Ace Combat 8
The "Lad's Life" picture of a guy hitting lobsters with a stick. An A-10 is superimposed over his face, his hand is holding an Unguided Bomb, and the lobsters have all been superimposed with the hated Land Battleship

the first game i worked on extensively, "An Outcry", is on sale at a low 50% off with the Steam autumn sale! it's got those autumn-night colors, takes place in october, and has some jack-o-lantern type birds! (don't worry about the birds.) store.steampowered.com/app/1817470/...
A flurry of silhouetted cars with red taillights, bumper on bumper, streaming down a busy road. On the left of the road is a tall building - a subway station - built by Otto Wagner. On the right, there is an apartment  building, and a tiny person in purple. There is text at the top, which reads: "The Vienna city belt."A rotten, soot-covered political poster for a political party called "AFP", in front of the Austrian flag. The candidate's face is scratched and burnt away. Text at the top reads, decoding the poster: "'We will not be silence!' (Our crimes should go unpunished.)A man-sized, raven-like being with a black mask and glowing, burning insides, opening its beak and jovially holding up a beer-bottle while smoking a cigarette. A textbox at the bottom of the screen, spoken by this being, reads: "settle down among your kin, have a drink, kid, settle in!"The courtyard of a Vienna apartment building, covered in grey birds with glowing orange eyes. Most of the screen is bathed in darkness; only a spotlight shines on the person who emerged out into it, a bald person with a bandage around their head and a black censor bar over their eyes. Text at the bottom of the screen reads: "Your curtain may be calling. Breathe, unnamed. Know what you have to do."

"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!

I and a good number of very talented game devs were laid off by Obsidian as part of the Microsoft sacrificial rituals this morning. If you or anyone you know is looking for a Senior Writer/ND with more than two decades' experience in titles like Dragon Age and Mass Effect, please let me know!

So many amazing, wonderful people - and me - were laid off today. All of them deserve the world and I hope they get back on their feet soon. As for me? I suppose I'm open for work once the shock wears off.

Working on some new fish behaviors! They now school more strongly when idly exploring. They can also line up a jump and breach the surface if there's something interesting up there.

Personal milestone: After ten years as an Amazon top-seller, my book "Why? 1,111 Answers to Everything" just received its 15,000th review, overwhelmingly positive except for a few gripes about too many references to evolution in a science-facts book published by National Geographic.

엊그저께 졸업작품 전시를 마지막으로 급한 불을 전부 소각시켰습니다. 이제 개발 (학교) 말고 다시 개발 (게임) 해야지요...?🤠 \ With end of my graduation project exhibition few days ago, think I'm mostly done with urgent ones. Time to get programming (the game) instead of programming (at campus) ... messed up (seen below. WIP english patch)

Yes, that's me, my chaotic flower cherub that I persuaded to follow me and my 137 clockwork beetle friends. Please help, the game is running so slow now
A screenshot from Caves of Qud. It depicts my character, surrounded by 137 clockwork beetles in different states of staining and a chaotic flower cherub. There's also a iittle pool of saltwater to the right, in a typical manner for the salt marshes

so the reason why I've been mostly silent is that I recently was able to convince / beg professor to use my current game project as a thesis / graduation project. been also preparing for pixel art exhibition & turning my decade old laptop into server. but felt like that'd be boring news
