Regular gaming is on pause for a little bit while I nurse a tendon injury! So let's chat and see where things go: twitch.tv/intelligame

Surprise, we're getting pretty close to the final version of REALIS! ICYMI: I've been making a TTRPG about mystical moons and living spaceships and sentences that can kill you. A preview is available now (see my pinned post), but the full version draws near! www.kickstarter.com/projects/cru...

I played a bit of this today, and though I haven't completed it yet I have such an appreciation for the nuanced ways this game tackles these delicate subjects. If this is a topic you can engage with, very much recommend. Really glad this game exists. @wednesdays-game.bsky.social

We're live! :)

Starting today checking out the brand new game Winter Burrow! This game looks so cute but I'm a little nervous it's going to make me cry! 😅 Thank you @futurefriendsgames.com and @pinecreekgames.com for the key! Afterwards, playing games chosen by the community! Twitch.tv/FaunAndGames

We're back for the first time in a long time, but a good time! Come by the Intelligame stream as we talk the current moment, card games, and open a package from @riotgames.com as they launch #Riftbound: (I have so many feelings about everything and they're all complicated) twitch.tv/intelligame

I checked out a game in my backlog yesterday: Quartet. It's a turn-based RPG that feels straight out of a SNES Final Fantasy, with a killer soundtrack and SUCH good writing. I'm just getting started, but I'm struck by the storytelling in Wallside. 🧵 youtu.be/L7Ssh_a5mGc

The Indie Council has long wanted to cover this topic. This week we unleash our thoughts on generative AI in gaming.

At 4pm EDT we return to @sunsetvisitor.studio's 1000xRESIST! In today's stream: we continue to make Healer's already bad day worse, learn more about the origins of the sisters, and see the result of [REDACTED, SHE DID *WHAT* WITH THE HAIR???] Should be a fun one! www.twitch.tv/silverstring...

We are looking for three peer reviewers for a manuscript titled "Third places and community environments in gaming"😊 Please check the attached image for the abstract! (1/2)

Imagine kidnapping people off the street in broad daylight and thinking you're the "good guys". People who are at work, at their kids' school or otherwise minding their business. Imagine shooting people with rubber bullets because they want it to stop and thinking you're the "good guys". 🤔😑

NEW PODCAST It's time for you to interrogate your thirst with us and a special guest @awildjessichu.bsky.social! This week, we discuss archetypes, stereotypes, our first crushes, and the people we married and somehow venture into discussing male loneliness in 2025. LISTEN HERE 👇🏽 pod.fo/e/2e3a36

Thankful to @gameonysus.bsky.social for this, a salient reminder of the importance of speaking our truth in every context we can.

I was writing something up but I don't think I will anymore. Janet puts a lot of it into words and how she feels about LA is how I feel about TX, and regardless if you're in a blue or red state no document will make us white. Stop feeling guilty and do something about it. A must read 👇🏾👇🏾

I'm doing the creator outreach for Is This Seat Taken? and wanna make sure I can get in touch with all the folks who want to cover it! 👀💗 If you're a content creator who wants to stay in the loop, be sure to sign up via our key interest form: 🔑https://k1zwm815u8b.typeform.com/IsThisSeatTaken

In March, Hamdan Ballal, one of the Palestinian co-directors of the film was brutally attacked by Israeli settlers. Documentaries are important to preserve history and tell stories. But they're also important because they can move us to action. Watch it today. nootherland.com

Trying an experiment today: hanging out and chatting with Will Evans from @blacknerdproblems.bsky.social ! We're thinking about doing a sorta podcast thing? Come on by, stream's live: twitch.tv/intelligame

Folks, @miladyconfetti.bsky.social is streaming South of Midnight, and her videos were some of the first I saw that convinced me to play the game. Please, GO SUPPORT BLACK WOMEN playing this game! twitch.tv/miladyconfetti

Let's hop back to it! A lil' more South of Midnight by @compulsiongames.bsky.social : twitch.tv/intelligame

What's a recent game that's impacted you personally? For me, easy choice is South of Midnight by @compulsiongames.bsky.social . Just the first cutscene alone put me through a HOST of emotions. (Note: Microsoft is a primary boycott target right now and owns Compulsion. Support SoM thoughtfully)

YOU SHOULD PLAY #SouthOfMidnight ESPECIALLY #BlackSky (biggest shoutout to @intelligame.us playing yesterday, this game is gonna be played in every free moment for the next ten years probably)

Looking forward to exploring a lil' bit from the backlog today :)

Stream's LIVE! Today, I'm streaming South of Midnight, the Southern Gothic action game released by @compulsiongames.bsky.social ! (thanks for the review key) First though, we're starting with a discussion about cross-movement solidarity. Swing on in: twitch.tv/intelligame

Applications for the @lagshowcase.bsky.social are open! The Latin America Games Showcase's been a fantastic show time and again, so if you wanna be a part of it (sorry for the linkmess 😅) docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Help me help some good kids! Looking for recommendations for social justice/mental health-oriented games that are free and easily accessible from a computer (browser-based would be FANTASTIC) Got some good picks for me?

cwa, which represents over 2,000 workers across companies like microsoft, is launching a new games industry-wide union that anyone can join, even laid-off workers. with legal frameworks for organizing under attack, it's a return to tactics that predate those systems aftermath.site/uvw-cwa-vide...

It's Wanderstop launch day! Come on by as we do a #ThoughtfulPlay and celebrate the release of @ivyroadgames.bsky.social 's game about burnout, rest, and tea :) twitch.tv/intelligame

Wanderstop is out now on Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox! 🍵✨ When I joined @ivyroadgames.bsky.social, I knew immediately they were making something truly special! I'm so proud of everyone on the team, count myself lucky to be working with them, and can't believe the day is finally here!

I know it's a privileged discussion to have about kits, particularly when so much around money and games is tough right now. But my big takeaway is: if you're doing outreach at ALL, think of the ways you can connect to folks as PEOPLE. Experience, feeling... far better than just "merch."

Aside from hyping the game, the gift created a genuinely meaningful moment for me, one I get to think about when I wear the shirt around. I imagine I'll be creating similar good memories while sipping the tea that Wanderstop inspired, far better than "t-shirt with game logo and lanyard"
