I just discovered the Indie Web trend and suddenly I see a spark of hope for the Internet.

What are good newsletters about games? Less interested in reviews, more in critique, game studies and game design theory and practice. Halp!
So so so proud of you @awstein.bsky.social β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ
See you at Amaze! So excited for this!
Screenshot from the game Clair Obscur : Expedition 33. This is a Victory screen that displays a 22:43 timer on a boss.
10h in I'm obsessed with Clair Obscur : Expedition 33!
Unsurprisingly, I love the story, but more surprisingly, I also love the combat.
Little design thread π§΅ on why I spent 23 hecking minutes beating this boss (yes, I need to learn how to parry) and enjoyed every second of it!

Same for me with the difference itβs about turnips because of Animal Crossing.
My friend Alan has released another cool puzzle game, you should check it out!
I am not a committed enough fan to be invited to the Nintendo Switch 2 preorder. Long gone are the times when I was a Nintendo Ambassador and I could buy a limited 3DS π Nintendo, I still love you.
The graphic design of the cover is so cheap, truly ugly π€¦ββοΈ
And the thing which still bother me the most about Switch 2 is the HORRIBLE design of the game boxes.
Maybe itβs just another push towards going full digital.
Today I played a bit of the newly released Expelled! By @inkle.co and wow. It is an excellent game, full of humor, wit and great moments. Itβs an excellent story about women and troubling times. Do yourself a favor, itβs so worth it.

I didnβt! I was starving π€£ but why in central everything closes at 9 π€¦
Eating in Central London has become absolutely crazy. A guy offered me 20$ to buy my place in a queue for Katsu Curry as the place was about to close. It was 20:30.

This. Horizon did that to me on a side quest which was completely unwinnable for me due to low level (so also not lvl check on entering) and forced me to reload an early save losing a lot of time. On their defense they patched that afterwards but it was really bad.

Yes, I'm religious. I believe in the Holy Trinity.
Not very happy with the trend of souls like combat in metroidvania games. I think it unnecessarily raises stress and takes away from the pleasure of exploration and finding hidden places. Both Metroid and Castlevania were great at keeping a bit of challenge without being brutal.
I donβt want to sell my flat to Riccitello, though.
What about John Slattery as Riccitello?
Thinking of all the game which wonβt be preserved and will just disappear thanks to Unity stunt. Itβs going to be very bad for our culture.
