Oh, hey! I wrote that one.
My favorite quest in Outer Worlds 2 is when you help a group of completely milquetoast middle managers try and find dirt on executives - and they have no idea what to do with it. Peak Obsidian.

The difference between a judicial warrant and an administrative warrant is the difference between a $20 bill and a napkin that a fascist wrote "twenty dollars" on.

I found the old 35mm slide for the cover for Neuromancer and had it scanned in for your pleasure. Enjoy!

I brought one toy downstairs for Potato. He left and went back upstairs to go get the other.

I’m kinda glad to see big companies finally getting more comfortable with handing the keys to their big franchises to cool indie devs with a proven track record. Castlevania by Motion Twin, God of War by Mega Cat. Smart! The New Hollywood games moment is perhaps here, baby!

I maintain that this is the moment a lot of folks realise that they can just do direct deals with porting houses and marketing teams.

Publishers got used to low risk thanks to platform deals and crowdfunding. They need to remember that ‘absorbs risk’ is their primary non-replaceable role tout suite
"we shouldn't have to work for free on a game until it's nearly-done enough to get funding" and "it's the only thing you can really do so you should do it if you want to make games" are both true imo and it's shit but what else is there really to do that isn't just give up

Original (unpublished) artwork that I made for The Woman in Black by Susan Hill.

Susan gave me lots of time & freedom to create the illustrations, I made lots of roughs & mood pieces. Sometimes they turned out a bit strange but I was learning!
