#itch #censorship

Hey, as someone who makes a living off selling adult games, I would really appreciate people helping to push back against censorship by payment processors. These puritanical extremists pressuring them have been successful because they've made a lot of noise, so we should be making even more noise!

Credit Card Companies Are Hurting the Future of Video Games By going after Itch.io, “we’re really hamstringing the future of arts and communication.”

I talked to @halfrobot.com about what credit card companies have been doing to Itch and the impact that could have on the future of games www.404media.co/credit-card-...

Nahed hajjaj @nahed_hajjaj99 Follow Today I didn't do any journalistic work. I left the house to the market to find anything to eat. I found nothing. No one found anything. How do I enter the room of my family, how do i tell my mother, that they have to starve another night tonight? Tell me what should I tell them?

for 8 weeks, we've been running a class on Games & Adaptations, discussing intertextuality in its many forms (adaptation, pastiche, parody, and more).

and now, we've made our own adaptation games! join us friday, august 8, for an evening of games in dialog with other works :) hope to see you there!

Lander deserves a ton of respect for his willingness to subordinate his desires to blow up a genuinely evil man's campaign.

An image of the itch.io logo with pictures overlayed onto it. The top left shows me making a peace sign while wearing a pink gaming headset and a long sleeve PlayStation shirt. Bottom left is a screenshot from the game “Fairview Slipstream” by J. Isaac Gadient. It shows the player character out in the rain with pixel art and an isometric camera. To the right of that in the center is a screenshot from the original demo of the game “If Found” by Dreamfeel. It depicts two characters with deep red faces and white hair that are partially obscured and above that text that reads, “It’s KPOP. You wouldn’t like it.” In the bottom right corner of the image is a screenshot from “Winter, 2001: Someone Tell Luigi I Love Him” by Joey Schutz of Safe Fkight Games. It depicts a grey box version of the Mario character model from super Mario sunshine sitting in a yellow chair in front of an old, brown TV. The dimly lit backdrop is a black space with white dots across it and the text “So I snuck out into the living room where the TV was at.”

Tomorrow I’m going to be streaming some experiences from @itch.io.

I’ll start off with Fairview Slipstream by @jisaacgadient.bsky.social, pivot to Istanbul, Texas by @dreamfeel.bsky.social, play a surrealist game titled Winter, 2001: Someone tell Luigi I love him by @joeyschutz.bsky.social then…..

It's 2005 and your brother is dead; nothing to do but game.

"The hallways...were absolutely lined with ICE agents. And immigrants were scared to leave, even though their cases were still open. What happened was that ICE agents then stormed into the courtroom, kicked out the attorneys, and detained everyone in the courtroom over the judge's objections."
