Here’s something players don’t know about game development. When you’re hearing music in the game, that’s not an audio file. Theres actually an orchestra made of NPCs that follows the player just out of view of the camera. They actually play instruments, we recreate the audio physics and everything

I don’t know where else to point out that Marvel spoofing Masterclass was already expertly done by @theryangeorge.bsky.social, several years ago, with a video series that would spoof both Marvel and Masterclass in one fell swoop. Not even complaining, just wanted to mention it lol

A dear friend asked me to play her down the aisle with this masterpiece from Pride and Prejudice by Dario Marianelli - just over one minute of music, but each note speaks uniquely, and I hope I've done it some semblance of justice.

I expect that Aus media *will* cover Silksong—but in the way culture writing happens in 2025. SatPaper will do a review. ABC will do a detailed feature cut to 800 words for news. The Guardian, a profile and syndicated review. That's probably it, because that is all that is possible anywhere anymore.
