Reminder to other indie dev teams especially new teams. Most of us are happy to share advice and give feedback on publisher/funding/platform deals and terms. There are some shady predatory biz weasels that will take advantage of you as soon as your game starts to pop off. Please reach out.

A couple of people asked, so-- this is from the credits to The Killing Stone, the game I've been working on at Question for the past couple of years, launching in Early Access in less than 6 hours. Please wishlist it!

RIP Tom Noonan, a friend for 18 years. Often typecast as villains, he was an actor's actor, a unique playwright & filmmaker, a gifted composer, and a pianist with a sweet voice. My kids & I used to go to his tiny apartment for dinner (pizza). We'd have a few drinks & he'd start to play. Magic.

Amish Paradise for sure, but the Phantom Menace one (The Saga Begins?) is a close second
you are all fools the REAL music question that will cause intergenerational warfare on bluesky is actually: what is weird al's signature song?

I think I’ve heard one bad Bond theme, *maybe* two (Man with the Golden Gun)
Just listened to a podcast about the film GoldenEye where they all agreed the theme tune was terrible. Unforgivable.

A super easy to use game engine for Nintendo 64 released! ✨ I tried loading in my #gameassets to see if they're compatible but it seems they'll need some manual adjusting, hope that gets fixed in the future.

Damn, did we lose Duvall? One of the icons of '70s cinema, but he remained iconic on through most of the years that followed. Outstanding in THX, Godfather, a ton of Westerns, Days of Thunder... Like James Earl Jones or Christopher Walken, his voice was his real instrument, and he used it so well.
Like Hackman & Sutherland, Robert Duvall is an actor's actor. With stealthy precision, he slid into any ensemble, did the work, & made it look so effortless that often, it took us a second or third viewing to really see just how much he makes moments work, like one of my faves in GODFATHER. #RIP

In cartoon news, Tubi just revealed practically the entirety of the classic Warner Bros/Hanna-Barbera/Cartoon Network library is coming to the platform this March.
For those who don't wanna visit the bird site, here's the full list of what's coming.
