TBC friends - Erika Ishii, our friend and and former god - is in this. Decent chance that among our players, there are some fans of musicals - who'd like to see them rock out.

Big Strange Scaffold news dropping at this thing today 👀

I can finally say we're real and doing a thing!

Works every time

Then cheers to them; we're damn glad you did.

Headline's a bit misleading. They're not worried that AI will replace them because it's good, but because "generative AI trained on vast amounts of [stolen] fiction will undermine the value of writing" itself

insomnia got me, bro- but what’s left of me is yelling to an empty room,

“No, we MUST retroactively rename all the work on old-school game AI to honor its frailty & charm, before history paves over it as Pre-LLM”

“yes-and dynamics?” “Soft Robotics?”

(foaming)

“PREDICTIVE KAYFABE”

Hell yeah. Subtle menace forever. Same photo was in our ref pull for TKS, in a previous form - ultimately wasn't where we ended up but it's great to see a game lean into that.

But: highlight of my week was a dear friend's character in Call of Cthulhu getting pulped by an abomination, in a ~2006 era gaming store? (IDK, just mythos things)

Has anybody made an indie game discovery tool that's like ' my friend likes [ AAA/AA from 20 years ago ] so he might like [ these 10 random indie games]? I'm trying to convince people that what they want will be out there in indie but I don't know every genre 🫠

Leibniz said that his goal was an alphabet of human thought, a universal symbolic language (characteristic) for science, mathematics, and metaphysics. According to Couturat, "In May 1676, he once again identified the universal language with the characteristic and dreamed of a language that would also be a calculus-a sort of algebra of thought" (1901, chp 3.). This characteristic was a universalisation of the various "real characteristics". Couturat wrote that Leibniz gave Egyptian and Chinese hieroglyphics and chemical signs as examples of real characteristics writing.

So in the 1660s and 1670s, Leibniz had this idea for a "Characteristica universalis": "a theoretical, universal symbolic language designed to represent all knowledge, making philosophical and scientific reasoning as precise and unambiguous as mathematics."

Thank you, Emma! 🫀 Follow her on bsky, BG3 & voice acting nerds! One of the finest voice talents alive. The Killing Stone may be read as my barely-veiled fanfic about her making a pact with the devil to go on performing for an extra 100 years.

(I'm just saying, Emma... *consider your legacy* 😈)

I was trying to react with a good "thousand yard stare" but this was way too funny. My Vision is ruined but it's worth it, sort of?

...hey wait

good reason for me to make an account on both at once 😎

How does an #indiestudio create a soundtrack for their 17th century folk horror game?

Step one: Hire a badass audio team.
Step two: let them be their weird, wonderful selves.

@chrisrickwood.bsky.social made his own tagelharp (YES - handmade!), then he also tracked down a hurdy-gurdy just for us.

Thank you, Tiny Mavens!

If you're on the edge let me endorse is to you - in this game you literally bargain with Demons before fighting them, and thats hella cool. Also the demons are polite cosmic horrors, so that's a bonus.

I'm going to do this again today at ~noon pacific, if you're a game dev nerd and want to join us... or just make fun of my voice acting, I guess? valid

basically all of these films were major points of obsession for me in college, and now you can watch them all just on youtube. amazing. in particular Mirror basically changed my entire relationship with film after i took a Russian cinema class on a whim and it made me change to a film major.

It's gonna be 9 years I've been with Question in January. That's by far the longest I've been with any team, and far longer than most gamedev teams survive. I love this team.
