🌸 Ravens in bloom

Good morning, Vancouver!

You want the best italian resto in Vancouver? It is this little walk in on Hastings. Holy F the food is good.

Ozymandias I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert . . . Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed: And on the pedestal these words appear: ‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!’ Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

The Balatro Timeline — LocalThunk It’s been approximately 3 years since I began work on Balatro - and in that time I have personally documented almost nothing about the journey. This is something that has bothered me since the game la...

I've had parts of this written down for a while - but I thought it was about time to document the detailed version of what happened during Balatro development

It is kinda funny that people are going wow Canada seems pretty united and pissed off and yeah I guess threatening to take over someone’s homeland and trying to economically ruin them might make folks a little upset that’s wild

An dusty, industrial looking control panel in a wall. There are two big white square buttons on it. The one on the left has a red border and the letter 'i' touching the bottom, representing a person stuck to the ground (the dot of the i being their head). The 2nd button also has a red border, but inside the button is an upside down stickman figure, arms and legs spread out. To indicate this person is floating around helplessly in zero-gravity.

You know who should've won an Oscar last night? The person who designed the little 'Gravity on / off' buttons in Alien Romulus.

Excited to announce this
new game, for me a personal project of the last year and my first chance to be a lead writer.

Hilarious

That’s… some unfortunate game writing.

Caught Orbital + Crystal Method at the Vogue tonight in downtown Vancouver. “Awesome show, great job!”

Respect! Appreciate your decision.

Playing Octopath is so relaxing and chill. I flowstate on it for hours.

Fear and Hunger is hard, but in a very fun and enjoyable way. I just wish the dialogue wasn’t full of spelling and grammar mistakes. Hire a real Game Writer!

Lafarge lights!

Cryptmaster demo is free and really fun. Try it!

Happy Burns Day!

Is there a man, whose judgment clear
Can others teach the course to steer,
Yet runs, himself, life's mad career,
Wild as the wave,
Here pause-and, thro' the starting tear,
Survey this grave.

Is there a whim-inspired fool,
Owre fast for thought, owre hot for rule,
Owre blate to seek, owre proud to snool,
Let him draw near;
And owre this grassy heap sing dool,
And drap a tear.

Also have Cryptmaster on my docket

Lotta people talkin up Fear and Hunger. Who’s playin?

So much going wrong here, my eyes are all out of focus

Man, I feel like this is everything @notcrucial.bsky.social hates about JRPG dialogue

RIP Lynch.
