Just gonna say this again for games sphere cus we get the same question: Networking doesn't mean schmoozing up to famous people, it means making friends with your peers. Then in 10 years, 20, one of you might be famous? And sure you're still helping each other cus well yeah friends. Make. Friends.

I have slept more than I've been awake over Christmas, the chronic fatigue recovery is always like this. Lucky to have understanding in-laws and a place to nap whenever I want!

Thus begins my favourite time of year, the time that doesn't exist between Christmas and New Years!

I had a lot of issues watching The Game Awards this year as there were no individual warnings for the trailers to give me a heads-up whether they were safe or not. Seizures can kill, please put warnings on. I don't want to die just cause you didn't put a warning that it might kill me, pls.

Happy Christmas Eve to all who celebrate the season 🎄 I will be gallivanting outside getting pictures of mushrooms (already did but what's another day of aesthetic shots of flammulina velutipes?)

please imagine its christmas so this meme pops off PLEASE

Only one more train and I'm up north for Christmas. I appreciate the pure mad lad sized trains there have been even if all 8 carriages of both my previous trains have been busy af. I am never going to be good at the feeling of travel as transition, but I can cope so much better now than before.

If you haven't read it, I wrote a thorough essay on how to eliminate crunch in the games industry. It's really easy for the folks in power, you just... do it. www.austinkelmore.com/blog/how-to-...

More infomation and how to donate will be revealed in the new year so other than the post promoting the latest pod, this is the last you'll hear off us in 2025 ! Thanks to all our guests, all the support and looking forward to raising money for a good cause.

We will be streaming for the @thewobblygamer.bsky.social selected charity Look which helps to mentor children and young adults with visual impairments. We want guests to join us for games, chat and reaching certain goals which have forfeits that get more and more spectacular the more we raise.

We are still recruiting game makers who had games posted to Steam or itch.io in July 2025 for a survey on the impacts of NSFW policy changes. More info on the project website. You can also always email me (via the website or through the email on the USask website) for info or with questions.

Working in the games industry directly FTE and not as a consultant has been illuminating in the same way as turning on the light in the pantry of an old house and it reveals there's a bunch of suspicious skeletons and a family tree that looks more like a family ouroborous.

A week off! We're having a mini Christmas tomorrow sharing gifts and having a roast ham before we head up north to visit family for the season 🎄

at a certain level of any creative or intellectual collaborative job the main task is sin-eater: to fix what you can and get blamed for what you can’t, secretly knowing how much worse it would have been if you hadn’t done what you did.
