Ooh this a very nice selection to wrap up spooktoberjam

I've seen more baguettes at #paxaus this weekend than I've seen demon hunters.

On Wednesday, 10/15 @10pm I'm going to be streaming @butterfly-rocket.bsky.social's #SpooktoberVNJam entry If One Goes Astray and talking with their team afterward! I hope you will join me!

Ooh who did you interview? Or is secret?

I'm not usually a fan of spiders, far from it, but look at this lil guy! Look his lil feeties and lil maw. I need to draw him.

Welp, @ameliatyler.bsky.social gave our DM the go-ahead to TPK us. She signed off on it. Queen's decree is final. So I guess I'm rolling for another character #paxaus

Ah, awesome! 😊

Mistershins plays the VNs and interviews the devs! More #spooktoberVNjam streams to come from him! Here's ours 😊

The words "If One Goes Astray" appear in the game logo foreground, with a golden-edged, leafless tree behind it. Small blue lights drift around in darkness surrounding the words.

Absolutely keep up pressure on MasterCard and other payment processors over their continuous attack on businesses that provide adult work, but don't let Itch off the hook entirely. Remember that they gave their creators NO WARNING about this happening, and a lot of deplatformed people...

Maybe we could find out.

Australian anti-porn group claims responsibility for Steam's new censorship rules in victory against 'porn sick brain rotted pedo gamer fetishists', and things only get weirder from there Everyone hated that.

So you know how Steam updates their TOS to restrict "NSFW" content at the request of payment processors like Visa and Mastercard?

The group behind that pressure campaign is coming after Itch.io.

If you are selling books on itch, this concerns you.
