Hood Cyberpunk - Unwinnable Cyberpunk stories don’t generally want, or need, to change society. It seems, rather, that they’re perfectly content partying in the rubble.

I've reported 2-3 stories in my career that have sucked the spirit out of my body and this was one of them. But! Seeing the response of the fgc to help their brother genuinely put it right back. Im humbled to have been trusted with this. Help your neighbors friends those in need are all around you.

Picked this up and played with my partners right away. Our Arcadia became a place of glitching dinosaur mounts, infinite cats, and a lot of unsuccessful flirting with NPCs. We had tons of fun and lots of laughs. I can't wait to bring this one to a bigger group!

For this year's Black Voices in Gaming Showcase I pitched making a virtual space and recreating Justin Woodward in low poly glory. Along with two former students, we had a lot of fun building a new BVIG Headquarters. Was a blast to get to work on, so look forward to more! @bvigaming.bsky.social

More people should listen to @tressiemcphd.bsky.social

When people say AI is inevitable, let them know the future isn’t settled.

GB Studio opened up the door for a lot of people who wanted to get into making Game Boy games but didn't know how. Now there's an engine for N64! Tools like this make me so optimistic about creating stuff.

12 years later, some people's understanding of game journalism remains very poor. This is the current generation of people who care about "ethics".

What was missing for me was knowing for sure what the troglodytes (not really a fan of that name for them) the summit meant to them.

Like impossible, sure, but they had a whole infrastructure based on people attempting to climb the summit. What made them give up if they spent generations there

Unwinnable subscribers saw an excerpt of this last month, but here's the much, much longer convo I had with Autumn back in December about cultural criticism, my process, and a long, ongoing battle with alienation from my own taste and craft. A little rambly, apologies
