10 years ago today, my fan game Pokémon Uranium released its full v1.0 to the public. It became a viral success that's still enjoyed by thousands of players all around the world. To everyone whose travels brought them to the Tandor region, thank you, and here's to many more years of adventuring! ☢️

Kotaku parading that garbage "recompilation" Generation 1 Pokémon project is genuinely upsetting. I was hoping the communities would reject vibe coded garbage, but these people are now intentionally hiding the usage and even lying that it's hand-written to peddle their slop onto others.

the secret sauce that makes Deltarune so great, ascending past Undertale in certain respects even, is the fact that it’s teens. Like the fact that its main characters are teenagers makes the emotional highs and lows that much punchier.
