Screenshot of a DuckDuckGo search for Invader Zim Roboparents Gone Wild message reads "No results found for Invader Zim Roboparents Gone Wild." It suggests I ask Duck.ai

Screenshot of a DuckDuckGo search for Invader Zim Roboparents First result is the Zim Wiki entry for Roboparents Second result is Invader ZIM - Roboparents Gone Wild, which is literally what I searched for in the other screenshot that gave me nothing

Nothing fucking works any more

Ooft I just post nonsense anyway 🤣

I still haven't worked out how to use this bloody app.

Thanks to the Horror Game Awards. I cannot believe this is real. ❤️

Thanks Peter. The long and short is I had a bad experience, one off experience with someone in the industry and when I pulled at how theyve secured positions of influence (chairman of the UK video game council etc) it just revealed a LOT that needs to change.

Angus, you're an angel. It shouldn't be this hard for the video games industry to regulate their council. You're amazing. Thanks for sharing

Massive thank you to @baftascotland.bsky.social for sending this today. #games #narrativedesign #videogames #makinggames #scotland

Fantastic talk tonight - big thanks to @englishscribe.bsky.social, @kimmacaskill.bsky.social and Will Byles for their insights! I love to see events like this in Scotland.

Thank you so much for coming along !!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Wondering how many people are praying to a white Jesus for the racial recasting of Snape.... #harrypotter #snape

We did it, Angus!

Thanks for the input. Let's hope it leads to something good for all

I'd really like it to be retroactive first. Maybe that's just me.

And again their contracts don't even mention adaptation. Can you see the concern ?

Which is what we're trying to change ...

*some authors are paid upfront.

Established ones. For clarity.

But adaptations still honour them

It's the same for tv writers, poets and short stories.

Why should game IP creators who write these stories be different?

As far as I'm aware the contract at the time didn't include adaptations and I'm talking to the people behind it. We have to remember this was a time before the transmedia hot trend we have now. Even if it did, why should they be treated differently to authors? Authors are paid upfront by publishers?

This is all tied in. The union recognize its not fair but their hands are tied unless contracts change. The creators have also said their piece.

Sign the Petition Credit the Until Dawn Game Creators

Please share.

The creators of Until Dawn were not credited in the movie because Game IP creators and writers aren't given the same rights as authors etc.

The game is iconic and studied by thousands...but Sony denied their names any merit.

Please help us by signing.

We need actual authorities on this and Valve ...see attached. Whatever philosophy you're hiding behind, please pull your arse out of it. #valve #kierstarmer #watchdog

The game itself weirdly isn't my issue (and it should be). The game and the devs are small, pathetic and pitiful.

Here's my big issue.

Why was this content legal to create in the first place? Why can't we identify these devs and why can't they be held accountable?

And then what? Kids? Animals?

The creator for No Mercy is American and has a patreon on which they are still collecting donations for what they made.

Are the FBI doing anything?

This game was available to children and adults and encouraged players to rape and torture their own family members.

To Valve, Steam and every other platform that doesn't feel it's right to moderate what goes on their platform. Allow me to remind you of the greatest show of all time (see attached).

If it isn't games about incest and raping women today, it'll be torturing black people, Jewish people tomorrow...
