A discussion on A Mortician's Tale on @crateandcrowbar.bsky.social was huge moment for me on my journey into game dev. I never knew there were games like that, & I'd never heard anyone talk about games quite like @philippawarr.bsky.social did - and still does! Loved this chat.

New Kaleidoscope ep! Pip Warr (Little Kitty, Big City, A Monster's Expedition) joins us for a fun chat about localisation. Can digging into your script in immense detail make you a better writer -- or will it drive you mad? www.inklestudios.com/kaleidoscope...

"The maverick trillionaire pondered this. Could it be possible? Was he somehow...disliked? Did somewhere a person exist who doubted his genius? No. It could not be. He crafted his riposte & launched it with deadly accuracy. "I know you are", he replied archly. But what am *I*?" A masterful gambit."

By the end of the interview Musk insists that more people like him than hate him. "They hate YOU," Musk tells the interviewer. "They hate YOU far more than they hate me."

GOLD TEETH has launched! It's a piratical TTRPG set in a cursed version of the Age of Sail, with 350 pages of briny phantasmagoria, colonial terror and nauseating seafood. It's part Master & Commander, part Blackadder, left to ripen in the sun like a beached porpoise. teethrpg.itch.io/gold-teeth

007 First Light is an absolute triumph of storytelling, the kind of franchise launching knockout that most studios across kinds of media can only dream of, and it will be a terrible shame if IO Interactive don't get to make a bunch more of them.

At this point, its not so much a question of 'beating' the heat, it's more about following it into hell & installing an antimatter singularity into its nest to expunge it from this & all other possible points in space & time simultaneously to usher in an eternity of lifeless thermodynamic neutrality
