CrossCode stream tonight will be pretty chill. I'm fairly low energy. Perfect if you need to wind down. Live now! twitch.tv/chipdip18

Kind of a weird schedule this week. Tomorrow we'll do a bunch of demos, and then continue CrossCode in the evening. Thusday is a 2 hour stream writing LOTR musical songs, and then Friday night Mycopunk with @realmfresh.bsky.social in which we try really hard to accomplish anything.

My book comes out today! It’s sad and funny and a little spooky and a lot mysterious and very weird, and you can buy it wherever fine books are sold in indie stores bookshop.org/p/books/happ...

Hey @valvesoftware.com, you know what would be really rad? If we could filter out games that used AI in pre or post production while we browse through Next Fest demos.

Might also give you some interesting data on how people feel about AI games. Could be fun, could be cool

This is my chief boomer (millennial) complaint.

I will not apologize for eavesdropping when this happens.

Get ready for the wildest LOTR trivia you've ever heard, this Friday at 10pm ET.

Stream Schedule for the Week!

Friday night I will be co-streaming Mycopunk with @chipdip.bsky.social where we pledge to complete at least 1 mission.

I may stream Nicktoons & the Dice of Destiny for a couple hours before Mycopunk cause they gave me a code and I forgot about it but I'm undecided

Tuesday 8pm ET - Lollipop Chainsaw
Thursday 8pm ET - Shadows of the Damned
Friday 10pm ET - Mycopunk

I bought a game on Xbox, PS, and Switch today. What do I need to get on Steam to round it out (please make it cheap, I am breaking my wallet)

Bye Sweet Carole has some of the most stunning hand-drawn frames ever seen in a video game. The narrative itself is quite touching. Too bad the actual gameplay is a slog.

My review:

Bye Sweet Carole Review – Till You’re Home To Stay - Pixelbytegaming

Bye Sweet Carole captivates with its beautiful artstyle, harkening back to Disney's golden era. The gameplay execution is where it stumbles. Hand drawn animation has come a really long way. From the 1...
