Horror fans! There's a game called Without a Dawn, which I released last May, that I 100% believe deserves more attention. It's a small, unique, thought-provoking experience made with love and hard work: store.steampowered.com/app/3145620/... Thanks for checking it out! 💚

Cybertruck Owners Only Joe Sawyer • 19h • O ... X Had an issue stopping my Cybertruck from a low speed the other day and had to make a choice to crash it or risk going tumbling down a mountain to probable death. Sucks to see, but it held up well and only a few minor scrapes and bruises. Still going over every choice made and trying to understand why it would not stop and was gaining speed from 5 mph to 12+ while on the brakes. ABS was probably hurting more than helping on this 26° downhill angle. Hoping to be able to talk to someone at Tesla as I have the crash recorder data already. [cybertruck upside down like the shitty little brick it is

joining the "cybertruck owners only" group on fb is one of the best decisions i've ever made. every so often when i'm scrolling through fb getting pissed off, i get to see a little treat like this

Please buy this game, support a good game studio, and show those moralist platforms that what games can do goes beyond their dulled understanding.

A scene from The Sims video game showing a public protest gathering outside a stone building. In the foreground, two Sims are having a conversation - one wearing a blue hoodie and jeans, the other in a purple dress with braided hair. In the background, several Sims hold protest signs with prohibition symbols, while others stand near a podium and colorful hand-painted signs. Trees frame the scene and military jets fly overhead in the blue sky.

Walkthrough of the DIGAREC In-Game Photo Gallery This video shows a walkthrough of the DIGAREC In-Game Photo Gallery. The gallery showcases in-game photography works by students from the European Media Studies* program produced between 2016 and 2020. The gallery was created in the social VR tool Mozilla Hubs by the Mozilla Foundation. It opened in 2020 and was accessible from any browser. One could also use VR-goggles.

A Walkthrough of the DIGAREC In-Game Photo Gallery. The gallery showcases works by students from 2016 to 2020. During Covid lockdowns, the gallery served as a meeting place for some of our students. Mozilla Hubs was discontinued in 2024, taking the gallery with it. This video preserves its memory.
