Yesterday, the Epic Games Store decided at the last minute not to distribute the game, after having previously approved a release build. HORSES is otherwise now available on GOG, Itch, and Humble for $4.99. www.horses.wtf

One of my favourite games of the year!
We were hit by a strange issue that made it impossible to nominate Öoo for the Steam Awards… it was pretty disheartening 😢
But it looks like the problem has finally been fixed!
If you have a moment, I’d really appreciate your vote 👍

A reminder that for every billion dollars made on PC gaming, Newell pockets $300m.
He keeps out of the public eye better than some billionaires, but he is still a libertarian billionaire, and billionaires should not exist.

Something really fucked up for video game media just happened... BKinG, the "NoClip of China", got his YT channel deleted twice and gave up on YouTube.
His channel had dozens of documentaries on the development of all sorts of important Chinese & Taiwanese games - all posted with English subtitles.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

The original Doom was full of demons and crosses to be edgy, but metal album art aesthetics aren't edgy anymore. Nobody is gonna accuse Doom: The Dark Ages of being satanic in a bad way or blame it for school shootings. They need to step it up. Doomguy has to transition and get real good at tennis.
