I honestly appreciate how receptive Bluesky is about these sorts of questions. One of the things I've studied as part of my CS degree is designing accessible computer software.

I've been trying to see how it can apply to games, and honestly it's been interesting researching this topic further.

usually I think good art direction can significantly help with accessibility anyhow, but I think adding a simple outline and having that become far more accessible automatically means a lot to some people I figure

So by color would an outline suffice or a full on overlay for that designated color?

Do they still help at all? Like in combination with an outline shader of some sort, would you find yourself having a better/worse experience with screen shaders enabled?

(Also if anybody has general accessibility guidelines for games, I'd love to see! It's something ive been interested in.)

Curious. I want to hear from some folks with colorblindness.

I'm working on multiple game dev projects and I want to know, what exactly do colorblind shaders do to assist you in video games? What do you look for, whats a good/bad implementation of it?

I'd love to hear some opinions on this

I remember vividly getting mine in dec of 2017 and it being the most powerful thing I owned

I still have it by my desk because I'll be damned if I ever get rid of it

what the fuck do you MEAN the Nintendo switch is 9 years old

(Also I would like to announce that native Linux and macOS ports are on the way. I'm handling those!!)

You should be able to run this fine under Linux with proton, but as a Linux user I want to make a port available as soon as possible.

Please go check this out!! I assisted the DREAMTONE team with the final stretch of development with gameplay/systems programming. They're a talented bunch and it shows in the demo.

"PROMPT AND PLAY?" HOW ABOUT PROMPT ME TO PLAY A DIFFERENT FUCKING GAME! WHAT A SHITLOAD OF FUCK!!!

I think this was a temp banner I had on twitter forever ago, but just kind of rolled with the text because it was funny enough

fun fact : this is where my banner text comes from

I don't really complain bc I can just convert it on a case by case basis. but the tools I had to use every day for smash remix almost never supported webp (CSP, Maya, GoldenEye Editor)

not every software in someone's preferred tools will support webp and that can get frustrating

I mean if you work with legacy software heavily, pirated or not webp gets annoying

Jobs — SUMMITSPHERE Developers behind ANTONBLAST.

We are looking for people with a good, collaborative spirit, the burning desire to make games that don't fit the industry standard mold, and the skills to back that up.

If that sounds like you, you can check out the job description and apply on our site: summitsphere.com/jobs

SUMMITSPHERE is developing a brand-new Unreal title in partnership with a major industry player. We’re assembling a small, elite team to build something tight, ambitious, and punk.

Today we're opening our first position for an Unreal Engineer to lead programming on this project.

seeing this game on sale rn is it worth it

can you include gnc names with multiple ways to spell it based on gender...

switching to linux is actually a lot easier than you think*

*assuming you don't rely on any weird hardware, don't play any recent multiplayer focused games, and use programs with heavy handed drm

I'm still holding my head up for some opportunities but it's been hard. especially since I have moved to an area with very little career opportunities to pursue

to kind of add on : my job search has gone abysmally, and I've been trying to find ways to sustain myself and make my life easier in the meantime.

I'm more than qualified as a programmer but about 100+ job applications later I've only had about 3
interviews (including 1 with an AI chatbot)

id say at least keep the partition (or partitions) around for the sake of messing around with Linux if you're still even a bit interested

only benefit though is you'd be getting a nicer boot manager with grub instead of using whatever WinRE's manager is

TOO MANY EXCESS VACATION DAYS? TAKE A GODDAMN VACATION STRAIGHT TO HELL!!

don't really want to publicly vent but I know I've been quiet lately. It's been pretty tough for me, especially emotionally. Try to take care of yourselves, and I will try too.

you using wine or proton?
