This Way Madness Lies is a great game and barely anybody bought it. It should be played by more people. If everybody here on @bsky.app banded together and bought a Steam copy and played it, well, that'd be a miracle and I would be forever grateful.

In Discworld, cities thrive because they welcome dwarfs, trolls, vampires, and humans alike. Ankh-Morpork works because everyone belongs. Funny how fiction can seem more humane than policy sometimes.

Virya is right.
Shoutouts to @froey.bsky.social one of the smartest people I know and one hell of a writter.

Also who can forget @enbykaiju.itch.io ? Just another kick ass dev, you aren't yet ready for what they are cooking!

And @that-wannabe-cat.itch.io who knows how to write great and raw games.

It’s time for our own collective shout. Who are you calling?

Remember: Stress you’re a repeat caller on this issue and that you heard about this controversy on the news. With Visa, ask for a supervisor once you hit a dead end. Calls should always last longer than 30 seconds

Leaf mentioned in the official itch discord server that the open case they have with Stripe right now is probably the most critical right now. Submit a complaint to Stripe here: stripe.com/legal/compla...

Bears mentioning that even if the games industry gets taken over by AI slop, I will always buy games made by real people who have bothered to actually make something.

I'm confident there are more people like me who will keep buying games made by actual humans. There is a market for your weird game.

The Internet Archive has rolled out an extremely effective new tool for searching for old Geocities GIFs.

I'd apologize for what I'm about to do to this website as a result, but that would be a lie, because I won't feel sorry at all

If you've enjoyed Cryptmaster, please consider sharing the news. Despite an IGF award, a 95% Steam rating and a free demo, the game has gone mostly unnoticed by both press and players. It's not just a typing game and there may still be people out there who would enjoy it!

After years and years of Disney pulling the "first gay" character bullshit, of they shelving series because they get "too gay", for directly cutting trans stories, we should be done expecting anything more from them

Wondering why Australia shouldn’t (consider) ban social media (games) for minors? China sets us an example. Thanks for the great team work @benegliston.bsky.social , @marcuscarter.com 🍻

China restricted young people from video games. But kids are evading the bans and getting into trouble
In China, many people see video games as ‘spiritual opium’. However, laws restricting young people’s play have proven difficult to enforce in practice.
