Leaving the comments on any tweet about Relooted is an intentional move to curry engagement.

Can’t wait for that game on Feb 10

Yeah that’s a good idea.
Okay well give it a go.
I want a version of Variety's Actors on Actors for indie game developers. High-production, one-on-one videotaped conversations between devs who admire each other's work.

Whenever I got a chance to speak with Vince Zampella he was always nice and always approachable and would always ask what do you like and what can we do better

A leader who genuinely cared about making great games for everyone to enjoy

Heartbreaking news and condolences to his friends and family ❤️

Vince Zampella was the absolute best to ever do it. Literally. His impact across publishers, studios, franchises and genres was unmatched. Commercially and creatively he was an absolute juggernaut. A tremendous loss for this industry, and to those who were close to him. Rest in peace.

Terminator 2D: No Fate is a strong retro adaptation of a beloved film, but it is not without some design annoyances that we’ve moved beyond.

Legit had a “He sounds like Thanos” moment then was like “Oh wait….”
Realizing the old priest in the new Knives Out was Josh Brolin was a real "damn I'm old" moment.

Last night's biggest surprise was Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic, led by Casey Hudson, who directed KOTOR (and Anthem). Exciting news for lots of people... but Lucasfilm says the studio was founded this year, which means that 2030 is an *optimistic* guess. Maybe it'll be a PlayStation 7 game
