If you're in the mood to do me a favour ~~~

Clicking the links and reading them is the best thing you can do for me at the moment.

You can even just pretend to read them if you want to.

It doesn't matter how good you are or how hard you try.

Capitalism doesn't care.

So after GCAP I was speaking to a lot of people about my capstone project from last year called Date Me Plz!, which is a Jackbox-style dating simulator where your goal is to date your friends. I decided to put the game on itch io for people to play

This year has been one of the worst of my life. I've lost basically everything.

I wanted to just thank everyone I met and hung out with at games week and pax. You were all so kind and gentle with me.

It's hard to be around so many incredible people when you feel unworthy of the oxygen you breathe.

The @sifterhq.bsky.social crew was a big part of that. @gdig.bsky.social deserves a lot of credit for curating a space for people to learn and grow in a safe environment, while recognising that we’re volunteering our time on top of our daily commitments.

A picture of a group of people smiling at the camera. They’re all wearing matching Sifter shirts in different colours.

Ever wanted to see how the gaming worlds we live in were made? @hopecorr.bsky.social went down to the opening of ACMI's Game Worlds this week and finally has the answer to "Are video games art?" courtesy of the sage observations of a teen.

Obsidian director Josh Sawyer says he's 'Never really felt secure in a job' in 26 years, and it's worse than ever now

"That’s actually pretty messed up."

My first time at GCAP was really enlightening. @jesawyer.bsky.social keynote was especially so, here were some of my takeaways.

RPG devs stopped making games like Baldur's Gate 'because retailers told us no one wanted to buy them', says New Vegas and Pillars of Eternity director Josh Sawyer

The Infinity Engine wasn't quite so infinite, in the end.
