I tell people that if the government is covering up the existence of aliens, NASA is absolutely not involved, because astrobiologists can't keep a secret to save their lives

This is what the market-led policies of Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil have given us. They've put the profits of landlords and investment funds above ordinary people.
That's why I've decided to run in the Galway West by-election. It's time we had a radical shift in housing policy that puts people first.
Hi there! Thanks for hosting #TurnBasedThursday & I'm super excited for your demo, Alchemice looks stunning!!
I see your demo is out on March 5th - ours for Sparrow Warfare is out on the 6th & we made a tiny video about that choice that you might relate to 😅

Recently I've been taking another look at fitting movement model parameters from data and managed to derive some formulations that work in terms of starting and stopping times and distances - something that is potentially a lot more intuitive for designers to use.

Introducing... The Irish Games Fund - Stage 2
@outliersocial.bsky.social @dreamfeel.bsky.social @enigmastud.io @screenireland.bsky.social
www.imirt.ie/news/2026/1/...
Announcing Bog Bodies from Dreamfeel!
A "short hike”-alike 3d adventure set in a far future Ireland populated only by radioactive talking cats.
Players explore a late 19th c inspired landscape full of strange characters and stories...
As the Irish far-right align themselves with British far-right in some twisted idea of a common threat from 'invaders'. It's worth noting that British fascists are reverting back to the days of the National Front, when they hated white (Irish) Catholics also. Hear for yourself at 0.16 in this clip.
The Imirt Irish Game Awards are back for 2026, with new categories for Best Student Game and Best Experimental Game.
Submissions are open until February 9th! For further information on the awards and how you can submit your game to the show, please click here! - www.imirt.ie/news/2026/1/...
The Fallosophy beta has been live for 6 days.
Over 1,000 players have already tried to climb the history of ideas - and almost as many have fallen back to the beginning.
Given how many players keep climbing back up, we’re going to keep the beta on @itch.io going forward

When I talk about my historical research people are shocked at the brazen propaganda of board games produced during WW1. Things like “recruiting for Kitchener’s army” and “little soldier boy”. But this never went away, just adapted.
as in, if we want investment in games in Ireland we have to support the organisations doing it and shout about the impact it has
I'm really excited to take part in the Irish Games Fund, and I was delighted to help with IndieDev and Incubator etc, and we need all these to keep going for the future 🙏

Lovely 10 Year commemorative enamel pin from this year's IMIRT AGM.
I got to design this logo years ago, so I was thrilled when IMIRT reached out to me to update the logo. My favourite bit was switching out the D20 for a D10 for this commemoration (2015-2025).
I wrote a blog post about pathfinding and pedestrian simulation: www.psychicsoftware.com/2026/pathfin...
I will be doing the first pitch of Persevere at the @imirt.bsky.social AGM in just over an hour, as part of the IndieDev program (shout out to @ardan-ie.bsky.social also!). This marks the end of our IndieDev period, and the start of our road to release! Exciting! docs.google.com/presentation...
Oh my, I’ve been lied to all my life ><
Europe’s largest sea cliffs in Donegal.
It’s hard to describe how tall these are. Located in Donegal Ireland, these are Europe’s tallest sea cliffs. Lucky to see them recently. Similar to how difficult it was to photograph the Colca canyon in Peru.
Terry and I are going to be in Australia early Feb to early March, approx:
* Melbourne: 10-16 Feb
* Bit of travelling (Hobart, Moonta)
* Adelaide: 25 Feb-8 March
Let me know if there's book things or game things happening that I should know about!
Selfie. Yer man.
Two boxes of fish and chips.
Cliff walk on a cold but sunny day. Sea to the left, dangerous lighthouse in the distance.
Just wrapped another year of Ireland’s longest running Irish Christmas Gamedev party.
I've prepared a little blog post discussing the ideas behind the new Smooth Walking Mode we developed for UE's Mover plugin. This Movement Mode is also used in the new UE 5.8 GASP release!
