40/m/uk he/him I just wanna make videogames and music, and a better world for my kids, but I'm so tired. Trans rights are human rights. Fuck capitalism and fuck AI.
My youngest son is constantly role-playing and, when possible, cosplaying. He picks a character and chooses colour and style appropriate clothes from his wardrobe. Today he wants to take a cuddly toy with him to holiday club. So he decided Lulu from FFX would be a good character choice 👍
Just checked with everyone you know and no one is mad at you
#PromoSky Hi I'm Ziggy. A 36 yo currently playing Majora’s Mask on my 3DS. My TL is mainly gaming, gameplay and stream highlights with a bit of yapping in between. I do love a yap🤣 I love: Gaming 👾 Streaming 🟪 Reading 📚 My Bruno Bear 🐻 A good brew ☕️ Gardening 🪴 The Simpsons 🍩 🩵 & 🔄 appreciated.
Now this is a welcome surprise! Almost finished playing through all the Monkey Islands with the kids. Thimbleweed 1 was so great in nostalgia ways, meta ways, just normal ways, and fascinating ways thanks to the insightful dev blog from Ron and team. Can't wait!
We have good news and bad news! The good news is that we just started production on Thimbleweed Park 2, due out in early 2028. store.steampowered.com/app/4932120/... Now the bad news... there is no bad news, it’s all good news! P.S. Thimbleweed Park 1 is on sale on Steam, Switch, iOS and Google.

Name physical media you purchased more than once.
Oh god, oh no, I just paid for a new kitchen! Was kinda hoping this email would come after payday 😅
My kids each opening a present just now. Eldest: I'm opening it as neatly as I can Youngest: I'm opening it as chaotically as I can! Yeah, that pretty much sums them up

Newer games are not boxed up 👍
A lot of my older physical games are in the attic at the mo, but I came across a couple of classics while I was up there earlier

My eldest is playing mario kart by himself, but is narrating it like he's streaming 😂
Doing #FinalFantasy V #FourJobFiesta Iron Claw went well... TBF it's only that bad cos I wanted to learn Death Claw, and (I think?) it has to be used on the actual Blue Mage, and he targeted everyone else first 😐 TIL the Blue Mage can still Learn when dead at the end of the battle 😅
Probably mostly accurate video game firsts for me. - First video game will definitely have been something on the C64 - I played many computer games before I owned a console - Also started playing Warcraft III custom games online around the same time as SOF2 and Valve games (Ricochet anyone?)
Important labelling on bits of the kitchen ready for ripping out on Thursday
We're getting our kitchen done. Found this while packing stuff up
Gosh, I wish there were a way in 2026 to play Tomb Raider 1 at a high resolution with modern controls and optionally enhanced graphics or alternative puzzles and mechanics. Shame we'll be forced to wait for next year's "We used GenAI for inspiration" remake, no other choice.
Biggest first world problem gripe with First Light is the similar actions to Hitman WOA bound to different controls 😅
Games #FirstLight makes me think of (in a good way): Hitman WOA Hitman Absolution Splinter Cell Tomb Raider (Crystal Dynamics style) Deus Ex (mainly Mankind Divided) Really enjoying it, even if I suck at the combat set-piece bits 🤷♂️
