ZigZag FM is a great throwback to early internet experiments. You discover music by sailing across a map organized by genre, year, country..etc. It's the kind of playfulness big (streaming) platforms don't try. Lots of gems here, and the map makes for nice transitions. I have invite codes to spare!

No science fiction could have prepared us for just how stupid the end of the world can be. "The environment was on the brink of collapse, and so, rather than deal with that, we burned what fuel we had left getting computers to scam each other for money."

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

Credits for Brent Porter (3D art lead) and Catherine Menabde (2D art lead) are shown here. There's a lengthy description of what they did, with a  pastiche of various Demonschool characters underneath, messing around with a computer.

If you get a baby, learn the Dunstan Baby Language, which is a science-based approach that helps you understand what your baby needs much more quickly. I am flabbergasted that this is not the first advice you get from midwives, doctors, or friends. It is not as well-known as it should be. [1/2]
