One complaint, though. The subtle (and automatic) cinematic parallax camera movement during the boss fight at the end is really really disorienting and gave me vertigo. It was so subtle that at first I wasn't convinced it was actually happening... hence the vertigo.

Shinobi demo is pretty fuckin' good. I don't think I expected it to be *that* much of a platformer (I've never played these) but was glad it was. The side rooms where it throws you headfirst into the deep end were great.

They know proc-gen is not the same. They know.

They know. They know "enemy AI" is not the same thing as LLMs or GenAI. They know. And they know most laymen don't. That's the trick.

The people who are saying things like "AI has been around since Pac-Man why is it a problem now" are not ignorant or uninformed, they are maliciously blurring the definitional lines between what old "AI" *was* and what modern "AI" *is* so that you have a harder time convincing folk the latter sucks.

🚨 HOWDY! 🚨 GREAT GOD GROVE is coming PHYSICALLY to Nintendo Switch from Super Rare Games!! It'll come with unique trading cards featuring NEW art and more 🤠

Let’s chat!

I feel it's important to design action games in a way where players still feel engaged if they only use the most basic moves to traverse a level, while still offering depth in movement as their skill improves.

I know people who never use the run button in 2D Mario games and still have a great time.

Why did thousands of adult titles just disappear from the biggest PC gaming marketplaces? Digital distribution platforms Steam and itch.io have tightened their rules about adult content – under pressure from payment processors. Why has this happened and where will it lead?

Steam and itch.io have removed thousands of video games in recent weeks deemed to be "adult content" in order to comply with strict rules from payment processors like Mastercard.

These policies censor artists engaged in lawful speech. Mastercard shouldn't be the gatekeepers of our digital freedom.

Friends and colleagues, we're looking to add a senior 3D Character Artist to our current project! If this is you, please read the details and apply through our LinkedIn page. We are specifically looking for candidates who are proficient with anime-stylized visuals. Thanks ❤️

As many of you know, Steam and Itch are being threatened by an anti-nsfw group in order to force them to remove any content they deem distasteful by petitioning Visa and MasterCard, who are threatening these gaming platforms to cut payment access if they do not remove the games.

Most experts acknowledge that a takeover by artificial intelligence is coming for the video game industry within the next five years, and executives have already started preparing to restructure their companies in anticipation. After all, it was one of the first sectors to deploy A.I. programming in the 1980s, with the four ghosts who chase Pac-Man each responding differently to the player's real-time movements.

This is an insane thing to write about game development. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/28/a...
