MinnMax is teaming up with @giantbomb.bsky.social this Friday at 5pm Central for an ICE Out charity stream from our studio in Minneapolis. It'll be simulcast on all channels... www.twitch.tv/minnmaxshow www.youtube.com/minnmax www.twitch.tv/giantbomb www.youtube.com/giantbomb

"I do not feel safe in the country": international developers are skipping GDC because of Trump's border chaos: aftermath.site/i-do-not-feel-...

Finally getting to and hopefully finishing uploading my Persona 5 Royal VODs and I'm getting triggered over seeing these bosses again.

I've been revamping my workflow and tools and think I'm going to be using Notion a lot more. Pls share how you use it (screenshots and/or template links are a great bonus)

I used to do this job back in the day and while it was stressful sometimes, it was also a blast to have so much freedom to cover whatever I wanted alongside big news and events. Oh and hey, you don't have to live in NYC for this!

it's a charity stream now. john and i will be live in just a bit donate: give.mn/ve6jjf watch: twitch.tv/nikigrayson // twitch.tv/vgbees

We might have finally found the point where Mina will say “This is enough snow.”

come to my house for a free lobotomy

Figuring out OUR five favorites was challenging but super rewarding. I love the list we came up with.

I spent the weekend trying to process what's happening in my city of Minneapolis, Minnesota by creating this video. youtu.be/W1dyNcRGRXY

"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know. This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

STATEMENT FROM THE NATIONAL BASKETBALL PLAYERS ASSOCIATION (NBPA) AND ITS EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ON THE FATAL SHOOTING IN MINNEAPOLIS BY ICE

How do we see the future? Is it an expansion of possibility and imagination, a canvas on which we can paint anything? Or is the future a contraction? A place where ideas are bound by the spaces we’re given to create them — a place that determines what we’re allowed to dream youtu.be/F0K2DnI1TDk

so so proud and grateful to everybody showing up in every way, in our state and outside of it. we will win. there are so many more of us, and we will never tolerate what's happening here.

I think a lot of us get hope wrong. Hope, I do not believe, is an emotion. In fact, hope makes space for lots of emotions to exist alongside it. You can DO hope scared, angry, sad etc... Hope doesn't find us. We make hope through action and struggle. It's a practice of living and is re-made daily.

Our neighborhoods are mourning, candlelit vigils and walks are being held on several blocks tonight and candles are being left out in remembrance of those harmed by ICE.

One last boost for the evening crowd. This has raised a truly staggering amount of money, thank you all!! Also a couple people have said this is one of their favorite videos of mine, which is very nice to hear.

“We can all agree this is bad” what’s sad though is we really can’t. Some people are just really that hateful. They would rather see us lose all our rights, have citizens gunned down in the streets, if it means less brown people. It’s as “cut off your nose to spite your face” as it gets.

Good morning! Fuck ice!

A giant sea of Minnesotans protested yesterday without a single incident. Today, ICE gestapo unloaded bullets into a man in broad daylight. There is no "keeping the temp down" comprehensive enough for fascist pigs looking to murder. @governorwalz.mn.gov

hey i know i'm not exactly going out of my comfort zone here but this Saturday the 24th i'm playing 12 hours of Hitman to fundraise for MIRAC, a group helping lead the fight against ICE in Minnesota. random (brown) people are being violently kidnapped without warrants every day. let's talk about it.

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

My new video comes out tomorrow, but if you donate any amount of money to the National Immigration Law Center, I will send you the link right now. tiltify.com/@yacobg42/su...

ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.

It was SO cold but the sense of community was overwhelming. Every corner had people handing out hand warmers, warm drinks, and snacks to protestors. My toes were numb and my lashes were frosty but it's nothing compared to the pain our immigrant neighbors are enduring. MN Strong 💙

genuinely stunning image

What’s the most boring game mechanic or genre you like? Mine has to be spot the difference games. Like, I love them but I’m sitting here like “oh these sticks are stacked differently!… this is fucking heat.” Like that’s some boring ass shit but I love it.

Dogpile is a wonderful game. I think it's easy to play a little bit & say "yeah it's cool but it's not that strategic" but that's part of what makes it work. Every design choice creates this cohesively casual experience without sacrificing fun. Here's why you should play it:

Minneapolis is MinnMax's home and it's being torn apart by ICE agents with no regard for our rights. ICE is harassing/abducting people of color on a daily basis. Please donate to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota to help provide free legal representation to those in need. bit.ly/minnmaxgives

If you put all of the MinnMax cohorts in a house together, who will survive the most deadly challenges imaginable? We hope you enjoy this twisted episode of New Show Plus! youtu.be/u78j27xH7qg

Breaking: Ubisoft cancels Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake and five other games

Adding a projector to our room has increased my quality of life immensely.

I am not proud to be an American. I have never, generally, felt patriotic. But I have a deep love for the cities here that have made me who I am and that can't be divorced from the country itself. For me, to know America is to hate it and to love America is to refuse to leave it.

I oscillate between really trying to focus on my goals this year and being really angry and sad about the state of the country.

CRASHOUT FOR THE AGES

Lock-in or leave-it > New Year's Resolutions. If you're a chronic goalsetter (and failure) you'll get a kick out of this format.

well that's a bad new term

If your studio is new then the first game you make there is that studio's debut game. "it's not the first game the founder worked on though." Okay the first actual game most people worked on is some random quick project. The fuss over debut game is an over commitment to a purism that doesn't exist.
