a lot of the stuff from the indie scene there really stuck with me. "icarus proudbottom's typing party" was also a huge highlight, i literally ran to that one because it IMMEDIATELY hooked me and some other person just also ran up. funniest impromptu game of absolutely anything ever

I FOUND IT, it's called "line wobbler" and it apparently can take place in other forms too??? it just happened to be around an umbrella for magfest. www.wobblylabs.com/line-wobbler

this is REALLY cool. i honestly had the most fun at the indie space just seeing all the experimental control methods

this game. it was played on an umbrella, you were a green light trying to reach the colorful goal at the end, and you had to waggle the door spring joystick rapidly to clear the dangerous red areas. but you were affected by the gravity of the umbrella too, like climbing the pole was tougher

OK, anyone else who was at magfest and went to the indie scene. is there ANY information out there about the light strip game that was played across an umbrella??? it was one of the most captivating games for me and there was no name or instructions or links or anything to follow. wtf was that.

traveling out-of-state as an oregonian is like if "๐Ÿ˜จ who ordered the tax?" was real

o7 i've been through the same steps myself LOL. and they really do not telegraph it!

if all that matters to you is the red dot and not actually marking the msgs as read, Settings > Notifications > Badges also has an option to disable the dot that pops up for unread msgs that don't concern you. pings, DMs, etc. will still give you a push and a dot

(this info is all from mac, YMMV)
January 7, 2026 at 7:49 AM
on discord for desktop at least, there's an "Inbox" in the top right corner that seems to be just this โ€” unread messages that would give you the dot. you can jump to 'em or mark as read from there, iirc

whereas cancelling an ISP is like doing the entire boss rush without being able to take a single hit point. and maybe they do actually throw spikes at you

by the way i haven't really posted about it but MY GOD magfest in 2 days!!! i cannot guarantee i will be comfortable enough to say hello to Just Anyoneโ„ข, but i'm going and will be experiencing cool things and hanging out with friends and eating a lot of food. and hopefully taking a lot of pictures!!

thought that only just occurred to me: layover in SEA, landing in DCA; i'll literally be hopping from one washington straight to the other

i remember when LTE networks were like, just rolling out? and G4, which was like a gaming/tech-y TV network, did a promotional thing for sprint where they swapped the symbols around and were "4G" for like a week or so

anyway, i have a great marketing opportunity for 76 the chain of gas stations

you can tell apart a windows-minded app from any other computer app by the way it tries to re-focus my keyboard and mouse twenty times while it opens, DUDE i'm MULTITASKING.

And last but not least, @rae.wtf, @thrillhousev.bsky.social, @kirkpad.bsky.social and all of the wonderful, wonderful people from the Playdate Squad Discord!! Your enthusiasm and willingness to dig into every narrative detail (and uhhโ€ฆfind bugs) touches our alien hearts most of all.
