That game I released last year only costs 6 bucks on Steam right now!

- Cheaper than going to the movies but same length.
- Difficulty depending on your country.
- Cosmic and atmospheric horror.
- Eerie and moody.

People have enjoyed it thus far, why wouldn't you?

Rest in Peace, Jim Ward.

Been catching up with Joel Haver's '12 films in 12 months' project lately. It has made me feel more excited and passionate about both the medium of film and the craft of filmmaking than I've felt in years. 2026 might see me exploring some avenues of expression beyond the dead end that is modding.

Picked my guitar back up this week after a lengthy absence and MAN, I can't wait for the calluses on my fingertips to come back (typed with my right hand)

Since the mod's releasing next year, I decided to finally make some voiced dialogue snippets publicly accessible. Today's pick is @vetaphoenix.bsky.social, who voiced a character named Cora Frobisher all the way back in 2023!

Decided to rewatch the 2011 hit film Drive and the BluRay gave up the ghost right as the 'Under Your Spell' scene started

Shout-out to bloody banquets, one of my favorite tropes in western storytelling

you can learn so much about a player character from what they have the capacity to say, what they *might* say, but choose otherwise. it's something only novels can do as elegantly and effectively.

Got interviewed by Arccharger in case anyone wants to hear me mumble and stumble over my words for an hour about topics such as The Living Desert and New Vegas modding in general!

Checking in half a year later: another side quest folded into a MQ, some overly optimistic estimates retracted, some goalposts (such as the 50% completion mark) surpassed. Looking likely I'll complete another 2-3 quests before January. All goes well, 2026 will be the year 🤞

PSA: this Sunday at 6PM CET I'll be doing a live interview with @arccharger.bsky.social over on the 'Another Millennia and Friends' Discord server, followed by a Q&A session. A video documenting this historic meeting of the minds will presumably be uploaded to YT afterwards

This story is infinitely more important than GTA getting delayed. Don't let me catch you moaning about waiting longer for a video game if you're not mad about why it happened.

Just finished the storyline of Dead Island 2, set on the famous island of Los Angeles, and it gave me a great idea for a game: a Dead Island / Dying Light type zombie hack-and-slash where what story there is doesn't catch fire and implode in the final act. Starting to feel like a genre curse

Hey, I heard that my eerie game was on sale once again!

- Country Based difficulty.
- Creepy.
- A bit goofy.
- A story that shall stay with you after playing. (That's what people said)

Get it for 6 bucks to celebrate the Halloween Sale! 🥰

Today's project: implementing a metric shit ton's worth of side quest dialogue for these two particularly loquacious characters

Apparently most English language style guides recommend the use of the possessive 's suffix for singular nouns & names ending in an S rather than just putting an open apostrophe at the end & calling it a day like I always do, and I feel sick and appalled.

James's?
Charles's?!
Luis's!?!

Horrible!

Six years ago, I wrote most of the Tragedian dialogue for Pathologic 2 in iambic pentameter. I'm back now doing the same for Pathologic 3. I figured it was helpful to write a guide on *how* I did it – in case I get hit by a bus and the team has to carry on without me.

I see the Pathologic 2 devs took some inspiration from my Fallout 4 settlements' rich style of architecture

Out of the big German shows of the past 10 years or so, I never quite got the hype around 'Dark' and couldn't stand 'How to Sell Drugs Online', but two seasons deep into 'Babylon Berlin' I actually can't believe it's not more popular. This show is *really* fucking good!
