South of Midnight is packed with dark, gothic folklore you probably shouldn’t go digging into. Haints, boo hags, mythical creatures... All lurking in the shadows. Oh! it’s 30% off on Steam. Just saying. 👀 #SouthOfMidnight #Halloween #SouthernGothic #Folklore #IndieDev

Here it is! I'm glad to announce I'm lead artist on Bad Ice Cream: Triple Scoop. I've been in charge of tweaking the existing assets from the original trilogy as well as working on a bunch of new graphics to keep the visuals as varied and exciting as possible.

Brazilians recommending not to amplify right-wing talking points by dunking and quoting, as a winning strategy Next day, my tl is full of people dunking on rfk jr I literally would not have seen the bigotry if it wasn't for y'all repeating it. That's exactly what the Brazilians were on about!

This is Laika’s magnum opus. The story is simple, but gripping. The world feels alive and dangerous. The danger itself is real (people DIE in this). The animation is so good, I forgot it was stop motion at parts. Art in motion on screen.

Wildwood is dark, funny, intense and awe inspiring. A testament to human creativity. I cannot fathom how much time and attention went into that movie.

Might start using my ko-fi as a sort of dev blog. I have a week of PTO coming up and I'll pretty much be spending it playing games and working on mine.

Between Castlevania: Belmont's Curse's platforming and Silver Pines' photography mechanic it's becoming pretty clear that Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown managed to make a mark on the metroidvania genre. As per usual, Ubisoft were complete fools for dissolving that team.

If you told me this statement was written by a rogue employee I would believe you.

As always no AI was used in the production of Knights of Guinevere. Everything you see here was crafted lovingly by human hands and human hearts.

She's awake. Knights of Guinevere EPISODE 2 IS OUT NOW

Untouched factions of the Marvel universe and their plan was for two more X-Men and another symbiote.Phoenix Cyclops and Jane Thor are at least spins on the characters we're not used to getting but overall the season of four characters isn't very exciting.

You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid

GTA 6 has received a rating of PEGI 18, revealing mentions of "decapitation," the ability for players to snort cocaine at any time, "scenes of sexual fetishes," and much more.

Just realized today marks TEN YEARS since Crowtel released on itchio..! I made a bulk of Crowtel discretely during my 3Dmodeling and compsci classes in high school, which probably explains why to this day I still use the same software I used to make Crowtel 😅

FF7 scenarios with pre-rendered backgrounds were always a mystery to me during childhood; but even to this day it's still something that amazes me. Now you can inspect every single Final Fantasy VII stage, including the 3D path + variations. #FF7 #FinalFantasy #FFVII #PS1 #PSX #RetroGame

Pet project: 1) Advanced PS1/N64 game extraction (+all animations). 2) Website where you can browse and compare models, textures, animations, FMVs, for preservation. Already have FF7, Mega Man Legends 1 and 2 and MediEvil fully ripped. #FF7 #FinalFantasy #FFVII #PS1 #PSX #RetroGame #N64

Memes aside, if this gets widespread it means devs will start designing around this system and having it dictate the pace of the narrative and game flow. Remember when Netflix started having their writers add in exposition so multi-taskers could keep up with the show without actually watching it?

Microsoft has filed a patent for ads that could interrupt games after boss fights, cutscenes, quests and multiplayer rounds Players would receive credits granting temporary game access, while watching an ad would award another credit to let them resume

in a week that saw microsoft give activision the reins to halo and bungie pivot back to destiny, one thing has become abundantly clear: the people in charge do not have a long-term, overriding plan. they’re just reacting. the result, when times are bad, is chaos
