Flame Con@flamecon.bsky.social · 2w agoTen days until @flamecon.bsky.social!! 🔥🏳️🌈 I’ll be hanging around the Gaymer Lounge all weekend, come say hi and play some games!
we've been getting really nice comments (and good critique!) on our #gmtkjam game! this was a writing challenge for me, thematically and mechanically, and there was a moment where i thought i wasn't going to pull it off 😰 so having ppl respond positively is v validating (and a bit overwhelming!)

our team for the #gmtk jam really knocked it out of the park! i'm so glad to have had the chance to work w artists, programmers and musicians who could pull this kind of atmosphere together in <96 hours.

I am surrounded by freakishly talented ppl, what do you mean you made this in a day???
Stephen Rubino@shrubino.bsky.social · 2w agoGot my #GMTK basic prototype up and running, now working on scaling up the Rube-Goldberg-ing
ENnie voting is open and my friend's tabletop music app Pocket Bard @pocketbard.bsky.social is nominated for Best Digital Accessory! I tried the app out in the fall and it went like this: "It would be great if--" "Here's the button for that!" "OK, but can it--?" "Yup, it's built in!"
“Xbox CEO Asha Sharma started the day with a note that the business is "not healthy," that the cuts are necessary to course correct after big bets on ‘Game Pass, multi-platform, and a broader portfolio of content,’ failed to pan out” Why does SHE still have a job when the company is failing so bad?

“Team of historians” 🤩 I really gotta clear my schedule and play this game
Cat Manning@catacalypto.bsky.social · last mo.This week on Civ VII my team of historians took some time to do an AMA of player questions this week! They had a lot of fun answering; you can check out the Reddit link to the full AMA on Steam here
Sorry to everyone who doesn’t live in New York, I know we’re already insufferable abt being the center of the universe, but honestly it’s awesome being a nyer right now
Had a little extra time w my tutoring client today so I taught her abt Roman numerals (I-XII) ::high five:: “hey, you learned a new thing!!” Super satisfying, presumably for both of us
may tadc be for young trans women what ofmd was to late blooming trans men 🌈💜
Doll King Eclipse@eclipse.gay · last mo.if the kids learn anything from TADC, I hope it's... 1. You can just fucking transition. Just do it, bitch. 2. Sometimes people are extremely unpleasant and push everyone away and then they kill themselves because they live in a world that is cold & confusing to them. Especially young trans women.
its really impressive to see the impact that @samsorensen.bsky.social's bonkers game has had on its players as they go off and recreate/iterate on the experience...for better or worse lol sounds like i missed a really intense game!
