ended up on an extremely weird site while trying to look up some basic information a couple of weeks ago and it sent me down a deep rabbit hole www.eurogamer.net/ai-fan-wikis...

Happy 5th anniversary for Inscryption - one of my fave games in recent memory. Wanted to tshare two related stories I wrote earlier this year. Firstly, I spoke to Daniel Mullins and Jonah Senzel about its music for @designroom.site: www.designroom.site/inscryption-...
The second is an interview with the designer of the ultra bespoke Inscryption board game, for @rascal.news www.rascal.news/inscryptions...

Umurangi Generation captured the collective angst of successive generations inheriting a broken world prepared for them like a shit sandwich. Here's my story for Remap about the developer's follow-up, Penguin Colony https://remapradio.com/articles/penguin-colony-wants-the-world-to-open-its-eyes/

I’ve attempted to report on the Freeplay Parallels 2026 situation as comprehensively as I can at this point in time, over one week later. I’ve received comments from the Melbourne International Games Week organising team on the matter, and Wren has also provided some new remarks.
Australian indie game community organisation Freeplay has been accused of discrimination following the removal of a sponsor hours before its annual showcase event. The organisers of Melbourne International Games Week, which it was part of, have called it "a clear breach" of its code of conduct.

600 words is nowhere near enough for the audacious, frequently brilliant Penguin Colony. But I hope there's enough here to pique your interest: brave the howling Antarctic, I say, and bear witness to spectacular cosmic horror — & Nazis eating one another alive. www.theguardian.com/games/2026/o...
For @jank.cool, I wrote about how Penguin Colony employs the proximity and distance of horror in a truly exceptional manner www.jank.cool/penguin-colo...
Anyway thank you @brendyc.bsky.social for letting me write for your super cool site!

I know, I know. The Repository might sound too good to be true, but I promise you it's EXTREMELY REAL! Free (downloadable) pitch decks and design docs submitted by some of the best to ever do it!
Some folks asked if the docs on the repository at @verticalslicenews.bsky.social were legit. Yes indeed! Read em and weep! Er, I mean, learn. Yeah. More to come, maybe! Probably! www.verticalslice.news/tag/reposito... (If you're waiting for An Announcement, it's coming soon, ~4 more hours..)

I'm not upping the goal, but I am throwing the GFM link back out. At this point, I just don't know what to do. I really don't. Note that in all of this, I have not touched the KS money sitting in the bank and I will NOT do so. www.gofundme.com/f/chip-in-to...

Many men rape; many men giggle encouragingly, or shrug indifferently, when their friends rape. Many men rape, and few seem to think that it’s a very big deal, writes columnist Moira Donegan

Get good? Fuck that, I want to walk through walls and bathe myself in the blood of my enemies. If you want me to get good, you have to pay me.

In recent years, the media has quietly begun to change the way in which it writes about Bobby Kotick, the former CEO of Activision Blizzard. PMG investigates how Kotick used the threat of defamation to reshape his legacy in the games business, one article at a time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKwp...

Nurse Hammam and his brother need our help to survive the genocide in Gaza. He braves the horrors of the war daily to keep Gazans alive, and the helpers of the people of Palestine need help too. Help his brother afford his seizure medication and help them afford food and shelter.
Hammam is a volunteer humanitarian nurse treating Gaza's wounded since the war began. He needs our help: his family is starving & homeless, and his brother is disabled & suffers from severe seizures. Any donation -even small ones- can help get food & medical care. chuffed.org/project/1844...
