The Troy Baker roller coaster is him doing or saying something stupid, then enough time passes and some good performances accumulate that you go "Eh, everyone says something stupid occasionally," then he's like fuck yeah time to say something stupid again

What's really cool about this story is that it's about two wonderful success stories of independent Canadian developers creating original IPs that have remained popular for so long. Really appreciated their perspective on all of that, and what it says about the larger Canadian gaming industry.

We'll both be at @xpgaminginc.bsky.social here in Toronto on May 21 & 22nd. We'll be showing off the #NintendoSwitch version of our latest game, Neo Harbor Rescue Squad, and meeting with partners and colleagues in the industry.

What will the weather be by then? Who knows!

A24 confirms full Elden Ring movie cast as filming begins this week Furiosa's Tom Burke and Parks & Recreation's Nick Offerman are among those joining lead actor Kit Connor (Heartstopper).

Still pretty wild that A24 and Alex Garland are making this Elden Ring movie.
No idea what to make of it since it's still early of course, but it at least has me more intrigued than I would have been otherwise.

Still three weeks left to get your submissions in! I've already gotten a many responses which is good, but unfortunately they echo what I feared (and sadly expected): Black Game Developers are being hit harder on practically *all* fronts despite making up a smaller portion of the industry.

โ€ผ๏ธHey dev friends! Do I know anyone who would be interested in boothing our game Capy Castaway at BitSummit this year? Or if you know anyone who would be interested, please reach out! We're ideally looking for someone who is already in or going to Kyoto, and preferably (but not required) bilingual!

LMAO But Why Tho? Dying because of a shitty developer is not what I had on my bingo card.

We have 48 hours to figure out what to do for a new host and find a developer to help us.

Inside Montreal's Gamerella, the world's longest-running inclusive game jam Co-founder and co-director Gina Hara on addressing the barriers faced by equity-deserving people.

For my next local event feature, I spoke with Gina Hara, the co-founder & co-director of Montreal's Gamerella.
Impressively, it's the world's longest-running inclusive game jam.
Lots of great insight into running these events the past 13 years and knocking down barriers for equity-deserving people!

This will likely be my last dedicated "local event feature" for a few weeks, but that's only because there will be MANY more starting towards the end of May between the Canadian Game Awards, XP Game Summit, Toronto Games Week, Game Con Canada and a couple of other things.
Lots to be excited about!

BAFTA pulling a trailer for an autobiographical game about surviving sexual assault only hours before it was said to be a part of a showcase is an exceptionally bad look.
