That gave me a real chuckle out loud

“We’d have landed on 2.” ChatGPT, how many fingers am I holding up?

I like it when I finally find a team I think I could join on a more permanent basis, and then they go on to never make another game of that sort again, or maybe even close down.

It’s the best, right? There’s also a lot of admin work.

Ah yes. Good times.

At $20 a ticket, it sounds comparable to the fake proms that happen here.

Sorry

looks good!

How else can they be subjected to political gamesmanship having nothing to do with making a good game, without leaving a paper trail?

Givem sufficient time every town in The United Kingdom will have a crime show named after it.

All the production babies graduating from college

“Their work describes a material that could open the door to new ways to collect water from the air in arid regions and devices that cool electronics or buildings using the power of evaporation.”

Good thing the continents aren’t drying out and all the other organisms that rely on the water cycle don’t need any of the water that passes through the air.

Yes! This is also why most ppls narrative workflows are difficult/broken. Teams have a “narrative tool” but that’s only one small piece of the job.

I don’t understand… this game has been in the works for at least the entire 11-year duration of my freelance career. I’ve worked on something like 18 shipped games in that time. We’ve sailed past Skull & Bones length into a part of the map that just says “dragons”.

It [stroopwaffle] came from the deep

out... of the coffee instead of into it? 😆

and here I thought they were pressed, not extruded

what a team!

The writing is phenomenal :) the introduction to the Storming of the Bastille alone always gives me chills

Need to remind everyone that @maryarroz.bsky.social lead writing on this and did a fabulous job and you should play, read her words, and occasionally pilot a mech in revolutionary France.

Protect your hearts, game devs. It's tough out there.

I've been thinking that since these started popping up. If I flew over the north pole to get to Shanghai, does that make it north or south? 😂

fabulous, brilliant, annoyed sounds about right!

Great!

My last android phone was not so good to me. I think whatever you use is bound to grate on you after a while. And it's not like google is making positive contributions to the world anymore either. Trapped, I say.
