I just bought my second Switch 2 game of the year. Orbitals. With my own money. Will be reviewing it for the October issue of @debugmag.com with a special focus on the art direction. It looks amazing! One of the huge benefits of print media is the ability to show off high quality visuals 🥰
“What do you mean the trains from gamescom to Düsseldorf aren’t running?” - Nick
I’ve just seen that someone who’s game I quite liked has blocked us because we didn’t cover it… yet… We were going to, when the time was right 😭
Another fantastic reason to grab a physical copy of @debugmag.com #16 Featuring art by @jokov.bsky.social
We finally did a Bisexual Lighting issue of @debugmag.com - Apparently that’s a thing. I’m ok with it.
We were half way through doing a story about a game, and the entire team have just been laid off. I wish I could say this was an uncommon situation, but it’s happened a few times lately!
So, that emergency alert… I can’t help but wonder if it outed any vulnerable folks’ hidden phones. Given how it ignores volume / silent mode.
Does anyone know who took photos for the features in early EDGE issues? Presumably it was multiple people, but they were never credited back then.
This BBC article was nice to wake up to this morning! All photos were taken at our recent Indie Showcase (part of NottsVGE) in Nottingham, and @debugmag.com events manager Alex Hunt is quoted about the importance of championing indies. I truly love that we can continue to host these showcases 🥰

Looking for starter kits, lists, or straight up recommendations for video games PR folks. We recently went monthly with @debugmag.com and I want to cover as many great games as possible. All regions and languages considered!
No, I don’t want literally everything to be hot honey actually
Even though it can be tiring, I am so grateful that I am able to travel around the world with my brother Nick, talking to game developers about their work for @debugmag.com There aren’t many people who can claim such fulfilment in their work, and I don’t take it for granted! Next month: Germany
I truly feel it’s time for disruption, and I’d like to be disruptive with you
We made a Limited Edition “Liquid Debug” magazine to celebrate our 3rd birthday There were a total of 50 produced, they’re individually numbered, and every penny goes towards our free indie game showcases Here’s the details: teamdebug.com/issue/15se
You know how Develop:Brighton is a big conference with a small showcase… What if you, ya know, flipped that around? That could be interesting to see
I don’t want to get too ahead of myself, but the cover of Debug #17 is quite possibly the coolest thing ever 🤩 I’m super excited about what we’ve got planned over the next twelve months!
If you’re in Brighton for Develop, do not let yourself miss BITs!

Join us all at the Leonardo Royal Hotel Brighton Waterfront, 4pm-8pm Wednesday 15th July. Tickets available on the door only, with limited capacity, £4 entry.
I would absolutely love to follow a game from the ideas and prototyping stage, straight through to release and even post-release in real time. Definitely something which @debugmag.com could do!
It’s a really unique form of sadness when someone who made something you really enjoyed as a kid turns out to be a terrible person
Preparing some arcade games for a thing. Only real hardware allowed!
