The deep game design questions coming at me right now. "In video games, is it typical that you can use a resource and then when you go back to it will it be there again?"

We've tackled why different consoles have their own controllers, "you're supposed to use your thumbs the whole time?", what completionism is

I am getting a lot of why questions lmao 😩 doing my best here like "sometimes people enjoy playing in this kind of way..."

I made the mistake of telling her jumping is often a hard part for people "in video games" (every question is like "in video games are you supposed to...") and now she's like HERE'S A JUMP every time

Questioning my choice to make a highly exploratory artsy little game (Journey) my mom's first video game but I think it's right 🙈🙈

We've graduated from "where do I go" to "oh I'm going to follow these" 🥳🥳

The huge gasp and SHOOT coming out of this woman's mouth every time she tries to jump and turn at the same time are killing me 😂 same tho Mom

One interaction is now named "The O" for the button you need to press to invoke it. "Was I supposed to use The O??"

Omg she made a jump from a far platform that I did not think was the right one and it was the solution, the smugness in this house right now

She just asked me how much a PlayStation is 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 we're winning fam

"I'm riding it! I'm riding it! Woo! Aaaah sand!!" May the people who made this game enjoy perfect cups of coffee, cool pillows, and ideal weather for their preferences for the rest of their lives

So fun to listen to developing game literacy in real time. "Hm it's making sure I saw the light"
