Meet @rrza.bsky.social, one of our Sex With Friends devs, seen here bravely demonstrating the game using some cutting-edge props because actual footage would break every platform guideline known to man. It’s awkward. It’s educational? It’s available now on Steam. bit.ly/42Ma862
Mom this is what I've been doing at work
I'm so sorry
Just went to a clown workshop and I'd like to let you know -
I will no longer be an amateur clown. I will clown to my full potential. I will honk to my fullest.
Thank you.
BRICS was BRIC before South Africa joined.
It's convenient to have 'S' as the first letter of your country's name. Nice and easy to add to an acronym.
What if it started with like an 'M'?? BRICM??
Oooo I haven't really seen mid-combat gold spending in a deck-builder! Sounds like fun to build around, gold has been gated to use in "shop nodes" for too long.
"Oh, the player prefab is a variant. Let's see what the parent is!"

I really want to make games but I’m also on holiday and don’t want to make games
It's so much easier to play Supervive with new players because everyone is on the same screen at the same time.
"Come here, let me show you something," is actually something I can say. Really hard to do that in League when I'm 5 screens away most of the time. Also hard to do in FPS Battle Royales.
what's a "landline"? 🤡
Weirdly enough, I have some skull art ☠️

Here's all the Kickflip pitch art I made for QCF Design a while back 🧵
First is my favourite:
Will you be changing your surname for consistency?
What balancing issue? 👻
That's all. Thanks Bluesky!
I'll probably write about a bunch of Super Friendship Arcade games next time.

What is a game? A miserable pile of clicks!
Hire and train devs to ship projects, then get some good moolah! Or, ya know, cut corners to make more. The final goal is to ship your Life's Work. But is that even possible?
