Was going through old folders and found a model I'd done of the shuttle from Outland(1981)! I think it still holds up fairly well. I remember modeling it while I was still at Adidas doing footwear design and desperate to break into games.

A medieval French apocalypse adventure wasn't on my list before, but came as a solid rec from a friend.

"Friendslop" was ha ha funny for a day or two but the more I hear the word, I hate it because it belies the incredible amount of work and skill and strong design of the successful ones.

Steam Next Fest is over today. Managed to play a couple interesting demos: Cairn, Half Sword, YapYap, Road to Vostok, and MISERY are all on my radar now. Give them a shot while you can!

Rewatched Outland with Sean Connery - if ever there was a Weyland Yutani offshoot with the Alien, this could be it.
The set designs are really cool and feel realistic, even if some of it comes off as being lower budget.

'The Queen is dead: PREPARE FOR SKIRMISH COMBAT!' is also almost exactly the full set-up of House of the Dying Sun.
Tbf, nothing will ever beat the GW website front page at that time.

I'm mildly obsessed with how well clicker/idle games can weave a narrative.

lmao Unfair Flips earns so much drama as the UI gets out of the way and centers the coin in preparation for your 10th flip. I laugh every time it happens.

Our medieval curator Alison Ray introduces Rawlinson Bodleian Library MS. Rawl. D. 252...a 15th Century necromancer's journal.
This manuscript contains spells written in Latin and Middle English, and would have served as a reference for a professional sorcerer.
