I am a sucker for the holidays, so Post Games is on sale till Sunday night.

$1 gets you all episodes. Videos. Bonus content. No ads. Everything.

(But for real, after this, I need to stop with the sales, because this is a terrible way to make money!)

Wife and I have finally gotten to the IBM Watson parts of modern Jeopardy and it’s funny how much worse every episode is.

I'll echo Hayes: if you're into this particular brand of visual novel, Detective Instinct is great! Finished it this morning and was really pleased with how it concluded. Worth it for the soundtrack alone, total Chill Gaming Music While You Work fodder.

If you don't get that the "yucky porn games" are the gateway to censor further media that YOU personally think is acceptable, you need to get your head out of your ass. They're trying to divide people into smaller groups so their collective power is also smaller. Kill the cop in your head.
Already seeing folks say, "Well, HORSES isn't YUCKY PORN like other games are, so..." which is super frustrating.

Now is NOT the time to be throwing the hentai games you happen not to like under the bus. Your rage should be directly at payment processors.

If your team is in need of any audio work, production, concept or 3D art, please consider one of the folks from Soft Rains who were unfortunately affected. They're all unimaginably talented, and whose skills uplift those around them, including in other disciplines.
As 2025 winds to a close, we say goodbye to a few members of our team whose work was instrumental in bringing Ambrosia Sky: Act One to life.

Each of these folks is an incredible talent. Though we've made the difficult decision to part ways for now, I'd be lucky to work with any of them again.

Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum".

PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

Picked this up in 2023 and I've been anticipating this 1.0 version, but the bit I played early on was full of style - the pixel art's sooo good. Lots of good synergies too, plays a bit like Hearthstone. There's even a frog faction!

A common retort I get when arguing about the beauty lost when choosing AI over human collaboration is some version of "how is AI doing [blank] any different from a person doing [blank]?" and I think if you're asking someone to explain how a person might differ from a machine, you're beyond cooked

Jennifer English realizing she's a lesbian and falling in love with one of her mocap directors (Aliona Baranova) over the course of making BG3 and seeing all the queer folks embracing Shadowheart and the impact the game had is genuinely one of the best stories in game production in a long time
Congrats to Jennifer English for winning the Best Lead Performer award at the 2025 #GoldenJoystickAwards!

And her acceptance speech about queer joy was a love letter to @aliona.bsky.social 🥹🌈
