Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

It's out!!

Google pledges roughly three hours of its annual profit to fight climate change Google and others are committing $100 million to combat climate change.

The perfect headline doesn’t exi…

i went and subscribed to the paid version of proton a few months back 🫠

i've been so deep in ck3's agot conversion mod of late that for a few minutes i was convinced "the life and suffering of sir brante" wasn't a listed game because i searched for it under "ser brante" on autopilot.

That's wild. I guess don't use @proton.me anymore

Oh man, these replies are brutal

I have some things to say about how things are run and @unwinnable.com let me say them!

It's an indictment and a meditation, thanks to the fine storytelling at the core of @torporgames.com.

(Also thank you to @thegladdestthing.itch.io for encouraging me a long time ago to write about Suzerain.)

I’m very bad at this game, and yet every time I play it I have a blast even if I usually die within 20 minutes. The idea of a procedurally generated open-world RPG is such a bafflingly huge concept that seems impossible to pull off, and yet Caves of Qud is exactly that. Incredible game.

whiskerwood shot into my favorites after playing for just a few hours, and it's already consumed most of my spare game time this january. it would be impressive enough as a finished game. that it's still in early access is incredible.

I could have written 10k words on this game. It's remarkable. It's everything you want and need from a city-builder, but also there's transport tycoon and sid meier's colonization stuff in there as well, and even in EA it's almost perfect

easy. chuck schumer is a bitch and a coward. next question.

Now that the cat's out of the bag

SURPRISE

I am incredibly proud to say I got to write the OFFICIAL PREQUEL COMIC to LIFE IS STRANGE: REUNION with the amazing Claudia Leonardi on art. Writing Max and Chloe has been a genuine dream come true and I can't wait for y'all to reunite with them in March!

hey I like that we're all posting thru it but I also wanted to say, in case anybody else is feeling it, that I'm pretty scared and genuinely think that we've passed a real rubicon in the past week or so and that being at the mercy of a handful of dumbfuck lunatics really does a number on your soul.

Hence some of the pitfalls of writing on the Internet, highly visible in e-mail, blogs, and responses to blogs. The mechanical ease and immediacy of electronic communication are deceptive. People write hurriedly, don't reread what they wrote, misread and are misread, get into quarrels, hurl insults, and use flame-throwers because they expect their writing to be understood as if they were talking. It's childish to assume people will understand unexpressed meanings. It's dangerous to confuse self-expression with communication.

This story is a genuinely incredible read.

fwiw this is the kind of stuff that is going to get us through, not playing rambo

leaning toward LACMA just on a subjective "it sounds chewier than MOMA" scale

ok so which gallery is hosting his show of the chewed/eaten photos he then spat back out? the MOMA?

If being hard on yourself worked, it would have worked already

what if the idea of this being some global replacement for twitter is a bad one, and most of us are very happy hanging out in a safer, more curated space instead

People Make Games wins the Knickerbocker Award for Best Games Journalism at the New York Game Awards.

The organizers and contributors of the New York Game Awards take to the stage at the end of the event. Reggie is wearing a tux!

PMG won the Knickerbocker Award for Best Games Journalism last night at the @nyvgcc.bsky.social!

It feels like we've come such a long way since we first launched this thing nearly eight years ago, but winning a journalism award at an event in NEW YORK CITY still seems totally mad to me.
