We really should have gone to greater lengths to be loudly disgusted by anyone who acted like getting a shot or wearing a mask to prevent the spread of a pandemic virus was worse than being conscripted into the First World War

Daniel Fedor@dcfedor.bsky.social · 2w agoBlue Bottle Games, as a policy, does not use generative AI. It's something we've discussed as a team, weighing the pros and cons, and ultimately, we decided it was not for us. Recently, while chatting with a colleague, she mentioned it was useful hearing our reasoning. So: Sharing time! 1/12
hey are you doing okay? you keep briefly flashing red every few seconds and playing your hurt animation like you are poisoned

Girls only want one thing and its more shmups with Rayforce-like lock-on mechanics.
Are roguelikes indeed infinitely replayable? Let us plot the % of Steam reviews over the given playtime. Can you guess which #roguelike or #roguelite has the highest curve? Read this thread to find out, repost if you did not guess! Curves drawn until they depict <10 outliers. Data from January.
Hey folks, I wish I didn’t have to resort to this, but I need some help covering bills and meds because I’m pretty much without money until possibly late august. So, I set up a ko-fi goal that will cover my expenses. Any money towards will help, a LOT. Even if it is $1. ko-fi.com/lucasmoura

I'm one of the folks affected. *Many* on the list are gifted; their work was crucial to the weird little miracle that is ZP. Please, consider hiring them. Dust is still settling on my end, but my inbox is open.
