I am so glad to see so many people vibing with Peripeteia. It's a weird one but clearly resonating with a lot of people. Just remember: For all its mad scale and ambition, the whole dev team was two people when it went it came to Kickstarter, adding a third later to focus on technical issues.

Was browsing Steam and I found this game with that classic PC-98 visual novel feel. I am INTRIGUED. store.steampowered.com/app/2118420/...

no normal people know what journalists do. so much so that i made a text game about it years ago to try and explain bijanstephen.itch.io/a-day-in-the...

Not a fan of people going "Marvel Rivals will be fine, those US people aren't that important to the game" when that's not the concern rn, the concern is that working in the Video Game Industry is hell because there's no job security anymore because of unnessarcy layoffs. Think of the goddamn people.

I’m seeing a lot of soft takes from industry mutuals at the moment that we shouldn’t be so hard on those who use generative AI because it’s becoming harder and harder to resist. Wrong. Betraying your ethics (and your peers) because ‘everyone else is doing it’ does not suddenly make it acceptable.

Utterly excoriating review of Captain America here, incredibly well-written and reasoned too. The sort of thing any critic should feel jealous they didn't write: www.rogerebert.com/reviews/capt...

lowpoly horror game protagonist OC just for fun

he really went off with this one

Every news outlet wrote “trump distances himself from project 2025” because trump lied about not knowing what it is, and not a single one of those news outlets would ever acknowledge their role in spreading that lie because they believe covering trump means repeating what he says because it’s “news”

This is my OC Lynn, she's a hero who doesn't know she's dating a villain (Him coming later). I forgot to post this here #OC #Characterdesign

The Video Game History Foundation's online library, a modern wonder of the world, is now open: aftermath.site/video-game-his...

Buttondown is super easy to use/migrate to, much cheaper than Substack, and not owned by fascism apologists ✨

I couldn't agree more. As legislators, trans people have so many issues we care about and want to pass policy on (infrastructure, housing, healthcare, etc.) But as TRANS legislators, we must first and foremost stand defiantly against the efforts of our government to eradicate our community.

The mask is off with these fucking fascists. Trump is calling trans military members dishonorable liars, is shutting down gov't funded programs to try to root out trans people, and red states across the country are following suit. There's barely any pretense to their hateful policy anymore.

As always I would recommend Gita’s blog on the topic aftermath.site/website-musk...

leaving the cruelty aside for just a minute it's absolutely humiliating to imagine being my age or older and getting excited because you think you've been given permission to say a bad word. what are you gonna do next, ride your tricycle past the end of the block

Fed up with Meta? Avoiding Instagram or Facebook isn’t enough to stop Meta from harvesting and profiting from your private information. Here’s how to limit Meta’s ability to monetize your personal data.

Newsletter: Mark Zuckerberg's MAGA pivot is really just the continuation of years of rotting out the core products of Instagram and Facebook - and begins an era of unrestrained, unrepentant growth where tech will proudly make their products even worse. www.wheresyoured.at/the-slop-society/

I mentioned it before, but the level designer on this, BroDute, has literaly produced more 3D platformers (full-game-length Mario 64 romhacks, specifically) in the past decade than most people have played IN THEIR LIVES. Guy is one of the most experienced in the field, worldwide. It's gonna be good

Nothing is more effective as a game walkthrough than an enormous plaintext document from gameFAQS dot com.

Update: Journalism should not roleplay as marketing Some valid frustration has been expressed to us regarding the article, so the Rascal crew felt it appropriate to add a significant preface. The original piece will remain below, unaltered.

Apparently folks think that writing that contains an em dash is a dead giveaway that it's from ChatGPT, which I guess is a sign that most people have never read anything in their lives.

Exasperating to see a game this good failing to reach more players. A true original — atmospheric, memorable and properly exciting

Four years since my son wrote the best opening to a mystery novel ever written.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

very easy to get caught up in the loud obnoxious grifter assholes who decry “wokeness” & complain representation is ruining their “hobby” but the thing that matters is, a bunch of people chanting TRANS RIGHTS raise $2mil+ for great charities twice a year, every year. that’s what it’s all about

Games Done Quick this year has been a great reminder that videogame culture - the actual culture, not aggrieved incels on Youtube - is pretty fucking cool. You'll never hear about some grifter raising millions for charity to riotous applause.
