www.coltcoeur.org/camping My sister wrote a play called Camping which I went to see in NYC last month. It wrecked me, not just because it confirmed I’m the least talented sibling. If you’re in New York and want to greet, go and see it.

I’m a huge fan of commentary tracks. Love hearing @rafcolantonio.bsky.social and @harvey1966.bsky.social talk about one of my favorite games. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the playthrough! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVq0...

sometimes I look at dishonored screenshots and go fuuuuck it's so good. fuck. I'll never forgive the gamers for not buying billions of copies of all the dishonored games
Real conversation at work: “Is it Ball Ex Pit?” “Could be Ball Times Pit also” “Would be funny if it’s actually Ball Cross Pit” “…I just call it Ball Pit”

The Bear: Let's make one of the most stressful episodes on TV! The Pitt: Hold my beer.
Luca Marinelli’s performance in Death Stranding 2 is SO GOOD. That last scene with him is insane. It’s rare to see that kind of emotion coming through with in engine characters. Kojima Productions outdid themselves!

It’s always been a curiosity with how complex the weaving of timelines is in TLOU2, what if there was an option, similar to that one DVD menu option in Christopher Nolan’s MEMENTO, to play the events of TLOU2 in strictly chronological order?

Those last two episodes of The Bear were weirdly cathartic. I’d be fine if the show ends there. So good. Kind of reminds me of the end of one of my other favorite shows: Mad Men. “Leave the characters in a better place than they were” was their approach to wrapping it up. Feels appropriate.
new blog post: turned my gdc 2025 level design theory talk into a blog post www.blog.radiator.debacle.us/2025/05/spac...
Space is not a wall: toward a less architectural level design
Maybe video game level design theory needs less focus on architecture? And maybe I'm part of the problem? My bad.
