The good thing about everyone being so fucking tired of genAI slop is that you can just show your work and go "look at this, we made it by hand!!" and you're already adding value to people's lives with it💖

did you hear about the time I gave a talk at a local game festival about an old horse game that I loved and can no longer play and then the upload of that talk on youtube butterfly effected into this game getting made seven years later?

sometimes the creators of your childhood favorite games refuse to re-release or remaster their 20yo game despite it being a massive success at the time and you just have to take matters into your own hand 😌

I'm not sure my non-horsey audience is appreciating what is happening in this clip. Are people generally aware that

a) horses are social animals and groom each other, i.e. scratch each other's backs with their mouths

and b) that that behavior has probably never been represented in a video game?

In the yard overview in our game, horses are quite tiny. That won't stop us from making them as adorable as we possibly can 😤

I loved Wednesday S2! 💜🖤 tempted to rewatch it right away.

Any recommendations for more clever, character driven, atmospheric storytelling? No matter what medium 😊
