βEvery game is a view on how the world should be or should not be, and ours is too,β Signargout said. βSo, for example, we knew from the start that if we made humanoid people, we wanted to give them colors of a wide range, and so that's what we did."

Y'all, we are looking for TWO PLAYERS for our Rivals tournament tomorrow. Please message me ASAP. We had a few people sign up who cannot make it.
This is a fundraiser for Trans Lifeline.
Why are female video game protagonists constantly searching for their lost father or lost husband? Are they trying to tell us that men are bad at directions? Because... wait yeah, that tracks.
It was always a thing during consulting. For all the games Iβve consulted on, Iβm in. Dry few credits sections.
There was a time where consultants were included, but only if you nagged or had it in your contract.
Incomplete credits are a disservice to everyone who contributed.
βTonight we are celebrating people, not AI. Animation is more than a prompt, itβs an art form that needs to be protected.β

Jacob Elordi sat in the makeup chair for 400 hours while filming Frankenstein?! I hope they let him play Skyrim while he was sitting there. Or maybe Persona 4 & 5? #Oscars
I came close to experiencing this once, but alas the roof of my car port was in the way. The owl was sitting atop the roof and I was underneath. We were both very disappointed.
A short preview for Quest 64 taking up about 1/3 of a magazine page.
βAs you can see here, Quest 64 has some incredibly sweet graphics for an RPG.β
(EGM 102 - January, 1996)
There's a good video on the topic that trended for a bit which explains the process, how to identify it, and also how these channels have turned the whole thing into a grift where they're trying to evade moderation or criticism.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but all those "video game OST city pop/synthwave/jazz fusion remix album" you came across are AI slop.
Some times you just gotta check their channels and tell yourself "no way this dude is composing hours worth of game covers in less than two weeks"
I'm definitely the person who needed to hear this. I forget that AI can be used to make "music" too. This sucks. π
Lady Gaga performs in a black and red outfit that looks like a... lampshade on her head? An onion-shaped lampshade?
He said Lady Gaga looked like a boss from Elden Ring and... He's not wrong. #Grammys
I didn't say anything because I wanted to focus on the positive, but yeah. Addison Rae. I do not get her. π£ Glad to see I'm not the only one.
Wooow Trevor Noah mentioned Elden Ring on the #Grammys

Lmk of you still need help and I'll get in touch with my brother, who is a speaker expert.
It probably will make the price go down a bit. I'll bet the price on the Wii game will go up, though. At least for now.
I am shocked and enthralled. π

I'm doing better now that I know you saved this magnificent TV from going to the landfill!
Okay, thank you.
Are state colleges and universities included in the schools banning these books?

Game Boy Color: Tech Deck Skateboarding
When I was a kid I had this Tech Deck game on GBC. You probably already have it on your list, but I figured I should mention it just in case.
The list has grown. It is now 107 total games, 55 of which feature skateboarding as a primary focus of the game. Work continues, but I think I will start going silent on this as it is now turning into a book, but I am not ready to announce it publicly just yet! ;)
The game that Roger "makes" in 101 Dalmatians was actually a real game you could play, and I was obsessed with it when I was a kid.
This is a really thought-provoking article. A good read! I didn't actually know they had made so many big changes to the remakes.
I love this idea! I wish I had the dedication to share something every day, but I'd probably fizzle out pretty quickly. I'll be following this list, though! π
