I have had my work passed off as someone else's or used without permission many times before - it is never simple.
At certain times, the repetitious campaigning and grandstanding is mega helpful and at other times it is counterproductive.
Trying to collapse every conversation about Marathon into a ritualistic performance of who can shout "Bungie stole art" the loudest does more harm than good to artists in general.

28.02.2026 08:47 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Not every single context needs to be collapsed into a litany of grievances? I thought the artist in question made a statement saying the issue was resolved to their satisfaction.
28.02.2026 08:25 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0📆 ON THIS DAY in 2006 • 20 years ago! 😮 @8bitpeoples.bsky.social releases Information Chase, 6 mp3s of chiptune powerpop. It's since come out on CD & vinyl, & I've performed its songs to audiences who have loudly sung along, despite there being no words. What could be more heartwarming than that? 🙏
27.02.2026 19:54 — 👍 33 🔁 7 💬 3 📌 4Final day! Final pitch to those on the fence: We've successfully delivered 6 KS projects previously. ABIDE is fresh, for horror and for games. It is mature and well researched. It is brutal. Stop motion but also a proper game. We aim to be generous and to entertain with our games.

Trying to replace game journalists with AI is one of the single most stupid uses of the technology I've seen and that is a hotly contested category.
The entire point of written games journalism is the expression of a subjective human perspective: that is the value; that is the purpose.
I released my first commercial game at age 30. This is a lame take.

Hmm have they done the classic "we consulted everyone" without actually talking to any indies again? That's rapidly becoming one of my biggest annoyances for this kind of thing
26.02.2026 08:24 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Still 3 days left if you want to be a part of our unique KickStarter. Extra funds will give us freedom to experiment and afford more materials. We have ideas that we'd love to explore but I'm not a fan of promising stretch goals when more interesting things can arise organically through development.
