Today, Giacomo ( @giacomo.7thbe.at ) from Rhythm Doctor ( @rd.7thbe.at ) visited my café! Last year, Hafiz ( @fizzd.bsky.social ) came by too. I never imagined I'd get to meet both of them. My English isn't great, but we talked, laughed, and had a wonderful time together!

Rasheed is literally risking his life for this game. Israelis could decide to capture, torture, or murder him at any point for daring to share the truth of the Nakba or Palestinian culture. He truly believes in games and their power to tell these stories. Please help his courage not be in vain.

My mom co-organized a series of first-hand interviews with Palestinians done in Gaza after October 2023. It got published by Haymarket last year: www.goodreads.com/book/show/22...
Displaced In Gaza bookExcerpts from the book. “Haitham left before noon. I went out searching for him and found him lying on the ground being eaten by cats. I couldn’t bury him on the first day of his martyrdom due to Israeli shelling.” “Wherever we go, we are pursued by shelling.” “The day I return to my house and the day I visit my husband’s grave will be the best days of my life.” “We want to return to our homes and live on the ruins of our destroyed houses.” “We line up in long queues to enter bathrooms with no water.” “We couldn’t find enough space in the cemetery to bury my mother, so we dug up my grandmother’s grave and buried my mother in the same grave.” “Under normal circumstances, my family’s daily water requirement is about 20 liters per person. Today, I share 20 liters of water among 23 family members.” “Quadcopter drones roamed inside the school and fired at anyone moving.” [Given that quadcopters are triggered by motion and sound, imagine trying to keep your baby quiet said one father, who saw a quadcopter kill a dog on the street outside his apartment building.] “Since the martyrdom of my family…” “We suffer from many harmful insects and other animals in and around the tents, including scorpions, snakes, flies, and mosquitos.”

up to that point you have been scrounging for food to fill your ever-depleting hunger meter, and at any point you may be forced to reload an earlier save, so getting this could save your whole run and make life a lot easier. very different feelings for the same idea of 'an optional hard challenge'

Cairn teaches me about the kinds of game design im not experienced with, of long term risks and rewards. In Celeste you collect strawberry for fun as an extra challenge, in Cairn you see a backpack with a honey dipper in a difficult detour, and you want it because

('we' being the programmers led by Giacomo, not me haha, i would let him give the full talk of the window dance architecture)

Hafiz Azman @fizzd.bsky.social · 22/03/2026
I'd never have thought its possible to set the window position 60 times a second and have that be performant enough to actually get smooth animations. Exsch's chart also achieves multiwindow illusion by strobing between two positions every frame. Which ofc leads to 'can we do this for real..?'

Hafiz Azman @fizzd.bsky.social · 22/03/2026
This video expresses everything we've been going for wonderfully (and it was a delight to learn about the other two). And every time window dance is brought up I want to shoutout @taronuke.net who did it first in NotITG and inspired us!! Example Exschwasion's chart: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MOA...
