It’s all Joel Bylos (our creative director), but the spice dreams are definitely the result of the disturbed mind of @joshuadoetsch.bsky.social 🖤

Slowly getting back into drawing, I think I’ll try posting more often to hold myself accountable by pretending people will notice if I slack off, so here’s the beginning of a little thing that I’m somewhat happy with

The scythe is mightier than Le Pen

Lorelei and the Laser Eyes was maybe my favorite game to play this year. It's also proof that you can make a game that's a love letter to cinema without turning it into a vaguely interactive and mostly linear "prestige" cinematic experience. Games don't have to be movies to be culturally relevant.

Dreams on a Pillow - a videogame experience about the 1948 Nakba, based on a true story | LaunchGood A pseudo-3D stealth adventure game about a land full of people being made into a people without land

After years away from game dev, I couldn’t stay silent about my people’s dehumanization. I made Dreams on a Pillow 🍉a game inspired by a famous Palestinian folktale about the 1948 Nakba.

I’m crowdfunding it now—please back & share!

I think I fixed the issue, could you maybe give it another try? 🙏

I’m a ghost in the system

I’m not veeery active, but I’d like to be part of the cool kids club too ✨

and if you want to do narrative social simulation design and can’t program, grab NRAAS story progression for Sims 3, decide the kinds of stories you want to see, and fiddle with a bunch of the mod settings to see if you can get them to occur

I cyclically ask myself the same question too. And I cyclically come to the conclusion that I don’t think it’s worth the time and money if you’re in a good place already… until I start wondering again next season
