I’m so sorry for everyone at id Software affected by these layoffs. I know what it feels like to leave id while id goes on. It’s a strange and painful thing to step away from a place that holds so much of your work, friendships and history. 1/5

I took a look at this account’s history and literally all of them sound exactly like this, just wasting people’s time with GPT replies asking pointless questions 😭

So I am at the library reading a book called Schrödinger's C#. A random visitor approaches my desk and asks something about some related author since "she saw that I am reading Schrödinger there".

I'm additionally confused since she's standing in the biology corner and I only have programming books stacked here. No idea what she's looking for. Probably not programming-related. She continues her search.

She comes back 10m later with a librarian, who is helping her look. Mentions she's looking for a *quantum physics* book with a particular title. Can't find it. Looked everyw.... wait! There it is. It was right in front of her all this time, she says. That was so perfect, it felt scripted. 😂

it's cool that there was a huge recession in 2007 followed by a global pandemic in 2020, houses have more than doubled in price in the last 25 years and these guys are like, 'what if it was the iphone, or marvel movies'

Are smartphones causing people to have fewer children? A provocative new working paper explores the persistent drop in birth rates since the iPhone was introduced nearly two decades ago.

Hey #unity #blender #gamedev peeps, how do you work on existing FBX characters that have an armature and pre-existing animations. Now you e.g. want to add a bone to it. Orientation mess. Surprised there isn't tooling to e.g. temporarily reorient bones - or simply change the display orientation?

I've implemented better fog (atmospheric perspective) in my shaders, so distance fades not just towards a single color (like classic fog), but a color which itself gets paler with distance. This adds so much depth to distant parts of the view and I feel it makes the landscape "breathe". #GameDev

It really is excellent! Been playing on TV via Steam Deck with my comfy chair and a wireless mouse :D Reminder to leave a review (I just posted mine) because reviews help #indiedev folks out a lot. 👍

Forbidden Solitaire just launched yesterday, and the reception from critics and players alike has been overwhelmingly positive thus far! 🤩 Thank you for all the kind words! 💙Steam: tinyurl.com/ywj43ptj 💜GOG: tinyurl.com/2s3sv45j 🧡Itch: tinyurl.com/3k4bjt8m

It's tough seeing every single freelance artist I know having the same "uhh I haven't had paying work or sales in weeks" posts, it's gotten extremely tough out there for us. If you have the means, please consider treating yourself to a commission or print or book from an artist you like, it helps!

In these uncertain and divisive times, I am happy to announce that we're partnering with absolutely nothing! This enables us to keep building #half-edge independently, and to focus on better tools for artists and creators - Freya Holmér, CEO of self

Great game, quite perfect for unwinding after a long day of indie game dev :) highly recommend

Adding material options to change things like saturation, alpha clipping threshold, contrast, etc. There will also be wind FINALLY! This would not have been possible without my favorite person on this earth, so I am very grateful to them for teaching me more about math/shaders💗 #gameassets #gamedev

In 5 days we launch Forbidden Solitaire, our 17th game, and it's a weird feeling because either: a) It's going to flop (I don't think it will) b) It'll do OK (and we'll carry on) c) It'll do awesome (and our lives will change forever)

Reminder that you can just noodle around for fun. Draw or paint just for the sake of engaging in a creative activity. Not to be productive or goal-oriented at all. Don't need any special hardware. In fact I forgot my wacom was around and just used my mouse. 😹 #doodle #sketching #krita #artsky

Learning how to get angles with atan() in shaders 🙂 Used atan(uv.y, uv.x) to convert UV position → angle, and created something like a cooldown effect you often see on skill icons. #gamedev #Godot #shader

tried the gltf version in #godot, it works ✨ can recommend! used this pack for my popular environment with the beeg sword in unity: bsky.app/profile/data...
