Walking blind into that Divinity trailer at 6:30am was a hell of a start to the day

Hollow Knight? Metroidvania.

Blue Prince? Metroidbrainia (shout out @gameonysus.bsky.social)

Metroid Prime 4? I'm pitching Metriodsplainia. My boy Myles acting like he's played the whole damn game before me.

Nice looking game though, and some truly excellent gyro control options in there.

The post-launch hustle is so real. For a brief period, every ounce of my attention was on a very small number of release-related details, but now it's on a zillion things again.

Go play and review Battle Suit Aces so I can just focus on making it better 🤖💖

@tom.trinketstudios.com the LCARS-style UI in Battle Suit Aces keeps giving me a big dumb smile every time I see it. Congratulations on the launch! I can't put it down, having a great time.

Treated myself to two FLGS pickups today: Goblin Quest by @gshowitt.bsky.social and For Small Creatures Such As We by @annablackwell.bsky.social - my first(!) Solo RPG book. Thrilled to dive in.

Absolutely THRILLED to hear new music from Justin in 2025. There's a lot of variety packed into this EP, can't wait to include it in our campaign playlist rotation.
After 4 years, I’m back with a brand-new EP made for adventuring.
Eternal Journey is OUT NOW!

Thank you for always listening... this is for you.

Enjoy 💙

Look, I think we can all agree that videogames are the worst thing about parrying.

Cozy gamers with Switch 2 preorders, what are you snapping up at launch? Rune Factory? Bravely Default? Fantasy Life?

Two years ago when Some Desperate Glory hit shelves, I was at the end of a career in tech that had eye-widening similarities to Gaea.

Soon I’ll be excitedly turning pages on The Incandescent after two years working in Higher Education. A surreal and fun coincidence.

And hey, join a union.
LESS THAN TWO WEEKS

I need to do a new self-promo thread but honestly I still think this one gets the heart of it. Between my own education and my teaching career I spent a solid thirty years of my life At School. I have some thoughts. Also some jokes. Here's a book about that.
Preorders should now be available nearly everywhere for THE INCANDESCENT, coming in Spring 2025!

This is a book about money and education and status symbols, about loving your career, about demons, about magic, about fantasy school - but most of all about how 'school' is always a kind of fantasy.

Surely this is going to go well for a company that famously runs hundreds of publicly editable wikis.

Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching.

Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.

Hit the end of Act 1 of @expedition33.bsky.social and I’m just sorta staring at the ceiling wishing I didn’t have to sleep or work or be a responsible adult.

Simply walking into a shop, speaking to a human and securing a Switch 2 preorder tonight was kinda surreal and pleasant. Shout out to Smyth’s!

I don’t know who was responsible for cutting the TGAs Dispatch trailer, but EVERYONE involved with that deserves a raise. That slapped. youtu.be/jK0cGKMDMPE?...

When the How To Train Your Dragon (live action) trailer played in the cinema, I had to work really hard to convince my brain I wasn’t seeing one of those AI-generated YouTube clickbait trailers like Back to the Future 4 of Schindler’s List 2.
