Tower, PRODUCER (2021), Old Skies, Noita, Kentucky Route Zero, Machinarium, Rhythm Doctor, Caves of Qud, Frozen Synapse

Flashing christmas lights make it dangerous to go out leaving me essentially locked at home until at least January every year. Imagine how it feels being locked in your home just because people want to make everywhere dangerous for you for a month or two.

Yup. Phone and software devs worked in collaboration with social scientists to figure out how they could design their products to prey on the most VULNERABLE and ADDICTION-PRONE parts of the brain. They've been training us like DOGS in order to keep us endlessly engaged with their products.

GOD: I have invented the sinus ME: haha… wait, what the fuck? GOD: it’s a little space inside your head. Anything could get up there ME: no… GOD: a spider could weave its web. An evil little man could build his house

This really is a must read for anyone in academia.

this has become a very important video to me

You are ABSOLUTELY NOT going to regret listening to this bird:

i love having 3 kernal crashes in a row when starting a stream when ive been feeling shitty already that's my favorite thing

Let's keep that hate train rolling

THE PURPOSE OF GAMEPLAY IS TO HIDE SECRETS

new emotes have hit the stream, poggers

Good music alert!

that goddamn goose @geesebreath.games

lol sure bud

my spotify wrapped said i had an increase of 350% in number of listeners this year, which is a cool number! but it barely affected me. i don't see any of that. the very few people who actually posted about it, reviewed it, etc, each made more of an impact than the entire spotify ecosystem did

I’m so sick of falling apart. Just once I’d like to fall together.

they went and made smartpipe www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJkl...

fuck

There's several services to transfer your entire library and I've heard it is easier than expected. Just a few: freeyourmusic.com www.tunemymusic.com Spotify will keep raising prices and is not going to last forever with how they're running their business, so I think this is actually proactive.

a load-bearing component of “the magic of Christmas” is the invisible domestic labor of moms you are now realizing how much she was doing for you and instead of just thanking her you’ve decided it’s about the decline of civilization

A book from the 19th century that depicts the Rhine Valley by creating an impression of three-dimensionality and spatial distance. @MasayukiTsuda2 #globalmuseum #books #travel #19thcentury

need a new web series to dive in that is catered for the goldfish brain but also has a decent amount of puzzles check out my latest project called THEE HYMNALS we got over ten episodes available for you #args #unfiction #analoghorror #marketingarg #music youtube.com/@theehymnals

my advice is when someone says they're a "former evangelical," ask follow-up questions

"Aha, but what if Brass had been designed by a computer? Would you still say it has no artistic merit?" But it wasn't designed by a computer. What if your mother were a horse. See, we can all play the stupid person game.

I was unemployed for 7 months, every week I would see another project cancelled or studio shut down and think “well, fuck, that’s another 6-12 producers added to the group of us looking, applying to maybe 1-3 quality jobs available” and it sucked. It doesn’t reflect any of our skills or drive.

The combination of fascism covid more fascism genocide capitulation to fascism and the clear goal of AI tech bros to eradicate the workforce and make all jobs and future goals irrelevant as we all slide into poverty while eleven rich people become gods is really doing a number on us.

ive seen that fontworks license text in almost every major japanese release i've played this year and in every rhythm game i play in the arcade. this is a *big* deal

Need this done to me

Well, it’s been virtually the only game I played for the last 5 years, but this means fuck you and bye, Fortnite.
