STEBAN, THE STUDENT COMMUNIST - “In dark times, should the stars also go out?”
my favourite detail of this character is the disparity between her little portrait image and her in-game sprite. it made me think that she's been doing this for like 10 years now and never bothered to update her iconography.
Too many people in this space ultimately only care about their ability to play games. Their entire ideology is based on the premise that games are some right accorded to them. When that's your most core belief, nothing serious can be built on top of it.
I’ve seen peers completely ignore BDS while championing the “power of the PlayStation Boycott” in the same breath recently. Frankly, I’ve just so little respect for these people. Why is it a race to be the most unserious person imaginable lately?
accidentally made trans art and had to commit to the bit

PASSENGER x PRINCESS, my sick bastard yuri-road-trip-suicide-pact visual novel, is now available on Steam. This repugnant, short visual novel combines "mental illness" and "sex" and the results are absolutely horrible. Play it immediately: store.steampowered.com/app/4232760/...
GREG DAVIES: seems like a kind of a shit task. Everyone just seems like they're going home normally. ALEX HORNE: well before you say that let's have a look at how Odysseus did. cut to panel of AJAX, MENELAUS, AGAMEMNON, and DIOMEDES who are all staring at ODYSSEUS with his head in his hands
An island like Perdition's Cage, with a drowned Leviathan providing a gateway straight to Hell, is of interest not merely to the Inquisition but also to all those looking to display their wealth - few can claim they possess the scales of a Hellbeast, after all. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/w... #OSR
Special guest Isabelle (@inkmothnexus.bsky.social) returns to Gamesline to write about the downsides of trudging through games out of obligation, and the benefits of slowly and deliberately experiencing mundane games like Seabed and Boku no Natsuyasumi 2!
Games About Nothing Mean Everything to Me — by Isabelle
In my fervor to make my time spent living and breathing mean something, to pull feelings out of art and chew on them for longer, I have played and loved and hated quite a few titles by now. My poor, poor screenshots folder is now absolutely packed with things I wanted to keep with me. In an effort to better understand my habits, and learn to mediate with these feelings I hold, I find myself now writing a few words about a few games that, to me, did something that mattered, that stuck with me, for better or for worse.
