If anyone ever walks into a meeting after things have been decided and says -I have this idea, I was watching this TV show last night… You should be able to kill them. Not metaphorically… just tell the cops and they’ll agree. Justifialble.

Dick Slater is back in Massacre At The Mirage 2 with brand new models! Dick is a little older but still hard as a rock. 😏 Check out his new and classic look. I can say this with complete confidence. Dick has never looked this good!😎🤘 #indiegame #indiegamedev #PSX

Another location from the first Massacre At The Mirage, remade for part 2. The Toot Radio station! Or what's left of it. I don't plan to explore the inside as I do with the Mirage, but I wanted to match the exterior as closely as possible for the scenes I have planned. #indiegame #indiegamedev

I'm really loving the Lanterns show. They trust the audience and don't dumb down the plot or stop using any subtext. I love that they wrote genuinely complex characters who feel like people rather than plot devices. I was getting tired of the whole Thanos-like, surface-level-complex villain trend.

The Mirage has seen better days. A little peek at what's left of The Mirage in the aftermath of Manny's visit. Completely remade in my grindhouse PSX style. You will visit the Mirage in part 2, but it won't be a main location. More of a nod to part 1 and its story. #indiegame #indiegamedev #PSX

Watching a video where someone is claiming a $35 cozy game is a failure because it's concurrent player numbers dropped 6 weeks after launch... We are so fucked in how people perceive games, their value, and expectations. It's not stardew valley numbers!?!! Well then it must be a piece of shit...

Both Dolly Parton and Tim Curry had such a genuine enthusiasm for performing that it was impossible not to love them for it, there were things more highly and lowly regarded in their bodies of work but both of them threw themselves into everything because it was pure joy for them and that rules

I'd rather complain about AI than people's yums. All the physical labor work I did/do are at my own pace since I don't do them professionally. Once it becomes a job, it can be hell. Not everyone works in Coal Mines, but a game of it can still be appealing when done right.

sbNewsom @sbnewsom.com · 25/08/2026

The only workplace that is truly unappealing is clerical jobs or any office work. And in your defense, the organizing game genre lands squarely in that area, though the appeal seems to be those with ADHD. Trust me, I get what you're saying. Had to stop watching John Wolfe play it. ZZzzzzzzz

Because it’s fun for those that don’t have it as an actual job. The difference between a job and a hobby is you aren’t beaten down for enjoying it. Why play a super difficult soulslike if it’s essentially a literal job with a boss that lords over you.

No no no. Its that easy if you ignore their need for you and me to perpetuate hustle culture, the need to have class hierarchy, and to keep us in a financial position where if we step out of line, you'll lose EVERYTHING. Safety nets would cause dissent and bring true freedom. Can't have that.

Just like the Shader book, I'll happily get the VFX too. Pretty much forced myself to go all in on learning Godot. Now VFX and AI are the last things I need to learn, and having this would round things out nicely. :)

Hard disagree. It’s not about press coverage but it’s about discussion and algorithms If you launch the same day or week even, any messaging you do even to your own audience is battling the gta6 attention This isn’t about sharing player bases but how modern media works and your ability to spread

I don’t watch or follow him, but this sort of work he’s doing is definitely giving himself some points. This game though is definitely deserving the love from the community. Campy, hilarious but also perfectly encapsulating 80s slasher perfectly in game form.
