The logo for Mindset Go!. It shows two interlinked circles, one blue, one black. On the edge of the black circle are two smaller shapes, a yellow square and a red triangle.

I've been waiting three years to post this.

Mindset is a new type of puzzle, a mix of observation and logic. Think Sudoku, Picross, Connections and... none of those. It's new.

The first videogame version is called Mindset Go!. It's out soon on iOS and Android. I really hope you like it.

interestingly, "your fans making you feel like you're cool when you're not" is also the big problem with audience capture on social media

Watched fantastic four, whole time swearing I recognised galactus’ voice.

Looked it up, long story short I have had pints with a planet eater.

Yeah, happy about this, very good for ecosystem

Yeah, exciting for the ecosystem!

‘Be a friendly person present in social situations, and a subset of people you like like will like like you too’ does not a paid seminar and recurrent business model make

My love for godot has reached a level where I feel comfortable yelling at it. This is an important stage in any relationship to a piece of software, and absolutely healthy / not indicative of anything bad in my character.

One day, we’re gonna create a computer that can reliably count. We just need more server farms, and a general loosening of property ownership laws.

I should say this more often but it's gets tiring, but: please share the game, link it to a friend, etc. It is by far the most effective way to spread the word for niche games like this.

An overview of the Creche, a building that can be constructed in upcoming game Amberspire. On the left is the building art, a small, chapel-like building with tall, thin windows along its sides and a large, circular window above the doorway. The grounds surrounding it are green and lush, with a number of coral-like growths around the edges, some of which are as tall as the building itself. On the right are the details of the building and its flavour text, reading: Creche. Roll dice to produce resources. "What feels like a small set of rooms used for play, learning, and sleeping, is in fact a carefully sealed vault, immune to the waves of entropy that surround the rest of us. - A Pilgrim to Amber". There is also a diagram of the resources that the dice from this building can produce when rolled. Three faces are tides, two are horizon, and one is root.

AMBERSPIRE 🌇 The Creche

A small but useful building, the Creche can easily be tucked in amongst even the busier corners of your city. If you roll well, it can create a steady supply of Tides, a handy resource for construction and trading for influence.

Absolutely sucks to see people I care about succumb to ai offloading. Piece by piece replacing their creativity, voice and opinions with dice rolls. Not faster or better, just less present in their own lives.

I sometimes fantasise about being a tour guide. I think I’d be good at walking around with small groups, being friendly, and pointing at historically interesting walls.

I’m really excited to announce I’m partnering with the Labour Party to hahaha can you imagine? Seriously though, this is the most anti-LGBTQ government we’ve had in decades

Hey look, it’s our long-overdue punishment for referring to simple state machines that compile into a kilobyte of code as “artificial intelligence”

Tracksuits and me I still love them, but in Tesco they can bring no end of trouble.

"Class has a uniform," writes Matt Taylor. "Whenever I slip back into a tracksuit, Tesco staff follow me around the store, and the cashiers ask for ID. If I go for a run, police stop me and ask why I’m running."

He writes for us about clothing and class today:

lol, we walk among you, like vampires

Most of the internet used to be like this. This is actually the default, it took companies enclosing the internet and adding weird, soul-killing incentives to make people behave the way they do now. In a way, there is truly nothing special about Wikipedia except that it survived longer.

I can believe that, for sure

Wandering around a tattoo convention with very strong plus one energy. Fucking cool illustrators though, game people should hire tattoo artists.

Just before I moved to leamington for my first job. I would have benefited from heeding its advice.

Re last RT: take a break from writing the ‘GTA6 was made in Scotland’ blog post, you won’t need it for a few more months. Take on this issue while we still can, @ukieofficial.bsky.social.

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?

Amazon, but i reckon drop shipped, so there are no doubt cheaper options

Not this guy!

Thanks! Amazing work from the art team! Reflections make everything better!
