Upon listening to 2 or more Polyphonic Spree songs most criminals feel uplifted enough to stop crime entirely.
A single Polyphonic Spree song is often uplifting enough to prevent a crime.

[ NEXT EVENT ] new type of event going off AUG 15 w/ some like-minded communities!! brand new inter-community format and we're gonna be dialing it in TOGETHER with a fundraiser! we got fire art from the HBI vaults to share, loads of new fun from loads of crews, plus a brand NEW game showcase!! 🌄👾
proud to include Dyebreaker in this bundle. seen so many talented peers lose their jobs and what strikes me is how often these people are the BEST at what they do, which draws them onto important new projects that need their skill, which are then vulnerable to cuts or cancellation. it's so backwards
In response to the unprecedented number of game developers laid off this year, we have created a bundle on itch to benefit a Game Industry Hardship Fund, managed by @videogameworkers.bsky.social. More than 100 games for 10+ bucks! Please share widely and donate generously! itch.io/b/3802/game-...
Layoffs hit Double Fine today, and I'm sorry to report that I was one of the ones hit. If you need a game designer with tech chops and 2+ decades of experience, here I am.
I wish it was easier to figure out if I like Deerhoof or not. I heard Friend Opportunity almost 20 years ago and I still haven't sorted it out.
Rocket Dog v0.06 Beta is available now on @itch.io! There's been so much cool stuff added to make the game look and sound like a real thing in the last few months, it was killing me that the beta didn't reflect all of it! A lot of new art and music. Full credits on the page! indomitablerocket.dog
Went on a long 19 month journey with UFO 50 from building the LX in January 2025 to installing it at @wonderville.nyc to cosplaying as Woogy at @magfest.org and it’s finally done- 50 cherries. What a ride. What a game. Thank you @mossmouth.bsky.social

Added a little "now playing" banner to Rocket Dog this weekend. If you make bombastic jungle/dnb tracks, hit me up! I don't have much money for licensing but I have a little bit set aside, and I want the soundtrack to live up to the rave flyer menus!

You Don't Have To Hand It To Microsoft For A Well-Planned Bloodbath
People are being laid off in a horrendous job market. You do not have to praise the muddled prose of the rich and insulated.

Microsoft engineered this so that it looked the least bad optically while at the same time still committing a slaughter, all so that Satya Nadella can still dick around with more useless AI horseshit. Fuck him and fuck Microsoft.
If you are one of the many valuable workers callously laid off for corporate interests today, please consider applying to our hardship fund.
Proud to announce our HARDSHIP FUND: uvw-cwa.org/hardship-fun... If you've been recently laid off and need support, we got you.

Woke up from a dream that I made a weedian costume for Halloween with a functioning hookah backpack. Rare that I have such good ideas in my dreams.

Out of all Star Trek captains, Kirk is easily the one beefing with the most clouds
I can’t believe I accidentally bought tickets to see the parody film Bathrooms
Olivia Rodrigo is genuinely at her best when she sounds like Queeblo
It's obviously bad that Freedom 250 redirected donations intended for America 250, but also what were you doing donating to any birthday party for America?
Another banger Rocket Dog screen courtesy of @jfriedhoff.bsky.social! First image is the new High Score screen. The other two are some of the rave flyer refs I gave her to look at! I'll reply to this with a vid of the screen because I'm pretty happy with how it came out animated! #indiegames
If you're curious about Hypnogenesis, a video feedback space shooter, @allenriley.com edited our @exgs.bsky.social talk from @officialgdc.bsky.social into a clean video with lots of game footage! #indiegames #videofeedback www.youtube.com/watch?v=n38C...

Heading to @wonderville.nyc in a bit for playtest night! Bringing Rocket Dog and and a website thing I haven't talked about on here!
Hell yeah Visual Studio, just run the last version that didn't have errors. None of my new code was important.
Itch.io Summer Sale recommendation thread because I think it's a neat site and I like that it takes a smaller cut than Steam and you get the games DRM-free. Most of these will probably be adventure games since that's what I play the most! 🧵
