Ugh, so sorry to hear that Ojiro. I’m glad your kid is doing better, and it’s so nice to have you back! ❀️

A horizontal layout of the illustrated 2026 Capy Castaway keyart. It features Capy swimming in a circular body of water surrounded by lilypads and yuzu, with Corvi the crow flying overhead. A mirror image of the semi-circle world below can be seen on top, with a dragon-like creature's head looking down from above. On the upper world, lots of objects are on the grass, including a bicycle, animal shed, cardboard box, garbage bin with a raccoon poking out, map board, umbrella, chair, large wooden spoon, a white squirrel peeking out at an acorn, and some discarded coffee cups.

I'm super excited to be able to finally share the brand new keyart I illustrated for our game @capycastaway.com!!

I put a lot of thought, love, and little references throughout, and I'm super proud of how it turned out 🧑😭

Lmao. No it’s a good idea, but maybe the world isn’t ready for β€œsquinting” as a core mechanic yet πŸ˜…

iirc, the pixel junk series was inspired by exactly this (except, you know, 1080p) I think racers stuck to it, but the other games had scrolling

The unfortunate reality of gamedev, esp live service. I don’t think they ran out of money, it just didn’t make sense for the founders to keep pouring money into Highguard. Games are so hit-driven and momentum based that its very very unlikely Highguard would pick up after its slow start

β€œFranchise” when they mean series still at large πŸ˜”

A new website about PC games, from me, @brendyc.bsky.social and @jonhicks.com.

Reader-supported, which means no ads, no guff, and lots of games blogging about delightful things to play. If you liked our work on RPS, we think you'll like @jank.cool.

Is what Affleck saying all that interesting though? He's saying "this thing can't replace what I do, but maybe it'll replace this thing [that isn't my job]" and that "genAI's capabilities have been overhyped by investors". This is the conclusion everyone comes to!

Let me know if you wanna chat about my experience with hyper meteor! tl;dr I think it can be worth it, but it was more effort than I expected (not just the tech, but adding content/features for a β€œfull-size” game)
