Today is the day to repost this meme about International Men's Day, one of the most unironically wholesome memes that has ever been made.

It's true.
"What movie traumatized you as a child" All of them. It was 1985, there were no non-traumatic movies to watch as a child

It's true.
Y'all I've been lucky enough to play this game a bunch, and it takes the RTS/Strategy genre in some really cool, exciting new directions! Go check it out!
This is the big news. We have a demo (alpha really) up on Steam. We're looking for feedback and starting to get the buzz rolling.
Give it a go and let us know what you think!

Looking forward to heading out to GDC next week and catching up with folks IRL! For those of you on the sky app I haven't met yet, if y'all want to talk narrative/game design, hit me up!

This is very exciting. Wing Commander fans in particular might want to take a closer look at Stars Reach: Raph Koster was once the lead designer on Privateer Online!
HOLY COW! Stars Reach hit its funding target in less than one hour, and is currently the #2 product globally on Kickstarter.
I cannot express how grateful we are here.
We will start unlocking stretch goals and more Early Birds (they went FAST)!

Don't sleep on this one y'all, cause Overboard was a great slice of narrative crime capers! And if you haven't played Overboard yet, what the heck are you waiting for??
It's ready!
Announcing the follow-up to 2021's Overboard!
EXPELLED!
We are so excited to have people play this one. It's 1922. It's a boarding school. There are japes. There's attempted murder. There are dolphins. God and the Devil and everything to play for.
Check out the trailer below:

nothing I hate more (in this specific moment) than the slow death of the text walkthrough, I don't want to stutter through some dumbass video with 8,000 ads to figure out where the golden secrets are in Fuckshit 2024. I just need a picture and a small paragraph, please god.

Larry Hama is a legend. He subverted a comic franchise that was supposed to exist only to sell toys and turned it into a surprisingly nuanced, thoughtful, and inclusive look at the nature of war and our veterans. #gijoe #comics #writing #larryhama

New #articydraft users often ask me: "How do I display a character count for my dialogue to make sure it's not going over an engine/UI limit?" Answer: In the editor, you can't (not really), but I do use a visual hack. 👇🧵
