Trying the demo and wishlisting the game goes a long way toward helping us out! And if you like what you see, check out our Kickstarter. There are some pawsome rewards, including an acrylic painting of your pet, or get your cat in the game as a playable skin!

So tired of companies shoving pointless AI into everything. I was at the store and saw some $200 LED Christmas lights that you can control with its own dedicated AI chatbot. Stoppit. Nobody needs that.

*sigh* I want these... just not in Diablo IV.

Is it selling out if you're using your own IP to hawk items? That's the quandary that we're all forced to ponder thanks to Diablo IV and its recently unveiled StarCraft II cosmetics bundles

Do games in 2025 really need to warn me that they autosave? And, worse, make that screen not immediately skippable? It's such a standard thing now that I feel like you should warn me if you *don't* autosave.

Alright then, never mind 😄
Shows how much I know about the popular musics you kids listen to these days.

ChaosConstant @chaosconstant.bsky.social · 27d

I always wonder when they get "celebrity" movie composers like this (and Daft Punk on the last one) how much is actually them and how much is ghostwriten by someone who normally writes movie scores.

This was back when you only got a few megabytes of storage for your email, so everyone's inboxes filled up, and then it compounded with rejection messages. Lots of people were mad, and they lost like 75% of their subscribers in a day. That was the end of that distro list.

ChaosConstant @chaosconstant.bsky.social · 29d

I remember when my dad used to help run an email distro list in the 90s. It was fairly big, until one day vacation responders became a thing. Two people turned on their responders at the same time, and suddenly everyone got these two people's vacation messages hundreds of times per hour.

That's a common misconception. GenY is actually a nickname for Geniffer.

A fantastic actor, kind of wasted on this character, mostly because of the aforementioned 4 hours worth of makeup.

ChaosConstant @chaosconstant.bsky.social · Sep 5

It looks super fun!

Everyone is talking about Silksong, but I never finished the first Hollow Knight, so I'm starting that over and pretending I'm playing the latest thing.
