Butterfly Circuit is also a good videogame, and yes i have been playing more visual novels than usual this month.

Mahouteq is a good videogame.

(It's also very, very short. And that's ok, considering it costs like 2 dollars)

Yes, that was a joke.

I mean he's probably still *good*, the guy's a 7-time world champion and all, but rumors of Ferrari just giving up on the guy after a poor season in favor of a rookie don't inspire confidence. Especially since said rookie will probably do just as bad, given Ferrari's biggest problem is Ferrari.

I have numerous thoughts about Midwest Angelica framing the United States' last stand in the iconography of a Desert Storm NATOWAVE montage, then using it as a mirror to Asuka's fight against the Eva Series in end of Evangelion.

A sophisticated show wasted on the analog horror crowd.

They absolutely have a humiliation fetish, there is no other explanation.

Out of your friends, which are you?

Unfortunately, i think Splinter Cell suffered from the same problem as Halo: the series reached its apex on the 3rd entry and all the freaks on the team either stopped working on it or had a lot more oversight from people who don't get what "cool" is. The result? White Bread Bourneclones.

Finished Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, but Steam didn't let me take my usual artsy screenshots so this is all you get.

I'm convinced that this game ended up being as artful as it did as an oversight. Some exec looked away for a moment and suddenly the team had made a perfect cultural artifact.

Addendum: if you expect WotC to be nice to you after learning they habitually hire kneebreakers to retrieve pricy cardboard and that one time they tried to take away your right to homebrew the game, you are stupid.

WotC will sell you out to whoever asks for a cookie and half a pack of Newports.

Nevermind the fact that Silent Hill 2, we're also talking about cult and a magic flower that...force a young woman into pregnancy to make her birth God against her will.

This isn't even "blinded by nostalgia", this is "didn't play past the first 20 minutes to get the grift video out in time".

These two records released at the same time, the notion of which would have made younger Matt pass out from hype.

I am currently not passed out, but i've also yet to listen to Age of Aquarius - so it's anybody's game right now.

Easy Delivery Co. is a good videogame.

In Deadeye Deepfake Simulacrum, you can do this.

Harama Self is the ideal game developer. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

Freedom Planet 2 is one of the most fun and beautiful games I've ever played in my life. Just...delightful from start to finish. When @tirkarokujo.itch.io said it's always "firing on all cylinders", he was putting it mildly.

Generational game you'll hear about in a video essay in 5 years.

Every game needs a photo mode, period.

The card game our friend Vista made with us is now part of Indiepocalypse #68 - and it includes the soundtrack by MINIMIS, @lucebreaks.bsky.social and @renegadesector.bsky.social!

You should probably check it out if you've got money for games after Silksong!
September 5, 2025 at 5:54 PM
Anyway, time to play that old-school platformer starring a zippy, spunky girl lead everyone's talking about.

(This joke is infinitely weaker now that i said the word "Silksong" in the previous tweet, but i still like making it)
