A year ago @juno.luckyraven.cc and I announced we started a new project. Today I'd like to follow up on that and formally announce Lucky Ravens, our four-player digital boardgame crossover project featuring our all-star luckyraven.cc lineup and friends! Build a deck, roll the dice & go for the gold!

Four colorful characters reach for a gold coin on a video game title screen set against a rainbow in the background. The name "Lucky Ravens" appears in the upper right corner.

A screenshot of a colorful game board. A purple-haired fox character is being prompted to roll a d6 for movement.

A shot of a different boardgame board. A waitress shares a tile with a Greature, and is prompted to either fight him or pass by peacefully.

A battle screen set against a neon sci-fi background. A salvage operator with a knife approaches an orange-haired fox readying a defensive stance with her katana.

microsoft is going to announce a new AI powered xbox. the AI features suck and no one wants them. it takes up 20% of the processing power of the box even when it's not on. double fine will be the only company to make anything good with it, and their game will sell 17 copies.

Okay, it's time. I have a prized Cult of the dead cow Zippo lighter. These simply do not exist anywhere. But a CDC member is hurting and I want to encourage donations to the GoFundMe, so out it goes. Details in thread.

internally debating whether the bug i'm investigating is more like a beautiful set of russian nesting dolls filled with wasps, or the lament configuration from hellraiser. this is more enjoyable than investigating the issue.

This is an insane thing to write about game development. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/28/a...

Most experts acknowledge that a takeover by artificial intelligence is coming for the video game industry within the next five years, and executives have already started preparing to restructure their companies in anticipation.
After all, it was one of the first sectors to deploy A.I. programming in the 1980s, with the four ghosts who chase Pac-Man each responding differently to the player's real-time movements.

Hey folks. I was laid off in September and I have yet to find a job to replace it. I had been looking at the games industry, but I *NEED* to find something. Anything. I have 5 years of QA experience, 5 years of retail, and 7 years of hospitality experience with training others at all of those.

after days of grifters and con men at CES we stumbled upon the booth for VLC. they were all dressed as wizards and told us, "we have nothing to sell, we just decided to show up". i told them I'd been using their software to pirate media for 15 years and they said "keep doing that"

jsola @jso.la · 04/12/2024

there weren't a lot of standalone albums that caught me this year so my spotify wrapped is a lot the songs that their algorithm decided to keep feeding me unfortunately. outside of singles, the Undertale Soundtrack won out yet again by being my kid's favorite car album. and, frankly, well deserved.
