Phillip M Jackson @jollyjack.bsky.social · 22/09/2026The modern gaming community is calling it "The Rise of the Indies". It's more of a "return". This is what it was like in the 80s and 90s: "Bedroom Coders" making weird and wonderful little games, with the most successful becoming the big names/companies of later decades. 1728439

Phillip M Jackson @jollyjack.bsky.social · 21/09/2026"including one that reportedly showed the comedy duo satirising racism while in blackface" "reportedly"? The BBC takes "being PC" to the absurd. It won't even LOOK at its OWN content. The entire POINT of that sketch was to MOCK racist behaviour. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...bbc.co.ukBBC removes 11 Mitchell and Webb comedy sketches from iPlayerThe corporation said it had included "the ones that still work today and not the ones that don't." 912020

Phillip M Jackson @jollyjack.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Fear that AI will cost you your job is entirely legitimate. I understand THAT completely. Saying that the existence of AI is sapping your motivation to be creative in general, however, is neurotic bullsh*t. Get a grip. The DESIRE to be creative isn't something taken away, its something you give up. 1236890

Phillip M Jackson @jollyjack.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Cheapo paperbacks that contain lots of bite sized bits of information are a secret tool to avoid creative blocks: zillions of little story kernels, character ideas, plot twists and MacGuffins. Details and facts come from further reading. These provide the SPARK of inspiration. 617325

Phillip M Jackson @jollyjack.bsky.social · 01/09/2026One of the best books I've ever read on the process of writing/editing. I've been putting pen to paper for decades, but this book provided a very useful mental reset of how to go about it. Well worth a place on your shelf. 631563

The version that I will eventually play, years from now, when its bugs have been fixed and it's a reasonable price, will be very different to whatever footage they're currently using to hype it up. 1419513
