Like many, I’m finding this place more and more detestable and depressing than it is useful or fun. I check it infrequently, but I’m over on that sky app almost exclusively, now, and will eventually, I think, move there permanently. Same user name as here. See you there I hope!

At the #SFMoma for their exhibit with TheMix (@indieexchange). It’s pretty cool to see games in a modern museum space and see that they “get it.” “Are games art?” debate is over, but if your exhibit doesn’t have them playable like this then you’re doing it wrong. #GDC2024

For @Aftermath_site's Inside Baseball week, I wrote about how I got my start on 1UP forums along with folks like @JeffGrubb, @Tolkoto and more, the forum-to-journalism pipeline, and how watching that site die prepared me for the career I have now. aftermath.site/1up-forum-pos…

Our new interview is with @AREA5! We talk to @ryanodonnell, @talkingorange, @jasonbertrand, and @CesarQuintero about creating The 1UP Show and working with Naughty Dog on Grounded 2. “As the years go on, The 1UP Show gets more and more memory-holed.” youtu.be/9KS0vXOXGCQ

Hey! I’m gonna be around @Official_GDC this year! Devs and Publishers, have you seen Grounded II yet? Would you like some Area 5 storytelling magic of your very own? Let’s talk 🤝 youtu.be/SC3C7GMMfDU?si=VeAW…

It’s probably worth pointing out that just because you buy a game, it doesn’t mean that the developer has instant access to that money. Arrowhead folks are probably pulling their hair out trying to secure financing to pay for more servers for Helldivers 2.

Good progress toward the goal! Any small amount is helpful. Thank you! <3
You may know from listening to RebelFM that my dear friend Chris passed away from cancer on Christmas Day. At his family's request, our friend group is managing a GoFundMe to help his wife and daughter. We're so very grateful for even the smallest help: gofundme.com/forchrispeters
