Turns out, @CitizenSleeper is false advertisement: I played it last night, and suddenly, it was 3AM, and I barely slept at all!
A fantastic game, brilliantly written, and masterfully applying the addictiveness of "one more turn" (at the expense of this citizen's sleep).
A fun game to play when returning to the office: is my throat sore because the AC was way too cold, or is it Covid? 🙃

I mean sure some of us might suffer serious long-term health consequences but at least we get to really *be* there for PLACEHOLDER - QUARTERLY DELIVERABLES SYNC

RT's appreciated
It feels strange that some games ask their players if they want to use DX or Vulkan. How are folks supposed to choose? Why would they even know what it means?

1044 THANKS YOU!!
I feel so humbled today. We reached 1k and more. It's scary and also rewarding to see so much people following those day to day gamedev jokes.
I hope I will make you laugh for a long time.
I LOVE YOU ALL

Just watched Palm Springs, it was quite enjoyable. All these time loop movies always loop after a day, though... No one talks about the poor folks stuck in a 12 seconds time loop.
I was talking with @RiotSocrates about Fall Guys, and he said "this is nothing new, @Transformice did it years ago"... Such a small world, @Melibellule :)
This is a great team, and you should apply.
my R&D team at riot is hiring! there are a couple different kinds of areas we're open to expertise in and we're open to varying levels of seniority in the mid/senior range, so don't take the job title at face value-- check the job desc! riotgames.com/en/work-with-u…
I keep being impressed by the level design in @SatisfactoryAF. So many great setups, interesting movement micro-decisions, environmental call-to-actions, ... This hand-crafted map is a piece of art.
This is just one of the many gems I've found while exploring. I came to @SatisfactoryAF to build giant factories, and yet I end up meandering this map for hours on end just to see what's past that corner, beyond that hill, on the other side, ... I'm thoroughly impressed.
