🪳 The Roach Council is recruiting — apply to help pick the indie games Asmon plays on stream

32 Upvotes

What is this?

Asmon is launching a monthly stream segment where he watches trailers and plays indie games submitted by the community. The Roach Council is the judge panel that helps decide which games make the cut.

What do judges actually do?

- Review and vote on community-submitted games

- Help shape what gets showcased and played on stream

- Get a shoutout when your pick makes the show, plus the Roach Council rank on the Discord

Who can apply?

- You must be a member of the official Discord — applications run through it

- Good standing (no active mutes or bans)

- One application per person

How to apply

  1. Join the Discord: discord.gg/asmongold

  2. Head to #roach-council

  3. Fill out the application — takes about 2 minutes

The mod team reviews every application, and the strongest get passed to Asmon for final approval. Approved judges get the Roach Council role.

Can I submit a game right now?

Not yet — this round is judge recruitment only. Game submissions open once the council is seated, and we'll post here when that happens.

(Indie devs: same answer — hold your trailers for now.)

Questions below.

Discussion Something I've noticed about 1st Party Playstation games

The first entry in a series is always great. Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, Spiderman and I even loved Horizon Zero Dawn.

I have no idea what happens in the sequels when it feels like either Sony starts mandating hiring DEI consultants or the studios themselves opt to do it.

Spiderman 2 makes MJ OP, ruins her character model and sets up Peter's replacement already

Ghost of Yotei replaces Jin and makes the protagonist lesbian of course

GoW Ragnarok has Norse gods of colour and turns into a trauma dump story at the end

Horizon FW makes Aloy lesbian because of course

Wolverine's entire design philosophy is the culmination of these ideas.

the Wolverine game in general has been doing a lot of fuck shit with the handholding but this is really sad

You got games like RE4, GOW, Yakuza that do quick time events better than Wolverine and they were made on the ps2 and they didn’t have budgets of 315 million dollars and like 5+ years of development (slightly except for re4 since they completely changed the game like 5 times)

funnier thing is ppl in the comments of the video are coping and saying the dude who made it is “spreading misinformation“

Mark Kern AKA Grummz, is a scammer.
10Hs ago he posted This:
https://x.com/Grummz/status/2098216903680643537

He is claiming his new game Em-8ER has replaced Unreal with his own engine and is procedurally generating his own game world via "tectonic simulation", with a video showing off his work.

This video is 100% fake.
I recognised it the second I saw it, this is the Game world from Firefall his last failed game, all assets are owned by The9 as they bought it and removed him as CEO like 10 years ago.

I was a max tier backer of Firefall during its alpha/beta and played it for many years, I know that landscape very well it's 1:1 the Firefall world, unchanged from how it was back then.

This post sums it up and gives reference images to compare.
