The self and the cyberself in quiet introspection

"ME! IT'S ME WHO HIRED YOU!" says Caroline, our little rambunctious client. Pixel is shown in the part meeting her client for the first time.

Shown in the middle of the screen is a classic dossier folder with some unreadable pages. They appear to be old case files, some cold cases waiting to be reheated.

Changing camera views, you're brought in close to sniff out clues on Caroline and her nanny Doreen. Chemicals, Snot, Tears and a Bug Lead make up an odd collection of smells to connect.

A snippet of a major moment when you've put together clues to the case. The background is filled with the moment Pixel is able to piece together from her collected clues and smells. Across from her, Mr. Deerest is pleased to see Pixel isn't accusing him of a crime....yet...

We've been working away at our new game and have more to share 🐰🐰

We've got the intro of the game complete and are now working to polish it further for a full-fledged Demo. But most importantly we've got a new name for the game:

🖤 On The Nose 🤍

The volume of games this NF was overwhelming. I had press telling me they wholesale deleted any email mentioning NF because they were utterly swamped. It's a great extra beat in a campaign but it's not make or break for most.

It's wonderful that it's increased conversations about your game though!

This NF was particularly brutal, you needed so much momentum going into it to get any meaningful featuring. Your numbers are not bad at all vs others Ive seen.

Glad you've kept your demo up. I think people downloaded more than they could play. I hope you still see continued WL uplift this week!

Sending you big love. You rock and I can't wait to see what you get up to next

A handful of little gaps in my GDC schedule if anyone wants to meet to talk @rpgsite.net and games it should cover, or to hear about the mysterious things we're doing next.

I'm so sorry to hear this Zoe. BUT I'm mega excited to see what you do on your own channels! Sending you loads of luck, not that you'll need it x

Zoe Delahunty-Light videogame lore addict, writer, flesh vessel. lesbian.

Sadly my role as Video Producer on Eurogamer's YouTube channel has been made redundant. After 7 years it's a heart-breaking goodbye, but I'm thrilled to announce that I'll be continuing to create the deepest of dives into videogame lore on my own YouTube channel! 🔍

Hello everyone. I come with the sad news that as you are no doubt already aware, we're saying goodbye to several of our friends and colleagues here at Eurogamer. Leaving us are Tom Orry, our editorial director; our video team of Ian Higton, Zoe Delahunty-Light, and Alix Attenborough; Alex Donaldson, our editor-at-large; and Will Judd, who worked across Digital Foundry, hardware and deals. I'll start with Tom, who over the past year-plus had made himself a hugely valuable source of advice, expertise, desert-dry humour and world class poker faces (I think we just about made him laugh once, for a moment, on his final day). Tom initially began the role when Tom Phillips was our editor-in-chief here, mostly working away diligently in the background in a two-Tom-tandem doing editorial director things, before taking on a more prominent role on the site itself over the past 11 or 12 months, gracing us with some signature console nostalgia and unjustifiably intense Project Gotham Racing enthusiasm. Tom, Dom, Alex and I, along with the rest of the team, worked together closely on what a 'new Eurogamer' might look like last year, and his experience in running multiple games media sites was consistently our rock to lean on. While he may have initially seemed an outsider of sorts compared to Eurogamer chiefs of old - at least to some on the surface, coming from his 20-plus years across our sister sites VG247 and USGamer, and before that the cult-favourite site he founded in our once-rival VideoGamer - I can't stress enough how much Tom 'got' Eurogamer. His goal was for us to be at the heart of the big stories that mattered most to our readers with original, diligent reporting and on-the-button commentary, and that will absolutely continue. In immaculately on-brand, limelight-dodging Orry style, Tom opted to sneak his farewell into this past weekend's What We've Been Playing column, but I'll be damned if he gets away with it that easily. Sorry Tom. Here's what he had to say…

From myself and the whole team at @eurogamer.bsky.social, a very fond farewell and huge thank you to our friends and colleagues (thread).💙
