A graph titled Scope of video games according to Hushcrasher Classification System. The Y axis shows Game Size (from 10 MB to 100GB), the X axis shows Credits count (sourced from Mobygames). The clustered dots on the graph represent 4 distinct scale categories of games - Kei, Midi, AA, AAA. The larger correlation between the size and the credits means larger category of a game.

I love this analytical take on video game categorization from Antoine Mayerowitz and Julie Belzanne:

Instead of trying to vibe-intuit the definition of an "indie" game, the authors analyzed the data from the perspective of game size and credits length

Recently finished the Gogmagog duology and can’t recommend them enough. Gorgeously surreal, alternate-universe post-war London, where the worldbuilding is the draw but the rich prose is what hooks you. The best written fantasy I’ve read in a long while.

I saw a #writing advice thread going around yesterday and I have some advice specifically for game writers: don't bury your own voice

How Embracing Imperfection Makes Indie Game Development Easier What pushed Undertale, Citizen Sleeper, and A Short Hike to stardom? It wasn't just their emotional storytelling and satisfying gameplay loop. It's everything else that supported it.

Most successful indie games may feel they're "perfect," but it's their imperfection that makes them feel that way, giving them character and innovative systems.

The Story Within A Story In NieR: Automata’s Difficult Tutorial Tutorials are meant to show players the game's fundamental mechanics and systems. NieR: Automata does the opposite... sort of, but for a good, storytelling, reason.

Here's another article looking into the design and storytelling choices of NieR: Automata’s tutorial, focusing on the difficulty and meaning behind each sequence.

kyle_maclachlan Forty-two years ago, for reasons beyond my comprehension, David Lynch plucked me out of obscurity to star in his first and last big budget movie. He clearly saw something in me that even I didn't recognize. I owe my entire career, and life really, to his vision. What I saw in him was an enigmatic and intuitive man with a creative ocean bursting forth inside of him. He was in touch with something the rest of us wish we could get to. Our friendship blossomed on Blue Velvet and then Twin Peaks and I always found him to be the most authentically alive person I'd ever met. David was in tune with the universe and his own imagination on a level that seemed to be the best version of human. He was not interested in answers because he understood that questions are the drive that make us who we are. They are our breath. While the world has lost a remarkable artist, l've lost a dear friend who imagined a future for me and allowed me to travel in worlds I could never have conceived on my own. I can see him now, standing up to greet me in his backyard, with a warm smile and big hug and that Great Plains honk of a voice. We'd talk coffee, the joy of the unexpected, the beauty of the world, and laugh. His love for me and mine for him came out of the cosmic fate of two people who saw the best things about themselves in each other. I will miss him more than the limits of my language can tell and my heart can bear. My world is that much fuller because I knew him and that much emptier now that he's gone. David, I remain forever changed, and forever your Kale. Thank you for everything.

This is a beautiful tribute.

The @remedygames.com internal code name for Alan Wake 2 was ”Big Fish”. I think David Lynch is swimming with the big fish now. Rest in peace. His influence goes far and wide and will live on.
