Same. Let's kick some ass today!

Earring: equipped since I was 18
Tattoo: pending 🪡

Professionally: very excited about announcing the new Songs of Silence expansion

Personally: Want to make sure you also see what I see 👀

The Crownless King will be the next expansion in the Songs of Silence universe!

This is the story of the rogue ruler Thorn, his band of outcasts, and the choice of an heir that will determine the kingdom’s fate.

Безкоронний Король стане наступним розширенням всесвіту Пісень Тиші!

Це історія про володаря-розбійника Торна, його зграю вигнанців та вибір спадкоємця, що визначить долю королівства.

More findings from Steam Next Fest February 2026 in the thread:
bsky.app/profile/rcp....

You might have moved on from the February Next Fest, but it's a momentum engine — the afterglow is where breakouts truly shine.

I pulled the data 10 days later to check what's up, and, for some, post-fest WL growth exceeded fest growth. 82% kept gaining. Details in the charts ↓

🏰It's not HOMM.
🏛️It's not Total War.
🛡️It's not Banner Saga.

But if our indie game reminds you of them…
We're probably doing something right!

WE NEED TO TALK TO THE JAPANESE PRESS. ARIGATO IN ADVANCE

Valve shows more games crossing $100k+ each year. True.

20k new releases in 2025. ~800 netted >$100k

That's 4% of 2025 releases joining a club of ~6k out of 125k+ games on Steam who ever cleared that bar — across all years, still only ~5%

The floor isn't rising. The room is getting more crowded.

1,163 games out of 12,970 with revenue estimates earned > $100K gross (via gamalytic). By net revenue its more like ~800 games (~4%).

20,008 games were released on Steam in 2025 in total.

I finally got into the big leagues in Uma Musume

Uma Musume is a glorious roguelite cross media product and a huge step forward for mobile F2P

The most satisfying Chubs & Nubs combo to pull off in Mewgenics

Mewgenics referencing "the hole" from Junji Ito’s The Enigma of Amigara Fault is one of a thousand little details that make it peak.

This was not on my shopping list, but it's the last 3x packs of K-Pop Demon Hunters noodles

Windows Phone found in the office
I'm tempted to try using it for a bit

TF3 was not on my 2026 Bingo card

You still have time to pre-order Songs of Silence for Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5.

As Queen Lorelai you must defeat the ever-encroaching forces of The Silence.

Pre-order before Feb 1!

24 hours a year ago, huh
Let's see what I missed

Kicking off work in 2026

Trying out Rebelle and oh wow. Finally a drawing software that actually tries to mimic traditional art and color pigments.
Also a color picker that has OPACITY SENCETIVITY? AND I CAN LITERALLY MIX COLORS WITH IT? I am absolutely in love.

Some COFFIN aircraft should already be in testing by then, so we can expect Strangereal-flavored sci-fi for sure :)

There are some speculations that this might be Dison in the trailer, and he was already an ace by 2026

Regardless, there's a high chance we'll meet him again soon, even if only as a cameo (as it was in Ace Combat: Joint Assault)
