My #GDC2026 Game Preservation Roundtable proposal, co-moderated by @borman.bsky.social, was formally accepted! 🥳
Too long has there been a complete lack of collaboration and communication between Industry and Institutional Game Preservation groups. It's time we start to fix that.

My D&D 5e / 5.5 character sheet web app is coming along! Considering it's my first time exploring JavaScript and React, I've learned a ton and I've been having a ton of fun

My #PAXWest2025 talk on Industry Game Preservation is complete!
I hope all who attended and listened to my stories enjoyed it! It's a messy, complex and often bureaucratic world, but it is where I call home

We all know the legendary aesthetic of the PS2, but did you know there was a 'Tool' dev kit variant that is the size of a PC? 👀
A fun discovery at work by a good friend of the team. I didn't even know this variant existed, let alone in Blue!

Guess I'm doing another Palworld playthrough!
I still wish desperately that they would expand the base building radius. It is the primary reason I stopped playing originally as it really ruined most of the ideas I had for base designs
