I've been posting about how my game sucks all week and I don't wanna be one of those people hiding behind 12 layers of irony constantly

So, to break the kayfabe briefly, I'm actually super proud of/pleased with it and if you like exploration and secrets you should check it out
My game's weirdest feature explained in 5 words or less:

Awful controls. Just terrible. Dreadful!

The way Labour are talking about migrants validates far right narratives of dehumanisation *at a time of far right riots and racist violence*. The leadership group responsible needs to be removed right now as a matter of public safety. This is simply a factual description of the situation before us.
Honestly, the potential case for getting rid of Starmer before was the lack of any political project and absence of charisma. But now No.10 is creating a moral imperative for the PLP to act as well.

I've organized a small event called Six Videogames in a local bar. We talked about modern underground indie game scene and played my games. It was a blast! People, mostly not from the world of gamedev, were so invested, I've got so much feedback and the vibes were overhelmingly good!

It is looking increasingly likely that Ana - probably the person most involved in organizing protests against payment processor censorship recently - is getting hit by retaliation by those organizations.
Friend tried to donate to my Throne, flagged by fraud detection at Bank of America — bank identified the transaction as specially for “giantess voretuber Ana Valens”

I suspect I faced those Patreon / Ko-fi dings b/c financial institutions have me, specifically, on record as a high risk recipient!

doing some work with interesting space filling patterns. these take a very long time to settle, but result in these very deliberate feeling, rectilinear puzzle piece buildings. they'd be great with generated streets and some garden rules, for town or city block fill.

the game so sick the so-called 'algorithm' trembles--no--cowers in fear at its sheer unmarketability...

I figure oversharing on cool visuals from my game is really only a problem if said game ever finally releases.
Sort of a "win-win" there then.

(and there's still a bunch of stuff I'm going to keep under wraps permanently)

Many stories of haunted houses may be related to Cyclosa imago, also known as the Haunting Spider.
When a colony settles an abandoned building, they collectively defend against human intrusion by forming dense webs, which have been interpreted as ghostly apparitions.

The PS2 truly is the best console ever because it is constantly becoming more powerful. Each time we say something "looks like a PS2 game" we're talking about a game of a higher fidelity than the last. What the PS2 is capable of in 2025 is so far beyond what it was capable of in 2003. That's amazing
