Friends, I find myself with EIGHT game versions that needs an update. I would be very thankful if you can give these a quick whirl and let me know if anything seems out of place.
Both Android and iOS.

to every company that is cancelling their huge GAAS "live service" games:
give those assets to a smaller little scrappy group of devs in your company. a team of 5-10 people. let them make a singleplayer thing with the characters and props, locations. it will be interesting. it will probably sell

Reminds me of a discussion I had at A MAZE: if we want the next Balatro, we need to finance an ecosystem for it to grow naturally, not wait for a person to have a million dollars idea THEN finance it

hire zoë now!!
Ugh. So. I was caught in layoffs months ago and things are getting a bit desperate. If anyone is looking to hire a 15-year industry vet with a bunch of awards to do game design, narrative design, content design, or writing (games or other things!), please hit me up.

watching all art styles congeal, hearing like 2-3 styles of music (stop aping John Williams ffs) , and seeing gameplay genres fossilize in-place, its just disheartening
seeing how excited devs were to play in *polygons* 25 years ago, that sense of freedom it gave creators, it feels lost

One final attempt to push my latest video a little :D
In this one I talk about the emotional impact of the Maiden Astraea bossfight in Demon's Souls, while also discussing the lore and her motivations a little :)
Give it a watch, it's a good one! 🌈
