Neverway is a horror RPG that dares to ask the question: what if you gave up your 9-to-5 to work for a dead god? The answer might surprise you.
Neverway is the grotesque slow-burn horror RPG I need in my life

SEEKING: Web designer in Vancouver area to redesign website for local game event. We're volunteer-run, so budget is chibi and we're hoping to work with someone who is as into supporting the local gaming community as we are. Maybe a longshot, but canthurt.gif, right? 🤗

Stand by this: www.politico.com/newsletters/...
What’s a technology that you think is overhyped? I’m going to give a sideways answer to this, which is that the venture capital business model needs to be understood as requiring hype. You can go back to the Netscape IPO, and that was the proof point that made venture capital the financial lifeblood of the tech industry. Venture capital looks at valuations and growth, not necessarily at profit or revenue. So you don’t actually have to invest in technology that works, or that even makes a profit, you simply have to have a narrative that is compelling enough to float those valuations. So you see this repetitive and exhausting hype cycle as a feature in this industry. A couple of years ago, you would have been asking me about the metaverse, then last year, you would have asked me about Web3 and crypto, and for each of these inflection points there’s an Andreessen Horowitz manifesto. It’s not simply that one piece of technology is overhyped, it’s that hype is a necessary ingredient of the current business ecosystem of the tech industry. We should examine how often the financial incentive for hype is rewarded without any real social returns, without any meaningful progress in technology, without these tools and services and worlds ever actually manifesting. That’s key to understanding the growing chasm between the narrative of techno-optimists and the reality of our tech-encumbered world.

finally got a chance to start reading this BEST SELLER <3 by @victoriatran.bsky.social

super fun and full of examples (I very much relate to all the habbo hotel experiences). highly recommend it to anyone self-publishing a game, even if you're not directly working in community management!

ダークなスローライフRPG 『Neverway』のメールインタビューを担当しました！
www.famitsu.com/article/2025...

とくに現代社会での生活にも通じるテーマ性や、ステレオタイプな恋愛観に囚われない登場キャラクターとの関係構築の話が興味深く、こういうゲームを待っていたという人は多いかも、と感じました。

「ルーンファクトリーみたいなゲームですか？」的な質問に、構造的には『Undertale』や『MOTHER2』などに近いと返ってきたり、終盤では『ゆめにっき』のタイトルが出てくるなど、この辺りのゲームが好きな方も要チェックです！

Love this piece from @heatherteacup.bsky.social One of my favourite things about the horror genre is its sheer scope. Come and play with us! www.gamesradar.com/games/simula...
Playing a horror game is my worst nightmare, but these two gnarly farming sims make me want to brave the genre
