Maybe I'll check out Call of Duty this year! * Won't install on Steam Machine. * Won't let me create Activision account. * Does not support family sharing. * Requires Xbox Live to play multiplayer. * Website suggests that Xbox, Xbox PC and Battle.net are different. The *friction* for this game...

Looking to test out new apps for your brand new iPhone Duo? Crossy Road and Crossy Road Castle have full support. And I managed to squeeze in an update for Little Things and Little Things Forever last weekend! Thank you to Apple for highlighting these. apps.apple.com/au/story/id6...

I installed SteamOS on a Retroid Pocket Nova. An inexpensive Steam Deck running on ARM has a real chance to shake up how the rest of the world buys and plays games.

Well, it finally happened! After 9 years of Unity dominance, Godot was the most used game engine for GMTK Game Jam 2026 submissions. 🤖 Godot - 47% 🎮 Unity - 34% 🛠️GameMaker - 5% 🚀 Unreal Engine - 3% ✨ Other - 11%

That's incredibly sad. I discovered John Blanche through his incredible unforgettable work on the Sorcery FF series. When I do draw (which is rarely) I still can't help but channel his twisted visions. What a legacy.

RIP to John Blanche, the best to ever do it. Before Warhammer was even Warhammer he understood what it was: weird, gross, unsettling, maximalist.

The only way I'll ever feel comfortable asking an AI assistant for help is if it happens entirely on my device. I don't want to worry about burning down a forest or polluting a river each time I ask it to add milk to the shopping list.

I bought a Samsung S26 last month. Using it has been the most miserable tech experience I've had for a decade. Google and Samsung are actively at war fighting over assistants, wallets and shopping lists. Each is actively sabotaging the other. I tried and failed. Bring on the Steam phone.

The Steam launch of Little Things has been a little frustrating. 500 wishlists with a 30% conversion is excellent!! But so far I've only had ONE review. 🦉 Little Things needs TEN reviews to get unburied. Did you play it this week? I'd love a review from you if you can spare the time.

Great news for our rights! You shouldn't have to brave pepper spray (which I've sadly learned from experience really hurts), physical assault or intimidation from our police force just for wanting to peacefully protest something you believe in.

📢 A judge in NSW's top court has struck down the state's laws regarding restrictions on protests.

With 17 year hindsight I realised that the "sneaker" stage was too difficult have for first time users. Problem was I now needed to do a sneaker jigsaw puzzle. So this is the first Little Things art I've done for MANY years!

as an indie game dev, you can do whatever you want — including giving access to your game’s source code to Godot engine contributors so they can use the project as a testbed for cool new features 😎😎😎😎 #godotengine

Today was "run the game on every device I have in the house" day. The game is 99% complete! Just have to create trailers for both games, 4 aspect ratios and 20 languages. Good news is I have a script for that. Also Steam hidden object fest is on April 10? Yikes that'll be tight. #godot

Skylanders (and specifically Swap Force) felt like video game magic. 15 years later, I'm still nostalgic for those little pieces of plastic. I wish that Activision had treated the franchise with more care.
