Tapping Star Fox Zero out of the double pack like one cig out of the box of Marlboros

PAX East 2026 recap kicks off so many PAX videos. @mrlite-dan.bsky.social said the words “Jacob as Astro Boy” and I think I have to commission a sticker now. I mean I do have the same hair…

The United States Patent and Trade Office has revoked a patent it granted Nintendo last year, which covered summoning characters to make them battle on the player's behalf. Nintendo can now appeal the decision if it chooses. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/us-pate...

Since a couple of people have asked - working to get the Video Game Trivia panel up by April 15th! I shared this in the room, but you might not have heard it 🥲 ... I had no voice 3 hours before the panel. Beyond shouting out the panellists who crushed it, I have some folks that I need to thank!

but what if I played Persona 5 royale right now

clair obscur is a hard game to talk about. on one hand a gorgeous love letter to the very best of the rpg genre, on the other hand a bloated and confused narrative that doesn't quite stick its landing. my review: youtu.be/9livFsAihfM

I'm so grateful that I got the chance to talk about such a cool and fascinating game with @tftblpod.bsky.social It was a really great discussion on language and culture in general and how this game does such a great job to show just how intertwined those two things are. Please go listen!

UNFAIR FLIPS UPDATE: THE FLIPS ARE FAIR NOW. For the next 24 hours, YOU can test your TRUE mettle in coin flipping. No more probability, just pure skill. store.steampowered.com/news/app/392...

PAX East was filled with some really great indies and @mrkstep.bsky.social wrote about the 10 games that he got to check out on the show floor. Plus a list of fellow media and content creators who have even more coverage from the show floor for you!

I did much commerce at PAX East!

Verminsteel isn't in the Summer Sale, because I'm developing it right now, but it's a game where you're a bird with a broadsword who kicks thousands of fascists so hard they fly into the sun, so if you think that's cool maybe wishlist, RT and tell your friends? store.steampowered.com/app/4352280/...

To those who have made PAX East content already… send me your energy. I’m currently a lump on the couch staring into the void.

Crystalmancer was WILDLY my shit. It’s “a roguelike, block-smashing puzzle game inspired by the JRPG's of the 90's”. It pulls the shapes from a popular puzzle game but adds its own twist by letting you modify the blocks and place them on the grid instead of controlling their descent.

The team gave out four Game of the Show awards at PAX East 2026! Here are everyone's favourites! 🧵

RACCOIN is OUT NOW on Steam. 🦝 Developed by Doraccoon, @raccoingame.bsky.social is a roguelike deckbuilder full of shiny coins, lucky spins, and satisfying combos. Huge congratulations to Doraccoon and well done to our Playstack team! Play now on Steam: tinyurl.com/mpb9kbwu #raccoin #playstack

Another PAX East in the books. So thankful for friends, food and video games. Always grateful for the silly lil’ things I get to do around very talented people. Now back to the basement content mines.

Opposite of PAX?

Another year, another PAX, another reminder that wishlisting video games actually makes a tangible difference to developers, particularly smaller independent teams. It helps them get the exposure and funding to make their aspirations a reality. So Wishlist cool games!!!

#PAXEast 2026 is now complete. We look forward to welcoming you back through our gates next year, April 22-25, 2027!

If you're not sick of me talking about Chants Of Sennaar, I got to do it some more with Dave on Tales from the Backlog! Check it out later this week!

I’m telling you that this game is going to be a problem for me. Played this on the show floor. Daily Golf game for free on the App Store. Play Goffle right now.

“Hi I’m @jacob.bsky.social from VGT. Welcome to my crib.”

Time for a rebrand @nosmallgames.bsky.social

That’s a wrap on PAX East for me! Heading home early but this was truly one of the best ones. Spent time with so many wonderful friends. Also played games. But it was mostly about the friends!

Another great trivia in the books @jacob.bsky.social

Jill took a photo of me that will never be topped. 📸: @finruin.bsky.social

I’m going to fight this guy #paxeast

I’d like to contact you about your car’s extended warranty. @jacob.bsky.social

He got 5 enormous points.

TONIGHT. VIDEO GAME TRIVIA. BOBCAT THEATRE. SEVEN THIRTY. The night that @katerblossom.bsky.social puts @nolanerdcast.bsky.social through a table (metaphorically, with trivia).

What? @th3hoopman.bsky.social 🍰

Short that baby? @writnelson.bsky.social

Had to do it again. @katerblossom.bsky.social @aspecificegg.bsky.social

Brute Force

He purchased many items from the Double Fine booth immediately after this. 🔒 📸: @tftblpod.bsky.social

We met the biggest internet celebrity of all time. Huge honor

*breaks glass*

I have two copies of Forspoken right now. Just thought you should know.

Hey @jacob.bsky.social you better not give someone at trivia a physical copy of a good game this week

Feelin’ pretty anxious about air travel tomorrow. But for now - here’s Dan with a blep. 😛

There's a new "Bonnie and Pig" bundle with Bonnie Bear Saves Frogtime + Hermit and Pig!🐻🐸🐷 If you already own one, the other is discounted. And the Steam Spring Sale is happening. So the timing is suspiciously good. store.steampowered.com/bundle/70427... #indiegame #steamspringsale
