My 2025 Game of the Year is… Being Broke and Patient Gaming
How playing old games was the silver lining to a year of financial stress
pancaketime.home.blog
I revived a barely used blog I started years ago! Wrote a personal essay on how I spent a lot of this year on older games while broke, and how it was a surprisingly rewarding experience that made me rethink the way I engage with the hype cycle of new releases

People keep saying "you have to adopt AI! it's inevitable! eventually you won't be able to avoid it!" and if that is true then how do you explain this *tilts my phone forward toward you so you can clearly see it has a headphone jack*

Going to say what I normally say in response to stuff like the Curvy Isabelle Mod/Furry/Anti-Furry/Gooner discourse:
Stay in your fucking lane. Unless you've got a really good fucking reason to pick a fight with a total stranger, don't give them shit. Don't go joining other people's fights either.

It really bums me out that with how much cruelty we face on a macro level, people are just so committed to being cruel to one another on a micro level too. What’s the point! Anyone with a soul is suffering! Why are we so insistent on making life more unbearable over nothing!

I'm hoping to bring in more commissions in 2026, and with that in mind I'd like to join as an artist on Vgen! vgen.co/mousbones
I've attached some examples of my recent work - if you like them, you can help me out by liking/reposting! More eyes means better chances for my lucky #VGenCode!

The way the press is treating chatbots, like they have agency and they “know” things all of a sudden, crossed the line recently from dumb and obsequious to something else entirely. Treating them as alive and making conscious decisions is an almost religious belief. It won’t age well.

Came across this on Instagram and was immediately annoyed - most people currently alive can’t read most historical documents for a myriad of reasons that far exceed handwriting. That’s why people who actually do read those documents (historians) learn palaeography!

Give yourself something to look forward to next year. Something less substantial than a resolution which can carry regret if you can't stick to it. Think of a book you want to read, a genre of music you'd like to learn more about, a curiosity to chase no matter how trivial. Keep your spark lit.

Everyone developing a game should play some 8-bit and 16-bit RPGs and think about how very little dialogue you actually need in order to effectively establish atmosphere and tell a great story.

Every time I sit down to play a few levels of Angeline Era, it throws something at me that I didn’t expect. Just some really creative ideas in every corner of this game.

They gave Balatro an 18+ only rating because it had poker cards in it.
Disney Solitaire has literal actual real money gambling with dark pattern lootbox microtransactions and is for ages 3 and above.

When an author writes an unfinished story, but there is a promise it will continue, imagination is licensed to the audience. When the story ends, the license of the audience to imagine is revoked. This is the impossible problem of franchise fandom; you cannot reclaim territory ceded to imagination.

It doesn’t fix things, but it really does bring me comfort to know how miserable some of the worst people are. Donald Trump tweeting over 200 times on Christmas. Billionaires fighting with strangers online during the holidays. Everything about Elon Musk
