I had a really long and nice chat with @sarahathwaites.bsky.social about TANUKI! Always an utter privilege and kick to have work be covered by a national newspaper back home 😊 (Also @jacobwmills.bsky.social namedropped)

I absolutely cannot fathom how much Japanese banks are just the worst. Need a normal bank statement of your account? Just to prove it’s yours and the total in it? Oh wait 1 hour. Fill out two forms. Pay $20. Wait 1 week for it to be sent to your apartment 😤

The new MGK song JJK is so fucking bad, it's just him listing characters from the most basic ass anime he has watched. It's truly terrible and finally is something worse than Jaden Smith's - Goku. Worst of all is he's bringing down poor Yuki Chiba with him 🥲

In October last year I was fired by Rockstar Games in what we believe was a union busting move. We lost our home. We lost 2 jobs with my partner being forced to resign. We lost a community. Most importantly however we had to leave our two dogs behind, one of which will never return.

Back in October, Rockstar Games fired 34 employees for alleged gross misconduct. The severity of these firings could have spelled the end for a burgeoning union effort that was underway, but it didn't. In fact, the union is now *bigger* than it's ever been before. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym4z...

I wish one of the lessons our industry (the financial side) would learn - you don’t get a Hades without years ago a Bastion. It’s apt at this point in time while layoffs & losses of knowledge across the board are being made on the whims of performances/short term judgements of a single release.

On this day 15 years ago, we launched our first game, Bastion. To everyone who helped the Kid survive the Calamity, thank you!!🙏 You're the reason we've been able to carry on as an independent studio ever since.

Proper story's supposed to start at the beginning. Ain't so simple with this one.

Slightly spicy take: It makes me sad to even see this occasionally from fellow peers in industry, who also just assume by being in games/playing games is somehow a pass where ”you know game design”. Like it’s just something we all inherit by being in the games industry.

Game design and fiction writing are, for whatever reason, two jobs that most people think they could do instantly at a high standard, with zero experience or evidence. I don’t know if it was a smart idea to focus on both as a profession. Certainly an occasionally frustrating idea.

Went fishing today (2nd time since starting again after 15 years), got the fishing pond’s second biggest catch of the day - a 49cm Takashima Salmon. Safe to say, the greatest achievement of my life 👍
