i'm not gonna dunk on them by sharing a screencap but seeing "we're pushing back on itch's shitty anti-queer anti-porn behaviour by selling a queer porn bundle on itch, which is letting us sell our queer porn bundle" is going to make me walk into the sea.

we wouldn't need "fast travel" if our game studios invested in accessible and affordable public transport infrastructure. skyrim should have a tram network. assassin's creed should have several regular bus routes. give ghost of tsushima a metro

mech design for the Zenith-A Project Eudaimonia prototype: Mow. i shot for something agricultural and utilitarian but built in an era where function still allowed interesting form. a tractor or a blender from a time of technological dreaming

played a single track of YARG at aura's last night and like... I get why the plastic guitar economy imploded, but these should be the biggest games on earth and it's a failure of the medium that they aren't. what are videogames even for if not blasting dragula with the homies.

the speed at which this goes from one kind of horror game to an Extremely Different Thing is kind of insanely sick

There should be more games inspired by avant-garde stage design.

Sektori is one of the best games I’ve played all year. Design perfection, a fantastic soundtrack, it’s almost impossible for me to put down. I need every sicko reading this to play it. For @aftermath.site aftermath.site/sektori-shoo...

seeing people being like "ehhh Idkkkkk horses DOES sound kinda icky, I get why it was banned" like barely 2 months after a bunch of people kicked up the wildest possible hostile campagn against _itch_ makes me feel like I'm losing my mind lol

I love windows, I love clicking on an interaction I've done a thousand times in this OS only for it to throw a curveball so wild and stupid I have to sigh "what the fuck" at the screen on a weekly basis.

congratulations to the city of vancouver, who will now have one year of absurd austerity, overfunding of a useless police department, and likely several years more of undoing all the damage this shit is going to do
JUST IN: Ken Sim and ABC have voted through a Budget that makes deep cuts. 

This austerity budget makes Zero Sense.

This seems like a very sensible and smart move for a city whose culture is absolutely defined by arts, culture and sustainability and whose police force exists seemingly exclusively to harass homeless people.

sarcasm is defined by the oxford english dictionary as--
Vancouver's 2026 draft budget has PASSED.

Approved on a 7-4 vote on party lines, with ABC in favour and councillors Fry/Bligh/Orr/Maloney opposed.

Property tax freeze, $50 million more for VPD, and cuts to Arts, Culture, Planning and Sustainability departments, among others.

Full story to come.

Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

The way that Sektori’s strike attack reloads when you dash into a token and the way that strike chain functions as a multiplier for the separate kill chain is one of the beautiful things I’ve seen in a game in years. It’s mechanically perfect.
