Love this. Congrats to the amazing team behind this game! Was at their offices in Copenhagen today and they seemed … happy.

This level is one of my favorite things in all of video games. Landing the jumps and hits in time with the music is so incredibly satisfying. I go back and play this level every couple of months. It's especially memorable because it's the first video game I played with my daughter.

Stacking was seriously one of my favorite XBLA games. An absolute treasure. And I really loved Headlander, too. I completed both games multiple times. Ergo, I was quite excited to see in this article that the Creative Lead on those games, @leepetty.bsky.social is Creative Lead on Keeper!!!

TIL that on Bluesky people who are, I guess, rude can be auto-flagged as rude and their posts are automatically hidden, even if you follow them. Fine, I guess? But I knew they were rude when I followed them, and I can always unfollow if they're too rude.

Was just unpacking an old box and found my crew jacket from The Game movie, which I hadn’t seen in years. Fincher was opposed to gregarious branding so the only thing tying it to the film was a little logo on the front waist.

It’s wild that in a single WEEK we’re getting Blue Prince, The Oblivion Remaster, and Claire Obscur Expedition 33 on Game Pass. And all three are playable on Consoles, PC, and/or cloud streaming with cross-progression across all of them. As a tech guy and old school gamer, it’s nuts. #Xbox

I have my original copy of this game (I think it was on a CD ROM IIRC? Maybe floppies.) from the 90s deep in a box somewhere. Can't wait to jump into the new port - @nightdivestudios.bsky.social always does excellent work!

Finally watched Joker 2 and I kind of agree with Tarantino's take here, at least partially. It's one of the least enjoyable films I've ever seen and yet I was fascinated by it on several levels. It's incredibly they made a film like this since it's so completely at odds with any possible audience.

In 2025 I wish we could normalize not giving out swag to game industry peers. I just cleaned out a closet and threw away five bags of tchotchkes from various trade shows. I love the sentiment but it’s such a waste of money and the environmental hit is bad.

I can easily get rid of three. You don't need ham if you have turkey. Nobody eats cranberry sauce - it's like people never figured out the joke. And Mac & Cheese why exactly? You're not getting enough carbs already? And replace the potato salad with actual mashed potatoes for the love of God.

We launched our Indie Selects program last January as a way to bring attention to great indie games on Xbox that aren't in Game Pass. We have a new Featured Indies collection each week and then then team votes on our six favs to be our Indie Selects for the month. Here are our selects for November.

This stupid Bomb Cyclone in Seattle keeps nuking my power. Which is a bummer because I'm trying to freakin' load Stalker 2 and I'm trying to get caught up on Animal Well and the Plucky Squire. Guess I'll have to read a book. Oh wait! I have no light. I would walk my dog but he hates the rain. Ugh.

Love that Balatro got nominated for GOTY. The graphics are basic UI. The underlying poker gameplay is as old as the hills. A CCG roguelike is nothing new. And yet it was all put together so well that it became one of the most addictive games I've ever played.

I was super busy and missed Fear the Spotlight, which I think is the first Blumhouse Games release, when it launched, but got to check it out this weekend. Great game! I know it's a busy time of year, but find a few hours for this. First come first served: DQTH7-WVF26-MP3H7-TV2MY-FFRKZ

Great episode. I read this book in the 90s and thought the humans stuck in the maze parable kind of reminded me of Sartre's "No Exit" except with Sartre's theme of "Hell is other people" being replaced with "It's great to be laid off!" It was really one of the dumbest things I've ever read.

Been to 3 Olympic events and they all do the same thing with drinks: they pull a plastic bottle out of the cooler, open it and then pour it into a “collector’s” cup that they charge 2 euro for. HUGE waste of plastic and also takes forever, making the lines super slow. Super dumb way to charge more.
