Alex Hutchinson @bangbangclick.bsky.social · 02/09/2026If Valve doesn't want to recreate the garbage game led industry crash of the 80s at Atari, they need to have some sort of quality control.

Alex Hutchinson @bangbangclick.bsky.social · 27/07/2026The final season of The Bear is the biggest fall from grace I’ve ever seen on tv. Two seasons were amazing, the next two were confused.

Alex Hutchinson @bangbangclick.bsky.social · 22/07/2026It sucks and they should do better but Nintendo paid the tariff, we just paid a higher price. If we agree to the higher price and pay it then it’s true they don’t us anything legally. Morally maybe another thing. 020

Alex Hutchinson @bangbangclick.bsky.social · 15/07/2026The most foolish part of announcing 'future' layoffs, is that your best people, the people who are most mobile, are the most likely to leave in advance. Even if you weren't going to cut them. So you will lose not only those you fire, but also many of those you wanted to retain. 1121

Alex Hutchinson @bangbangclick.bsky.social · 13/03/2026So 20,000 games were released on Steam, last year. And Valve just released data that only around 5,000 earned even $100,000. Valve takes 30% of that immediately... And then tax on top of that. It means 75% of the games on Steam lost money EVEN IF they were made by solo devs. Which they weren't. 130
