What amazes me in this scene is that if you listen to the first verse carefully, the Jans cannot keep pace (one of the Jans says the lyrics after others), but when the second verse ends (saying that they need to stay together), they can sing the new chorus perfectly✨

So… Can we say reactive turn-based rpg is a thing?

I still can’t get over how outdated Google Scholar feels. I mean, Google has the biggest database and some of the best AI out there, but we’re still stuck using this ancient version of Scholar. Seriously, come on...

This is the cover of a book that seems to focus on digital games, specifically their mechanics and gameplay. The title "Dijital Oyunlar Oynanış ve Mekanik" translates to "Digital Games Gameplay and Mechanics" from Turkish. The cover features a retro gaming aesthetic, with pixel art representations of iconic elements from the classic game Pac-Man, such as the titular character and a ghost enemy, along with the maze and dots that are a significant part of the game's mechanics. The large "3.0" on the cover might suggest that the book discusses the third generation of gaming or a new phase in digital game development. The editors of the book are listed as Dr. Ertuğrul Sünğü and Prof. Dr. Barbaros Bostan. At the bottom, the logo of "nobel" indicates the publishing house. The overall design of the cover, with its nod to classic video games, suggests that the book may explore the evolution of game design and the foundational elements that make digital games engaging.

Great to see the Turkish "Dijital Oyunlar" series continuing!

The 3rd entry in the lineup - "Gameplay and Mechanics" just released, and it looks awesome; focusing on games like #EldenRing #SilentHill #Warcraft #LifeIsStrange and #SuperMarioOdyssey!

Hello everyone!

"Digital Games 3.0: Gameplay and Mechanics" is now out🎉. I am delighted to be a part of this academic work, titled "Space as a Narrative Constructor in Digital Games: An Analysis of 'Stray' through Henry Jenkins' Spatial Storytelling."

The English book cover of "GAMEDEV: 10 Steps to Making Your First Game Successful"

Written by the developer of #DARQ, this book offers 10 Steps to Making Your First Game Successful!

My subjective opinion: This sucks.
