People occasionally ask why we have a poetry channel in the official SpyParty discord, and from now on when they ask I will just point them to this.

Every panicked run-up to PAX I get out the ancient android phones we use for game sales on the show floor, and I hesitantly update the Square app, and it has worked flawlessly every time. Good on them for keeping it running on so many devices!

I just teased this image in the discord of the new venue that we'll be playtesting at PAX! It's the 3rd venue focusing on occlusion, but I don't see any occlusion here, just a really comfy chair!

I was doing some house cleaning, and found this, and since it's #IGF season it seemed timely. RIP Seamus.

Uploaded images for the upcoming Steam library update...I picked Ms. J as our capsule image, she nestles right in there... Which reminds me of this #fakenews article "Ubisoft: 'Nobody has dared do anything with a granny before'" (gamesindustry.biz/articles/2019-…) Clint Hocking pshaw

The new Redwoods venue is out! It's the third in a series of venues exploring different kinds of occlusion. Come yell at some trees to get out of your way.

Best bug in a while: on discord a player reported issues with no textures loading and model level of detail being stuck at lowest...turns out they were playing some replay sets that used old art venues and characters.

Like most indies I know, I gather analytics and then never look at them. I played around a bit today while avoiding real work, and it got me curious, is it possible there is valuable stuff hidden in here that would help make SpyParty better, or nah? x.com/SpyParty/statu…

Does anybody who reads this stream on youtube? I'm thinking about extending the SpyParty Streams notifier to include youtube streams, but people don't seem to set the Game very often? If you stream on youtube, do you set the game? If not, why not?

Does anybody who follows me work at Google or YouTube and care about games or know somebody who does? There is no way to set the game with the YouTube Data API, and their algorithmic game detection is incredibly broken. Help?

I don't know how many developers who run a discord follow me, but we got bitten by and found out about this insane private channel security hole today, so hopefully this will help you avoid this...

No idea if anybody from twitch will see this, but exports to youtube are failing a lot recently and you guys are going to delete old vods in two weeks. Kinda need export to work to save years of the SpyParty community's work on your platform. I wish bugs were easier to report.

I don't usually push the ubiquitous and annoying AI buttons on all software these days, but after my first tweet in 2 years, it asked if I wanted grok to summarize it, and I must say it did a good job.
