breaks my heart to know there are people out there who actually buy dude wipes. I wonder if he doesn't drink bottled water because he only drinks liquid death.

she made a pokemon fan game

Incredible.

damnit

Me seeing this at 31

I kinda feel crazy thinking "what if they started a war just to justify extreme military funding when court orders tell them to repay tariff costs" but who cares if I sound conspiratorial, the billionaire pedophile ring turned out to be true.

Genuinely how does one accidentally upload a work on progress build as a patch to a completely different already published game? Gosh I hope this story is fully told one day.

Welp. Someone is having the absolute worst day of their career right now. Good team to do a Hunter game, though!

WOW

How I feel about my first session with Slay the Spire 2.

Wow interesting! you can find out more here nogamesforgenocide.com

I wanna join in too! https://my9games.com/s/7760b4ba2408458f

I got in. It's very good!

I was slimed in front of a live studio audience at Nickelodeon Studios in Orlando Florida.

"why did you become a writer" because no one gave a shit about my special interests growing up. now i make them everyone else's problem. next question

Glad to see this Dev isn't slowing down after it seems Metal Eden came and went. Just picked it up myself, looking forward to playing more of it since I dug the demo.

I think of this often

They’re calling him “the least Googleable man of all time”

Everyone please stop buying Slay the Spire II so I can buy it instead

Nothing better than getting randomly followed by an account and then I check em out and they're making something really cool. It's like Rollerdrome and SSX had a baby

THAT'S MY GOAT

The worst part about that White House video of satellite footage of the US bombing Iran is knowing someone who has low enough humanity to edit CoD UI over clips of people dying is employed by the US government. The second worst part is they're a Childish Gambino fan.

the silicone valley version of Sephiroth posting is Wesker posting

"Why isn't Xbox issuing a takedown notice??" They don't want to! They profit off of this!! When you buy Xbox games, when you promote them uncritically, this is what you are helping fund.

Please watch @peterspittech.bsky.social's essay about how intertwined Call of Duty gamer culture is with real-world oppression youtu.be/IQYwCClbDUw

wild yall let this end in a tie

Me, the gamer that doesn't watch anime:

15% of American social lives end tomorrow

This continues to be painfully true

Another 'Yeah, everything in here is good' bundle. Shooty Shooty Robot Invasion is like playing a very funny, very stupid webcomic. Slayers X is a Hypnospace Outlaw-themed Build Engine FPS parody. Sulfur is a great solo extraction-shooter roguelite. Metal Eden is gorgeous & by the Ruiner devs, etc

live look at the two wolves that live within me

I'm taking this to mean that they see Valve as a legitimate competitor and don't wanna help they by putting their games on PC natively. Might make me slightly more likely to try the inevitable PS handheld, but I'm still not picking up any PS6 anytime soon.

Is it crazy that this literally made me tear up at work rn

Surely locking more games behind specific hardware as the price of hardware ramps up to the moon is a good thing for the medium and will benefit developers and players alike

I've put 50 hours into this game across Switch, PC, mobile, PS4, and Xbox. That's on the low end compared to others but for the few months I really got into this game, it really took over my life. I'm terrified to loose my life to this tomorrow.

I think about this take more often than I'd like to.

This week I've played the first few 40ish minutes of both Star Wars Republic Commando and Wanted: Weapons of Fate. Both are trying really fucking aggressively to be cool but only one of them pulls it off. But the one that isn't cool is at least funny in how hard it tries.

bro was Barron a Highguardian

Anyway all of this is endemic of the mode through which we monetize video game development. It's shifted to offloading risk from the wealthy publisher that can afford it (tencent) to the poorer developer that cannot (wildlight) we don't have to make games like that aftermath.site/indie-game-p...

this sucks. no patience for the people laughing at it, calling it concord 2.0, etc. if 2 million people pick up a game, and you have to shutter it and lay everyone off, it doesn't matter if the game is good or bad. it's a symptom of a much bigger and deeper problem.

I'm kinda mad about this actually.

Watching the indie Direct rn and I agree that it's giving Playhouse Disney, but also... Nintendo is a toy company so idk what else I could expect.

The hole in the ozone layer was actually very serious and a global effort allowed it to recover. Y2K WAS actually a serious problem and people worked countless hours to make sure nobody even noticed. Air and water pollution was catastrophic in many places and incredible effort reversed that damage.

It's giving

Just feelin' like posting this one again.
