Happy NAIDOC 🖤 we're out here making games. I had a really lovely chat about making a rhythm game that honours Country, and working with Wali Studios on Wyrmspace Tactics.

For the sane individuals who see this - Vidmaster in season 1 of Marathon is probably the most punishing chase anyone has been asked to commit to in video games

Unc Raiders is secretly an MMO dressed up with an extraction shooter gameplay loop, way nicer to spend time in, chill with friends, experience some spontaneous social oddities and feel the bitter sting of betrayal.

I've definitely had some of those "oh my god I'm so sorry... Shhh shhh it'll be okay, just go to sleep" moments 😅 Some Rooks definitely deserved it though

If you're particularly evil, claymore the guarded exfil on Dire Marsh, other Rooks don't see it coming and you just soak up their loot I'd never do that, Rooks strong together... but when the need arises...

Head to the PVP hotspots right away (hauler, algae ponds, flight control) then scoop up the remains of the battle royale that happens for the first 10 minutes before legging it straight to the guarded exfil

It’s so revealing how the attempted bombing isn’t bigger news in the Australian media cycle. It’s so clear how it matters less if the attacker is white and the intended victims primarily Aboriginal. The hierarchy of racism in Australia is so transparent www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01...
