Not great at writing a good description of himself. Potential game designer and/or writer perhaps?

I've been thinking about making this thread for a bit now, ever since I was added to a game creator Starter Pack by @aceottorney.bsky.social, which has led to some people following me.
Bear with me though.
I appreciate the follows, but I have to admit I feel slightly conflicted at this point.

All the Epstein emails are powerful elites saying shit like “Hello my friend the pedophile, i need your advice as a pedophile, what do you think about this other pedophile? Pedophilic Regards, your Friend ;)” and instead of swinging from a gibbet most of them are still writing op-eds against leftism

I'm begging you all in the media. Please read the emails for more than 2 seconds. They don't just say Trump "knew" about underage girls. THE EMAILS SAY HE PERSONALLY PARTICIPATED.

I've been running and gunning through a brand new upcoming title that, to me, is elevating the genre in its own way. I just love the mix of cleverly used gameplay mechanics, the gorgeous pixelart, the great animations, the vibrant but dystopian city of NYC, and the pumping soundtrack. #NeonInferno
Er zijn flink wat klassieke genres die we tegenwoordig in grote getalen zien. Denk aan metroidvanias, tactische rpg's, shoot-em-ups en point-and-click adventures. Neon Inferno treedt ondertussen in de voetsporen van Contra en Gunstar Heroes. retroready.nl/2025/11/12/n...
Neon Inferno verlegt de lat voor het genre (uitgebreide review)
Neon Inferno is een 2d cyberpunkshooter waarin je rennend knalt, maar ook vijanden in de achtergrond moet raken voor een unieke chaos.

So here's the thing, I am not an Achievement Hunter per sé. But I am happy I got a 100% for both @ballxpit.com and @powerwashsimulator.co.uk #2 on Steam this year. Of course, like Vampire Survivors there will be new content that will affect the 100% rating in the future, but for now. I am content.

Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.
They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

Thread about the bullshit pulled by Geoff Keighley and the Game Awards. You thought their reaction to the Palestine comment was bad. Turns out, the entire program was just a way to steal more money and fuck over your creators.
I was a member of TGA Future Class 2022 and lemmee tell ya, my skin has been crawling since
pretty much every interaction I had with them (few) & story I heard about other members' interactions with them (many) was bad. & by bad I mean, so many shades of being used as photo op tokens & nothing more

EXCLUSIVE on @gamedeveloper.bsky.social: not only has The Game Awards not nominated a Future Class for 2025, it's told alumni it "does not have any active programming plans" for the award.
The Future Class page was taken down sometime this year—eliminating a definitive archive of honorees.

perhaps the most egregious thing that happened with the Future Class was when The Game Awards took money from Old Spice in the name of the FC & simply... pocketed it
it wasn't used to fund Future Class initiatives, it wasn't used to help lift marginalised developers
they just profited from us

The AI QA announcements make me furious. QA are essential. They have the ingenuity to break your game in insane ways because players definitely will. Any game out the door without a fuckton of bugs is down to QA. They're so underappreciated and so necessary.
