This all just sucks. I am so sorry.

Patrick Wren @witdarkstar.bsky.social · 25/06/2026

My thoughts go out to all the amazing, talented people affected at Bungie today. You all poured your hearts and souls into your job. This is not your fault. You went above and beyond doing what you were told and how you were led.

I am so sorry Beth. I had no idea. I hope you get picked up soon.

I’m convinced movie reviewers don’t like fun sometimes. Super Mario Galaxy is just a joyful movie, especially as a Mario and Nintendo fan. It’s a solid 7/10 movies and that’s ok. Not everything has to be a masterpiece.

Made it home at 2am. I’m exhausted.

Taking the train home from my parents and apparent a train heading south hit someone. So now I’m stuck in Olympia for what could be an hour or 5 hours. Or longer. It’s going to be a long night.

If you've been waiting for the next great, XCOM-style tactics experience, Star Wars Zero Company is that and more: Lovers of Mass Effect and the Clone Wars animated series will be eating good here.

Star Wars Zero Company is more than just 'Star Wars XCOM'—it feels like Mass Effect but with turn-based tactics and permadeath

This Clone Wars tactics game from former XCOM devs may end up 2026's biggest surprise.

I think the worst thing about "AI" development is that all the AI bros are so convinced that what they are making everyone else wants, and they keep shoving it on all of us. Then they are surprised when people don't like it.

It has been wild seeing people play a game I worked on over 10 years ago. It's been amazing and sad at the same time. But overall, I am grateful people at least get to play a slice of what could have been. www.youtube.com/watch?v=unhC...

This is amazing! I haven't had a chance to see the TV show so I am excited to watch it on Dropout!

RE Bluepoint: Having a studio that is expert at remakes, working for a publisher with an insanely deep backlog of beloved classics, was always a recipe for printing money at a steady cadence. Leave them alone and they print money forever, little or no opportunity cost. Come the fuck on

I read what @kaieta.bsky.social wrote of what reminds her, and this made me think of those moments. The fact someone put the effot into this joke to follow you across jobs, countries, and continents means you aren't a fraud.

I realized I haven’t posted any photos of Cocoa settling in after we got him. So enjoy some overdue kitty photos.

It’s hard to process this right now. He was such a force in the industry and for him to be just gone I still can’t believe.

It’s wild that My Hero Academia has come to a close. It’s been quite the journey watching this show. Lots of great memories sharing watch parties with friends.

Played Dispatch over the small break, and what a fantastic game. The writing is so sharp, and I loved every second of it.

This is the craziest purchase and chance I have ever taken on a Pokemon card. I found this in the yellow sticker section at a card shop, but it still looked great, so I bought it and got it graded. I was hoping for an 8, but the fact that it still got a 7 is fantastic!

Thank you!!! It’s funny we weren’t planning on getting a void kitty, but he chose us.

Oh. We got a new little furry member of the family. Meet Cocoa.

I’m not on Bluesky as much and wanted to say congrats! I have installed and ready to play once I find time haha.

Right? I’m like I haven’t been in the industry that long right? Looks at time. Oh. And thanks so much!

I am super proud of working on this game and shipping it 10 years ago as my first game. I learned so much, met some great people, and was able to push my skills in a way I never had before. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNOS...
