Do I know anyone who worked on Kpop Demon Hunters or is close to one of the people who worked on it?
Hoping to make a present for a bunch of 6 year olds who are fans of the movie.

This is not a "students today" post--it's more "this is a new form of dysfunction" that doesn't look exactly like it's been in previous decades. It's more than just "first-year chaos." It's an across-the-board inability to process instructions, engage with longer texts, and *connect* with others.

30k for a corrupt politician ad that will last weeks
250,000k for a trailer at TGA, that will last 1 minute

I was starting to write a post here and then it turned into a blog post instead. Riffing off @malicedafirenze.bsky.social's recent good post, to talk about the future of indie games: blog.vbuckenham.com/the-future-o...

I've followed Alice Ruppert on social media for a while now. She runs a website focused on horse games. I'm not a horse girl! I mean horses are fine, but they're not something I'm mega into. But what ...

My sister works full time and her old cat is very lonely since her other cat passed away and will apperantly sometimes just tilt his orange little face to the sky when he is sad and go "AAAAAAAAAAAAH" in a cat scream. So I am hanging out with him to make him less sad sometimes

I was doing a rough tally. About 25 people already confirmed on BSKY that they want to attend. 5-10 have mentioned to me offline that they're down too.
March 7, time TBD, venue TBD (Toronto), cover maybe like $5.
Anybody else want to attend? LMK so we can firm up numbers and plan!

You know for the price of sending one person to GDC you could probably sponsor the entire @gdcheese.bsky.social event.
A GDC pass, flight, hotel, meals, all gets expensive real fast.
