To my fellow #IndieDev — please drop links to your video games in the comments! I would love to livestream them on #Twitch and write about them for my socials! My goal is to highlight & support smaller #GameDev in this infinite pool of talent 😊💛

For my comp lit class, I’m analyzing SOMA through a multimodal perspective to show that games as an interactive medium alter the reading of a narrative. Join me on Twitch as I nerd out over one of my favourite philosophical games! In the name of academia, of course… 😋

I discussed today at #AGS2023 how the lack of standards amongst subjective author opinions makes it difficult to effectively compare games. Reviews play an especially crucial role in marketing indie games, so it’s cool to see press considering/implementing clearer structures for readers to review 😉
Yesterday on PC Gamer we published our annual list of the Top 100 PC games, debuting a new approach to this long-running tradition: elaborate math! We heard your years-long discourse on game scores, and responded by scoring each game four times, per person. www.pcgamer.com/the-top-100-...
