From my experience sending press releases as a translator, I want to tell all indie game developers to consider the day you implement languages as a "second launch day" For non-English speaking gamers, the addition of their native language can feel just a new game release. #indiegame #indiegamedev

Received an email informing me of the AI-generated podcast about the master's thesis I wrote 7 years ago. Of course created without my consent, and of course kinda cringe; but still weirdly entertaining to listen to. The 'speaker' was mind-blown; at last some enthusiasm for my theoretical work!👍🤖

Alan Moore from a new interview. alanmooreworld.blogspot.com/2025/05/long...
"If we wish to have an inhabitable future for us and our children and their children, then might I quietly suggest we stop electing and tolerating obvious fascist buffoons because we think they're entertaining characters, as if they were housemates on Big Brother. This isn't reality TV. This is reality, or what's left of it. Let us instead protest and rail at these dribbling Nazi idiots to our last breath, rather than beam stupidly as Elon Musk 'sends his heart out to us' Nuremberg style. Let us point out that they are suicidal cretins when they insist that climate change is a Chinese hoax. Let us not give these witless fuckers an inch."

So Trump just slapped a 100% tariff on films 'made in foreign lands', seeing them as a 'National Security threat'? 🎬 Wonder how long until he starts throwing tariffs on 'foreign pixels'. 🎮💼 #filmindustry #Hollywood #gamesindustry #films #games #tarrifs #Trump

An atmospheric, ethereal piece with minimal interaction with the environment. Reminded me of interactive experiences one might find in a museum, in terms of it demanding your attention, requiring you to follow its pace and with a confidence and ability to hypnotise & pull you deep into it.

The environments you are walking through are breathtaking, and stumbling and gliding among them was a super interesting experience.

Hey, want to know what marketing really is? Making it as easy as possible for people to know what your thing is and that it exists. Bonus points for if you can help them understand why they might want it. Marketing people reduce the friction that keeps this from happening.
