Saw some sad bangers at the O2 and my ears are ringing and my heart is full
The many replays of that goal at half time are very "You can actually pinpoint the second when his heart rips in half"
5 days since OR released the video for stupid song (www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rt9t...) and still no "stupid song (cat video)". Not sure what she's playing at tbh
IDK, if you're a keynote speaker who is struggling to create content that "sounds like you" then maybe you should not be a keynote speaker!
@lukeplunkett.com A little bit of personal news 🥰
I made a game and now the game is... a nail??? (FYI you can get Mindset GO! for iOS / Android here mindset.game/app, in print in The Observer every Sunday and also apparently at your local nail salon)
Transferring projects to a new Mac and took the opportunity to fix bugs + clean up Chuckie Egg: One Life Left, my very unofficial Chuckie Egg daily run remix. Has (some) mobile support now and better global leaderboards. Also you will not beat my score today. stecurran.com/chuckie
Friends: it's Maraoke in London this Friday @loading.bar. Maraoke is a night of amazing songs that you already know, rewritten about games. It's 50% comedy show, 50% collective euphoria. You do not have to sing. There will be no forced fun. IT IS GREAT. And it is FREE. Do it: maraoke.com/booknow
Excellent work @riversidefm.bsky.social. First image when I use Firefox (because I'm trying to move on from Chrome). Cool, I'll try go for Safari, then. Oh.
It's lunchtime so why not play a version of Chuckie Egg that critics are called "hacked together" and "why did you do this": Daily randomly-generated levels! Scoreboard competition! One life only! Chuckie Egg! stecurran.com/chuckie/
Hello BBC Political Editor Chris Mason, the dogwhistle of family voting will only become "part of the conversation" if the media make it "part of the conversation", which you are doing, so maybe back off the passive voice and own it?
OK, this is nearly done now: stecurran.com/LUGE2026/ reddit.com/r/LUGE20XX/ Also the instructions pop up is the best thing I have ever written.
It was a different, and in many ways better, time
I'll go on about this a bit tomorrow but I've just put up a new version of LUGE 2026 for testing. * Race up to N rival ghosts, where N is however many players have submitted times or depends on your device * Do the same with your own local ghosts stecurran.com/LUGE2026 New track in 30 mins.
It's my birthday, or was until 20 minutes ago, so there's a new version of LUGE 2026 up: * Quick restart once you're done with the Daily (cc: @dreofthedead.bsky.social) * New "ALL MY GHOSTS" feature (in settings) which is cool stecurran.com/LUGE2026/
Hello, here is some free advice for those of you starting to think about VALENTINES WEEKEND: maraoke.com/booknow
Here is a small reminder that I 'released' a new puzzle game on Reddit at the start of this year. It's called Stackword and you build towers of words by removing, adding or changing letters each time. It's tactile and good and now works on iOS and Android too! Try it here: reddit.com/r/stackword
A reminder to all that I shipped a word game, Stackword, at the start of this year - on Reddit of all places. It now has 17 players! Some of them are better than me! Maybe you will be better than me as well. Give it a go? www.reddit.com/r/stackword/
Please LOCATE and ADMIRE my Mindset Christmas Cookie
If I were lumines I would not have a title that looks like it says arse, on a logo that looks like an arse, positioned over an arse
Mindset, a puzzle so pure it would work in a newspaper, is now in a newspaper. The Observer started running it today. Cat for scale. (You can play the digital version in browser at mindset.game, or grab the app at mindset.game/app)
In 12 or so hours I will post about something I've been working on for... maybe 18 months...? that is a very big deal to me. Also today one of my cats wore a tiara. You can like this post and I won't know which thing you're into but that's OK because they're both good.
