kinda insane how Spider-Man: Brand New Day only just came out, and everyone's already posting clips to go w their commentaries and memes. the cinema-going experience is no longer sacred when people can whip out their phones and talk over the film like they are in their own homes

The last time I played Gunfire Reborn was 2020, so I was pretty curious to see how far the game has come since then. What I found was a highly polished roguelike with Borderlands-style gun loot, fun buildcrafting, tons of unique heroes to play, and good difficulty challenge.

I'm making a cosy tavern sim-survival game called From Thirst till Dawn. Each individual patron has an emoji over their head so players can make split-second decisions on who to prioritize serving, and patrons leave the tavern if not served by the end. 🙂>🥶>😡>🤢

Just started Schrödinger's Call. Am blown away by the incredible combination of music, visuals and writing from the very start of the game, that overwhelms you with emotion. This is a very special experience that I'm excited to see it all the way through.

The Human Vapor was a fun watch, a pacey thriller with a great mystery that unravels over episodes. Yu Aoi gives a magnetic performance and the horror bits are cool. And it’s written by the Train to Busan director! Highly recommended.

1 day ago, I released the #GMTK2026 version of From Thirst till Dawn - an action survival game about serving drinks and killing skeletons in a tavern. Thanks to positive feedback, I've been working on expanding the game. Starting with a per-NPC thirst tracker using emojis🍺

Straight after the #GMTK2026 jam was done, I started to sketch out what an expanded version of From Thirst till Dawn would look like, incl. testing a more sophisticated per-patron thirst meter, but this might get messy really quickly

checking out DragonSword: Awakening. an open world RPG game, with the gacha live-service ripped out for a completely singleplayer experience. what a novel concept LOL. it has all the trappings of a gacha game including the grindiness and waifus but none of the monetization

If I see a genAI slop thumbnail for your YouTube video, I won’t watch it. If I see a genAI slop picture or text in your blogpost, I won’t read it. If I see a vibe coded game, I won’t play it. I like human created stuff. Imperfections are good. They are personal. They are art.

It's always One Man against the world in Nolan's worldview. And always about women as companions to the Man's absolute pursuit, never about their own agency. He's like Haruki Murakami in that way. I become less of a fan as the years pass, despite how entertaining his films are.

Are you a cat? Have you been forced to wait three to five minutes for dinner? YOU MAY BE ENTITLED TO COMPENSATION. Call 1-800-FEED-MEE. Operators are standing by.

My cat, who is unemployed and refuses to vote, is unhappy with his fancy new cat food and l, a walking talking miracle capable of reason, art, science, and philosophy, am on my way back to the store to rectify the matter immediately for some reason
