Proud to announce our HARDSHIP FUND: uvw-cwa.org/hardship-fun... If you've been recently laid off and need support, we got you.
Right now the world is full of people who want to code and write and paint and film stuff and people who want to play and read and look at and watch stuff and nobody is allowed to do any of that because some unrelated third guy isn't making enough money off the deal
Our games industry is people. Our studios are people. Our teams people, our games by people for people. Our games are made by people, in groups of people, in teams of people, making people things for people. The magic is people, and the people deserve so much better than all this. I am so sorry.

Picard morality tip: If one side of a conflict preaches purity of bloodline above communal benefit for all, join the other side.
I'll be in Toronto at the end of next week for @torontogamesweek.com showing some new experimental games! Let me know if you want to hang out, I will have a bunch of free time 👋🍵🍹🎲

So... I was just laid off from Epic Games along with 1000 other people! BUT... since I was already planning to quit in April, this is a pretty great outcome for me. Now I can go back to making my own indie games with severance pay and health insurance 🎉 Blog post with more details coming soon.

One of the things I find frustrating about sci-fi is that because of the American influence of it, all of the planets are called things like Zexion 5 and Danshassia 7. I’d call them things like ‘Nether Roundthorpe’ and ‘Spheresbury’. Gravity Bywell. Chalfont St Globeby. Bishop’s Goitre.

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...
omg the talk/speaker lineup for Roguelike Celebration (@roguelike.club) 2025 looks sooo good: www.roguelike.club/event2025.html So obviously one of the most vital events in videogames right now, I really hope I can make the time to attend this year.

When we throw up our hands and say none of it matters, we're doing the fascists’ work for them. They don't need to hide their corruption if they can convince us it's pointless to look. They don't need to silence truth-tellers if we've already decided truth is meaningless.

After a long hiatus I tried to get Spaceteam on Android working again on newer phones but I wasn't able to do a lot of testing and it looks like I broke some stuff. Sorry! I'll try to fix it, thanks for your patience ❤️
