Still looking for someone, haven't found a single person so far (that I can contact). I have a 46-episode script that I need translated. This would be a paid job!

Sena Bryer @senabryer.com · 10d

Completely unrelated to my 2am doomposting but does anyone know an English to Japanese translator, ideally with experience in screenplays?

I still need to play Arco, but I've played a good bit of that Enigma of Fear and it's damn good. Very neat bundle, and I rarely recommend bundles.

Got the demo for Menace downloaded and ready to go for when I've got the time, very intrigued by this one, it's from the developers of Battle Brothers and it's being published by Hooded Horse, who really seem to be knocking it out of the park lately when it comes to strategy games.

John Oliver is what liberals imagine Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert to be — a genuine critic of America’s systemic failures who stands up for trans people and other marginalized groups, while actually offering real actions and hopeful solutions.

hell yeah!

my game's demo is kind of just... the whole game? minus some bonus post game content

its a short platformer about accessibility settings and why they're important! about 5-15 minutes long, so it's quick.

i did a bunch of developer commentary so that'll be in the full release!

an unplayable game?! on Steam

a game about accessibility settings that's just a *bit* too hard for you to play effectively. 10-15 minutes in length with 30+ minutes of developer commentary!

In the spirit of the Steam Next Fest and just beign at PAX, I'm gonna pull an @caseyexplosion.bsky.social and do a quick rundown of the games that stood out to me there, most of which have demos!

(You're gonna see common themes, those mostly stem from the fact I have specific tastes.)
