I make videogames (Push Me Pull You / Untitled Goose Game / Big Walk) with @house_house_

5 years today since we released Untitled Goose Game.
Thank you for playing our videogame. 🥲

To mark the occasion, something from the goose archive — a proof-of-concept for a hypothetical Untitled Goose Programme made back in 2021.

In 2023 I completed my PhD, after 6 years — my thesis explored the uneasy situation of videogames behind the scenes of a public museum.

Now that we're back on here, we want to express our support for the Palestinian people, and their right to self-determination, safety and happiness.

An end to this genocide.
An end to apartheid.

Free Palestine.

@dangolding @BRKeogh I liked the bit where he clarified that as well as killing people in videogames you also kill goblins

[Michael McMaster @mjmcmaster]

this has been said before but the best and simplest thing the government could do to support the cultural production of videogames in Australia is to raise the dole

[Michael McMaster @mjmcmaster]

excellent writing by @BRKeogh explaining why our renewed government funding is an okay way to build + support a """creative industry""" but insufficient to sustain the kind of messy creative practices that basically all of our best games have come from https://t.co/5FPhMxjJXs

[Michael McMaster @mjmcmaster]

i.e. it is insufficient as arts funding, in the way that all arts funding in this country is insufficient

@_MichaelOswell_ all of your cores are already on full blast rendering ligatures and glyph alternates

@BRKeogh @GuardianAus that's right, I said Brendand

[Michael McMaster @mjmcmaster]

@BRKeogh @GuardianAus this is fantastic Brendand — and summarised so well in a rare banger of a byline
