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.

James Brown's Latest 3D Displays Are Entirely Solid-State — And Yes, They Play Doom No more spinning LED matrices of death, these displays are inert glass blocks etched with internal point-clouds for external illumination.

James Brown is back with another three-dimensional volumetric display, only this time there are no terrifying rapidly-spinning LED arrays in sight thanks to a new and considerably quieter solid-state approach.

Used to play a lot of Red Alert network games at work during lunch about 20 years ago but never got around to completing the single player of that either.

But it’s also on the list! 👍

After the about 30 years I’ve finally managed to play through and complete Command & Conquer*.

I last played this in my teens but it was just the demo that my friend had and I spent hours building a large Orca army to take out a v. small base. Fun times!

* as the GDI, NOD will be for another day!

Bought my first copy of White Dwarf in quite a while and wow, £7.99 feels rather steep these days! 😳

I appreciate many magazines are nearer the £10 mark and it may be in line with inflation, but it still feels like a lot. 💰

I’m not sure if I was a teenager today I’d be buying it regularly. 🤔

All this discourse about placeholder art made me realize how many devs think that placeholder assets must signal their placeholder status via *sensory* means.

Maybe hot take:
- A "good placeholder" is a meaningless concept.
- Track your tasks.

Covenant was better than Prometheus and slightly better than I remembered but still not great.

What I find frustrating with it is the questionable decisions they make and again the story is a bit meh, but at least we have some reasonable Alien action.

I still don’t like Prometheus.

There is something about the narrative that just irks me and it comes across as rather pretentious.

The lack of the OG Alien is also still disappointing.

Against my better judgement I decided to give Alien Prometheus and Covenant a second chance and rewatch them both recently.

Happy 30th anniversary to "Ghost In The Shell" movie by Mamoru Oshii (released in Japanese theaters on November 18, 1995).

Master System at 40: the truth about Sega’s most underrated console Forty years ago, the Nintendo Entertainment System dominated the markets in Japan and the US. But in Europe, a technologically superior rival was making it look like an ancient relic

Hi I wrote about the Sega Master System and how it’s been criminally overlooked because everyone goes on about the NES like it was the only 8bit console in the world look don’t get me started

Making Penguin Festival's VR gameplay trailer was really challenging, but also fun and rewarding. Here's a little postmortem for my own posterity but also in case anyone else finds it helpful!

Video game giant Rockstar has sacked more than 30 workers across the UK, including my constituents working at their Edinburgh office. I urged Ministers to support workers who have lost their jobs, and stop this from happening again.

[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.] JANET: Ugh... LIZ: What's up? JANET: I am so bored of cooking peas! LIZ: Have you tried... AI peas? JANET: AI peas? LIZ: They're peas with AI! [Liz holds up to us a packet of peas labelled: Pea-i AI - Peas with AI]. LIZ: Al-powered peas harness the potential of your peas JANET: What LIZ [Now a voiceover as we cut to a whizzy technology diagram of peas all connected by meaningless dotted lines] Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas? [Show a techno diagram of a pea with a label reading 'AI' pointing to a random zone in it] LIZ: Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine [Show Janet and Liz now in a Matrix-style world of peas] LIZ: With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas! JANET: What LIZ: Shut up LIZ: Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow From opening the bag of peas to boiling the peas to eating the peas To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means. JANET: Is it really necessary to- LIZ [Grabbing Janet by the collar]: THE PEAS HAVE GOT AI, JANET [Cut to an advert ending screen, with the bag of peas and the slogan: AI PEAS: Just 'Peas' for god's sake buy the AI peas.

I’m not sure but I have a feeling some new hardware might have been announced today by a large multinational corporation.

My feed is rather quiet about it though, so maybe that was just a rumour I heard. 🤷‍♂️

The easiest way to create action lines in a shader is to take some noise and convert its UVs to polar coordinates 🙂
