- Reposted by Matt CicirielloMe, looking outside at the big snowstorm and thinking about all the sand and salt I'll have to put down after shoveling. Like, damn, even God feels the need to remind us that ICE sucks...
- It does a lot of good to see your passion project grow. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for the continuing support

- Reposted by Matt CicirielloIf as a developer/publisher you want to buy into AI gen for development, alright -- but if the result of using it is just your game feeling like you took a bunch of really shitty shortcuts, it can only hurt you and clearly isn't the future you think it is
- Thanks, YouTube. I’m trying
- Clear to say I enjoyed my first time playing Spyro
- Happy Hump Day! 🎉 Let's celebrate it with a Episode #14, where we talk about Arc Raiders and its AI problem, Spyro (and how it compares to Crash), and some of our unpopular gaming opinions! Sorry in advance to fans of *everything* Bethesda... 🎧 Listen Here 💬 Join our Discord!
- Reposted by Matt CicirielloAs many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed. The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.
- Reposted by Matt CicirielloIt’s almost Halloween, and we’re diving into the *truly* terrifying this week in Episode #12 - that’s right… Game Reviews! 😱🎃 🎧 Listen Here 💬 Join our Discord!
- It’s great doing @backlogbreakers.com, but I swear the second the recording starts I turn into this bumbling, rambling idiot. It’s like my brain does not compute how to talk coherently, in front of a microphone. Just talk like a normal person, dummy!
- It’s good to be back!
- We're back! Did you miss us? 👀 Episode #11 is here, and we’re diving into a packed lineup of new releases - from Dispatch and PowerWash Simulator 2, to Pokémon Legends: Z-A… and World of Warcraft? Yeah, something’s wrong there... 🎧 Listen Here 💬 Join our Discord!

- Among Us 3D is genuinely fun
- Reposted by Matt CicirielloWith game prices rising, creators can’t afford to chase every new release, hoping one finally pays off. Hone your strategy. Prioritize games that fit your content, engage your audience, and offer repeat value.
- Reposted by Matt CicirielloApology for the vent, but I hate that I just want to use social media to let people know about the cool stuff in my life and fun new projects I'm making with people I love, but it feels like a betrayal of the heinous shit that's really going on. I apologize in advance if I navigate that line poorly.
- Reposted by Matt CicirielloOne thing I dislike about gamer reactions nowadays is if a game isn't in a genre they like, they'll just trash it from top to bottom. I was hyped for The Duskbloods until I saw it was a MP only pseudo BR thing. Not for me but that doesn't mean it'll suck. Not every game has to be tailored to you.
- Reposted by Matt CicirielloBeen trying like crazy to hit 20k subs on Youtube. If you are bored and have nothing else to do right this second, and have not done so already, I'd love it if you would. It's free! I get it if you don't wanna, but if you do, it's here: www.youtube.com/scottjohnson
- Holy crap, Severance is my jam. Sad I waited so long to jump into it
- Reposted by Matt CicirielloI had to snip out my favourite moment from #TheGameAwards. @laratlarian.bsky.social's words echo the heart of every developer. The industry needs to listen. We just want to make cool stuff for people. #indiedev #gamedev
- It’s a play Marvel Rivals all day kind of Friday, right?
- If you’re ever interested in finding a dedicated streamer, who really puts their all into this, look no further. His community is welcoming and always excited to have new additions. This may be biased because he’s one of my best friends but that doesn’t make it any less true.
- And, while, I'm talking about the stream, I would love for everyone to come check it out! Whether you’re here to catch up, chill, or enjoy the games, I’d be so grateful to have you there 🎉 👾 Catch the stream: www.twitch.tv/noodlesource 📅 Stream Times: 8:30-11:30, Tuesdays and Sundays
