100%. The UK indie music scene in the 90s was driven by tastemakers at NME and the labels. Game magazines in the UK and US were at the heart of the AAA scene. Then the App Store teams pushed great games and a golden scene flourished. Early Steam. But It's all gone away and I don't know why.

That's incredibly sad. I discovered John Blanche through his incredible unforgettable work on the Sorcery FF series. When I do draw (which is rarely) I still can't help but channel his twisted visions. What a legacy.

I thought I had mentioned this to you? This is what Little Things uses. Note: to save you a surprise, there is a Godot bug you will encounter. With a VERY LARGE atlas, it can take half an hour to process, during which Godot becomes near unresponsive. Please let me know if you encounter it.

Gemini is horrible for most things. For questions like this try a more specific AI such as Claude.

Google Wallet I couldn't access easily. Had to head in and map it to a button. So I used Samsung Wallet/Pass instead but even it was a poor experience.

The only way I'll ever feel comfortable asking an AI assistant for help is if it happens entirely on my device. I don't want to worry about burning down a forest or polluting a river each time I ask it to add milk to the shopping list.

Matt Hall @matthall.bsky.social · 22/04/2026
Samsung has two assistants: Perplexity and Bixby. Google had Google Assistant and Gemini. None of them were able to add "Milk" to my shopping list. Gemini actually hallucinated adding to a list and when asked for to read out my list gave me nothing. That was the last straw.

I bought a Samsung S26 last month. Using it has been the most miserable tech experience I've had for a decade. Google and Samsung are actively at war fighting over assistants, wallets and shopping lists. Each is actively sabotaging the other. I tried and failed. Bring on the Steam phone.

I spent a little while trying to get Vision Pro to work. It currently only supports 2D and only in 4.5. The export templates are not being built. I tried to build them myself for 4.6, unsuccessfully.

The Steam launch of Little Things has been a little frustrating. 500 wishlists with a 30% conversion is excellent!! But so far I've only had ONE review. 🦉 Little Things needs TEN reviews to get unburied. Did you play it this week? I'd love a review from you if you can spare the time.

I really enjoyed using it for my personal project. But for Hipster Whale we require Apple TV and Vision Pro support. we might have to roll up our sleeves and contribute to the engine.

Great news for our rights! You shouldn't have to brave pepper spray (which I've sadly learned from experience really hurts), physical assault or intimidation from our police force just for wanting to peacefully protest something you believe in.
