Or it could have just gone with a retelling treatment, like Battlestar Galactica, and skipped over the whole mess with *one person*.
Oh 💯. If it doesn't look obviously broken, there's a point where time runs out and decisions are made on "well, it's good enough to ship."
There's a reason why flat green or gray checkerboard were used for placeholder textures.
GWC is an entirely new game industry event, made by and for the workers who make this massively influential industry and artistic medium succeed.
All conferences sessions will be available online for free, with optional IRL watch parties. See you there, and solidarity forever ✊🏽🔥
"If I could start over", and then having the chance to do just that... Existential.
This thread is awesome. I love glitches
Boppy literally has "great for gaming" on their product page. 😆

Happy birthday!! 🎂🥳
I love seeing everyone's #WhatAGameDevLooksLike posts. 💗
As is tradition, I won't be sharing my own image this year. (Reasons, but mainly I'd rather stay anonymous on the internet)
But keep it up!!
The definition of "enshittification", applied to public space.
More sad seeing most can easily name more "Dave's at their current job" than women they've known over their entire career. 🫠
10/10 take. no notes
Uh oh, that didn't work. It appears that the safety protocols are also malfunctioning. 😬
I'm in the buckwheat pillow group for side sleeping.
Though if I'm sleeping on my back or stomach, I just bunch up a throw blanket under my neck/ears.
I'm waiting for the AI craze to crash. I'm hoping finances hold out until the industry starts hiring humans again, but there's just too many of us for there to not be a creative resurgence.
We're watching "For All Mankind" on Apple TV, and after the first season we've dubbed it "Sad in Space".
"You ready to watch some Sad in Space tonight?"
i made a very quick post about how YOU can get that project started. because i get that question fairly often and i have two (2) tips for you

I can tell I'm in Canada by the fact that the news is reporting on 19 shots.... and they're talking about hockey.
You get to choose one of two responses:
"I know everyone's *saying* he did all those awful things to women, but *I've* personally never seen him do those things around other men, so it must just be a misunderstanding."
Or
"YoU cAn'T eVeN tAlK tO a WoMaN aNyMoRe!"
Well, they removed that AI slop git chart.
And "good", considering what urban dictionary has for the definition of "morged". 🫣
Always gotta be suspicious why they're selling the goose if it lays golden eggs.
I looked up "morged". I do not think they want to be associated with the word "morged". 🫣
I've been out on errands all over town today, and for some reason, there's been at least one person on each leg of the trip walking or biking around with a sword hanging out of a backpack. 😳
Another weekday, another game studio studio closure. 😐
I realize I don't post much on here because all my thoughts grossly exceed the character limit. 🙃
And cutting labor means expecting exponentially more expertise and output per developer. It wasn't a mistake when that gaming CEO said they've built burnout into their staffing plan. (Burn out the experts, replace them with youth eager to please, regardless of the cost - rinse, repeat.)
Buy this book and support a bunch of rising stars in game narrative
That sounds amazing! 😋
And not a single reference to 99 Red Balloons?
When the money a video game made stopped going to the devs and instead started going to shareholders was the moment games stopped being about art/play and started being about making money.
The soulless nature is clear.
