The future is super bright for game design as a profession. Evidence based practice is another tool to empower designers. Use it.

Anybody else wonder what music your favorite culture was designed to? New Order is responsible for like half of my game pitches.

Great conference today. Super inspiring to see all of the cool work going on in #XRHigherEd. It feels like we're approaching a moment where XR integration in the classroom (digital or otherwise) is going to become fairly common.

Follow-up bonus round question, are you primarily using 3D video or game engine rendered VR? Advantages and disadvantages to either approach for you? #XRHigherEd

Mr. @RDansky, a pressing matter has come to my attention. We must plumb the depths of this mystery by launching an expedition into the wilds of Raleigh:

Spent my morning trying to unstick drivers from snow banks in my neighborhood. Seriously, don’t drive in the Triangle today unless you have to. You’ll just end up blocking emergency crews and plows

Yo @TubaticPrime, I played Summon. Thought it was enigmatic and intriguing. Can we expect more interactive narratives from you?

No other game this year managed to deliver such a constant sense of discovery and to feel so enigmatic.

"Universal Paperclips" is one of the cleverest games to cross my path in a while, and is in the running for my game of the year. It manages to tie narrative, world building, dramatic scale changes, and mechanical experimentation into an idle game.

Prediction: The next wave will be gated social networks with specific demographics. Already here in a quiet way with things like Nextdoor.

The new character limit is the latest sign that this platform is not only dying, but has no understanding of its strengths.

The Netflix Castlevania series is super rad, and easily the best non-interactive adaptation of a video game.
