I don’t want to spoil Pluribus for anyone. It’s an outstanding show, though, and I think y’all should watch it

600 day streak of Japanese
It’s actually longer than that, but I broke my streak in the beginning at some point when I accidentally did my Japanese after midnight a couple times in one week

They’re redoing our roofing, so there is floor- and wall-shaking work going on three hours before I would usually wake up. The world just isn’t built for people who sleep differently 😓

I just saw something that said if Austin Powers was made today it would be a secret agent frozen in 1995, so excuse me while I crumble to dust and blow away in the wind

When Silksong tries to invoke timed on/off platforms but I was alive and playing video games already when Heat Man was in Mega Man 2

Every time I make progress in Silksong, I encounter a new area or challenge that seems like it’s the maddest I could possibly get at the game
This is proven wrong every time I make progress in Silksong
These encounters are just plain sadistically designed

I have made an irresponsible purchase: the Yolopark Shockwave model kit. I told myself I’d grab it if it ever came back in stock and it did for a VERY brief window of time. It is now sold out again
In my defense, look at those details. Look at them!

Always: Listen to where/when complaints are happening
Almost never: Listen to suggestions on how to address them

One of the most important jobs of a designer is understanding that there are some things that everyone says they want, but then absolutely hate if they get it

I just saw an out of order bitcoin machine in a strip mall hookah shop window and if that’s not heavy handed environmental storytelling about the state of the country right now, I don’t know what is

As someone who grew up playing the X-Men arcade game so much that eventually I could beat it, it’s hard to overstate how much I’m looking forward to this one 🤩

Operationalized Design
There’s no such thing as “good design,” there is only effective or ineffective design. That evaluation is based entirely on what it is you’re trying to accomplish, or how you operationalize your design goals

What's your number one personal game design principle? And even better - does it have a cool name?
