i think the only things i didn’t do were (omg) the red bucket on top of the sand castle (oh but i tried) and one of the can stacks that was too hard. climbing in this game is a stroll in the park for me now, the rhythm of moving perfectly natural. i am corrupted, the moral of the story is lost on me

well, i beat the manbreaker on my 2nd try. i’m not proud. completionism in excess got me here

The epstein files reveal the bourgeoisie acting AS A CLASS, which is to say, sharing ideas, cultural touchstones and social circles. But they do not invent economic conditions out of idle conversations, they are idiots repeating what they hear from their underlings and colleagues, please im begging

"I spend a lot of time in my blogging spitting at Artists and Artisans and their neuroses; and i guess i should acknowledge that, for a very long time, i shared these aspirations and shaped my own ambitions after them."

i went from 0 to 100 in the space of a year, basically counting from the moment i unrepressed and realized anything, and even then i already began socially transitioning. strongly recommend. and when you finally do it, get off the computer and throw yourself into the world

this one's already gotten attention for the stunning art style, but beyond that, the cinematic framing and pacing and environments have Ico and Limbo abt them - and are so accomplished it can be fairly spoken of in that company

a game combining mini golf mechanics, climate and relationship collapse, and FMVs about game design that somehow...works? a visual metaphor between mini golf and plate tectonics ties it all together. ambitious

confidently theatrical space design - which makes sense given that this is a multimedia project with a live theatre version - and surprises that come in the form of different fictional games and approaches to narrative
