ICYMI! WHAT'S THIS? YOU'RE IN A DARK ROOM!

Back by popular demand (and several thousand cries of "YA DIE!"), THE DARK ROOM with John Robertson returns to #PAXAus for two hours of live-action videogame comedy chaos on Saturday.

Will you Go North? Find the Light Switch? Escape The Dark Room? Or will YA DIE! YA DIE! YA DIE!? (Chances are YA DIE.) 😈
Last time, brave adventurers packed the room, the queue stretched far and wide, and many unfortunate souls learned a harsh lesson: YA ARRIVE LATE! YA MISS OUT! YA MISS OUT! YA MISS OUT!

If The Dark Room is on your quest log, don't leave it to fate.

Mr John Robertson will also be around on Saturday for a meet & greet, photos, one personal item signed, and he'll have merch available too. More details on that will be revealed closer to the show. 😈

🚨 Another PAX Rising Indie Revealed! 🚨

Signs of Danger is an online and couch co-op physics-based roguelite:

Build your own skill tree to find game-breaking synergies, crafting guns & abilities that melt, burn, freeze and blow up your foes
Survive hazardous planets where every pixel is individually physically simulated: water flows, gas burns, liquids conduct electricity and terrain is fully destructible. Play solo, or with up to 3 friends in chaotic online and local multiplayer.

Built by a solo dev in a 100% custom engine, and heavily inspired by Noita and Risk of Rain, as well as old school classics like Worms and Soldat.

Find Signs of Danger at PAX Rising at PAX Aus 2026.

@Madrox Not a Nobel?!?!

[Tycho Brahe @TychoBrahe]

No, that is because I'm dumb. But I will admit to being pretty demoralized.

[Miguel Angel Constanza @Radical_Ed]

@TychoBrahe Is the text for the comic about Sony betraying us all taking so long because you’re condensing the matter of a black hole into words, so no argument can escape its gravity?

@Keyblader007 @DixonBrandywine You don't gotta tell me

One of the most interesting things about this is that people routinely use AI tools to make the kind of joke so far this legend mastered decades ago.

[Variety @Variety]

Weird Al Yankovic pulled out of a commercial on which he was making a "nice pile of money" after discovering it was for AI.

“I’m not going to mention any names, but they told me it was for a business. It was business software that would increase productivity. I said, ‘Oh well, yeah, sure, I could do that.’ And then a week before we’re supposed to shoot it, I find out this is AI. And I thought, ‘Oh no, I can’t be the poster boy for AI, forget it.’ So I felt bad about kind of pulling out at the last minute. But yeah, I’m not down with that.”

@forbiddenvoid As I would learn!

[Tycho Brahe @TychoBrahe]

Yeah. A formative memory for me is seeing "Gaddafi" spelled three different ways on the same newsstand.

[Ismail Saeed @Slipgate0]

@TychoBrahe @EndiePosts All I will really contribute here is that there are people speaking Arabic who will use a z sound or a certain kind of DH sound for the same characters.

You might hear of Ramadan or Ramzan, or the character duad or zuad.

@GamersNexus I was reliably told that only a single core was sufficient in perpetuity!! 🧐
