I think a lot of Aussie games media have shown their true colours today. Regardless of what was shown on TV, it's pretty disappointing to see the celebratory pile on, but not overly surprising

The AFL just can't bloody help itself. Constant rule changes, bullshit opening round and now this. We don't need a wildcard weekend, just another example of the league's money-grabbing focus. If you can't finish top 8 at the end of the season you haven't earned the right to play finals.

For a company making arguably the most anticipated game ever, which will probably make the most money a game has ever made, it's really disappointing to see it seemingly treat its workers this way

Had an absolute blast playing Pro Jank Footy at PAX – my highlight of the show. Really excited for its release next year.
PREVIEW // Pro Jank Footy

"Just like my stint playing division three reserves for South Yarra in the SFNL, my hands-on time with Pro Jank Footy wasn’t long enough but it was bloody fun, and probably hilarious for those watching from the sidelines"

Happy new Dayseeker day. Already given the new album Creature in the Black Night one spin and it's excellent. Very keen to hear some of these live in December.

Super stoked about Electric Callboy coming back to Melbourne next year, but not stoked about $180 for general admission. I'll be there though.

I was there watching @auralynxian.bsky.social while she was performing the tortuous tongue tango. Game looks awesome – I said it plays like Life is Strange meets Superbad (not the sexual humour) and I'm sticking by it. Very keen.
PREVIEW // Mixtape

"I’m controlling two slimy, pink tongues as they plunge into each other’s mouths. They dance around in languid circles, like a load of sopping wet clothing in a front loader...This is Mixtape."

REVIEW // Ghost of Yōtei

Ghost of Yōtei does more than live up to the mantle of the Ghost; it solidifies itself as an instant modern classic.
