Here are the Lichen Labs events and arrangements for the next couple of months! Excited to be traveling along the East Coast a bit for these.
🎮 On Friday, Nov. 13 we'd like to invite you to talk about how you've used gaming (of any kind) to build community. Here's the form the library set up: forms.cloud.microsoft/Pages/Respon... 👾 Then, on Sat. we'll have our usual showcase of locally-made games. Show yours! forms.gle/1D6HUiPa45Dq...
We weren't joking: District Arcade is going to be bigger than ever this year... We've partnered with the DC Public Library, the Game Center at American University, and Labyrinth Games & Puzzles to create a day of workshops and talks about building community through gaming. See alt text and thread!

the challenge of art in the age of fascism is, to me, that escapism just feels like complicity. some people might disagree, but that's how i feel. on the other hand, it feels really important to provide some sort of new horizon or alternate vision of the future and not just comment on the present.
Consider @lichenlabs.bsky.social's Fleshwalk. Wish list on store.steampowered.com/app/4610010/... Steam has described Fleshwalk to me as, "This [...] doesn't look like other things you've played in the past." You don't know me, Steam. You don't know me. 😂 www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXw0...

please if people can share this around i would appreciate it. maybe if it gets enough support it will get Steam to take harassment seriously. if anyone can help 🙏 idk what to do because this means if i have my games on Steam, Steam will not do anything about harassment.
the Steam team responded to my support request and said they will not remove the review calling me a liar and ridiculing my sexual assault because of censorship concerns. steamcommunity.com/profiles/765... if Steam refuses to enforce their community guidelines and allows harassment, what can i do?
