I've been running gdcparties.com for a few years now. Some shitty company BlueberryAI decided they'd just take all the source code for the work I've done and reskin it, advertising it as their own. Jokes on them...it was still linked to my events spreadsheet, and now their website looks like this 😉

Oh!Ware is a spiritual Mancala roguelike where every marble shapes the board and fate. Every pit is a choice and every marble, a desperate prayer.

It sounds like you have no actual experience with it so confidently speaking about things you don't know is a terrible idea. 🤦🏽‍♂️

When, in reality, doing that every time to "pirate" would be annoying AF and you couldn't play online - you'd be better off actually jailbreaking your console if you wanted to get stuff for free.

That's how it works now: the device it's on has to be connected to the Internet so the privileges can be *revoked* before they'll add them to the new device.

In Nintendo's imaginary scenario, we add the game to a console, turn the wifi off, add the game to a second console, then play on two devices

@nintendousa.bsky.social I couldn't play Club House Games with my kids last night because they had used the "virtual game card" on their Switch and then lost it and it died.

So until they find it and charge it, that virtual game card is just *gone* for me. It's an absolutely horrible system.

Every cool person who makes good things: ai is dogshit

Every lame person who created nothing before and creates nothing now: look at how amazing ai is

If Iran had nuclear weapons we were actually afraid of, we'd be leaving them the fuck alone.

We were actually going to hire you but our studio has been downsized by 90% and forced to pivot to predatory loot boxes for babies

More games should have an "antfarm" mode where you can choose the zoom and position and just let the game's ecosystem do its thing.

Maybe toss in a music player/show the song/artist.

Vibe mode 😂

The next person who calls me "Sha-kwill" is getting 30 seconds of silence with direct eye contact.

Would y'all believe that *Black American* people still get my name wrong sometimes?

Is Shaquille O'Neal not famous enough??? He literally puts his name and face on anything with little discretion 😂

Matthew Ball put out a 2026 games market analysis. It's striking what games are competing with (pic 1), and how this "Circle of Horror"'s psychologically similar to best-selling games (addictive/gambling-esque/simulate intimacy). Also, look how small indie games are! 2%! (pic 2)
