if nothing changes by next summer, this is the last chance for our community to push back. The big ask is not spending $2000 to go to Vegas to play video games once. I'm not expecting much but it at least feels possible because the requirement for protest is simply not doing jack shit

When we made our systemic game MirrorMoon EP about the manipulation of systems, the play of contingency, and the brokenness of machines, you commented, “Oh, so experimental games mean Portal guns now?”
It traumatised us so much we’ve been making games exclusively about Italian politics ever since

The interesting, sophisticated thing about games is not whether they can tell stories as well as books or movies (they can’t) or float shocking themes as well as fine art (honestly, who cares).
It’s the manipulation of systems, the play of contingency, the brokenness of machines.

i will *not* quote tweet the “old internet was better” manifesto, but i will say: i talk a lot about inter/net nostalgia as a powerful force for good, but “go back to when the internet wasn’t awful” isn’t possible. the internet has always had exclusionary social & technical infrastructures. always.
