Milwaukee Brewers master uniform lettering, 1993. This was the last design job I did via traditional methods, just as digital technology was beginning to really take hold. Hand drawn on tracing paper w/ pencil, I then inked the final art on vellum. I'll be posting more from the rebrand along the way

But playing a great game DOES feel like the dev magically targeted you, perfectly, sight unseen. It is the power of art to make us feel seen and understood and less alone. Nailing difficulty and accessibility is part of that. I also feel most games are way too hard and all games should be easier.
the idea of games with a single difficulty level is so weird. it just doesn't make sense. how are devs supposed to magically target you, perfectly, sight unseen? people have all kinds of individual strengths and habits and weaknesses and accessibility needs? that's just not how it works.

Collections of studios owned and run by Black People. I'm sure there are some I missed, so please let me know (please double-check that they are owned by black people), and I will add them. Don't just follow them; check out their games. This list is about equity and ownership. go.bsky.app/4wfgP11

This is dumb. He should get on Bluesky. My feed is chock full of people oozing with creativity pushing games in cool new directions. So often The Games Industry feels broken and hopeless but it's only because they are blind to the future and another amazing next wave of game designers
this was the awards show equivalent to “I want shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less and I'm not kidding" and it dying because there weren’t enough creative people followed by an ominous speech by one of the greats should be a canary in a coal mine situation

This is cognitive class warfare. Technofascists like Thiel are raising a new, traditionally educated ruling class while shoving addictive apps, thought-terminating AI, and gambling down everyone else’s throats. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/18/t...
Hugely influential game. All your favorite indie platformer game designers played Seiklus and took something away from it. Way ahead of its time in 2003
Finally ID'd the memory of one of my favorite freeware Game Maker games from back in the day, a platformer exploration game called Seiklus by cly5m! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seiklus
