Idle Animations: Playing and Not Playing in Cibele [GIFs]
Idle Animations is a recurring series in which I play games without playing them, exploring quiet, still moments, how games fill space and time, and what happens when you let a game play itself.
Game Enjambment: [i’ve been thinking about DETERMINATION] (Undertale)
Game Enjambment is a reoccurring poetry series on games and gaming. This poem is an exploration into the themes of Undertale. What makes us human? What does it mean to be a “human?” Am I human? Are you?

It’s Wednesday, once again, and I’ve got the gaming news you crave. From ongoing conversations about difficulty to the morality of loot boxes, this has been a wild couple of weeks in the gaming community.

Get Your Game On: A Gay Girls’ Baseball Team and YouTube Woes
Happy October! What games are you playing lately? I played a bit of Hitman: Sniper, an Android and iOS game where you play as a sniper tasked with increasingly difficult challenges (e.g., kill a guard by making another guard fall onto them). It only has two maps, but for one dollar, it’s a good time…
Pick a Card: How Tarot Finds New Life in Inspired Games
This tarot-into-digital media topic will sound like a bit of a stretch. I’ll tell you right now, the art of tarot itself is a stretch—it’s an odd intersection of personal relatability and interpretation of cultural and situational symbols, either ending with you having a huge card collection or an uncanny ability to relate anything to…
