Thanks! It wasn’t originally planned; the real life cat didn’t enjoy walks in the backpack so the backpack was sitting abandoned on a shelf. When the Stray plushie arrived I was trying to decide where to display it & saw the cat backpack. Turned out well as the bag stops the plushies getting dusty.

Would really love to play it, but I don’t use Steam. Is there any chance of a Switch or Switch 2 port some day?

Loved the puzzles in the Overworld the best. I was never able to finish the actual lair. I did once manage to fail with 47 bees and Laylee still left, because I somehow got bounced above the horizontal green cannon near the start which instantly ended my run despite most of my bee shield remaining.

My “Little Kitty, Big City” plushie finally arrived to keep my “Stray” plushie company. @fangamer.com @littlekittybigcity.bsky.social
Two Fangamer plush toy cats inside a green cat-carrier backpack with a large clear plastic window. The plush on the left is the orange cat from the game “Stray”, wearing a black harness with white trim and badges, and with a plush B-12 robot sitting in front of the cat. The plush on the right is the black cat from the game “Little Kitty, Big City” wearing a red apple hat pushed back around its neck and a red collar with a gold fish tag, holding a blue fish bone plush in its mouth, and with a green froggy hat sitting in front of it. On the outside top left of the backpack is a pink Zurk plush with a large yellow eye.

Melbourne had another earthquake around 2am on October 3rd 2026, so it’s time to drag out the old meme.

@playtonicgames.com, you somehow predicted this grim reality of GenAI companies trying to collect and convert all the world’s books to profit when you came up with the story for Yooka-Laylee back in 2015 or so. Even more creepy because the company in this story considers itself like a bee hive.

I was happy to hear a physical Switch 2 version of the game is coming, until I found out it’s a crappy Game Key Card. 😑 Why would you do that? So many more people would have bought it if it was actually the full game on cartridge.

I mean this genuinely, GenAI is a deal breaker. I don't care where you used it. If you are purposefully using it, I don't want it. If you are using it, you should have no problem telling people you used it.

In Australia our covers also get ruined by the massive rating label.
The foil cover for the upcoming Switch 2 version of “The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time”, showing the artwork of Link standing in the forest looking back over his shoulder towards the audience. In the bottom left corner taking up almost half the width of the cover is a giant rectangular ratings label with half the rectangle taken up by the letters “PG” on a yellow background, and the other half with the words “Mild threat and violence” on a white background. The rating label is so long that it covers Link’s left foot.

At least they can’t ruin your old DS games! No one has actually announced a new Banjo-Kazooie game yet, it’s just something I’ve been wanting for decades. But now that so much new stuff has slop, I’m not getting my hopes up even if a new Banjo game is ever announced unless they guarantee no slop.

Shannon @switch-shannon.bsky.social · 10/09/2026
No we can’t, they’re ruining everything! 🙁 I’m sorry, it’s so disheartening when it’s a game you’ve been looking forward to. (It’s why I no longer care about a new Banjo-Kazooie game being made, because chances are if a new one is made, it will have slop in it, too).

Be cautious, as I’ve heard rumours that the studio are now using generative AI. Not sure if it was used for this game or not, though. Probably worth looking into if it’s something that you factor into when buying a game or not.

I’m from Australia and went on a Lord of the Rings location shoot tour in New Zealand which included a sit down lunch. Was sat on a table with an American couple who looked in their late 50s or 60s, and they genuinely asked us if we celebrate Thanksgiving in Australia.

I wonder if the character he was going to play was always called “A. B. Wynter”, or if they changed the first part to be the initials “A. B.” as a tribute to André Braugher after he died?

They’re so cute! In between working on your game and birdwatching, if you ever need a way to relax, I highly recommend watching the show “The Residence”. The main character’s special interest is birds, and she uses bird behaviour to help her solve the mystery. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Res...
