So glad Absolum is bringing back the Halo days of giving you wee guys you feel obligated to look after and get as far as possible

08.10.2025 09:38 โ ๐ 132 ๐ 31 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0Two prisoners stand at the edge of a metal walkway of a large industrial structure, one over the railing upon the precipice. Beyond them the ocean meets the horizon, stained by a blood red horizon. Behind the clouds, a dark sky is host to the red tinged silhouettes of a nearby gas giant, its rings and a moon with artificial lights upon its surface. The prisoner on the precipice says "Nobody gets out."
New Page day!
A full pager that's red as hell, showing the world outside the prison of Quod-Quell.
What viewers don't see is the many pieces of paper where I've tried to sketch out a rough map of the planet's orbit so these kinda views are (hopefully!) consistent.

HOT TAKE: Sometimes, I feel like the people saying this mean why isn't anyone with lots of power covering my game. When smaller folks ARE covering indie games and you're not uplifting them. You just want others to lift you up without giving back to the community.

The same pressures that have you desperately trying to make a success out of your game are the same pressures that have driven games media into the ground. It's all victim to the same economic crisis. There's no conspiracy, no lack of interest. Everyone is just broke af
09.10.2025 13:35 โ ๐ 105 ๐ 13 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Look. I totally get the despair and frustration. But every couple of weeks someone else is asking "where's press coverage for indie games?" and like, have you been under a rock? It's been torn to pieces my dudes! The devastation of games media has been widely talked about!

Fucking hell. As well as words by me, the book also has a foreword from Andy Kelly, author of Perfect Organism: An Alien Isolation Companion, and interview contributions from Lewis White and Richie Shoemaker. Clarence Lim contributed some photography, and the cover is by Samantha Mackenzie Greer. Two dozen new interviews in here, as well as loads of archive material.
Pre-orders for Aliens: The Video Games aren't too far away now.
The book is laid out - I've the proof to look over, this weekend.
When this is up for pre-order, please forgive me banging on even more about it. I'm hugely proud of it. I hope Alien likers who aren't even into the games can enjoy it.
Well now I know what tonight's after work plan is

Don't sleep on Absolum. It's not only my favorite roguelite of the year, it's also one of my top games of 2025. It captures the best of Dragon's Crown and Streets of Rage 4-- every run feels like a real adventure and all the fights are so damn cool. I loved it. Keep the roguelite beat-em-ups coming.

Wilful denial of reality, constantly constructing a universe for themselves in which they're not called upon to act in any way.
