There's something so pure and cringe-free about the angsty scribbled writing they put all over this

This is a grotesque framing, a poorly-constructed journalistic article, and just cartoonishly error-riddled. Valnet sucks so much dude.

"wow, everyone knew this already" is such a cynical, annoying and unfortunately extremely common response to tech news. assuming your privacy is being violated and proving that it is are two very different things, and the latter is the result of hard work and rigorous reporting

Douglas Wilson@doougle.net · 2mo agoIn prep for our Imbroglio episode on TSLOG, I spent a while re-reading all of @smestorp.bsky.social's old blog posts. Legit some of the best, most useful writing ever done about making videogames. Check out this nugget from May 2016, sooo good mightyvision.blogspot.com/2016/05/imbr...
I am so close to finishing the game I've been working on for 2+ years. I am very tired 😌
The Dig (LucasArts, 1995) is still of my fav space adventure game. Pixel art made it look outdated during the rise of 3D graphics, but now it makes it timeless.
Alex Kanaris-Sotiriou@kanaratron.bsky.social · 2mo agoCredits rolled on The Dig! Lots to like there.
I think I would do okay in the Silksong world, assuming I stayed human-sized
Nina Marotta ☢️💙@mrschief7.bsky.social · 3mo agoYou're offered $250,000,000 but to claim it you must enter the last video game you've played and stay there for a full year. How are y'all faring in this deal?
I reached the end of Beast Breaker. I'm gonna miss this game. I wish there was a way to replay the final boss to beat it with every weapon for the achievements, or at least, that the post game enemies still count towards the relevant achievements, but other than that, I really loved this game!!
