The prophecy has come to pass, the fated blade in its fated hand! ๐ก๏ธ๐น
Not going to GDC this year, but if you'd like to catch up I'm happy to jump on a call and stare blankly into the distance together as the world burns around us.
We made a videogame about this!
Atuel is a surrealist documentary videogame about a river that crosses a desert in western Argentina, its history, and how the climate crisis threatens its future.
It's 30 minutes long and completely free!

@allwillrise.bsky.social is shaping up to be fantastic as well! Environmental politics, beyond-human phenomenologies and complex speculative futures should be a whole genre within the indie game space!

That would be lovely ๐ค
Israeli soldiers were killed by brown people terrorism while Lebanese buildings simply disintegrate and Iranian school girls spontaneously stop being alive - similar to how Palestinian babies just instantly combust in well-documented examples written up by the NYT.
A GDC-relevant PSA:
Kikiโs Delivery Service is screening in 4K on the IMAX screen in Metreon next door on Thursday and Friday, and that TMNT II is also playing there on Friday. Go forth.
Not at GDC this year, but hereโs a couple scraps of free advice on networking for new folks:
โEven masks are becoming difficult to find. This is a huge mistake. I ask those who have the ability, especially foreign media, to reflect on this situation. What are people supposed to do under these conditions? This is truly a crime against humanity.โ
i'll be at gdc next week - here's a few ways you can make the most out of this B2B games ecosystem opportunity
1. come see my microsection of a microtalk on Tuesday when i speak about using found game materials for new work with the plunderludics group

I mean the point of a company like Informa, the entire business model, is to identify places where value is being generated with no input from them and capture those. They're rent-seeking squatters.
I'll be at GDC on a panel with a bunch of amazing worker organizers talking about how union campaigns are changing the industry for the better. If you'd like to learn more about workplace organizing come check out the talk on Wed. March 11 from 3:40-4:40pm!

Atuel is one of the most gorgeous, tranquil and unique experiences I have ever completed from beginning to end. I still can't believe it is freeโdefinitely check it out if you can!
Well sign me up.
Jim Scott would be proud.
Rogando por mas laburos vitalistas desde Argentina que rompan con la apatia tanto de los portenios como de las elites provinciales.

Israel is wiping entire families in Lebanon off the face of the planet, just like it did in Palestine
Nice companion to All Will Rise which is, of course, about saving a river.

looking for some narrative juice this weekend? Most of our games are on a discount right now - with 80 Days for less than a bus fare.
In a few days and we'll be at IGF with Mini Mini Golf Golf. It has been a crazy time and beyond what we expected for our very first game. Thanks to all that have supported us along the way, please say hi if you happen to be at GDC as well!

If you came to our opening last weekend: thank you!! It was wonderful and energizing to see so many familiar and new faces. We are excited to discover the potential of our new space together ๐๐

This is horrifying because it implies the Iranian school mistargeting was down to Claude layer in Palantir systems. Whatโs more horrifying is that if the rest of the article is accurate AI was a massive force multiplier for US/Israel strikes.
