Fact

Can't stop laughing at a story my friend told me yesterday about going to meet a work contact at the gates of Trinity. He went up to another waiting man and said "Are you Michael?" "Yes" "Will we go for a coffee?" "Sure." Over a coffee he realises it's not the Michael he's meant to be meeting.

Imagine stratagems are only activated on unit death and friendly fire is on. So you're shooting your own units in the back to trigger powerful stratagems but it has a big chance of backfiring and you wiping out your own squad Worms Armageddon style.

Environmental Storytelling – Chrono Cross This article contains spoilers for Chrono Cross and its prequel Chrono Trigger. What if someone told you that for the sake of a better world, you would no longer exist? In fact, not only yourself, …

Great to see Chrono Cross's stories of environmental destruction analysed in 2026. Good read from @samuelhowitt.bsky.social

It sort of flew under the radar how much the old Squaresoft had a lot to say about climate crisis between FF7, Chrono Trigger, and Cross.

FYI for fellow narrative designers/game writers: the studio in question is Sentona Games and it’s my understanding they are currently interviewing to replace me. Be very careful with them. They were very nice to me and easy to work with right up until I needed the money I was promised.

Absolute scenes in the Nolan household

I choose to believe Nolan saw that and then made Tenet just to commit to the bit

sometimes something bad happens where there are no malicious actors, no one is happy, and everyone gets the worst possible outcome they don't deserve. social media exists to strip such events of context so we can have clear winners and losers

In 2023, about two years after applying I was finally invited to the citizenship ceremony.

They put a wrong date on the invite.

New Narramblings!

I'm getting philosophical and ponder how narrative design in investigative games determines their vision of truth.

Godot is an incredible project making gamedev more accessible to so many creators.

If you have a few quid to spare, support them so they can continue doing that against the onslaught of slop.
