We're Computing Star, a bi ace spectrum (...it's complicated) plural system who makes video games, loves Mega Man as a series a lot, can't get enough of far too many old video games, and are furries. Among other things.
Have fun out there!

The best way journalists can support indie games is to cover more than whatever the current indie hits/darlings of the moment are. Games like Hades, Blue Prince, and Silksong do not need help with visibility, but discoverability is the biggest challenge facing many indie devs today.

Something worth noting: Rockstar is leaning HEAVILY on the excuse that the unionising employees were "leaking private company information"
They want people to assume this means game info or assets.
But I will bet you CASH MONEY this translates to:
'they were comparing salaries and work contracts"

Game company sows misinformation to cover up union busting, fans fall for it, actual employee posts explaining the employees were fired to prevent the studio unionizing
This is *unacceptable*
This is *unacceptable*
This wasn’t about leaking GTA VI.
It was:
Rockstar illegally firing union members to stop the studio from unionizing.
it directly contradicts Rockstar’s PR narrative and confirms almost everything that people suspected was going on.

EXCLUSIVE on @gamedeveloper.bsky.social: not only has The Game Awards not nominated a Future Class for 2025, it's told alumni it "does not have any active programming plans" for the award.
The Future Class page was taken down sometime this year—eliminating a definitive archive of honorees.

Y'know, I'd ask people to back me up when I say there's something to Thanatos 3D that's oddly compelling for being so limited on a technical level, but that'd require there to be a chance above .01% that anybody else on BlueSky had played Thanatos 3D, or even heard of it before hearing of it from me

So I have used this in a pinch, and I can 100% vouch for it.
It's not garbage food or forgotten orders, it's always fresh same-day food.
Most of the restaurants in my area make extra specifically for TGTG, and add coupons on full priced orders.
It's a great resource, and it cuts down on food waste.
