You know, I've given Game of Thrones a roomy 6 years to breathe and gone back to rewatch it.

Just finished Blackwater and I'm willing to die on the hill with a sign that says Game of Thrones is still the greatest piece of television ever.

VILE: Exhumed may be banned for sale, but I refuse to let that stop people from playing the game.

It’s now available, for free, at WWW.VILEISBANNED.COM

Please share the site, share the game, and fuck anyone who tries to control storytelling and expression.

I've been waiting 2 years and 9 months but I finally got my nephew curious about gaming and got him playing Mario Kart World and he had a lot of fun. Loved the rewind far more than I thought and would giggle uncontrollably. I was tearing up, I can't wait for what the next few years might bring.

Did something a little different for my Dragon Quest 1 & 2 HD-2D preview and made a video! Give it all the likes and subscriptions YouTube can handle!

Looking forward to hopefully doing more video content during SGF and beyond.

I reviewed South of Midnight and I'm floored by it. It has some of the most beautiful level design and art around; the narrative is hauntingly strong and honors Southern Gothic literature perfectly. While the gameloop is repetitive, I never wanted to put it down.

My review:
REVIEW: 'South Of Midnight' Is A Love Letter To An Overlooked Community - But Why Tho?
Compulsion Games has created a love letter to the South, to its beauty and its stories in South of Midnight.

Pretty close to shutting off any sources of news for a few months. I think I need some head in the sand time.

It's simple, and I've done this sort of thing before, but I really feel like I'm learning norms and standards with this course. Also, I've never felt more game dev than picking up my controller to see how that feels compared to m&k.
On to the next

No GDQuest course today.
I've never been a creative person, but the PsychOdyssey doc has me inspired. I've been using the Post-its app to brainstorm game ideas and combine them to try and be more creative with ideas.

So I bit the bullet and started the GDQuest early access course. Going to try and post progress on here as I go to keep me honest. Been game dev curious for a few years, and really just interested to understand the process a bit better school.gdquest.com/products/god...

I'm sorry - are we just allowed to set up companies that aren't legally affordable? What are you? Thames Water? If you can't pay for what you use, you don't get to use it. You get to make money off the back of the work of people whom you don't pay? Get absolutely fucked. Go disrupt your own anus.
