I had the Slow Game Club explained to me recently and itโ€™s the sweetest idea Iโ€™ve heard in a while ๐Ÿฅฒ
Forty quid for the year, you get a new game every month, and all the money goes to IntoGames, to give working class people in the UK better access to careers in game dev.

Helluva gift idea, too ๐Ÿ‘€๐ŸŽ„

Maybe if powerful people choosing inaction is cause for celebration, we should stop giving people so much power

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you donโ€™t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.

Writing a story, and the fact that I just googled "How much force does it take to break a window" and "Waffle House exterior" back-to-back probably landed me on some sort of watch list

No, thatโ€™s something entirely different.

Iโ€™m talking about, like, the opening voiceover SAYS โ€œthe galactic empire spans half a billion worlds,โ€ but then the story involves so many chance encounters and small-world networking that the galaxy FEELS more like a city of 100k people

to rephrase, what do we call it when a storyโ€™s stated stakes exceed the vibes?

Is there a name for that thing that happens sometimes in fiction where weโ€™re told the scale is very big but the actual story feels much smaller?

e.g., a โ€œfate of the worldโ€ story that takes place entirely in New York City, or a โ€œsave the galaxyโ€ story that visits five cities on four planets

To this day, if I find a good enough stick (or broom, or shower rod, or whatever) and have enough room to swing it around, I will pretend I could fight with it even a tenth as well as she does

Please don't do any of these things to me. It's creepy, it's not sincere, I hate making eye contact with strangers, and if I'm in Target, my day is not going well and I don't need help

Did you enjoy Blue Prince? Do you feel like being a genuine hero?

Iggy, one of the lead playtesters for Blue Prince, needs a kidney.

Reposting for reach is a great way to help - or, could that be you? Who knows what magic the internet is capable of โœจ

Let's try to help connect the dots here!

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting

game idea kicking around in my head:

racing game, but one player is randomly assigned to be a The Cheater who has access to operate on-track hazards, but if players correctly identify them theyโ€™re disqualified from the circuit

am I on to anything here?

Amused by the thought of vinyl-cutting an fmod logo and putting it on my car

Iโ€™m picturing non-developers who recognize the logo from games theyโ€™ve played sitting behind me at a stop light seeing the logo and asking themselves โ€œwait a second what the heck even IS fmod?โ€

Are they counting people kidnapped and shipped off to random foreign countries as โ€œweight loss?โ€

Are they counting excess deaths from disastrous health policies as โ€œweight loss?โ€

If every man, woman, and child weighed an average of 150 lbs, that would only come out to 51 billion lbs. In order for that number to work, Americans would have to weigh on average almost 400 lbs.

And then if we collectively lost that much weight, weโ€™d all be literally dead.

Stop sharing AI slop.

It's one thing if you don't know or just made a mistake. No need to breathe down someones neck b/c its harder to tell nowadays.

But if you do know (ESPECIALLY IF YOU DO KNOW) even if you're posting it to make fun of it or sharing it unironically... consider not doing that.
