Happy Not Christmas Day, to those that celebrate.

this article is like a small glimmer of light at the end of a gigantic shit stained tunnel where we're all forced to be stuck in traffic

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier. Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder. thisweekinvideogames.com/feature/conc...

Pretty disappointed in both @humblebundle.com and especially in @girlswhocode.bsky.social. Please teach girls how to code, don't push them into generative AI. That won't build their skills. Prioritize foundational programming skills and awaken their interest. "Tired of long days writing code"???

And as we all knew would happen, the game with a publisher and hundreds of employees that cost tens of millions of dollars has won indie game of the year and debut indie game. Apparently independent means uh, giant studio financially dependent on others. Very fair, real indies can totally compete.

@valvesoftware.com @steampowered.com please put some proper thought into this... It's depressing and unacceptable

@valvesoftware.com really needs to start communicating this type of things properly... Why risk losing so much goodwill they have from their playerbase with this type of decisions...

It is not misconduct to unionize, and I hope that Rockstar and Take-Two face serious legal challenges for what seems to be a very clear-cut case of union-busting.

It's worth reiterating that independent creators are getting debanked for the same content

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

The honest reason I don't have microtransactions/season pass/ads/100 DLCs/etc in Balatro isn't just about the ethics of those practices but because when I play other games that have those things it makes me want to put my computer in the dishwasher and set it to pots & pans

Yes, I'm religious. I believe in the holy trinity.

This is an early SNK game that @frankcifaldi.bsky.social and I tried hard to find during the creation of the SNK 40th anniversary collection, but we couldn't find one of the very rare boards, nor anyone who knew anything substantial about it. And now here it is!

After years away from game dev, I couldn’t stay silent about my people’s dehumanization. I made Dreams on a Pillow 🍉a game inspired by a famous Palestinian folktale about the 1948 Nakba. I’m crowdfunding it now—please back & share! 🔗 launchgood.com/1948

Anyone that has a chance should chip in to this. May everyone have the chance to tell their stories

Capitalism really makes sure that no good thing lasts without eventually becoming crippled with every soul sucking money making strategy to steal as much as possible over time. First peek into the filth

Thank you for this early Christmas gift, @beforemario.bsky.social! 😁😁

i dont need to see no gif to know that I will buy whatever the fuck tour de pizza spits

just got around to playing peach showtime, and my god the ability to restart from checkpoints so one could get all the stars without restarting the whole level would increase my enjoyment of this game tenfold

Keep seeing people say the Paul vs Tyson fight was rigged. I'm going to refute this, not because I’m defending Jake Paul, but because I want people to understand the specific scam that’s happening. When you dont understand how you're being scammed, it just means it can happen again:

Starter back for game devs all around to get to know each other! Good to see how accomodating this side of the social apps is <3

Added keeptrying.itch.io to my header. Never really felt like doing it on the other app considering I haven't done any new project in a while since I became one more cog in the professional side of the industry, but this app feels way nicer, and in the end there's still some stuff I did there I like

Most i ever had is a single Venusaur EX, even with the premium pass. sad life

“You actually cried playing a video game?” The game:

this industry is a perpetual sick battle royale at this point

having worked at an 11 and a several hundred people project I miss the "need to do wildly different stuff everyday" vibe that a small team brings. especially when there's no crunch involved in the process, only constant learning

love when games are like "PLAY THIS GAME NOW! RIGHT NOW! THIS LIMITED TIME EVENT IS ONLY GONNA HAPPEN ONCE! I DONT CARE IF IT'S YOUR GRANDMA'S FUNERAL! WOW, YOU WERE IN SURGERY? FUCK YOU. PLAY THIS GAME. FOR LIMITED TIME REWARDS. ONE FUCK UP AND ITS GONE FOREVER" and the pub/devs think this is good

Everyone: Physical media preservation is more important than ever! We can’t let ourselves become normalized to owning digital products of our time/finances that can be taken away at any time! Nintendo: hey we made your Pokemon TCG mobile Everyone: YOOOOOO HERE’S MY FRIEND CODE

It's a good app

Nintendo Music Online starting with ost's up to NES/FDS and even things like Wii Channels actually gives me some hope that they'll put obscure stuff in there rather than drip feed the same 10 mainstream things over a year
