Consistently loses at board games cause I spend all my time explaining the rules.
Made a game once, was fun, probably will again some day! https://benfardel.itch.io/m0ria

Hey #screenshotsaturday! It's my second game based on minesweeper in Unity, and my second game ever, it's *Miner Chords*, for Android! It even has a trailer now 😁 Not sure how much more work I want to put into it at this point... How do you know when to stop?

For anyone who feels like this, guess who just made a minesweeper variant for Android with absolutely no monetization or data collection?

Talked with PEGI and they do not see anything wrong Balatro being rated 18+, nor with EA sports FC (and similar games) having a 3+ rating
Blaming EU laws, blaming storefronts, waiting for the future. Sitting on their hands
I thought some good might come of this, this sucks

Same. My lesbian wife and her beautiful relationships are a big part of my life, and my relationships are a big part of hers, even though they rarely collide, just because we are each other's best supporter.
Yes, it is possible for me to be in a monogamous relationship with my wife while she is in a polyamorous relationship with me.
No, that doesn't make me a Soyboy.
No, that doesn't make me a "Beta" male.
That makes me an understanding partner that supports my wife's needs.
It's 2024. Grow up.

#polyamory time🎉
My polyam flavour is that I'm married and have kids, and I have two loving, separate, open relationships in addition.
Everyone knows everyone else, meets on occasion (my 40th birthday was awesome 😁) and we all strive to become better people as well as partners.

The idea that you *must* coexist with and listen to people who are cruel, unjust, and just plain unpleasant to be around is the logic of abusers, by the way

Ghost of Tsushima

Countless indie games you’ve never heard of that are terrific
