ET, the Extra Terrestrial, in a shop window in France. If you pinch zoom the photo you can see my reflection, tears in my eyes.

Can't stop thinking about this second hand shop in Paris that had a life sized ET for sale but was closed. I probably would have bought an extra seat ticket to get it home to Wales :(

The creator of the original 1982 Football Manager is re-releasing it on Steam, joking it's "the only Football* Manager coming this year".

E123 - The Fratton Park phantom goal, Largs' Fiorentina pennant & guest Kevin Toms When Saturday Comes · Episode

I also got Kevin on the When Saturday Comes podcast, a comparable project because it also started out as a grassroots passion project (a football fanzine) in the 1980s, filling a gap that didn’t exist.

If this is the sort of thoughtful, targeted coverage you’d like for your game, give me a nudge

A cool little project I’ve been working on - the release of Kevin Toms Football Star Manager. The game that started the Football Management genre back in 1982.

There’s a big interview in the latest KNOWLEDGE newsletter.

Adult games are forcing the game industry into a spiritual crisis Itchio joins Steam in pulling games due to pressure from extreme groups with an ongoing campaign aimed at payment processors

I've looked & I could have missed it, maybe its saved in their drafts but @ukieofficial.bsky.social TIGA, BFI, that new video game council. Which UK body representing games is stepping up to publicly speak about the mass censorship of the cultural form they represent?

American Truck Simulator but it's 1969 and you're in a Dodge boogie van taking hitchers, draft dodgers & bands to festivals. Dropping off groupies, grass & acid, customising engine with grunt & sweat. Velvet curtains, tassels for interior upgrades. Proximity chat is CB radio. Soundtrack? Creedence

Deliver a six pack and a carton of Marlboro to Chuck's garage

I'm working on a GamesIndustry.biz article about the Steam and Itch content crackdowns, and I'd love to hear from someone in a country where payment options online are limited. If you're reliant on PayPal or another highly specific processor to get hold of games, please get in touch!

‘JETRUNNER’ Puts Speed and Precision First and Foremost, Taking Inspiration From ‘Neon White’ and ‘Trackmania’ for High-Flying Action 'JETRUNNER' combines movement with shooting for a new futuristic sport, one that I can't wait to sink far too much time into.

Vice also dig it: "Impeccable art direction... stellar level designs"

What we've been playing - speedrunners, elusive secret doors, and guessing games What have you been playing this week?

"Jetrunner is bright, playful, enthusiastic and, from what little I've played of it, very well made."

Eurogamer knows the score. Have you tried the Steam demo yet?
