Trump is directing his Sec of War to send troops, using full force, into a US city, to fight a siege he made up, being fought by a group that doesn’t exist. He’s declaring war on Americans exercising their 1st amendment rights to speak out and protest his attacks on democracy.

I knew immediately that @danga.games He Who Watches was gonna be heat, and playing the Next Fest demo, I was right. But I got lucky in coming up on @ballxpit.bsky.social a roguelike block breaker that blew my mind. I highlight them both here. www.vice.com/en/article/m...

Rick Lane from PCGamer wrote about He Who Watches! Very cool. Working on the game alone has made it really hard to know if people will enjoy and understand the game, so seeing it click with people this weekend has been amazing. www.pcgamer.com/games/puzzle...

This gravity-defying dungeon crawler is basically Legend of Grimrock meets Portal, and while the trailer had me dizzy, the demo made me feel like a genius
