Very interesting and persuasive read illuminating an aspect of the AI discussion I wasn't aware of.

If you loved the absolutely gripping Séance of Blake Manor @blakemanorgame.bsky.social and want more occult and Irish folklore in your life, check out the equally atmospheric audio drama This House Will Devour You by @citeogpodcasts.bsky.social. Both brilliant stories had me utterly hooked. Links 👇

📢 Game demos are accessibility! 📢

Nothing makes me more discourage than buying a game I'm looking forward to, just to having to return it due to a massive barrier in the core mechanics of the game.

Let me test your accessibility before buying the game!

A little late to the New Year, but we wanted to say thanks.

We’re really proud of what the team pulled off last year and excited for what’s coming next. Happy 2026!

Demo planned for the first half of the year.

So, I've been meaning to make a thread about my current obsession:

Narrative deduction games! ✨🔎📖

That's the term I'm using for games like Obra Dinn, Golden Idol, and Roottrees, where using story information is how you progress. Aka the best genre!

Networking was not something that came intuitively to me until my late 20s / early 30s. It felt too transactional. What I figured out eventually was, if you focus on what *you* can do for others, rather than what *they* can do for you, you network. And then, success! And, hopefully, fun too!
you can def network vertically, but prioritize networking horizontally

surround yourself with kind, hardworking, and talented friends, and it’s only a matter of time before your careers go places

also: if you can’t take an opportunity, pass it on to a friend who’d do just as well if not better
Just gonna say this again for games sphere cus we get the same question:

Networking doesn't mean schmoozing up to famous people, it means making friends with your peers. Then in 10 years, 20, one of you might be famous? And sure you're still helping each other cus well yeah friends.

Make. Friends.

This year I joined the Confounding Calendar again. It's a puzzly advent calendar, each day you get a new game from a different developer.

This is A Confusing Map. Somebody described it as "grandma directions simulator", which is accurate.

Is playable on mobile🗺️

We’re opening a public casting for A.L.F.-RED - Agent THUNDER’s AI companion.

our AI will be voiced by a real human.

Pretty disappointed in both @humblebundle.com and especially in @girlswhocode.bsky.social. Please teach girls how to code, don't push them into generative AI. That won't build their skills. Prioritize foundational programming skills and awaken their interest. "Tired of long days writing code"???
