I've been playtesting this the last couple of days and some of the last tweaks being made to the balance and loop hit hard 🧡 Please add it to your wishlist now and get it on the 14th, it's the best way to support our studio right now and encourage us to to try more of these little experiments

Let me tell you a little bit about our Double Fine community. They're really nice. When I tell other game developers part of my job is support they tell me they don't envy my job, going through all those messages. It's not like how they imagine. People are patient and understanding.

It's Giants vs Dodgers as I leave SF today, and based purely on the names I think the Dodgers may have an easy time evading the Giants but their relatively low STR and DEF stats might still leave them vulnerable

Haha that's so true one of my favourite awkward Ayoade moments is when he endorsed that Linehan book. Classic

The two foddyesque control mechanisms are: You're controlling an unfamiliar thing in a way that requires a unique control scheme, or You're controlling something familiar in an unfamiliar way The key to all these is that they have a consistent internal logic.

A really gratifying thing about this Amnesia Fortnight is how willing the team has been to give my design thoughts serious consideration despite that not being my main job on the project or even remotely my job at DF in general.

Picked this up on a lazy Sunday since I only brought my Playdate to SF and it's Good Actually. Excellent sound design, and the visuals use the limitations of the Playdate to creepy effect

It's wild how much of the genAi industry's pitch is just nakedly "hey what if everything was bad, just a complete hellscape" and the people go "listen, I don't love it either but you better jump on the train to badsville right now or get left behind"

So remember that thing I said about how the only reason that LLM companies have got away with a fair use defense of its training data is that they use a flurry of jargon to talk around a kind of usage that anyone else would have to pay for?

Being in SF during Dreamforce but not here for Dreamforce is sort of Pluribus but sales teams and AI bros

To give a sense of how far ahead this release date is, think of it like this: if it were releasing today, many of you reading this wouldn't have even been born when it was announced

040

Peter Silk / KestrelPi @kestrelpi.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

I've decided it's not allowed to announce a release year more than 18 months in advance. If it won't come out before that you can still announce the game but you have to say "Coming in like a billion years"

Phew, well a little delayed but still on my way to San Francisco. I love that I get to be there, in the office just a little bit. This last year has been exciting and scary and those two things over and over again in various mixtures and so I knew I had to be there for Amnesia Fortnight.

I fell asleep. Either we've taken off or we've been waiting so long it's unloaded the textures outside

Plane is stuck on the taxiway while Heathrow experiences IT problems. 2 hours since we were supposed to take off. If they take us off this plane... well, I could do without it 😞

Tonight We Feast didn't quite make it to Amnesia Fortnight but, I heard, was one of the runners up in the voting. Thanks, everyone who supported my pitch! Still flying out tomorrow to take part and looking forward to all the fun :)

Last day of backer voting before the 4 prototypes for Amnesia Fortnight are decided! I'm packing for San Francisco, not yet knowing for sure what kind of fortnight I'm in for... There's still some time to help decide that by voting for Tonight We Feast! Here's me and Tim talking about the pitch:

I love that we've done this, and I hope it opens the way for us to work on more smaller experiments. Amazed by what's been accomplished in a very short time and still so very Double Fine flavoured

I think it's pretty rad how trans women aren't "biological" apparently, they have transcended to some form of technofemale whose capabilities we can only guess

Ok how about this. If you ever liked this tweet I did and you back the Double Fine Kickstarter, if my pitch (Tonight We Feast!) is one of the winners picked on Sunday, I will try to persuade the team to include a feature where the 3 animals can briefly disguise themselves in a single trenchcoat

We have Noir mode and Psychedelic mode in Keeper now. I said this should be a slider between the two with normal mode in the middle but they said this was "hard" or something. Cuh, programmers, eh?

I think that Wittgenstein's assertion that philosophical problems primarily arise from the confusion of imposing precision onto fuzzy and vague linguistic convention is so obviously correct. And the reason more philosophers don't subscribe to it is that it sort of spoils a lot of their fun.

Peter Silk / KestrelPi @kestrelpi.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

I didn't work directly on Kiln so I can say it. Kiln is great actually and this update makes it better and, I think, MUCH better priced for the kind of game it is. It's now more game for less money! I'm really glad we got to do this, and it's not the last of what we want to do with it.

Honestly, and no shade towards people who worked hard on it, never been so sick of hearing about a game months before it will be released. I haven't even said the name and you know which one. I'm not planning on buying it so I feel I've lost all perspective. Are people enjoying this?
