Im humbled to have been trusted with this. Help your neighbors friends those in need are all around you.

Calling all South Asian gamedevs! I'm hosting another South Asian Gamedev Meetup at #GDC26 with @ekanaut.bsky.social. Wednesday, 1 PM at the Waterfall. Come through, meet fellow devs, make lifelong friends, what have you. Turns out there are DOZENS of us.

See you soon!

Ooo you definitely should 👀!!

This is what the dialogue tool looks like in our Mermaid Mask Unity project. I write the script directly into these boxes, select facial expressions if it's for an examine box, as these are, and I include voice directions, since it later gets exported as a script for the voice actors

Don't let imposter syndrome stop you!! We want to hear what y'all got to share! 🎮✨🗣️

I DID THE SFX FOR THE TRAILER OF SLAY THE SPIRE 2!

Those who know me know that I am OBSESSED with Slay the Spire and I cant put into words how much this means.

I still do Daily Challenges and it`s helped me through some pretty tough life times. What a full circle🥹

I printed it and stuck self-adhesive copper tape to it. There's copper tape with conductive adhesive so you can add multiple overlapping pieces and it counts as one conductive surface. Then I used the second part of the mold to shape the copper, so that it sticks inside the recessed traces. Then I used sandpaper to file away at the raised ridges. The copper traces are now electrically independent of each other. Done! But if I want, I can remove the extra copper tape.

The companion mold at the bottom. This second 3D-printed part pushes the copper tape down into the recessed trace channels so it conforms to the shape. The two parts sandwich together with alignment spikes to keep everything registered.

Adobe Illustrator on top (you can use any free tool that makes SVG vector files. I just own an old illustrator version. Bottom: the PCB Forge tool I made

I made a tool that turns PCB designs into 3D-printable molds. you sandwich copper tape between the parts, sand the ridges, and you have a real working PCB. no etching, no chemicals. I am losing my mind

After 9+ years at ustwo games I have unfortunately been made redundant.

If you are looking for a stylised 3D generalist with 10+ years experience to have on your team please give me a shout or let others know that I am available for work! I'd love to chat ✨

Omg I'm so sorry, I hope you get actually competent help soon and have a smooth recovery.

If anyone else wants an Adobe Animate alternative, I can’t recommend Moho enough. It’s affordable, it’s efficient, it’s been used in feature films from Cartoon Saloon like Wolfwalkers, and the best part…NO Ai whatsoever.

Thinky Direct 2026 - Open Submissions Last year at Thinky Games, we ran our very first Thinky Direct, sharing some amazing new trailers, reveals, and announcements with puzzle fans around the world. It was such a joy to organise that we're bringing it back for 2026! The Thinky Direct is a 30-60 minute digital livestream event, all about showcasing amazing upcoming thinky games - games that are generally about solving puzzles and careful reasoning, rather than fast reflexes or dexterity. We loves games that make you scratch your head, ponder interesting problems, and declare "aha!" when you discover the answer. We expect Thinky Direct 2026 to happen towards the end of May. This year, we're opening up submissions publicly so that we don't miss any great upcoming games. In particular, we're looking to feature exclusive trailers, content updates, big reveals, and exciting announcements! Please note that all content must be exclusive to this event. Previously released trailers or videos will not be accepted for inclusion in the showcase. We partner up with the Cerebral Puzzle Showcase, a Steam sale organized by Draknek & Friends, to reach gamers on the Steam platform. If your game is accepted to the Thinky Direct and is eligible for the Cerebral Puzzle Showcase, it will be included in both. If you think your game would be perfect for showcasing in Thinky Direct 2026, please let us know about it! Of course, to keep the event focused, spaces are extremely limited, so we're unfortunately not able to accept every game that is submitted to us. We are nonetheless incredibly grateful for any submissions we do receive, so thank you for taking the time, and I hope we can support your game in other ways if not through the Thinky Direct. The deadline for submissions is 23:59 UTC on February 28, 2026. We will respond by March 14, 2026. The event will happen around the end of May, 2026 - specific date TBD.

Dear all thinky game devs: we're running another Thinky Direct this year, and this time with open submissions!

Thinky Direct showcases exclusive trailers, announcements, and reveals for upcoming thinky games!

➡️ Submit your game by Feb 28:
