i am blown away by the amount of streamers with desktop explorer in their stream schedule i see everytime i shamelesly look up "desktop explorer" on here. i am so happy people find it fun to stream and figure out with chat! i've always said DE is really a co-op game in disguise.

it's no surprise to me that the game shaped up to be that way. i've been playing "single-player but kind of co-op" games all my life with my brother. sharing ideas, passing the controller around, it's just second nature. 2+ minds are better than 1.

we live in a world where doing what we want becomes harder and requires an increasing amount of effort every single day. now more than ever, caring about things feels extremely important. it is so easy not to care, to let the waves carry you out into the open ocean.

my body is tired but if i lose sight of the shore i will inevitably drown and that is not something i want. i will forever admire the artists fighting to keep the light on, relentlessly defending what makes us human.

yayy we've been wanting to be part of ludonarracon since we started working on desktop explorer!!!! what is life if it isn't games and stories?

so uhh if you're considering getting a kitten just keep in mind you're actually getting a velociraptor for the first 12 months of their life. afterwards i've herad reports of the ~creature~ just naturally transitioning into an actual cat. i have not personally experienced this yet but i am hopeful.

i wish the dead internet theory didn't feel as real as it does today. i mean, i wish it wasn't real at all! i was looking up stuff on ebay and all of the seller descriptions i could find were written with AI. might as well just not read them, they all say the exact same thing anyway.

Since a dev shared his game concept last month, Steam has been flooded with vibe-coded slop clones. This is what "democratising creativity" actually looks like. Even with AI, your ideas are worthless as long as they can be plagiarised at scale. Gen AI was designed for plagiarism, NOT creativity.

well worth it to be on the road for 21 days. extremely tired but full of feelings (good ones) after doing PAX West and fullindie in one swoop. i even gave a talk! who wouldโ€™ve thought! i wish i took more pictures.

i was finally able to play consume me. as soon as i started 2 days ago i couldn't put it down until credits rolled. when i saw it at gdc last year i knew it was special, but i was still left speechless at the unabashed, extreme self-expression and incredibly ingenious narrative.

extremely and deeply disappointed in the whole crazy taxi AI mess. whyyyy i've been waiting decades.. i love crazy taxi and still play it regularly to this day. its such a great game, incredible skill expression, so much potential.... WHYYYY!!!!

in case its not clear: i do not feel comfortable supporting gen AI made games, this comes across as a stupid cost saving / anti-artist measure and i am deeply sad because i love the franchise but cannot support this in any measure

i love
