I've played Big Walk by @househouse.com with a couple friend groups, now. What a special game. If you've played, what did your group call the item you need to collect? We called them doingles.

Playing Final Fantasy I for the first time via the Pixel Remaster. The Buccaneer sure has some thighs (alas, they do not save lives). And I am amused the Troll looks like it has a big headache. 😂

A troll from Final Fantasy I. Green body, pink hair. It looks like they have a really bad headache.

A Buccaneer from Final Fantasy I. They are mostly blue but have very prominent thighs.

Finished is better than terrible #oldknees

A crow kicks a small ball of snow. They then start rolling it into a larger ball while saying "trust the process...". They kick more snow into a pile and stick a branch in repeating "trust the process" to itself. They place small stones. They say "Phew!" and stand back to look at its creation, which we see now is a mess of a project that looks somewhat like a melted bird. The final panel the crow says "haha it's terrible".

Screenshot from the video game Final Fantasy XIV wherein my character is wearing a Halloween glamour where I put on a big white sheet with a static, painted facial expression. There is a small glowing jack o'lantern on top of my head, too.

The @remedygames.com internal code name for Alan Wake 2 was ”Big Fish”. I think David Lynch is swimming with the big fish now. Rest in peace. His influence goes far and wide and will live on.

What we found was one of the very worst examples of workplace abuse in the history of this industry. That may sound hyperbolic. I really don't think it is. Here's our investigation: www.youtube.com/watch?v=RR9H... (5/7)

Back in 2021, PMG reported on the unseen games industry crunch taking place at outsourcing studios in SE Asia. Since then, the companies we looked at have continued to work on some of the biggest games in the world, without any push to improve the conditions of the artists doing that work. (1/7)

Bought some strawberries at the farmers’ market this morning, some of which I turned into David Lebovitz’s strawberry sour cream ice cream, which is so yummy and full of strawberry flavor. Also made a fresh loaf of King Arthur Baking’s sandwich bread for the week.

Finished a sweater! This is Saga’s Sweater from Alan Wake II. Remedy, the developer, published a knitting guide for it in 2023, so I decided to make it. It’s been rainy here so it took 2 days to dry. 😂
