Yeah, we ran a kickstarter last year, and have a different product about to hit the water. If nothing changes, we'll have a >$200,000 tax bill. That's multiple people's salaries.

*In a single player experience, Cheating in multiplayer is robbing other people of fun, and that sucks.

IMO People are better experts on what they have fun with than designers. I don't think anyone is robbing themselves of anything by skipping (or cheating*) their way through an experience. That doesn't mean all games have to be for all people, and difficult games still have their place.

Sultai if you feel confident, Temur if you just want big stuff to throw at someone.

As a board game developer, and specifically one who operates on Kickstarter, basically any board game Kickstarter run in the past 6-12 months just saw their operating profit vanish in a cloud of smoke. Our industry is about to get decimated.

This game rules and I'm so happy that people are still finding it.

For a lot of people, tariffs are not a distraction. They are impactful and will cost jobs and livelihood.

Found this through the pointcrow vid. Looking forward to a release and amazing work.

IME people don't like admitting that their takes are subjective. A decent chunk of internet culture lacks the nuance to recognize that subjective takes are valid and important, that a vast majority of criticism is subjective, and that they aren't rooting in objectivity when they speak.

Muhammad Ali comes out this year, so they can have a boxing match.

Witness My Exhaust Pipe, Sucka There’s something refreshing about Thunder Road: Vendetta. In a bygone era we would have called it Ameritrash, although there’s an elegance under the hood that belies its spots of rust.…

Thunder Road: Vendetta is another effort by Restoration Games that not only captures the spirit of the original, but supercharges it. My review: spacebiff.com/2025/02/19/t...

I love the Marriage% speedruns in Stardew Valley, where the first 15-20 minutes of the run are carving crop circles in the beach.

Have you played Outer Wilds, a game released in the exact same year, which I constantly get confused with this game?

tbh, this is my 'personal' social media now, so I'm just blocking/muting people who talk about politics on here. This place is for games and comics and pictures of animals.

I usually hate puzzle games, but Storyteller clicked for me in a way that little else has.

I saw this so many times in video games. My first job was a team of 20 balance designers, and by last count only one other person besides me was still in games.
