Had a lovely chat with Florent from @thepixelhunt.bsky.social about political art and climate change

New encounter on the road to Ithaca, this time with 1/2 of the ream behind @strawboie.bsky.social, i.e Boie Thomsen. We got to discuss engagement in art, pressing issues and what it means to create with empathy in mind. Wishlist Children of Saturn here: store.steampowered.com/app/3105190/...

During Earth Appreciation Festival we will be streaming footage of actual forest fires on our Steam page as a reminder that climate change hasn't gone anywhere and we should be more angry at the corporations and people in power who keep causing all that damage. store.steampowered.com/app/3105190/...

There are many ways to approach this one and way too many notable picks, but here are my 9 games, sorted from childhood to being a young adult. Each entry had a big impact on me in various stages of my life. Spooky with a spoonful of whimsy~

I told myself if I ever got a staff job, I would use that power to put a focus on under-the-radar games. I feel like I did that. Faceminer, The Posthumous Investigation, Children of Saturn, Captain Blood — games that wouldn’t be on Polygon had I not written about them. Trust me, I know that.
