Fuck you, Ziff Davis.

I will never stop thinking about this Gabe Newell quote

we have reached the post-gaming age. we are at a crossroads where "the gamer" no longer has the cultural health or mass appeal to support games on its own. doubling down on this monoculture approach will result in a self-fulfilling downward spiral. it's time to move on. youtu.be/rToBk5jTh_Y?...

I don't know how anyone can work right now. Here I am worried about literal concentration camps for people who take medication, and I'm supposed to be able to focus on shipping a game? As the industry collapses around us?

If you’re a Visa cardholder you can let them know you won’t be any longer if they do business with fElon. I called and they said they’re taking comments at [email protected]. Maybe if enough of us complain they’ll pull the deal.

I have an idea for a solo journaling RPG but I haven't played one yet. What should I play first?

KEEP CALLING YOUR REPS

I just had to draw the 2025 vibe I was feeling. #2025 #illustration

I wish I could make weird art games and over-automate my house instead of dealing with bullshit

We have this already, it's called fanfiction.

Roadster does a yell

Wow this is terrible news. This was probably my favourite experimental game of 2024. Maybe go play it today and tell Nathalie how great it is: alienmelon.itch.io/shovelware

making your own games is about as much of a cash cow as starting a band
