Cabel Sasser, Panic - XOXO Festival (2024)
YouTube video by XOXO Festival
www.youtube.com
I gave a talk at the final XOXO conference.
At first, I thought I'd revisit my first talk from ten years ago. But it turned into something different. Something about life, and art, and… McDonalds?
19 minutes. Try to go in without spoilers and watch until the end. 🙏

I waited for some downtime to play Time Flies (timeflies.buzz) and I'm glad I did. It's a quietly amazing thing—charming, clever, tender, and funny, and that's all before the final act hits you unexpectedly in the gut. A game that makes me want to make games, and my favorite in a long time.
Time Flies – A game about our limited time in this world.
Available now for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Steam, Epic Games Store, and Mac App Store. A game by Michael Frei and Raphaël Munoz, produced by Playables.

i played my first yakuza game this year, and instantly fell in love with the series and its direction.
so this particular famitsu developer goty list feels extra special to me.

what i will say: playdate catalog likely wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for stripe connect, and stripe is one of the only tech companies i actually tespect. it’s so cool that they made this for us.
what i want to say: i think they brought in a special camera lens to fit my enormous head in the frame

the very kind folks at stripe — our good (corporate) friends who power the financial parts of playdate and playdate catalog — stopped by our office and made a nice little playdate video for us.
thank you stripe! onward to 2026!

secret: this weekend i've had multiple groups of strangers come in to the panic office and play the first hour or so of big walk.
folks: it's going very well. i'm extremely excited about this game.
(we'll open this special opportunity up to the wider public sometime in 2026, i'll let you know!)

You’ve probably noticed Blippo+ appearing on GotY lists. The story of how the game was made is as incredible as the game itself and a reminder that there are better, healthier alternatives for creating art!

here’s tom, eloquent as always, in remembering eddie.
Words are insufficient for me to summarize the extraordinary life of the brilliant Eddie Sotto, even after a day of writing notices of varying lengths. Although I knew this day was approaching, I still don’t know where to begin. Eddie had been signaling it to me in the most paradoxical, “Eddie” way…

really very sad to hear about the passing of legendary imagineer eddie sotto. he had great taste, incredible talent, and although we never met in person, i always dreamed of having a (probably energy-overload) conversation with him. maybe i'll still have that conversation someday, somehow, somewhere

@wardjenkins.bsky.social i saw this post from Tom and thought of you! bsky.app/profile/tomk...
Randomly came across Disney artist Frans Van Lamsweerde in one of those posts that casually boasts, “My father was an artist at Disney.” And my follow up, “What was his name?” Then the unfamiliar name, followed by a Google search. And then, “Holy Cow!” Pictured here are his private Christmas cards.

Despelote is one of my favorite games of the last few years. Documentarian and personal and unlike anything else I’ve played. Go run around as a little kid trying to make sense of the world in the shadow of the World Cup.
few more reviews for despelote to hit 500 and overwhelmingly positive 🙏🏽
