The Draw Steel quick start adventure is super cool and very easy to run via the Codex VTT, I'm a huge fan of this app and system already. Feel like it actually makes DMing online fun again.
BLUESKY IS A WEBSITE THAT TURNS (post by jay.bsky.team claiming that bluesky is made with AI) INTO (picture of bluesky not working)
hah, Mouse P.I. For Hire has literal "monster closets": doors with skulls on them to signify where the enemies will come from in an encounter but that don't actually lead anywhere, it's a cool idea.
Someone modded their VTuber character into Baby Steps! There's a nexusmods link in there in case anyone else wants to figure out how to do the same thing with other models <3

Quake is 30 years old this year but also so is Duke3d!
Windows 98 Plus: Architecture

You could watch The Super Mario Galaxy Movie today. OR you could save yourself an hour, along with 15 bucks, and watch (for free!) my video retrospective on Hollywood's first attempt to center a movie around Mario: youtu.be/-betOrU-xU4
Been coming back to the Build engine games again this week, Death Wish got me thinking about it. So I guess I'm giving Mapster32 another try. Really like what I've played of Wizordum and the editor for that game so far as well.
Unsurprisingly, Death Wish 2.0 is spectacular. I love most of the changes in this version. What I've always loved with DW is that it perfectly understood the assignment: it gives you a metric shitton of TNT with hordes of enemies to blow to smithereens.
Here are Dave and David's full unedited comments for those interested:

Our (@mahliann.bsky.social, @marcuscarter.com, and I) book GAME STUDIES: A CRITICAL INTRODUCTION TO THE FIELD is officially OUT everywhere in the world except the US for some reason. So here is an actual thread about why we wrote it and what we were trying to achieve with it.

Attempted to make a climbing wall in Quake lol. The cheese ramp returns.
I walked into my wife’s office this evening while she was streaming this song, and for one brief, confused moment, I was both astonished and proud that she was listening to the Etrian Odyssey soundtrack

Probably a good time to repost a bunch of games that reject photorealism in favor of a more hand-crafted, stylized and tonal immersion.

I was asked to give my thoughts on generative AI usage in games - here they are!
Should really be a term for wanting to do 3D level design but not sure of what to make. "Block out block" or something.
Dan Dan, a cool and neat game made by a player, popularized by the community as a fun thing to do, now scalped on eBay for a limited run premium product.
Something doesn't feel right about that. Kinda feels, antithetical to the whole thing...?

every British guy between the ages of 38 and 52 has intense, borderline troubling nostalgia for some insanely unplayable looking Amiga game called like “Bonky’s Quest”

Watching a demo of how you can turn every NPC in your RPG town into somebody who says "That's right — you *are* the four LIGHT WARRIORS. You make a great point! The bridge to the main continent *does* need to be repaired, and you're just the person to do it."
I have a new piece up at @rockpapershotgun.bsky.social — it’s about when I got hacked in Dark Souls 2, used hacker tools to unhack myself, and then talked to my hacker years later
