steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

Winter is almost here, which makes me excited for snow.
It seems like these two also like snow.

Last week I did the 2025 @spelkollektivet.com Haloween Game Jam with some very cool people.

The jam lasted 5 days and we made a game about exploring a big deep dark mysterious hole 🕳️

Did you publish a game on Xbox Live Arcade between 2005–2010? We’d love to hear from you!

One cool thing about the internet is you can talk to anyone. Just yesterday I talked to this guy. You can too. Turns out most people like fanmail. youtu.be/jib4kj03l8w

The best part about having a fucked up sleep schedule is experiencing two midnights in one Halloween.

I've been getting emails all year about what we can do to help people who are getting into closed captions, especially freelancers, students, and hobbyists.

My answer? A place to hang out, share advice, and share past work.

#Accessibility #Subtitles #ClosedCaptions
Save the date! We're launching a new Discord server to share in our love of captions and media accessibility with the rest of the community.

Follow us now so you can get the link right here on Monday, November 3rd.

I continue to maintain that Oxford commas and en/em dashes will remain a core part of our captioning style at @caption.plus.

And frankly, the original input and insight we give as captioners and writers should speak for itself more than the flood of automated imitators can take away.
My work requires Oxford commas and em dashes and I hate that AI has made that appear as anything other than the work I'm literally supposed to be doing, and people actually believe it.
"Oxford commas are a sign you write with ai" I will find such a unique way to rip out your spine that they'll make a movie about it

For October's last Takeover Tuesday on @newgrounds.com, I'm featuring "Free Icecream," a small and creepy point-and-click adventure game from 18 years ago. Criminally underrated.

Who wouldn't say no to free ice cream?
