If a team makes a game that gets great reviews and doesn't sell, that's a biz failing but the silver lining is you caught lighting in a bottle -- protect that team! It's worth its weight in gold. If you jettison the team but keep the biz people, I don't know what to tell you

SHIVERS – The city is already speaking. Rooftops answer. It has happened before it arrives. INTERFACING – Production Schedule filament inserted. Alignment accepted. PRINT. ELECTROCHEMISTRY – Yes. INTERFACING – Connection complete. Sept 2026

I swear, every time I open this app I just hear about the new way that the video games industry is imploding. And that’s supposed to be my fun news I look at to avoid the really bad news

Another year, another PAX, another reminder that wishlisting video games actually makes a tangible difference to developers, particularly smaller independent teams. It helps them get the exposure and funding to make their aspirations a reality. So Wishlist cool games!!!

Thanks to Dan for having me on again, this time to talk Sword of the Sea! Is there like a 10-timer club? Do I get a jacket next time?

New episode out now! @lesperak.bsky.social (from @leftbehindgameclub.bsky.social) makes her 9th appearance on the show to talk about Sword of the Sea. This is the third time Katie and I have talked about a Giant Squid game on the show Check out our thoughts below open.spotify.com/episode/00Ns...

Fancy executives killing Blizzcon back in the day because the event itself “doesn’t make a lot of money” is the most blatant example of corporate dumbassery. (Play Nice by Jason Shreier is a good read)
