a digital drawing of rogue from the X-Men over a white backdrop with a blue stripe. She's drawn as a black latina woman with some facial piercings. She's sitting down and leaning back, propped on her arms. She's not wearing her jacket, gloves and boots, and her hair is messy, like she just got back from a mission and is unwinding.

I have a friend who lives in Mexico and we talk about art supplies and games that are literally made there being priced for the US market

she had had a set of pencils that cost half as much as a month's rent...

I'd also like to add: when many forms of art as entertainment (books, games, etc.) are released internationally, they are frequently priced according to what's affordable in Japan or the US/EU/AU, which means they're relatively expensive in some markets even if they do get an official release there

There's still an big argument over this when it comes to Scanlations & manga. many translators saying scanlation isn't "necessary" anymore, forget how hostile og companies, refusing to licence stuff that is pirated while now trying to use AI to translate stuff. It's frustrating

I'm angry about this. Why?

Because kink is kink.
But, CSA is not kink. It's abuse.

They're trying to either minimalize extreme abuse allegations in the Epstein files by saying the Prince is "kinky," or else they're trying to kink-shame all kink.

I care about CSA, not kink.

I can't wait to see all of my mutuals that play Fortnite regularly to not touch the game for the entirety of the season in solidarity of all of their trans homies! It's so nice knowing so many people that aren't just allies when it's convenient for them! πŸ™‚πŸ’–

An illustration of three travellers seen from the back, below the gnarled trunks of an immense tree, all done in just a handful of colours: yellow for the grassy hill and sky, two shades of blue for the mountains in the background and the adventurers, and orangey brown for the tree.

From the Days of Mana specials in Nintendo Power: Katsuya Terada's visions of the world of The Secret of Mana, which, like their illustrations for Link's Awakening, lend the game a darker, more mature vibe akin to the artwork you might see in a Wizardry game.

Stop using AI for placeholder assets.
Use sketches. Use lorem ipsum. Use bright pink materials. Use programmer art for fucks sake, literally anything else.
If your studio is using AI even for temp, even if they think they've covered their tracks, SPEAK UP because people WILL FIND IT

There's an essay in me about this very topic. How minorities get the label of activist shoved onto them for simply asking to respected as human beings, is annoying at best and dehumanizing at worst.

Any one of these massive AAA videogame companies could file suit against the 6-piece Chicken McNobody ringleaders harassing their employees, and that they don't is a choice. I said before of goobergate that the industry enjoys having a bunch of unpaid Pinkertons around too much to ever give it up.

Credits for Brent Porter (3D art lead) and Catherine Menabde (2D art lead) are shown here. There's a lengthy description of what they did, with a  pastiche of various Demonschool characters underneath, messing around with a computer.

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

Credits are basically a free space. Players will watch them or not. Those who do will come to understand how each person participated. We also credit everyone who ever touched the game in any way. This means for a relatively small team our credits are long. But who cares? Why be stingy with it?

elon fucking killed a major piece of not only driving game discussion, but also sheer inherent word-of-mouth advertising. it has no doubt kneecapped many small- and mid-sized titles and i can't even tell what big games are popping off right now unless they have a Little Guy people wanna doodle

Made myself something self-indulgement because I've been slightly demotivated lately, excuse the recent lack of art! Making this did fire me up a bit though!

"Death of the Author" doesn't mean separating the author's bad behaviour from their art. It means taking away their authority and allowing readers to interpret the art based on their own perspectives. It doesn't absolve the author of being a bastard, in fact it may inform how you interpret the art.
