@PleasantKenobi As someone who specifically works in licensed video games - we pay the licence because it increases the sales by more than the cost. I think that the UB products so far have aptly demonstrated that is also the case here.

I think anyone who sees my tweets would know about this already - but this rules so far, and the writing and narrative design in general is genuinely so fresh and funny

@AliasVEDH Who would be the dream guest for Hijinks?

@PleasantKenobi It's literally two of MaRo's twenty lessons learned. Resonate with things people know, and piggyback those themes to teach game mechanics.

New post: Infinity Is Trash (And That's Okay)

A blog about generative AI, infinite television series, and Spelunky.

@SimoRoth 2 years is about what it took me. Combination of personal projects and home schooling kids through COVID.

[Jesse Kurlancheek @kurlancheek]

We recently opened hiring for a number of associate / entry-level game designer roles. This is exciting and a great opportunity. While looking at and talking to a lot of candidates, some things stood out to keep in mind when applying for jobs.

No surprises here but a 🧵(1/18)

Excited to share this piece on the archaeology and history of Elden Ring! I was very glad to get the opportunity to write about the political implications of lore in the game.

Thanks to @nielsen_holly and @ArchaeologyGame for chatting with me.
