Yes! All AdventureX talks and panels are livestreamed on our Twitch and YouTube channel throughout the event, and then edited and uploaded as individual videos on Youtube at a later date.

Freue mich, dass meine kritische Linse, die bei Anno 1800 noch intensiv beschmunzelt wurde, nun doch angenommen wird - auch wenn ich mir gewünscht hätte, dass es noch tiefer geht, als die gleiche Frage nach Sklaverei einfach noch mal erneut zu stellen. Nichtsdestotrotz: schön. Und überfällig.

Saying «AI is just a tool» might be the laziest form of aggressive ignorance. As a statement, it's ultimately both trivial and almost meaningless, serving only to free you from further thought so that you can use the gadgets without caring about their preconditions, implications, and consequences

The Double Land Raider is a trap. Smash Captain and Jump Intercessors is Classic BA. So is a Predator Tank.

You can’t underestimate everyone Here is a quick list of features in inkle games which we failed to tutorialise or remind players of enough. The data is empirically backed…

New article: one thing from every inkle game that we failed to explain clearly enough, and how often we've been made to regret it.

Thank you so much for the kind words!

Calling all game developers working on making the future a better place, or addressing the bullshit of our current time in some creative way! Where are you? Let's connect and team up.

So I recently finished playing Mini Mini Golf Golf by @threemoreyears.bsky.social and I think you might have some common stuff to talk about.

They're tackling climate collapse through the lense of a simple golf game, merged with Immortality-like segments you have to decode. It's really good!

Dev Culture Is Dying The Curious Developer Is Gone From tinkerers to metric seekers: How the shift in developer culture is impacting innovation and creativity.

“Dev Culture Is Dying The Curious Developer Is Gone”

“Software development is a unique craft, it’s equal parts creative and equal parts engineering, two opposing forces that when combined can create something truly amazing.”

realizing there is a profound modernity in the "maximize each time slot" ludonarrative of Persona or Consume Me, the pressure to balance all your resources towards barely fulfillable goals, achieving salvation only by weighing the costs and rewards of meals, hobbies, friendships

Thanks for expanding!

Thanks for this! Do you think art can be defined by people playing the game or is it enough for the author to say it's art?

This is wonderful, thank you!

Thanks for sharing, that sounds cool!

I'll be giving a workshop on art games soon, and i wanted to ask y'all "how would you describe art games?"

For us, it's making games that create friction with a common imagination of our shared future. And figuring out how to narrate fiction beyond the hero's journey. What's it for you?

Really interesting experience, love to see and play weird narrations, especially if they are about future, climat and technology :)

Thanks for the shoutout and for playing!

Oh this looks fascinating

There's this saying in our neck of the woods - a squirrel's sustenance is achieved through tedium.
But slowly things come together. For this #screenshotsaturday, it's a first glimpse at the gameplay loop!
