Thanks for the vaguely ominous message, arcade horse racing game.

So I started developing a play by post wargame based off Guilty Gear 2 Overture and GGXAC+R. I want it to be very specific to the feel of those games. This game will not be Strive or Xrd *at all*.

Combo Breaker is Going To be so Good This year! I can’t wait! Everyone be safe and play more side games!

A friend saw a new animated show and the first piece or praise they had was “wow the merch is so good, I’m so glad this show has good merch” which rubbed me weird.

Abstract Games are insanely valuable. I’ve found a lot of people when making a Theme default to systems they know that more or less suit the Theme but foundationally you’re just adding “Uncertainty Engine That Fits The Theme”. Abstraction challenges to Make A New Uncertainty Engine and that’s cool.

Not to be mean but there is a post talking about how to make FGC content and it is giving terrible advice but it has a lot of likes. If you want to make videos that gain traction the last thing i'd ever reccomend someone do in the year 2026 is reaction videos & grinding ranked. lol

Becoming guy who tells designers to learn a new language as being directly exposed to the complaints, scenes of different geographic audiences and being able to engage in their native languages will fundamentally enrich and enhance everything that you do

I’m just Not interested in a “curated” existence at all honestly. It seems to me we have come to evaluate “Good taste” and choice in design far too highly in how we perceive who we want to befriend. I want to be served raw interests not something catered to me

Bluesky assuming I’m Going To post in Spanish everytime makes me happy

Manchester Games Network launches to put UK region 'back on the games map'

lifes so hard

At work all the alarms are labeled “IGNORE UNLESS CURIOUS” and nobody has ever been able to determine who added that label or why there’s a monkey that keeps flipping them.

A lot of effort in multiplayer board game design goes into making sure everyone feels they have a chance to win for as long as possible. But this isn't necessary if we persuade players to care about their ranking. So many players have internalized "1st place or nothing" but it need not be that way.

Agree with this, and there are some interesting choices to be made about what to purposefully leave out of your balance formulas, so that players still have room to get an edge. I often evaluate cards in a vacuum & do not model synergies for exactly this reason.

Resources to learn Albanian history and language? What’s the best deep dive? Specially late tribal era Albania

I always seem to make the same darn mistake every year for this Star Wars day thing and I’m just too far gone to correct it now. 😝💕 (from my Sakura sticker set)

I’ve been tuning competitive games for 15 years, and I’ve come to one inevitable conclusion. Want to know why people loved our patches on Killer Instinct and Rumbleverse so much? My hour long deep dive premieres tonight at 10pm EST on Game Design Direct! www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCPQ...

Truth is, there just isn't enough ASMR material out where the listener is getting the shit beat out of them. Until I hear more of that, the sadistic werewolf girl from DangerousASMR will remain the GOAT. This is the closest I've ever drawn to a furry. Hope I didn't fuck it up

Hasta mañana...💜🙋‍♀️✌

Harada going to SNK and forming a new studio under them would be interesting if it weren't for the Problems. Unfortunately, the Problems,

The real message of Frogger is the dangers of commuting in a city that doesn't have reliable public transit.

Rage baiting

10 YEARS OF SCHWARZERBLITZ, bloody moonfish! 10 YEARS! To celebrate this incredible achievement, I opened one last call for fan art for the in-game gallery! Link in the first reply! Thank you for having supported me for so long. Without this game and you all, I would not be where I am today🥹

After all this time Harada finally found a way to ensure we won't ask him for shit.

It's stunning how desperate mbs is to control fighting games. I mean he wants to control everything, but he's laser focused on this one niche genre "Buy SNK! We'll sell millions! Oh the game didn't sell? Well screw it, just buy EVO and Tekken. We can't buy Tekken? Then buy the guy who made Tekken"

Everyone I know who uses "RetroAchievements" never sounds like they're actually having fun

This time we have a moving collage. Here are over 100 "insert coin" logos flipping like a coin.

This summer I will try to dedicate to blender and CAD. I have a top of the line 3D printer and printing out puppets seems huge

sisyphus really knows how to get the ball rolling

This line is how I feel about so many topics lol

Fighting games are beautiful, I wish I could read more people talking about specific game design decisions and what it does to the game feel. I need to spread more of those conversations

I may be a PSP guy at heart, but you can't deny that the DS is truly the most "take it to the lake with a smoke and a fishing rod" device ever created.

white nostalgia feels so claustrophobic to me these days

I'll say this: @jestervalentine.bsky.social is a renaissance artist. Each and every one of their games is something no other mind could have ever conceived - in every possible meaning of the term. They are all absolute feverdreams.

I wish you well in your adult literacy journey

Thinking about getting into puppetry

What it’s like to start 3D printing hyper specific modular inserts for everything in your cabinet:

you know, there's nothing quite like baseball. actually, hold on. now that i think about it, softball is a lot like baseball. you know what, nevermind. man. what a turd this post turned out to be, huh

i believe that harnessing solar energy is immoral. that energy does not belong to us, it belongs to the sun, and it's going to come back to get it when it consumes the earth in several billion years. don't take what isn't yours. you don't need lights at night if you just remember where everything is

It is far too easy to submit to anger and not share joy with your friends. Be angry but also share in games/movies/books with the people you love.

Folks invested so hard on “Falco is cool” stocks for the last 30 years and now his ass ain’t got aura. Genuinely Generational Aura Loss

Made a game on google forms as a proof of concept. Kept it as minimal as possible. Maybe a little too minimal? But I let’s test it out. I’m calling it a Doctrine Game. Because all you do is advise on doctrine and wait to see what happens. Deckard style Form Game meets worldbuilding and lore。

Experiment: Made a Form Game where you choose a faction and the most voted and least voted options become what they adopt as doctrine in the war. Every option affects one of 3 attributes and all the endings are already written. Please share around and discuss! forms.gle/98HbLgMTj8QR...

I forgot this site existed where are my oomfs at

EVO day 2! #EVO #EVO2025

Breaking: Puerto Rico appears to be about to pass into law a bill that would ban transgender care up to the age of 21, which would be devastating for trans people on the island, given they cannot as easily travel to get care elsewhere.
