I have finished "Type Help", a database-style thinky narrative game which I can't think of anything to say about it that isn't spoilery. It sucked me in hard for two straight evenings. Excellent stuff. william-rous.itch.io/type-help

Tried out the demo of HYPERSLICE an upcoming title from the developer of DASHPONG (@mreliptik.bsky.social). Seemed to require ridiculous precision when I started, but after practice becoming second nature. A compulsive arena shooter without shooting, only push or slice. store.steampowered.c... 1/2

Hello I've been watching old episodes of Robot Wars on YouTube and it led me down a big rabbit hole looking for a good robot fighting game. Plus! Some bonus thoughts about the sorry state of celebrity nerds. www.pcgamer.com/games/action...

Why is the game Uranus called Uranus? What's up with the winking cherub? Why is it eyeballs with wings? Can I win a match vs @geggis.bsky.social? Only one of these questions will be answered in this week's Side by Side episode on the two-player eye-'em-up URANUS. Watch here: www.youtube.com/watc...

Some games just catch your eye, and with Uranus, you have to make sure you don't catch your opponents'. I particularly loved the music and crackling fuzzy visuals in this.

The local multiplayer game we have for you this week is the eye-popping URANUS from notagamestudio (@anacatte.bsky.social, @isaquepicaosanches.bsky.social et al) which is Blockade/Light Cycles on a sphere with a few tricks up its eyeballs. Watch @geggis and I trying it out: www.youtube.com/watc...

What game have you all been sitting on? URANUS (@anacatte.bsky.social / @isaquepicaosanches.bsky.social). This is what @geggis.bsky.social and I will be chatting about in next week's Side by Side episode. [Lots of flashing images in this one so avoid if you have photosensitive epilepsy.] Excerpt:

In 2019 we built a joke game as part of a Rube Goldberg marketing campaign that would let indies turn the tables on key scammers. It got banned off Steam, exposed a $1.9M bug, confused the wrong scammers AND burned our marketing budget for zero gain. This is the story of Drawkanoid: Review Breaker.

INDIES, do not make me wait to 90% of the way through your trailer before showing me what your game actually is! Yes, I know you spent a lot of time and effort on the flashy intro cartoon and it's very cool, but you're trying to sell me on GAMEPLAY show me what the GAMEPLAY please.

Our new paper, based on data from 1,705 studies, shows that pesticides are toxic to organisms they are not intended to harm, including fungi, microbes, plants, insects, & vertebrates such as ourselves. Questions the wisdom of applying over 3 million tonnes of them every year...

LONG THREAD: Okay, let's break down a few things, both about ID cards and Labour's ill-advised tactics on "fighting Reform". First off, I personally don't think ID cards would work in UK, because we are objectively bad at things like this, but they work elsewhere so this isn't about them per se. 1/

Every year, @geggis.bsky.social and I run the short video series Side by Side covering local multiplayer games. Our 8th season begins today! Episode 1 is on intense arena shooter STRAY SHOT (@punkcake.club). We died fast yet always came back for more punishment. Watch: www.youtube.com/watc...

Quoted GIF immediately gave me an idea for local 2-player shooter. Feel free to use it. One player controls a gun on the X axis, one player controls a gun on the Y axis. Could be competing or cooperating. An obvious idea would be intersection point is special. Turn board to make players symmetric.

Really glad to have made this little video - it's short, snappy, and hopefully helps people discover lots of great puzzles! I think most people aren't aware of just how many cool puzzle types there are beyond the usual suspects like Sudoku.
