I don't know why, but stumbling across this Steam review made me laugh.

This comment made me absolutely crying with laughter.

Trek And Conn, it's the Star Trek mod for #DeckAndConn that was completely inevitable. Hoping to have it out by the weekend. Just got a couple more backgrounds to tweak.

A quick post about something you’d enjoy—one of our listeners, Nick Wheeler, emailed us a copy of this game he created. We played at Dragoncon and it was a BLAST. Everyone got involved, including our kids! Grab a copy here: ciriusnjw.itch.io/technobabble #Technobabble #StarshipTempest #PartyGame

Time for a glass of whisky and an evening patrol with #DeckAndConn

I'd better be able to recreate this in #NoMansSky #Cosmos, or I'll be cross.

Wondered what happened to that one - Was a nice little teaser demo you put out.

@elissablack.com Are the torpedo graphics code generated? I can't seem to find them in the graphics files. Admittedly, they are very small, so I might just be missing them...

Loved the idea and story, but never meshed with the puzzles. Definitely one to play with a walkthrough, I feel.

Theropods - OUT NOW @losttoken.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

Ten years ago, it started with a game jam. Since then, we've poured all of our love and craft into every single pixel. Now, it's finally here: a wordless point-and-click adventure in a prehistoric world full of dinosaurs. Theropods launches August 20th!🦕

Forgive me lord, for I have created a Tribble mod for #Rimworld

Crew uniforms have been completed... As long as you're male... And not too skinny...or too fat... Ok, but it's a start! #Rimworld #StarTrek

I have badly fallen down the #Rimworld modding rabbit hole now. Star Trek TOS total conversion, here we come...

God help me, for I have begun my inevitable descent into #Rimworld modding. A Class F #StarTrek TOS era Shuttlecraft in progress.

Why, yes, I do love the original Microprose XCOM games...how did you know? #Invasion53

A flying saucer sits in a farmyard at night, looking somewhat reminiscent of an old XCOM game.

A wonderful amount of posts in my feed are now just joke Star Trek title screens. I clearly follow the right people.

Great to hear things are ok with you. Don't be disheartened if you dip - it's all a journey. All the best.

Nick Wheeler @nwheeler.bsky.social · 22/03/2026

Right there with you. Count the small victories where you can. Even if all you achieve one day is getting up and dressed, it's still better than nothing. Even if you have a bad day, it's not a failure. I find art helps, even if it's just a small sketch, or painting a miniature, All the best.

Nick Wheeler @nwheeler.bsky.social · 22/03/2026

Just an FYI - your main itch page shows as unavailable in the UK. Your games oddly, are still accessible by direct link, but I just thought I'd let you know as I think you can appeal.

What a great vid. I am however concerned about how many of these ads I recognised.

After several weeks messing around in Unity, I'm beginning to actually like what I've been putting together. #Invasion53

Sales season is officially over! But a reminder that you don't need money to be overwhelmed with cool PC games. I still need to catch up on updating it, but my big list of Cool Free PC Games is ever-expanding, now featuring the massive & rad Quake Brutalist Jam 3, which is surprisingly standalone.

Such an ambitious game - Whenever I think he's done with it another update appears. The time travel simulation is also absolutely magical bonkers.

Nick Wheeler @nwheeler.bsky.social · 29/12/2025

Honestly it's such a great set. If you get the chance it's definitely worth grabbing.

Happy holidays to the creators of my daughter's favourite game. We both can't wait for full release.

Nick Wheeler @nwheeler.bsky.social · 15/12/2025

That was my immediate thought. Still suspect we might see a Myrka, but I have a funny feeling it'll look a little different than the last time we saw it...

Happy anniversary! As one of your several podcast listeners, I raise a glass in your general direction.
