I pulled the plug on Adobe in March and have been using it since. Been able to do most things except import old InDesign files. Also much easier to just not install the AI module than in Adobe.

Is โ€œwreckedโ€ just a thing the kids say now?

So, I need a job. Iโ€™ve done a lot of work in my 40 years. Iโ€™ve operated, Iโ€™ve managed, Iโ€™ve client supported. Iโ€™ve prototyped, playtested, and photographed. Iโ€™ve drummed and even made a couple of kids. Kept them alive.

And when he fired up his game about his hopes and dreams, he saw that it was about him telling a chatbot to make a game about his life. Thatโ€™s when Nikita realized heโ€™d made his request inโ€ฆ The Twilight Zone

X post reads: Hello computer.
Decompile and distill Grand Theft Auto.
Make the game set in my hometown -- use Google Earth to reconstruct it in pixel-perfect detail.
Make the character me and have my spawn point be in the mansion I always look at on Zillow.
Review my chat memory and make every mission about my hopes and dreams.
Make it playable online so my friends can join.
When you're done, sell all my video games on Ebay and use that money to fund tokens for my next game.

Yeah, investigate the source material!

Watch yourselves Jude Law, Steven Spielberg, and HJ Osment!

"Surely this simple game does not need reviewing" right before one of the 6 game rules is printed wrong

@davethegame.bsky.socialOct 8, 2026, 7:05 PM

This was for Get Bit, which would go on to get picked by multiple other publishers, none of whom would let me review the rulebook (or box) for errors before they went to print. Even despite the history.

@davethegame.bsky.socialOct 8, 2026, 6:59 PM

Yeah, I think so. I think TC had a better result than I did though.

@davethegame.bsky.socialOct 8, 2026, 6:17 PM

I know this is a "shitting post" but I legit had a publisher print 2-6 players on my game for 4-6 players. I had to scramble to come up with 2 and 3 player rules that ended up being not very good. I would later revisit and revise those rules and upgrade them to "OK"

It was after that where I heard this joke: "How do you make a small fortune running a game store?" "Start with a large fortune"

@davethegame.bsky.socialOct 8, 2026, 2:39 PM

In the early 2000s I went to a game store in Ohio that had movie props in cases and the Lord of the Rings playing on iMacs on a loop, and it turns out the owner was a movie producer and just wanted to have a cool game store, and I still admire that a lot.

Finally, a comic book line that has the meats.

Very nauty. Tut tut.

hey all, just a heads up to my artist peers- this is all AI slop, I would avoid this. It isn't adobe code, it's just vibecoded to emulate their features.

@davethegame.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 5:14 PM

HELL YES UNION NOW

@davethegame.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 12:29 AM

Donโ€™t ruin the upcoming theme week, โ€œBlast Weekโ€

@davethegame.bsky.socialOct 5, 2026, 2:30 PM

Not even.
