In this video, Alanah Pearce explains the issue with HORSES' ban better than we ever could. Thank you so, so much 🙏
Games are constantly under attack for doing things other mediums have tackled for decades as if it's some new taboo.

Just watched @charalanahzard.bsky.social video that sums things up more eloquently youtu.be/G-7r9pL0Hqo?...

#Indiedev should be talking more about the freedom of the artform.
why is anyone ok with this

Archive footage of the New Games movement. So much of what I've learnt in my time in games and performance has its roots in this space 🧡

the HORSES affair is a startlingly low bar to cross to see if people actually care about protecting games from censorship of upsetting themes because it's far tamer and has way more moral clarity than a lot of stuff that doesn't get banned. but it's also very clarifying to see who can't cross it

Been saying this and I agree.

Cant wait for the fragmentation of the games industry.
One of the many things worth thinking about re: Steam's ban on Horses is how it highlights is the centralization problem caused by having such a monolithic (and maybe mono-something-else) retail giant.

Independent studios with even humble commercial aspirations are chained to Valve's whims.

Join folks, myself, and @ladylike.itch.io in creating ttrpgs that others would call “not a game” on purpose to combat the idea of the “not art” art.

So @mikerose.bsky.social & I decided to do a silly podcast comparing notes about indie games & their history & also about suddenly being middle-aged & tired

As anyone who knows both of us could have guessed, shenanigans ensued immediately

holy fuck this is ridiculous, how can we claim games are art if art is this scary to our two primary distribution channels?
Yesterday, the Epic Games Store decided at the last minute not to distribute the game, after having previously approved a release build. HORSES is otherwise now available on GOG, Itch, and Humble for $4.99. www.horses.wtf

In the age of centralized platforms, you can get a reverse Streisand effect, with ban controversies prompting additional bans out of cowardice or middleman solidarity.

Yes! I will add this to my websites as well. I should make an icon for it as well.
are people putting “no AI” notices on their blogs yet, to indicate the posts are written entirely by a human?
is that a thing?
should i add it to mine? 🤔 imo offering a sense of reassurance would be nice, especially since i work so hard to avoid it.

You had me at banned from steam!

Its been a long time since I got excited about getting a video game, but this definitely does it.
Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...
