The ultimate power fantasy if you happen to live in a poxy little room in a shared flat in london, paying £1600 a month for the priviliage of not having a living room.

Ryan Gosling as Ryland Grace in Project Hail Mary. He’s wearing a heavy knit Scandinavian (?) cardigan, creamy white with a knitted red Rudolph motif.
The musical kids got their elpheba sex cardigan. Now the space nerds get their grace science cardigan.
The people crave cosy knitwear.
If a game launches with bugs, it’s almost certainly not “bad QA”
hear me out,
a screenshot from the game Spirit Crossing from the studio Spry Fox. shown are three players wearing different themed outfits inspired by pokemon, including a yellow, orange, and green outfit with bunny ears, a hat, and moth antennae respectively. they're emoting happily with stars and hearts surrounding them.

a screenshot from the game Spirit Crossing from the studio Spry Fox. three players are dressed up in fancy mythic clothes that glow, and they're pointing at one another to recreate the meme where Spiderman points at himself.

It does?? Maybe I need to reply DS1 not on a Xbox 360 😅
I still suspect that the white ring lock-on from dark souls was programmer art. It’s so incongruous with the rest of the UI.
Today I put my dough in the oven with the light on to prove, only to later find out the oven was actually on fan at 100C
I was not in the zone
I thought I knew what based meant but maybe I don’t
Normalise sharing your test automation tooling

We're able to do a lot with a small team on Dosa Divas with the help of a bunch of custom tools like our TestRun tool built by Justin our lead programmer. The tool will autoplay through the game at a faster speed to check for any obvious bugs using Unity's built in Navmesh agent.
More than that. Halfway through you need to DEscope! it’s short-term painful but it’s super productive to focus your team on what’s important.

Sure, but epic are all in on the metaverse and don’t give a shit about vr. They care about the platform. Which is maybe what meta should have been doing from the start.
giving this one final nudge before 3/19 to make sure anyone who wants to pick up a copy of Cozy Grove gets a chance to. 🧡
GDC: Festival of Gaming already all over your request that no one know about them. They’ll get there, I believe in them.
That article didn’t say meta are shutting down the metaverse, they’re only closing the vr client.
That’s still a big deal, but horizon worlds will still exist. They’re still gunning for roblox.
I really need some of you need to read articles not just share headlines.
No but we have some branded spanners
Very proud to have been a founding member of the DF Is A Bad Thing For The Industry Actually club
We’d admit new members but we want to see what the public think about it first
A mysterious screenshot, perhaps from a videogame? It shows a barred window in low light, through the window you can see plants growing and some brighter lights beyond the plants. Some smaller plants are growing in the foreground of the image. The text "We'll be lost without you." is written at the bottom of the image and in the bottom right the Hollow Ponds logo can be seen.
Hollow Ponds is looking for a Social Media Content Creator to make video content for our next major release.

Ten GDC speakers badges going back to 2013, speaker badges from various other confs on three continents
Oh no min the cat, a calico, is getting in the way of the shot. I’m stroking her head.
Min’s face, pink nose, white fur, black and brown above the eyes. Speaker badges in the background.
Forgive me for LinkedIning on main, but proud to be adding another GDC speaker’s badge to the pile, and looking forward to a week of bone-melting jetlag
This week! Come see how jetlagged and insensate @andrewfray.dev is.
Did we have a near miss? Safe travels!
Bakers beach in the foreground, the Golden Gate Bridge in the background. Deep blue skies.
Further up the coast, lots of greenery and the bridge looming
The maritime museum and the ghirardeli sign: very art deco
The in and out burger sign, very retro fifties
My flight home from GDC is not until the evening, so I just uber’d to Baker Beach, then walked up under the Golden Gate Bridge, across crissy field, to fisherman’s wharf and a well-deserved in-and-out burger

AI will be good when I can use it to make me not disastrously tired after five days of GDC and four nights of hangouts
in our latest developer blog, our design team sat down to talk about upcoming changes to the housing system in Spirit Crossing. 🏠
if you're intrigued by what the inner workings of that process might look like in the Alpha stages of a multiplayer game, it's a good day! ↓
