Yesterday we announced that we are doing a Kickstarter for STARS REACH. We're doing this because the climate for games investment is terrible. We've raised a lot of money, and expect to keep raising. Being able to show support from players helps. Even a Follow goes a long way:

The Customer Service for @UPS is the worst. A package delivered to an old work address by mistake. They can tell it's a wrong address but won't give me any way of correcting it or talking to a human, so it's going to end up returned to the inconvenience of everybody

It's fine to do automated systems for things! But you have to still allow a human bailout eventually rather than endless phone trees that have me literally screaming in frustration

We're doing focus groups for Roblox Studio for developers on other engine who don't use ours. We need more people who identify as female. Let me know if you're interested!

The Elephant Collection's ten games are packaged vertically in a high-rise, with beautifully themed floors, achievements, and behind-the-scenes anecdotes/history! We're putting in a ton of work making the collection feel extra special for y'all ❤️

The trust isn't repaired, but this is a big improvement. I'm putting my pitchfork away, but also keeping an eye on the progress of the various open source engines.

SF the worst big city in the country for issuing new housing permits so far this year. This is why our rent is so high, a major contributing factor to homelessness, and why the state must/is intervening.

Not because of how much it shakes out to, but because a partner who can and will change how much of your revenue you owe them *after* you've made and released your game needs to be avoided like the plague.

Don't often weigh in on the clusterfuck of the day, but in case it needs saying: @unity rug-pulling a new fee structure on devs is an astonishing scumbag move. blog.unity.com/news/plan-pri… (Thread)

Truly terrible move for mobile developers, especially hypercasual. This seems likely to undermine Unity's dominance as an engine on mobile over time

Unity will soon charge devs per-install after a certain threshold. I'd like to express my concerns regarding privacy (tracking installs/downloads), preservation and changing the whole business model while devs are using the engine for their projects. 🫤 blog.unity.com/news/plan-pri…

As I reported on @ESPN1000 just now… the shooting at Guaranteed Rate Field during a #WhiteSox game was indeed an accidental discharge by one of the women “grazed” by the bullet. She reportedly snuck the gun in past metal detectors hiding it in the folds of her belly fat.
