Hi I‘m Lukan i write horror, erotica and often a fun combination of the two; and I’m co-opting the #portfolioday tag because writers deserve eyes on their work too. You can pay me to write stuff for you, isn’t that nuts?

Unsighted is a game way more people need to play.
So that's Unsighted cleared and its a ton of fun. The timer isn't as bad as I thought it would be on the normal difficulty anyway and despite me kinda sucking at parrying mechanics I managed. You need a guide to figure out the best ending. Fun recommend by @caseyexplosion.bsky.social curator page.

This might be a hot take but I think video games are neat, especially how people can make their own indie games.

Essentially, I think that LLM-generated dialogue only makes sense if you believe that the product of writing is words.

But the product of writing isn't words, any more than the product of justice is prisoners, or the product of love is weddings. The product of writing is meaning.

the good news is that the media attention and support from an audience has helped Horses do well enough that Santa Ragione has been able to pay all its owed royalties and loans. so it's not in debt.

the bad news is it's still not enough to keep the studio together.

Someone has just restored "Daicon 3" from a rare 8mm copy.
It's the best version to date.

Oh, yeah, NPC writing is the best. You can do worldbuilding, add a gameplay tip, or just invent a memorable weirdo. Or a whole city of weirdos. It's great.

Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art
