I'm back with a new episode about "The Long 90s". @jemgilbert joins me to explain what the concept means, discuss connections between culture and politics and the opening of utopian possibilities: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

New Object Oriented up on 🎭MASKS🎭 in videogames! I talk about mystery, becoming something else, playfulness, anonymity and the Jungian psychology of the Persona series: getobject.net/post/object-or…

I've been thinking about the incompatibility of videogames as they exist with climate change so I've written something about why the next gen of consoles should be the last and why this would be good, actually... getobject.net/post/the-clima…

Fantastic article that I think gets to the core of why I increasingly find giant open world games rather boring and lifeless. I'll take a small, intimate and living world over a giant open world any day.
Just published an article about @cosmoddd's Tales From Off-Peak City and why I love small videogame places:

New Object Oriented is on 👚CLOTHES👖. Why they are microtransactions' Trojan horse, what Hitman tells us about their symbolic power, and why stat buffs are kind of real if you really think about it: getobject.net/post/object-or…

Insightful perspective here. Part of my inspiration for OPC was showing how a focused, intimate space could still pack drama. Not unlike a stage set, or a circus tent.

I've written a thing about Sludge Life, getting anti-climb paint on me as a kid, transgressive relationships to space, urban exploration and the politics of space: getobject.net/post/reignitin… #videogames #sludgelife (cc @doseone @terrivellmann)

Never understood why people often make flight/space-combat sims without cockpits. Speaking of which, here are some of PC gaming's finest cockpits: pcgamer.com/uk/pc-gamings-co…

This one's my cast for a massively overlooked indie. Great little solo developed RPG with an amazing atmosphere and pacing.

Why is it that Doom was full of keys and a decade later, Half-Life 2 had none? My contention is that this is not a coincidence and you can read the reason here: getobject.net/post/object-or… #videogames #doom #halflife #fps

For anyone who backed the Kickstarter, please take a moment to check this out 😊
As promised, I've had a think about the best way to take Object Oriented forward.
Here you'll find a survey with an explanation of what I've got in mind and a chance to provide your feedback on it: tinyurl.com/4yxjbkau
Looking forward to hearing what you think!
