pixel art jungle scene with towers covered in flowering vines - there are little imp creatures hanging around looking naughty and one is fishing for monsters in a well using a firefly as bait.

This abomination should be cast into the hellfire. Total depravity.

Bean alert

Little black and white kitten sleeping. Nearest the viewer are all the pink toe pads. So soft and like cute haricot beans.

"plot for a game i'll never make is the plot for a film of a game neither of which i made"

ha ha ha i've never seen it so i hope not 😂

Hallowiain @gameartacademic.bsky.social · 1d

ah ok - possibly a head gasket - not the worst but still not desirable or particularly cheap. Anyway, i'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

Game i will never make where you play an out of favour actor known for action movies. You take one last gig and are flown off to an island where it turns out the traps are real and it's all live streamed to a private audience. You have to rely on your memory of acting in action movies to survive.

Thanks Casey, it came after a long period of doing nothing, I felt really stressed out and just lost myself in it.

Fortunately nobody I know in my bit of Europe wants to move to the US for the exact reason you point out. We can see it’s descending into something very familiar here.

Every week we get another indication of how likely Reform is to form the next government and Labour panics and announces another reactionary policy to appease right wing voters, witlessly centralising more authoritarian power in the state they are about to hand over to Nigel Farage.

Smelling of spoiled milk at a police checkpoint afterwards is a dead giveaway

Milk can actually make eye injury worse or cause eye infection.

Coming pre-equipped with milk to a demo could be used as evidence against someone. In a civil disorder situation, it’s usually best, if arrested, to claim you were a bystander caught up in the mess.

Use only water or fresh air on tear gas or pepper spray.

No milk, vinegar, antacids, urine, etc. and especially not in eye.

Thank me later,
