Since I just sold a copy (YAY!), I'm going to #SelfPromoSaturday what I think is my best named game:

Claws & Affect - Cats versus the Supernatural.

And "affect" is used correctly!

Okay, I can open them in Firefox... but not Adobe... very weird.

I'm getting a "damaged file" error when I try to open "Cosmoscrawler_V1.1.pdf".

Okay, I'm getting that error on The Long Walk pdfs a well.

But the "Cosmoscrawler_cards" pdf opens fine... not sure if this is something on my end or your end.

I'm using Adobe Reader.

Sorry I can't give you another sale, I'm somewhat of a poor game designer myself!

I'll spread the word though!

A game you cannot win.

How long can you survive in the post-apocalypse?

Accidentally decided on the theme for my Halloween movie watching:

Androids/synthetic people/replacement humans

They're not all "horror", specifically, but they can still be unnerving and gory at times.

Let me know if you have any suggestions for on-theme movies.

I've got a few on my tentative list, but I'd like to see other people's thoughts before I share them.

Real people only!

The original M3GAN was a big hit here, especially with my daughter (She went as M3GAN for Halloween two years ago) and I really liked the subtext of the first movie.

And 2.0 plays a little more on the "fun/silly" side, but is still a good ride. It's like T2 vs The Terminator; we quite enjoyed it.
kevinpetker.bsky.social
Second feature, watched this week, was M3GAN 2.0 (2025).

Follow up to the surprise creepy doll hit #M3GAN (2022), this one follows in the cybernetic footsteps of T2 to become more action (and comedy) that the original.

All the (surviving) cast returns to good effect.

M3GAN 2.0 (2025) ⭐ 6.1 | Action, Sci-Fi, Thriller

The first feature, watched last week, was Companion (2025).

I've loved Sophie Thatcher's performances since I saw her in Prospect (2018) and Jack Quaid, and the rest of the small cast, are great here too.

Some fun twists and topical commentary re: AI and humanity.

Companion (2025) ⭐ 6.9 | Sci-Fi, Thriller

I don't think I've ever seen any exposure on Reddit turn into sales.

I've had my games mentioned there multiple times and seen huge surges of "new views" from those mentions and see it result in zero sales.

And, yeah, they tend to be very ad adverse.

It was always fun gaming with you and yours, Xavid!

Travel back to Boston (or anywhere else in the US) is really not in our cards in the foreseeable future.

But if it does, someday, come about, I'll definitely be reaching out to you!

"I really like this." - her comment after we finished the first section; so, I think this is going very well!

I don't get the appeal either, but I can see it as a form of very structured improv so I can kind of grasp what people might see in it, but, for me, it's completely uninteresting.
