Today is the day to tell a strange story.
The long version we'll tell later, but the short version is this. In an attic, in his late great-uncle's house, @jon.inkle.co found a locked trunk. It took twenty years to open. Last summer he did.
Inside was a wiring diagram, and a stack of books.

Not satisfied with just destroying their own brand goodwill, OS companies are now using AI to try to destroy the good names of the apps users install. (Scrivener taking out adds to explain how it has no AI but Apple adds some anyway.)

If you're looking for kickass but often underlit games, I can recommend looking at game award nominations from different nations and regions. There's always something fun and innovative
This year's Dutch Game Awards has Grunn, Microtopia and RiftRiff as best game nomination. All very indie & great!

The only true argument we should be having over E33, is if it is the first true "obby" JRPG.

Cert is a difficult process and can really trip you up if you haven't done it before, so it's positive that some of this is being released. In narrative there are a whole bunch of things like incorrect terminology or broken button prompts that can cause submission issues.
Xbox made the certification documents public (this is it takes to ship/pass the checklist/QA to launch a game on Xbox) for everyone; and Nintendo/PS should consider the same. There are a lot of things that if were common knowledge would save hours/money to everyone. developer.microsoft.... #gamedev

For #FossilFriday & in honor of @alinemghilardi.bsky.social & colleagues' fantastic discovery of a new Cretaceous pterosaur in Brazil in a dinosaur regurgitalite ("fossil vomit"), here's a diagram I made for my book 'Dinosaurs Without Bones' (2014) showing the physics of a puking brachiosaur. 🧪🦕🤮🪨
