I'm looking for any games, mobile or even web dev work. I can code in multiple programming languages (C/Java/Python/Lua & more). I am familiar with Godot & Unreal I can do mobile & retro dev. Anything, contracting, freelance, if you know any leads or if anyone is looking to hire. Shares appreciated.

Hey folks, my husband possibly left or had his Steamdeck robbed on the L89 #Dublin Bus. The bus left Broombridge around 15.50 (the SD is at least password locked). If anyone knows anything let us know.

Ringing Dublin Bus in the morning on the chance someone handed it in instead of robbed it :/

This one's called "All Glory to Our Aquatic Comrades" and it's dedicated to those orcas who go around sinking big dirty boats and teaching their calves to do the same.

Having a lot of uncomfortable feelings about being in this position, but I made this after encouragement from friends and would really appreciate it if you could give it a look/share ❤️

Thanks to Marybeth’s patient questions, our conversation is concise, even punchy. Thank you, @historyworkshop.org.uk ! Very curious what colleagues from decolonization history will say.

I'd differentiate between writing lore (coming up with names, locations, facts etc.) and worldbuilding (making the fictional world seem alive and exist beyond the plot).

A lot of people see them as the same, but lore is just a small and probably least interesting part of worldbuilding.

Almost a year now since I received this absolutely classic burn from the Canadian government.

The article lays out the argument very clearly:
'presence of this stuff inside a game [...] sends a very clear message to your fans and customers that you do not give a shit.'

Why would I play a game from a company that doesn't give a shit about its quality?

I found that designing compact (think 1 page) ttRPGs is a great exercise in building narrative systems.

It doesn't carry over 1-1 to video games but there's enough overlap to be useful.

They're very handy! On vacation, I mostly bring a reader instead of books, especially because I prefer to travel light. And compared to reading on a phone/tablet, the e-ink display is much easier on the eyes, especially in the evening.

I don't enjoy programming. So when I have to do it, every time I solve a programming problem I wave my arms and proclaim:

I HAVE BENT THE MACHINE TO MY WILL

Great for morale, highly recommend.
