Glacieres peaked my interest although wasn’t the biggest fan of that main character design… but definitely will cop. Then that ending scissor reel with UFO 50???!? Like that’s finally on the switch!!!!

Well dweller has such a good art style! Neverway had me cheering with my homies about how good the art is. How could people say it’s average for just these alone? Ball x pit might be my favourite tho I love the art style, the gameplay mechanics and it scratches the brain !!

That indie worlds showcase last night to me was incredible so many great indies coming out. I have a feeling that the current climate of gamers are just afraid to step out of their comfort zone of what they know. Like Mina the hollow? Look so so so good! Big fan of the hollow knight devs

For my next game related uni class I have started working in unreal engine. Somehow this is my hardest challenge yet is understanding the UI it’s just not clicking for me… oh well we got this!! If anyone has any recommended resources on how to learn please let me know! I’ve been through in the deep

Unfortunately i feel like game pass may not be the selling point they think it is. Cause im confused as to how a game like doom the dark ages can turn a profit if a majority of its player base is on game pass. Especially when game budgets are higher than a lot of films…

You cannot layoff nearly 10k people and in the same breath make the claim that your organization is successful. You are not successful, you failed all those people, and you have tarnished the games industry ad nauseam. It's embarrassing.

I don’t understand? I’m pretty sure they’ve laid off a majority of studios they’ve purchased. Yet we barely get any Microsoft studio games?

> be Microsoft
> buy company known for award winning games
> don’t do anything with them
> layoff and shut down the entire team

Thank you AAA gaming industry! Gotta love your totally incredible practices.

Buy and support indie games !!!

I can confirm that we are working on the game and we hope to bring an experience that is actually able to be beaten and hopefully bring and expand the original vision to life!

The 24 hour game jam so I would like to present the first look at our project I Am Rooting For You! This is hour root spawning system so far! I worked on the actual root spawning system. My team mate made the art and created the system that updates the art depending on the placement

The game jam theme is Enlarge which came off pretty difficult to my team mate and i but we have an idea.... We are making a potato strategy game where you grow your roots to reach the soil. I hope to share updates if i don't get too distracted!!

Another year another UTS game jam. This time I’ve got a team mate! So hopefully it won’t go to shit like last year. Either way this will be fun!!! (And very stressful)

Saw Sinners last night, it’s been a long time since a film was so good it left me speechless.

Good news!! One of the team mates fixed the art and there is no longer ai generated works :D

What that being said i would like to say the itch banner might have AI generated art as another team mate did that using canva which has so so so much ai in it. But here it is! the game i spent more than a month making... bugbench.itch.io/slimeborn

And with that the game is done... it ended up being a broken mess but hey it is done now. The group missed the deadline and i had to stay up until 7am fixing it to get it into a some what playable state... But things were still broken.

The guy in the group responsible for the itch page didn’t have time to draw it and it’s in a different art style to his work. And he won’t supply where he got the assets from….. and the sprite work feels off putting and some of the art is in a different pixel size
