Welkom op Unpause! - Unpause Unpause is een gamewebsite. Zo lastig als dat blijkt, zo simpel kan het zijn.

De gamejournalistiek dreigde uit Nederland te verdwijnen Daarom zijn we vandaag met Unpause begonnen.

Een gamesite die van onszelf is, zonder uitgever. Ons verdienmodel is simpel: onze lezers kunnen abonneren.

Kom lezen, en steun als je wil en kan!

Mick's rijmwoordenboek is een matig rijmwoordenboek :( Ik mis rijmwoordenboek.net!

My friends have poured so much love and fun into this game! I thorougly enjoyed playtesting the levels during development, and I can heartily recommend it if you like co-op puzzle solving!

I mean just look at how gorgeously cute it is

Bought! Looks really fun

Hi #PitchYaGame,

Can I interest you in an our M.C. Escher inspired Ghibli-esque, Alice in Wonderland adventure where you control time and space?

Wish I could be there! Have fun :)

Gefeliciteerd!

Added a new character to Nomori. A giant... toad?! 🐸

That looks extremely tactical

A interactive experience for almost every day of the year!

Then perish

Yes!!

Happy birthday Nathalie! 🥳

Yeah, anything can be a toy but not necessarily a game. However, one could argue that whenever you start playing with something, you create a temporary game in your head, and design the rules as you go. But I admit that does not really help sharpen the definition.

Gotcha! I once heard the theory that 'game design might one day invent a periodic table like chemistry did that will make eveything clear, but it isn't here yet for sure'. You're putting the work in at least! And your writings are always thought-provoking, so thanks!

Haha yeah I like to believe that 'play' is a state of being that doesn't really survive cold examination and dissection. Like humour, it just gets worse then. But now I get why you want to leave it out of consideration!

I don't understand why reproducing of conventions is relevant, but then again I don't read up on game design theory so I may just be ignorant on this topic. I guess imo, the fundamentals of game design ARE more about play then about the cold artefacts. I don't want to hinder your exploration though

I like these statements but I really do miss the term 'play' in here. Games are about play imo! That seperates video games from regular interactive software.

Google Doc's Dutch spelling correction has plummeted since they introduced AI. It's so bad!

The Google doodle moon game is lovely! doodles.google/doodle/rise-...

Really up my alley in scope and game experience
