Epic made provably incorrect statements about the game’s content, refused to provide details supporting their claims, and has not shared their claimed AO IARC certificate, which normally includes a link for the developer to appeal. They do not ‘love that studio’, they have effectively ghosted us

Earlier this week, I spoke briefly Epic about Horses, a game that was approved for release on EGS, then blocked after a re-rating

"We love that studio," Epic VP Steve Allison said of Santa Ragione, but maintained that an AO rating was a dealbreaker

My hands have been in rough shape lately & I broke the USB cable on my arcade stick (which also has a stripped case screw I have to deal with in order to replace said cable lol)

So between those two factors I've decided 2026 is the year I take a break from action games and become The Literate Gamer

Cool so after months of pointedly ignoring and suppressing comments about Kagawa’s history as a violent sex offender and refusing to comment on it, the official stance they’re taking now is “we hired him on purpose for that reason”
04tenno.bsky.social Masu ⚔️✨ RGG Wiki 会長 @04tenno.bsky.social · 4d
RGG Studio not only cast Kagawa despite his actions, they are specifically taking advantage of his image as a creep to sell the role.

Guess that’s that. #REMOVEKAGAWA
A shot of Teruyuki Kagawa as Goh Hamazaki in Yakuza Kiwami 3 with his face mosaic blurred out, accompanied by an excerpt from a GAME Watch interview with Ryosuke Horii on 2026-02-05: Horii: “Rikiya and Hamazaki are both key characters to the story, so it would certainly be safer not to recast them and avoid online criticism (laughs). But we felt there was no use being afraid. We based our decision on what excited us and made us think, ‘This is who we want to perform,’ or ‘What if we cast this person?’ […] Hamazaki is a sleazy, persistent, and militant yakuza, right? Since he isn’t an explosive character like Kanda, when we tried to think of someone who makes you go, ‘This guy’s a creep,’ naturally it was Kagawa-san. The biggest thing was just had to see that. Kagawa-san’s acting is fun to watch. Even when he’s chopping a pig’s feet off with a chef’s knife, it has a slimy feel.”

it's kind of incredible how horribly GOG misunderstands their audience. nobody who is buying jazz jackrabbit 2 in 2026 to play on their modern computer wants AI in anything

Little spot arts I had the of pleasure painting for Book Of Spirits last year.
I also did a little bit of AD work on the three adventure chapters in the book.

The book is out now, here: tinyurl.com/2s3chbz2

AD: me :3
A spot illustration of a night time clock tower rising above rooftops. There is ominous mist swirling in a spiral around the tower and a pale full moon sits right behind its highest point. There are faint suggestions of stars in the dark sky behind.. It is executed in a realistic, painterly style. The copyright text on the bottom reads: © Beyond The Screen Studio 2025 Charlie “Newt” Borovský @EyeOfTheNewt A spot illustration of a shiny, bright metal scimitar laying on a moss covered stone. From the blade, dark red mist of magic swirls and blood drips from its edge. On the top of the page, there is the same sword, but without the magic effect. The polished metal reflects its surroundings, indicating it is in a bright and green environment. It is executed in a realistic, painterly style. The copyright text on the bottom reads: © Beyond The Screen Studio 2025 Charlie “Newt” Borovský @EyeOfTheNewt A spot illustration of a fluffy teddy bear on its side and a pair of fair skinned hands in blue, fancy sleeves parting a tear inside the toy, to gently insert an amethyst-carved cameo with gold edges and chain into the cavity. It is executed in a realistic, painterly style. The copyright text on the bottom reads: © Beyond The Screen Studio 2025 Charlie “Newt” Borovský @EyeOfTheNewt A spot illustration showing three spot paintings: Top left is an old thread-bare and repaired owlbear plushie. One of its button eyes falling off. On the bottom left is a makeshift ram made out of a tree trunk and metal scraps, with brass handle bars screwed into the bark. On the right, there is a wooden fish drying rack with two large sea birds sitting atop among the many shiny, bright coloured fish. There is a fish filled bucket below it and another seagull eating crumbs at the bottom. It is executed in a realistic, painterly style.
