For @samsorensen.bsky.social's #OVER/UNDER I created WEATHERVANE, an in-universe themed combat simulator. Using it, our faction was able to predict the outcome of any battle with a high degree of confidence. It helped us price mercenary contracts and go into any combat knowing the expected outcomes.

#over/under is a currently-running 1400-player wargame played entirely on Discord

players are divided into factions with conflicting goals + themes. besides 'faction bosses', players' actions are limited to voting on stuff, earning money + doing text-based roleplay

A logo that says OVER/UNDER in white text on a hot pink background OVER/UNDER Written and run by Sam Sorensen (samsorensen.blot.im). Programming by ty cobb (me@tycobb.club, wishlist his videogame, discone, on Steam). Development and production by Sean McCoy. Based on A Pound of Flesh by Sean McCoy, Luke Gearing, Donn Stroud, Jan Buragay, and Jarrett Crader. October 2025. Mothership geopolitics wargame, real-time and play-by-post, for one or more Wardens and hundreds or thousands of players. Set during a month-long crisis on Prospero’s Dream in the years before the events of A Pound of Flesh, there are six factions active on the Dream: the Golyanovo II Bratva, the Local 32819L, the Solarian Church, the Tempest Company, the Canyonheavy Collective, and the Stratemeyer Syndicate. The game runs from October 14th to November 11th. At the end of the game, bosses that have achieved their faction’s objectives—as well as the Dream’s ten richest players—win a special shirt and patch.

yeah it's pretty harsh. if you're at 70% and someone leaves a negative review it pushes into Mixed (really bad obviously) and takes way more positive reviews to recover. this is worse the higher the score

The game in which the premise is "the odds are real but gamers struggle to conceptualize or even believe them" has negative reviews from gamers who don't believe the odds are real (game: Unfair Flips)
A 'Not Recommended' Steam review with 4 hours played Review text reads: It's a decent idea for a game where you flip a coin and depending on your percentage chances you get heads or tails. However the odds are a lie. You will flip tails 100 percent more than you will heads no matter what your percentage is. Even when you get it up to 60% you will still flip tails way more often then you will heads. The Dev can try to defend it, but when I flip the coin 2500 times and only hit heads a third of the time even when at 60% then the odds are broken or a lie. I've also watched gameplay and seen fellow players have the same flips so I know it isn't just me having bad luck. Still not bad for $2, but I'm saying no because the game is coded against you instead of it being fully on chance and luck.

Hey friends, I'm trans. My name is Kara and my pronouns are she/her. I've written a little more on the image (see alt text if needed). Otherwise, it's nice to meet you!
A screenshot text statement. The text is black on a neon green background. At the top, in bold letters. Hello. I'm Kara. It’s nice to meet you. Below, the body text: Hey friends, I'm trans. My name is Kara, my pronouns are she/her. If you know me this may be a surprise. Or not, that's also allowed. In short: I've known for quite some time and been out in private when needed. Overall things are good. I'm mostly happy. The world however, is a mess. So it goes. And it goes, and goes, and goes. It never stops going. Am I afraid? Sure, in increments. For myself, a little. I'm worried about my career, about violence, about restricted access to life-saving care, about the things people say quietly, about the things people say loudly. But I'm more worried about those more vulnerable, with less relative privilege than me, struggling against a seemingly relentless tide. Help them, however you can, please. "Coming out" is scary and cringe. It is a fundamental altering of the relationships between you and everyone you ever knew. Maybe one day we'll live in a world where this isn't 'a big deal'. "I moved house, I got a new job, I'm trans, I’m really into baking now. What's new with you?". To learn something this big about yourself later in life is a funny thing. Like finding new rooms in your home that were never on the floorplan, and now you get to explore and decorate them. You're telling me under this awful carpet there was pristine Victorian tile the whole time? Wow! If I know you and you have questions, feel free to message me. If you don't know "what to do", don't do anything, just continue. I am the same person as before. Despite everything, it's still me. I would like to extend a special thanks to the people who already knew and were really cool about it, especially in complex social and work situations. Thanks. — Kara Ling

Gamers discovering how statistics work is one of my favorite genres of post

Just realised I can't view any 18+ pages on Steam because my account doesn't have a credit card + none of the credit cards I own are supported. @valvesoftware.com this is so busted lol, my account is literally 18+ years old on its own

i'm talking about design choices not biz decisions but even then its complicated. in Robert Kurvitz' own words DE wouldn't exist without the millions in capital they raised + its attached strings. also not many people know this but the dev team walked out 6 months before launch, it was not Good
A screenshot of text that says: Against public and private power, the idea to counter-pull against the dual abyss. (It doesn’t hurt to be corrupt either – go for it! Be as corrupt as possible. Those who want you to remain lily-white have no ideas and no principles to compromise for.) A screenshot of text that says: We had just one thing left to do – build a revolutionary cRPG. Okay, not just one thing. We also had to learn to code, write in English, raise millions sixty months of work. and all the producers walk out six months before release leaving us with one heroic programmer and one Polish white-label company to QA a million-word long RPG.

A quote from Garry Newman [Garry's Mod] I think about often
A screenshot of text on a website The title text says: I don’t know anything The body text says: If you’ve never made games before you have a huge advantage. If I’d have had any industry experience before making GMod I probably would have never made it. Your naivety is a huge advantage, it’s your edge. Don’t try to emulate people who are in the industry – do your own thing, make your own mistakes, find your own way. It’ll lead you down a bunch of paths that no-one will ever take because they know the ‘right way’. The world needs those paths explored.
