Ok so Adventure X was a treat yesterday, I’ll be better prepared next year to make the most of it. There’s legacy there stretching back to the Adventure Game Studio ezboard forums from the early 00’s and it’s wonderful to see it still thriving!
I’m on my way to Adventure X! I’ve taken a daft route that’s added 40 minutes to my journey!
Thinking of those old "I sentence you... TO LIFE" Limmy vines today.
When I was studying at University, Patrick Stewart had just been appointed chancellor. You'd see him walking about the campus, laughing and chatting with everyone. Pretty sure he made fun of a particularly bad shot I made while playing pool in the student union once.
Currently doing some ADHD assessment forms. Spent ages filling them out, carefully making sure that I'd done each field, made sure I'd clicked 'submit' on each, etc. Got an email today saying I needed to hurry up and fill the forms in, with a fresh set of links. Is... this part of the test?
"In Hull the phone boxes are white and fish and chips." I've found Last One Laughing like, 99% very easy not to laugh at (a better format is here watch Documental etc), but Reece Shearsmith doing his thing is making this worth a watch.
things that do not matter but upset me disproprotionately: no goddamned fucking videogame needs to be 200 gigs
Finally got an evening off to play some _video games_. Catching up with Resident Evil: Village. This guy Ethan is having a bad day, am I right?

Enjoying watching Ludwig, filmed in Cambridge, and pointing out how it makes absolutely no geographical sense to my wife. "That's the science park, not the police headquarters!" "That street isn't anywhere near that street!" "Oh look it's that pub."

one thing you learn from making a lot of things is that the nitty gritty details, the millions of tiny invisible decisions, ARE the art. The "higher level ideas" are not nearly as important or interesting
Freya Holmér@freya.bsky.social · last mo."AI lets you focus on the higher level ideas!!" because we all grew up dreaming of becoming managers and CEOs we all know the real artists at the very highest level are the shareholders, famously full of amazing ideas
Still thinking about this game many years on

* Evil Bill and Ted pulling their faces off to reveal robot heads (not sure why I was taken to see this when I was 6!) * The loading screen of a BBC Micro game called 'Citadel', which had a robot voice saying 'Citadel' on repeat. * Superman 3 when Lana gets pulled in to the computer. HORRIBLE.

I’m not sure I so much write music as discover it by bashing on some keys for a bit.
Watched the D&D Honour Among Thieves movie the other night, which was great fun and way more enjoyable than it really had any right to be. Realised this morning that one of the characters was literally called Simon The Sorcerer. I'm sure they knew what they were up to there.
Whenever I see anything about the AI 'Tilly Norwood' I can't help but think about the email chain they would have had to decide _that specific name_ and get the creeps, man
Starting to see machinedrum / monomachine vst emulations in the wild. I'm kinda glad of this as I'll be heartbroken the day my original Mk1 units die, or I can't source a power adapter. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kI5s...

I put on a random new episode of American Dad while eating dinner the other night. It was an episode about log flumes, with a reference to a ride that was at my local theme park The American Adventure in Derbyshire - Nightmare Niagra. Good to see its legend live on??
Dave has never released a game that isn’t outstanding in some way, and Nighthawks is something I’ve been looking forward to for years. Gerrit on yer wish lists!!
Dave Gilbert@wadjeteyegames.com · 2mo agoSo this day has been a roller coaster and a half. Thank you all for the amazing support. The issue isn’t solved yet, but we’re hopeful. In the meantime, please wishlist the game. We need all the extra help we can get now: store.steampowered.com/app/1221950/...
Might as well admit that "twee arthouse gibberish" is my brand and just lean in to it now.
