A very special line to me, and one that has proven repeatedly apposite* in learning about people's reactions to this game! Glad you enjoyed it ๐

Keyboards have too many keys; they stare like spider-eyes, & it's just WIERD, man! Now CONSOLES? Consoles I can get behind! Analogue sticks baby!

Fight well. I'll see that your remains are sent home to your families.
Moonlight's beauty weakens the androids. It's why they seek out sunlight
The peace you take for granted was the result of war. You dishonor the dead and the unborn when you refuse to fight.
Will all nations fall to tyranny of angels?
Been rewatching Golden Girls. Grew up with the dub, it's crazy how different the sub is.
Iโm so glad! Itโs lovely to hear that it moved people. What kind of series? Iโm open to it, Iโd just wanna know more details
only a real man has the balls to become a woman
(ngl I love this alternate universe where every GDC talk has accompaniment from a house band and thereโs a razzle dazzle host bridging the gaps between them
maybe everyone is sitting at those lil tables and eating food, like at an old timey cabaret)
dreamed that I was the MC and leader of the house band for the GDC indie games track. we absolutely smashed it and everyone was really impressed
afterwards Elton John congratulated me on a great show
โElton John!โ I exclaimed. โWhy are you at GDC?โ
โWhat, Iโm not allowed to be here?โ he said
(I would not have made this reply if the guy in fact was dead)
it's not "large volumes", but I /did/ write a 112-line erotic poem for @lovelyhellplace.bsky.social's Dread Delusion, which I remain very proud of ๐ www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTMR...
(also, was glad to read that the third man, like Tiny Tim, did NOT die!)
Terry Pratchett would write a novel about this man.
made a girl teleport this weekend, using magic. that was pretty cool

1. The anarchist cop who steals confiscated drugs and money to sabotage capitalism, one petty malignant act at a time
2. The woman scientist whose patience is tested by literally everyone around her
3. The billionaire media mogul crushed by a Daewoo
4. The best boy
4 types of characters I write
1. The most craziest suicidal madman ever, masking
2. Spiteful woman burning with hate that is actually love
3. Passive she/he/they who would die for them. Who would *live* for them
4. Witty clumsy magical jester who puts you in danger, but also save the day
tv with reporter and line go down above tv with kid play with ball from untitled goose game

4 types of characters I write
1. the saddest, wettest, most beautiful boy
2. traumatised lesbian intellectual doing her best
3. wotcher, cunt, iโm a swaggering bastard
4. powerful villain who kinda knows theyโre evil but decorum requires at least a fig leaf of moral excuse

yeah honestly this feels like the horribly supercharged next level of the whole โfacebook hijacks to ur brain by exploiting salience signals / natural arousal triggersโ thing
HA good good good! Aye that was meant to serve as an opportunity for mutual clocking for trans players, where Aphra chooses to give you the wink so you know youโre in certain company. Or, for cis players, an example of her desire to build bridges between different peopleโs experiences!
Still, I think we can keep going if we haveโฆ what is it Genevieve says? โA bridgeโ?
Thatโs what Missing Persons was meant to be, for all of us.
Oh!!!! I am so glad. Thank you for playing, and for engaging so deeply.
Iโm particularly glad the ending wasnโt quite (it sounds like) what you feared. It wasnโt meant to be pure grimness, pure sorrow.
Weโre already missing so many people. Weโll lose more yet. Thereโs no way to make that easyโฆ

My bedroom and office reduced to ashes. The metal walls and roof are largely destroyed, revealing the forest beyond.

Dread Delusion is up for GOTY!
โIt is the definition of the saying "more than the sum of its parts" โ every aspect of it is executed in service of another. This creates one of the most cohesive and fun RPGs Iโve played in a long timeโ
How is the shitlord who used to pay me $50 to write about Binary Domain for his game blog now advising a fascist unelected billionaire leader via Twitter wtf
