hey remember when I got shit on for years for trying to warn people that GamerGate was just Nazis and not just about harassing women and not just about some “consumer revolt”

The notion that the US would bring "freedom" to Cuba is actually obscene. The US effectively controlled Cuba for half a century before the revolution, and ran it as a dictatorship characterised by gangsterism, political repression, sex tourism, racial hierarchy and mass poverty.

my social media tl has been very hard to look at latelt given all these things in the game industry being talked about (re: epstein files)… it’s important tho.
either way, the only thing i really feel like posting is this. sharing it makes me feel better.
believe victims. stop vilifying victims.

Feeling particularly overwhelmed today by all the horrors that happen because some people own everything and control whether other people have access to the basic necessities they need to survive.

ohhhhhh okay so what we've learned from the epstein mail drop is that the entirety of the fascistic culture war since the 2010s onward was basically wholesale consolidated through the anglosphere bourgeois old boys club network of pedophile rapists

The wealthy have class solidarity and we'll only beat them when we have it too

I think a network of millionaire and billionaire pedophiles that do sex crimes on a private island should be enough for people to realize “people shouldn’t have vastly more wealth than other people”

We need to talk about the rise of "smol bean fascism" where you have all the guns and the immunity but the really scary people are the ones with whistles and phone cameras and they're giving you generational trauma and ptsd by filming you killing people for no reason

And it's COMING TO STEAM! Wishlist now!

Worth noting that years later, the team that worked on Beast Breaker is now getting revshare from day 1 of this re-release, because it was negotiated by Vodeo Workers United! 🥲

Please support my former coworkers and fellow Vodeo Workers United members! ❤️So happy to see Beast Breaker getting the broader release that it deserves, the team really poured their heart and soul into the game!

a really cool debut from the first unionized game studio in north america. tragic that Vodeo shut down early and never got to make more stuff, but nice to see this get a wider release; well worth checking out!

Beast Breaker meant the world to us~ and now Vodeo Games' first release is coming to Steam!

Enjoy our brick-breaking adventure to take down tyrants with your diverse family (both related & found). Relevant today, relevant always.

Is that my Skipper in 2026?!

Beast Breaker was my first game fresh out of college. So glad to see the long awaited Steam release!

If you're looking for a cute, fast-paced game with amazing art and UI, consider grabbing Beast Break and support my team! 💖

Hey, I wrote for this, you should play it

Another point I'd like to make on the revshare for this release -- this is something we all agreed on when we had to close the studio back in 2022, & that the Vodeo Workers United (yes, we still are all in contact with each other!! 🥹) was able to negotiate with Asher when agreements were sent out. 🖤

✨ SURPRISE ✨

Skipper will be bouncing all the way to Steam later this year!

⚔️ 🐭 💫

One thing that I am really proud of with this release is that the Beast Breaker team will be getting revenue sharing from day 1 of releasing the game on Steam! ☺️

WISHLIST PLEASE 🥹🖤
