Brace yourself for a new era of slop, coming to steam and other storefronts in 2027
The video advertising Unity's ew AI-driven autocomplete game maker has 'Mari' who has a game idea they "always wanted to make" and that idea is "Space Corridor" and it looks like this, and that's the strongest argument I can think of for keeping game dev out of the pro-AI crowd's hands.
Tiene pinta de otro año que no puedo ir al @sagabcngamefest.bsky.social. Pasadlo fetén todes los que vais, y disfrutadlo el doble por mi <3

Tough but important read. Though accessibility is the responsibility of everyone, without meaningful dedication, things will inevitably fall apart. Grant outlines the new risks introduced by recent Xbox a11y layoffs well here. We need accessibility standards, testing, design reviews and workshops.
With layoffs at Xbox, sources indicate accessibility efforts have also been affected. What was once a champion of accessibility is now a shell of its former self, unsure if accessibility even has a place at the new Xbox. Read my first report for @aftermath.site here: aftermath.site/xbox-layoffs...

Hoy el día se ha vuelvo un 79,3% mejor.
Hoy vuelve Biotopía. Realmente nunca se ha ido, porque es una historia que lleva acompañándome desde que hace seis años empecé a imaginar la vida y aventuras de esta comunidad científica, pero tras más de mil días de pausa regresamos por fin con su tercera y última temporada.
Late-gen price rising for a games console is already unacceptable, but I have the feeling the long-term plan is to have them reveal the next generation of consoles to an absolutely prohibitive price that you wouldn't otherwise accept, just because it may rise later. FOMOngering at its finest.

Per @ianhamilton.bsky.social — there is a talk that promotes using WCAG for game accessibility. This is an incredibly dangerous sentiment. Those guidelines are not created with video games in mind and are instead oriented to solve web accessibility solutions. Saying otherwise is misinformation.
🧵👇 Each year I help run a little #gamedev community conference we call GMDC, which has a 10-minute lightning talk format. 2025 featured talks on retention, marketing sound, alt ctrl, accessibility, directing, using git, puzzle design, pixel art, and existential crisis. youtu.be/x41eA2IAizI
