My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

This is like the time someone sent us a dialogue tool that apologised for "not being without sin" and said if you want that, use Yarn Spinner.

Attention Scottish voice actors! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🎤 We’re gearing up to cast an upcoming project, which will require an (almost) all Scottish cast! So watch this space, if it’s nae bother.

Already identified like 40 YS titles in the current Next Fest before even looking too hard. And of all of those games, only two have AI disclosures. Way to stand against the recent SlopFest phenomenon, devs. Proud of you 💚

Already shaping up to be a sick next fest. What a treat.

In about ~17 hours at @roguelike.club, I’ll be talking about Hint Line ‘93! I’ll also share my tiny little @yarnspinner.dev based #roguelike, which you can see here: try.yarnspinner.dev/sample/rogue... It’s designed for you to see how Yarn Spinner works, so you can build your own silly things.

Ring Ring! Hint please? @hey.paris will talk us through the process of building Hint Line '93 in "Please Hold: Building a Playable Museum Exhibit About 1993 Game Support". This talk is going to make me want to visit Melbourne just for this museum exhibit, I can tell.

Saw someone sharing their A-ha Take On Me style shader, and as it's something I've been working on for ages (making things look like paper for our game, Leonardo's Moon Ship), here's a WIP of mine. #godotengine #godot #gamedev #indiedev

Roguelike Celebration is pay-what-you-can this year. It's my favorite games conference and each year is a great time! Give them some money so they (unlike some multinational corporations I can think of) can continue paying speakers.

Roguelike Celebration@roguelike.club

We can't wait for all the wonderful talks this weekend at Roguelike Celebration 2026! Each day this week leading up to the event we're going to highlight our speakers. Grab a ticket to see the talks live: ti.to/roguelike-ce...

Last week, I received one of the most prestigious awards in my field. There were about a million people I wanted to thank, and I would have loved to tell you all about the Tassie game dev scene that I've seen grow over the last 20 years. But my mind was elsewhere 💔 yarnspinner.dev/blog/adam-la...
