The way a child plays is the way they live’: how therapists are using video games to help vulnerable children Minecraft and other creative games are becoming recognised as powerful means of self-expression and mental health support, including for traumatised Ukrainian refugees

Water Cycle - After a pause, I had the chance to finish playing Phoenix Springs this evening. A darkly fascinating conclusion to this mystery of a game - one that is certainly willing to leave plenty of enigmas in its wake. I rather wish more games would be this cool, meditative, and disquieting.

Thank you 🙏

Hi friends!

My team is casting 5 voice actors for contract roles in our combat-focused video game! Ideally remote voice talent with home recording setups.

We’re seeking authentic representation for the following roles:

A Dialogue with Joshua Rivera - Unwinnable "I don't bill myself as a games critic. It's not good for my career prospects."

"We had the chance to be truly expansive, and we couldn’t get over the fact that we loved games too much."

This month in Dialogue, @jmrivera.bsky.social on why the games industry shouldn't exist and how games media fails itself.

Last chance to get Perfect Tides on sale!

This is one of my favorite examples of game design and balancing to tell people that don't really know much about games and how they're made. It's such a delightful bit of psychology and really accessible to understand. @edstern.bsky.social explains it so well.

Last day to pick up a deal like Ian did.

I went to the Barbican today with my infrared camera! r/brutalism

The good part of AI is that the only thing a writer can do to combat it is to become more human. Make your writing weirder, hornier, more violent, absurd, poetic, difficult, political, jagged, dreamlike, ironic, surreal, alive. You don't have any choice but to plumb the depths.

small games by tiny devs finding huge success by dropping all notions of expression and focusing on dopamine delivery has done some sort of heavy damage to whatever I believed in in the 2010s about game design
