One year ago today, Moore Games was born!
It's been a busy first year, lots of lessons learnt but overall it's been a great start.
The main focus for the next few months is helping the incredibly talented team at Neon Giant with No Law as its launch gets ever closer.
It's launch day for @beacondev.bsky.social's Aethus, a great little survival/crafting game with just enough narrative to keep the adventure moving without getting in the way. Mine with your drone/friend, upgrade tech, explore farther, and find what's hidden below.

I'm so happy that Alex has got this to release, and still utterly amazed at what an amazing job he's done.
It's a great little game, he could easily sell it at £30 but he's launched it at £13!!!
Well worth your support
I’m flying to Sweden a lot at the moment. The food at Stockholm Arlanda T5 is fab and not that much more than elsewhere in Sweden (which is now, if anything, cheaper than eating out in the UK).
Manchester Airport has a Giraffe that you instantly regret and need a bank loan to eat at.
It was a fun day for sure 😍
No doubt there will be more fun days in the future, will keep a lookout for you.
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!
It’s been a minute since a game I worked on has featured in a magazine, and it still feels awesome :)
A short film about endometriosis has won a BAFTA, bringing much needed visibility to the disabling condition.
Endometriosis and adenomyosis robbed me of years of my life.
Countless surgeries, blood transfusions and hospital stays.
Doctors saying it was “no big deal”.
It’s a very big deal:

You’ve said players aren’t region locked, so do these events give you an advantage or special valuable items?
If so then - with my game design hat on 😉 - I’d wager it’s a conscious decision to ensure somebody doesn’t rinse each event and gain x3 stuff over someone who only plays at 9pm local
Of course, it could just be a conscious decision from the dev team, or something they just didn’t think of.
It could also be something that’s gone round 100 times internally and led to decision paralysis, which I’ve seen happen a fair few times 😕
2/ Time zones… if there seems to be an obvious solution that hasn’t been used, try to understand what the pitfalls of that solution might be.
Are players region locked? Could they spoof their IP to gain an advantage? Is there a cost to running each event? Etc.
1/ It is indeed preferable to have things you’ll want to tweak quickly as an online file that can be checked at boot, but you obviously need to do this in a very secure way so nobody can fake that file and cheat.
Caveat - I haven’t played Arc Raiders so don’t know the systems you’re asking about, so my answers are going to be “in general”.
I haven’t watched it but there looks to be a fan edit that follows the story from Aurora’s perspective.

The version we use has had it since about November... unfortunately it hasn't solved all the world's issues but it doesn't blind us anymore.
Do any of my UK mutuals have recommendations where I can purchase a freelancer contract? Looking for something I can provide clients when hiring me for writing / narrative design and copywriting.

I rarely share things like this, but this is for a friend’s son who needs very specialist treatment that isn’t available in the UK

The cake was a success 🥳
We also only have 1x 8” tin, so I made 2 tiers instead of 3. Both of which looked lovely until I transferred them out and then they deflated ☹️
Hopefully still light enough and will go down well for the birthday it’s for tomorrow! 🙏🏼
Thank you for posting the recipe 😀
I cut the butter up pretty small and may have started adding it in when the milk mix was still a bit warm 👀
And then just turned the mixer to full blast for a bit. As you said, it’d be impossible by hand.
I’ve also only just noticed you warned everyone about how long it would take 🤣🤣
I just saw the first tweet and saved it, thought it looked yummy.
Decided to try and make one of these, I really should’ve actually read the recipe before embarking on a 2 hour cake making journey 🤣
The icing is amazing though! Almost like making fudge to start…
Shame my icing skills don’t live up to the taste
