I'm Katie and I write about #IndieGames on YouTube.

I specialize in video essays about game themes, and discuss how games can make us more resilient to real world challenges.

I'm usually hanging out with catburger, a talking hamburger cat. We run a diner in space together. It's a whole thing.

I think this thread on Horses' steam ban is more for my fellow sickos than poor Webster who probably didn't need me gabbing his ear off (typing his eyes off?) today. If you like art games like me it might be a neat read?

(Anyone who is even a little mean to Webster gets my wrath)
Okay. This is quite long and I'm sorry for words-walling you. I'm apparently pretty passionate about this. I don't intend this as an attack at all at all, I just think a comprehensive answer is deserved here.

Feel old yet?

What do you mean yet! I've felt old since my first visit to the chiropractor and that was a decade ago!

All the more reason to cover it!
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...

Santa Ragione are a well-known studio, covered by a great many mainstream outlets. Their latest game will not be releasing on Steam for... reasons? Steam won't tell them why, won't tell them what needs fixing, and won't communicate in general.

Every other store will carry it. Just not Steam.

Thinking about about what Severance/Pluribus say about our zeitgeist...

One popular topic in the 00s was "What Is Reality" (the matrix), often attributed to the internet becoming mainstream and the introduction of this space that wasn't reality but was nonetheless real into daily life
It is interesting though, that severance is about dividing the self and pluribus is about dissolving borders between self and others. It's all about social boundaries, seems like a zeitgeist emerging out of COVID? But I suppose 2 examples isn't much of a trend, despite their popularity

Get in, losers, we're talking about tools and history and humanity, and there's a lot of satisfying footage of bad guys getting absolutely merc'd by things that weren't designed to merc bad guys.

Big ups to @katieandcatburger.bsky.social for her absolute S-tier voice work! Give it a watch, yeah?

Feeling like an weirdo because everyone I talk to about pluribus thinks the pluribus is the antagonist and I'm like, idk they seem chill it doesn't seem so bad.

But then again, I always joke about diving head first into that LCL and yes I know they reflects poorly on my mental health, idc

A follow up thought-- I think when we write about hate it's often capital H Hate, racism, homophobia, etc. and that is important to confront head on!! But what we don't write about as often is pointed intimate directed hate. They wronged me. I have no mouth Am hate. I'm talking vendetta fuel.
I've been writing about Hate lately, as in the emotion, which means I've been struggling with my own Hate lately, and BOy does it ever make it challenging to be a human
