@eigenbom Game design tips: * Don't rush the design * Start smaller. * No really, *smaller.*

gamedev tip: don't

@maxnichols @osamadorias Thinking about it, there's a difference only if the sunset is different from the term-length,which probably isn't a good idea. But, since SC has no term length or sunset, maybe allowing for both makes more sense? Not sure, and too sick to think about it carefully. :-/

Maybe the US Supreme Court appointments shouldn't be for life...

@Ninfa_dp Maybe just a little more time? I think it's good for the soul (especially when I wake up and realize I haven't been doing it well. Again.)

I’m going to stop having time for people who don’t have time for me.

@Ninfa_dp @AMazeFest I so wish I could be there! Siiiigh.

Friends! 💛 I will be leading a workshop on emotional game design: creative process and prototyping for @AMazeFest in Berlin on the 17th May! Spots are limited! 🔥 sched.co/11j90 #AMaze2022

Maersk is unparalleled in its global reach. For the company to say "but we're not shipping to/from Russia" is mind-boggling. Russia is left with second-tier shipping options or difficult, long, costly overland routes. Let's watch and see how this plays out.

@TylerGlaiel Also: Studio where I would willingly work again.

@TylerGlaiel Studio that treats its people the best and/or has the best snacks.

yo imagine if game awards actually had categories for things relevant to games like "best combat", "best puzzles", "best gamefeel" and stuff

@CarlsContent Possibly the next one I start, if I do it again. ;-)

Tell me the name of your favourite games studio in the industry 👇

@eplerjc Aspiration mixed with quasi-hero-worship?

@Scherlis @MarkHertling @TrentTelenko Painting scary pictures can be very profitable. Given the number of vehicles that were strangely out of service every time the Soviets held war games, this was something of an open secret I think. At least that's my recollection from some of the mil-focused magazines in the ~80s.

@onlinealchemist @MarkHertling @TrentTelenko I suggest it was "open secret", Mike, only among a pragmatically- and systemically- focused few. (Your kind of people, yes! But sadly enough, that's a minority.) And that's before we consider the mil-industrial incentives & pressures to paint a scary picture.

Why Russia can't war: * Where's their massive airforce? * Why all the abandoned vehicles? * Why can't they refuel, rearm, and feed their forces? * Why the patterns of command failures? COLLECTED HERE: explanations from the best experts. twitter.com/Scherlis/statu…

@tha_rami So you don't like our current Gilded Age? ;-)
