Every time I visit the US I’m appalled by how sweet desserts are. It’s like you take the necessary amount of sugar required for it to taste good and double it.

Today is the 1 year anniversary of the release of Atama! Thanks to everyone who has supported the game! In celebration we are reducing the base price to $9.99, and in addition the game will be discounted on the upcoming Halloween sale.

Splurging on international business class for the first time in my life. Skipping 30 min+ lines on checkin and security plus free coffee in a nearly empty lounge and it’s already so much less stressful. And I’m not even on the plane yet.

I woke up an hour later than I usually do and even though I got a bluesky invite while I was asleep they just blocked new registrations temporarily like 30 minutes before I saw it.

I guess I'm legally obligated to buy Kodaka games day 1, and 20 minutes in, Rain Code sure is as DR as it gets without being DR. The protagonist even sounds like Megumi Ogata (though it's not actually her).

FWIW:
1. This *is* translation. It's a pun and they found a pun that's surprisingly close in the target language. Literary translators have been doing that for centuries.
2. I'd argue interviews are one thing that should not be "localized", in the gaming-biz sense of the term.
I get teary eyes extremely easily with fiction. Embarrassingly so - even for the most sappy cliched material. But when there's very sad personal stuff going on in RL it's almost like it's physically impossible for me to cry. Is this weird?

Tokyo Indies really is a fantastic event - Alvin was very welcoming when I presented Atama there last year and every time I attend I meet new cool people. If you're at all adjacent to indie games and in Tokyo the third week of the month I highly recommend checking it out.
"The objective of Tokyo Indies is to have a safe space to be with other developers and get feedback before releasing your game to the public or showing it at a show"
