I've been helping Kas with his game for the last couple of years.
What started as an autobiographical nightmare set in an alternate world, is now making its way into ours.
So, the nuclear prophecy is out now for you to play!

It’s almost disorienting to see something this nakedly wonderful put in place by a non Scandinavian Western government in 2025.

Way to go Ireland.

Mike Sowden @mikeachim.bsky.social · 2d

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

TO A T lavishes idiosyncratic detail on its ground-level view of the world. Read @midfalutin.bsky.social's review.

'To a T' Review: A Lovingly Esoteric Tribute to Growing Pains

The one-joke premise of Takahashi Keita's 'To a T' keeps paying off in more esoteric ways as the game goes on.

liked this @pushtotalk.gg article with @brkeogh.bsky.social on game industry economies: www.pushtotalk.gg/p/gamings-gr... … so if small game studios are like bands, are game bundles like our version of support acts? are all these game fests like touring?

in pondlife: discone (a videogame), you can jump & surf on anything. there's no hard distinction between wall or ground. there's also no combo meter or trick button, you move your character (her name is icecream) and make it all up.

Our first ep on KOTOR II is here covering the prologue and the first 20 minutes or so of Peragus. We dig into our characters, our mod list, some technical considerations. First, though, we answer some recurring questions about last week's announcement. amorecivilizedage.net/110-characte...
