Take me down to the Parallax city where the far moves slow and the near moves quickly

My advice to any new guitarist is this:

* buy a guitar stand

(if you have to “get guitar, open case, get out of case, etc” then you’ll never play it as much as if it’s sitting out)

I will never forget my old lead designer at Turbine, Chris Clay, who had a rule:

Never spend more time talking about a design in a meeting than it would take to prototype it and see.

I was in plenty of meetings where he suddenly slapped the table and invoked Clay's Law

Indie games

Ask for feedback online on your creative projects. Really, do it!

It’s easier to know if you are going the right directions, if ideas work or not.

Feedback isn’t personal criticism. It is personal development - and not all feedback has to be followed to a Tee

It is once again time

My son is autistic, largely nonverbal. He reads a lot, is smitten with all things Lego. He excels in school. He finds his ways to communicate.

There’s nothing wrong with autism. The rhetoric drives me mad.

It’s on us to make the world easier for neurodiverse folks, not to push them to conform.

Neo Cab is back on the App Store!

We had to re-submit as a brand new game & unfortunately lost all of our reviews. If you've already enjoyed Neo Cab, please consider leaving a new review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you haven't played Neo Cab yet, now's a great time to check it out - the first chapter is free!

Frustrated little dude gripping a pencil saying “how do I pack this down into something I can actually share?” While swirling rainbows labeled “INFINITE POTENTIAL” float around them. Little dude frowns at a tiny grey box, exclaiming “all that work for THIS?!” Little dude shoves the grey box into another little guy’s hands; Frowning, stomping off, and saying “Here you go, I made this, it sucks.” Second little dude cracks open the box, swirling rainbows project out onto their face. Second little dude stares in awe at all the swirling rainbows now floating around them.

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

I wouldn’t say “beloved” but there’s an episode of Mythic Quest that makes every game dev dissociate

There's NOTHING in this existence that it's more important to be than yourself. Fully, without reservation or restraint, just exactly who you are. Denying trans folks that opportunity is denying their basic humanity.

Most importantly, without Pitch Black, we would never have gotten the MENU CUBE.

sunscreen is the closest thing we have to a magic potion. you rub in on your skin, it DISAPPEARS, and then you get a +95 buff to burn resistance. wild

With the updated RCV totals just released by the Board of Elections, our campaign has officially earned the most total votes in a primary in New York City history.

A number of anthropomorphic animals, drawn in the distinct style of Scott Benson, march together under a banner that reads: NOT ME. US.

I can’t wear this shirt anymore—it started falling apart after years in heavy rotation—but recent days have reminded me that this message, this spirit never went away. This is still a winning idea. This is still how we build a better future. (One or two of you, I suspect, will recognize the artist.)

Thank you so much @alexaray.bsky.social for reaching out to me to write/lead this silly little skit about a very personal topic (and get to bust out my Sarah McLachlan impression).

We are fighting like hell to stop Musk’s staffers. They come into our buildings, forcibly removing us with the FBI, U.S. Marshals, and police. This coup must be stopped.
