RIP Rebecca Heineman @burgerbecky.bsky.social, game developer pioneer and legend. Grateful we got to chat last year at San Francisco GDC. It was much too short.

The cover of issue 31 of Pixel Addict magazine. The cover art shows scenes from the game Prince of Persia by Jordan Mechner.
A real honour to interview @jmechner.bsky.social for the new issue of @pixeladdict.bsky.social – which also features his amazing art on the cover!
The article looks back over each of his games, while also touching on his writing, illustration and film work.
🙏❤️

Relendo o feed do @jmechner.bsky.social sobre a criação do Prince of Persia, ele diz que as vendas foram ruins no início e que falaram a ele: "É um ótimo jogo, mas a embalagem é horrível".
Isso me faz pensar que Americano não gosta de capas boas. Olha só que capa linda!!! +

Merci @shiftyweb.bsky.social pour la reco !
I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been “immigrants go home.”
It would have been “get your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”
you should watch this trippy video with the same animation 😆

O @jmechner.bsky.social foi entrevistado pelo Alessandro Giannini para a Veja sobre seu quadrinho, Replay, que acabou de sair pela Conrad.
A entrevista tá excelente!

"A música que tocamos no CD player para inspiração é do caralho. A abertura vibrante de Lawrence da Arábia, de Maurice Jarre - incrível"
Uma das partes que tive que marcar dos diários que @jmechner.bsky.social escreveu durante o desenvolvimento de Prince of Persia.
Dito isso, olha só o que chegou
Wow, I haven't seen that box in years!
