Woke up and saw my city managed to not vote in the person who makes Poilievre look reasonable. Phew! Though he did get second place (34%)...

Remember to go vote today, Ontario! I sure wish I could, but I've been waiting for over 2 months now to be scheduled for my Citizenship Oath...

Looking for an ai-free, lovingly hand-made gem of a demo during Steam Next Fest? Tearoom of Terror is a cozy horror game where you make tea & treat for the requests of the townsfolk of Goreytown, while trying to solve a murder. Free now on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4586560/...

store.steampowered.comTearoom of Terror Demo on SteamCongratulations on your inheritance: one tearoom, one murdered aunt, 13 regulars who know where the *ahem* bodies are buried. Brew tea, bake treats and try not to end up on the menu before Halloween. ...

So... why are the sunglasses genderlocked?

A test of your (typing) reflexes! Keybound Brawler will be landing in the Manderville Gold Saucer on October 28, and the first iteration of the event will be a special collaboration with the FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE series! ⌨️ sqex.to/WVAnl

Next Fest was already a bit of a pointless exercise for 90% of devs. Now the AI slop has made it entirely pointless for 99% of devs I don’t really know what Valve can do about this, but I think it’s fair to say that we pay them well enough, that it would be nice if they’d bloody do *something*

What are AAA gameplay concepts you'd like to see adapted by indies? www.resetera.com/threads/16...

Maybe I'm naive, but I hope this shit derailing nextfest gets Valve to go scorched earth on folks using AI to steal game concepts. Literally all it would take to nip it in the bud.

dude it's miserable how quickly the Next Fest went from a thing that was fun and exciting to explore to feeling like trudging through sewage for a single shiny penny.

GOOD NEWS! we're keeping the Bad Magpie demo up! although LudoNarraCon, Unmistakable Festival and Birds of Play have ended, we're going to keep the demo up on Steam and XBOX on PC as you've all been enjoying playing so much so go tell your friends, magpie chaos remains

Goddammit it's a miserable process going through the 8000-ish demos in Next Fest (starts later today) and seeing the overwhelming use of AI in so many games. I recommend this browser plugin for making it easier to spot - github.com/seeeeew/aiwa... - but Valve REALLY needs to make it a required tag.

Don't let billionaires convince you slop is the future. They're used to managing & directing, not making things themselves. Of course they can't see the difference. They don't understand your love for the craft. Keep making personal, beautiful games. You've got my support 💖
