I'm very proud and grateful to announce I've somehow hit 5,000 subscribers. That's just an unreal amount of people. Thank you. youtube.com/post/Ugkxu8P...

white text on black background with pink iam8bit logo at the bottom of the image

text reads: 

We’re On Strike!

In solidarity with our community, the people of Minneapolis and Los Angeles, and everyone across the US being victimized by the brutality and fearmongering of ICE, iam8bit will be closed January 30th as part of a nationwide general strike.

Together we’re stronger. Abolish ICE.

Alex Pretti from his early days working at the VA

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

Genuinely can't believe it. Started this year with just over 500, and now we're already here. If you've subscribed or watched, thanks so much!

A YouTube comment saying β€œI’m a solo indie dev struggling with burnout and this video brought me to tears.”

Not going to make a habit of sharing nice comments but this is my first time hearing this. I’m always grateful when a video of mine has some sort of impact and I’m glad they felt like they could share

I cannot recommend Pizza Bandit. It's a poorly made game, and the presence of what I believe to be AI-generated assets signals a general lack of care or attention to detail. My full breakdown youtu.be/qCTZ7K44aTA?...

Wouldn't have minded if it was just claiming any revenue, but it's actually attempting to block the video from going live, and WB has thirty days to contest, so I'm in a bit of a digital limbo here.

Had intended to upload a video on Weapons tonight, but it has unfortunately been hit by three separate copyright claims from WB. Shame as it's a bit timely, but I don't know when I can expect it to go up now. Have contested the claims, of course.

The entire Al Jazeera crew for Gaza City was assassinated last night.

Mohammed Al-Khalidi
Mohammed Noufal
Ibrahim Zaher
Musab Al-Sharif
Moamen Aliwa
Mohammed Qreiqeh

Israel did this to minimize reporting of their planned, criminal occupation. International intervention is now the minimum position.

Hi there. I’m looking to speak to creatives/artists/art enjoyers who would categorize them self as anti generative AI. If you have time for a conversation, it would help me greatly.

Thank you

Putting Off Mother 3
YouTube video by fias_house Putting Off Mother 3

new video!! I played mother 3 for the first time recently after putting it off for a decade, so here's a short rumination on expectations and just doing the thing

In just six days, my Peak video has managed to hit 41,000 views. Genuinely delighted that so many people have taken the time to watch.

jason schreier is getting these updates almost faster than i, an impacted employee at zenimax online studios, am. which is creating a borderline slapstick layer to this experience

One mistake people make with these letters is assume they're written for humans, but they're not. There's no contrast.

They're written for shareholders, & for them, this text is just a non-stop parade of good news. Record numbers? All verticals up? Layoffs?! What a feast, for them, what a feast.

As one illustration of just how sloppy and chaotic today's mass Xbox layoff has been, some employees at Zenimax Online Studios are now watching their Slack accounts abruptly get locked out. No message from HR, no word on whether they still have a job, just an ominous Slack deactivation

Snap!

I’m incredibly grateful to say we hit 2000 subscribers over night. Truly an astonishing figure and double the (pretty lofty) goal I set myself at the start of the year

Hello! A request of the internet, if any game developers see this (bonus points if you work in digital art or use Unreal Engine 5) would you be open to chat to me about an upcoming project?
