The propensity for adults to look at a franchise specifically made for kids and claim ownership of it, then be upset when their fandom isn't steering the ship is mind-numbing, made worse only by how common and consistent it is.

Pretty sure young, target market #Bluey fans are very happy with more Bluey.

Not sure how this is a hard concept for some folks.

Good morning folks

WAIT YOU FUCKING WHAT?

Oh. Good. moving cloud shadows over the game.

That's... not good for motion sickness.

It's 2026, I'm begging #gamedev folks to please realise that motion sickness is a thing you can acquire as you get old, and screen shake, moving backgrounds, etc are going to make you unable to play your own games. Give us options to turn them off.

Trying a new game (#NovaLands), and it blasted sound on startup, then seems to have ignored the volume settings I set.

We're off to a good start.

Good morning folks

Gee, I wonder what motivated this?

Waiting for the revelation to dawn on them that selling an item acquired for $450 to a customer at $350 might be a really bad call.
