We've been lulled into a false sense of security by the relatively mild past two to three years and lots of La Ninas, but we're in for a dramatic shock how much the planet has kept warming underneath all those dampeners. I worry about the coming El Nino summer in Australia.

I really like what this team is doing. Litigate the murder of a river by wielding rhetoric against those that benefit from watching it all burn. Gameplay has me feeling like a brilliant lawyer in a dramatic courtroom drama with the highest of stakes. I'd love to see what they can do when funded:

I won't link/cap my last repost as the author has reposts turned off. He's correct and also the topic of "can fiction influence attitudes?" is fun, complex and nuanced. There's research on it! Unsurprisingly the answer isn't simply no or yes, neither zero nor 'too much" social power & responsibility

I'll be on a panel both days of @conpulsion.bsky.social in Edinburgh April 12th/13th discussing the state of the game industry, equipped with (I'd argue) justified optimism. Come play games, meet game makers and artists, hear cool talks, and support charity partner www.emptykitchens.co.uk

Thanks to everyone who came to our GDC workshop last Tuesday, and to all the other inspiring speakers, colleagues, friends, and game devs I got to chat to. It's nice to end a week more energized than when I started it.
