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.

One of the most insightful comments about game development came from a former boss. He said “Making a game is like starting a band. You can’t throw money at a new studio with random AAA veterans and expect it to crank out a hit.” 🧵

Stardate 58779.4. The USS Nathan Hale, prototype for the Inquiry Class "Beta" variant, performs her first Planetary Take-Off and Landing (PTOL) test at Starfleet's testing facility in Nevada.

USS Intrepid is attacked in the Argelian Approaches, 24th June 2267. Klingon deep penetration vessels caused panic throughout the Four Day's War: many of these ships remained trapped in Federation space after the armistice, causing a press sensation and a severe headache for Starfleet.

i haven't drawn since art school and i wasn't really that good at it but i wanted to get back into it somewhat so i bought a drawing tablet. drew the iconic #StarTrek blue barrel today. i was going to draw it in a cartoony style like my buddy @irlbirdreal.bsky.social 's art but i accidentally didnt

Also here are some awesome character designs in a wonderful reference sheet format, created and illustrated by @irlbirdreal.bsky.social for my fanfiction series :)

although andoria is often depicted with barren, icy, surfaces, the moon is host to a variety of surface biomes. valley regions in the southwest quarter of the globe feature steep-faced walls of rock with paths leading to naturally occurring hot springs heated by hydrothermal shallow-water corals.

My favourite game-after STO, of course-is Drehmal: APOTHEΩSIS - an open world exploratdon game built in Minecraft that has storytelling+worldbuilding unimaginably rich. I'm so happy and proud that my friend and coworker @scorpiondesign.bsky.social joined their dev team! Their art below is amazing!

The second playable teaser for 2.3, Archived Memory 2: To Feel The Stars, is now available! If you missed Archived Memory 1, it's available in the same instance for you to try. Please enjoy! www.drehmal.net/am2

*exploration. oops. i wrote the above while setting up to play Archived Memory 2, which was fantastic, but best played after playing Drehmal, and Archived Memory 1.

While the Drehmal team is working on a major update, the 2.2 release is a fully fledged game that I cannot recommend enough if you are even remotely familiar with or enjoy Minecraft. It was a life changing experience for me, and Scorp, who I pestered to play it!
