acrylic painting by Zoรซ Treez - 2025 

painted in only reds, purples and black- a vampiric/gothic outdoor setting is depicted on a stretched canvas (gently sitting on a shrub for display). the composition contains a large, pointed castle, positioned slightly to the right of a large glowing full moon. in the foreground, to the left of the canvas, is a twisting dead tree. From the castle to the viewers perspective, there is a grassy path leading you to its ominous structures. surrounded by plants, foliage and trees of various textures. this is an original painting, all done by hand with zero sketch. this painting took a total of about 9 hours. thank you for viewing

Yeap. Got sent to a psych ward last time I burned out and that exact thing came out of my mouth as a problem (along with the stress of working full time, struggling with bills and inflation causing my wage to lower to being effectively the same as when i was a noob 5 years before)

Totally understand what your saying. I'm extremely privileged to have a home , but it's also a shackle where I must keep an income to keep the home, or all the previous work to get it is lost, both mine and my parents

Something tells me, if that's accurate, that avrage and median are far apart, and also "games industry" includes suits and marketing

I love games, you know what?

I love indies of so many different shapes and forms, I love the big budget blockbuster ones sometimes, I love long ones, short ones, story driven or sims, puzzles and combat or none of the above, whether polished or janky I can always find the potential. I love games! ๐ŸŽฎ

Really enjoyed this one. Talking about loyalty to past self made me want to give you a hug i haven't wanted to give since watching some ol heartbreaking Abby thorn videos, parasocial shame be damned. Also 10/10 contained Gandalf the dog

Food is awesome, because it has a magical "authenticity" from lineage.
I'm making what I would consider "knockoff char siu" and it's kinda fascinating food can be "authentic", but since I don't think I've ever had "authentic" char siu I 100% certain can't make it authentic imo. Still smells amazing

Reading The legend of Kamui part 2. I read some of this in school when I was like... 8 or 9? It was a printing of the comic panels with like a translated to swedish book that you had to refer to panel by panel. Still cool, still sexist, still wierd as heck in an interesting way, would recommend.

Curious whom you feel has changed. Is it devs, stores, suits, the media landscape (both journalists if we still have those and influencers) or something else/ a combination. And when was it good in comparison?

The winner takes all-instant hit-meme-flywheel mentality that has completely overtaken the games industry and even #indiedev is poison.

It deteriorates the space for risk and sustainable growth, until all that's left is to to either make slot-machines or slop-machines.

I do kinda miss having a big dumb multiplayer shooter to fall back on, but playing straftat all summer really cemented that what I *actually* want is the version of that built around goofin' around with friends and not, like, turning hangtime into Esports

Bummer, but played the demo and was disappointed in the gameplay/level design so not a great loss imo. Also I, like a lot of people in the comments to that post, was almost certain it was made by trans gal living the cyberpunk trans-human dream, not an up their own ass dropkick. No great loss.

every single frame of animation, in-house developed sound effect, line of code, visual asset, chart, and line of dialogue was done by a human and done without using generative AI tools in the making of UNBEATABLE. relinquishing creative choices to tools makes your work empty, vapid, and meaningless
