It’s like magic. It’s all an illusion anyway, so just make the illusion really good

I always enjoy it when I get the opportunity to talk to game designers about lying to players. Underrated technique.

an underappreciated skill in game design is "lying to players." games only exist in a player's mind!! you can change the nature of the game without changing its core logic by just telling players that the logic is something different!!

COMING TOMORROW: "THE KRILL UPDATE" FOR FISH FEAR ME - 3 NEW BOATS - 2 NEW FISH - 3 NEW WEAPONS - 9 NEW ACHIEVEMENTS I HOPE YOU ENJOY.

can we keep using 2025 as a generic future year forever? like in 2040 we'll still be like "in 2025 we're gonna have flying cars"

wild to think that the baby born in the dashcon ballpit would be in middle school now

it's important to experience a shrimp color emotion now and then, when possible

hangin out

Can confirm this game is fantastic!! Imo feels sorta twin-sticky because of the aiming and buttons, but wow does it work for it. Give the demo a look!

you know what, i'm impressed: it's been over a week and i still haven't seen a single deltarune character's penis

i think in order to make good art you gotta be extremely opinionated about Something. could be the process, could be the tools, could be the results, but you need to have a thesis you're trying to prove *via* art

doctor who is a great show to be a fan of because it can literally never die. the last time it got cancelled resulted in some of the greatest doctor who of all time. and then they brought it back again

Playing Beatdown City Survivors, one of the best survivorslikes I've played in a long time. In a genre rapidly approaching staleness, it manages to create a mechanically unique experience that feels like a breath of fresh air. Highly recommended!

I'm gonna be at Narrascope next weekend!! If you're around, feel free to say hi!! (I will not be posting a description of myself, but I am a very recognizable person. You will see a person and go "Huh, I wonder if that's her." And you might be right!)
