The Rockstar Workers Fired Before They Could Finish GTA 6 YouTube video by People Make Games

Absolutely essential viewing from @chrisbratt.bsky.social on Rockstar’s sackings, which appear to be the single most flagrant example of union busting in the history of the videogames industry. Rockstar has provided absolutely zero evidence to support any of their claims. youtu.be/c9nOwjeznjI?...

While developing Artful Escape, our 3D artist Mikey, made an oven asset. It was a nice oven - the work of a true pro. He even put the knobs on. And that’s who we are at Beethoven & Dinosaur. We put the knobs on. Mixtape is almost complete, we’re just putting the knobs on. See you in 2026.

NOVEMBER 5TH Y'ALL.

Congrats to @mike.reuben.games, @leena.reuben.games, and the whole DSD team - I've been DYING to play this one.

Did anyone see that post using the rarmango rigs, where it's like a town hall meeting, and the characters are saying unhinged stuff??? I saw it this morning but i forgot to save it and it was INCREDIBLE

Meditations in an Emergency By Cameron Awkward-Rich I wake up & it breaks my heart. I draw the blinds & the thrill of rain breaks my heart. I go outside. I ride the train, walk among the buildings, men in Monday suits. The flight of doves, the city of tents beneath the underpass, the huddled mass, old women hawking roses, & children all of them, break my heart. There’s a dream I have in which I love the world. I run from end to end like fingers through her hair. There are no borders, only wind. Like you, I was born. Like you, I was raised in the institution of dreaming. Hand on my heart. Hand on my stupid heart.

I wake up & it breaks my heart.

Yojimbo from Final Fantasy X stands proud and stoic with his companion dog Daigoro. We see them from a low angle, and see the blue sky with a moon still visible. Lavendar coloured petals fall from the sky, and mixed in with coins (gil). Yojimbo prepares to draw his famous blade, poised to strike.

It's finally (fantasy) out! 🌵⚔️✨🐤

My work for Summon: Yojimbo is out, found in the Counter Blitz commander deck for #MTGxFINALFANTASY! I had so much fun with this merc-for-hire, and I hope y'all do too! 💰🪙

Mixtape Dials In to Universal Nostalgia Mixtape is a game about music, teenaged hijinks, and feeling nostalgic for "the glow of youth"--especially if you're still young yourself.

Mixtape is a game about music, teenaged hijinks, and feeling nostalgic for "the glow of youth"--especially if you're still young yourself. And as the Devo song on its soundtrack says, that's good. www.pastemagazine.com/games/mixtap...

Cannot believe we've been seen like this.

today sag-aftra filed an unfair labor practice against an epic games subsidiary behind AI vader because it failed to bargain appropriately with the union. more power to them, but this whole endeavor is rotten to the core, an affront to the legacy of an actor who can no longer advocate for himself

I tried out Jeffrey's new animation machine.
And let me tell you, it went beautifully. NO NOTES.

Asked for a "stand to sit at a table" and got this really production ready animation. Can't wait to put it in my GAME or TV SHOW, and show my director.

Investors must be THRILLED this cost $10million.

Holy shit they put mobile game monetization in their slop machine and had the balls to call them "spins". Up next, try "PULL" a legendary tier animation from our plagiarism machine!

WTF is a "SPIN". step right up, spin the plagiarism machine, maybe you'll get something good, maybe you won't?!

Cartwheel Cartwheel is a powerful new way to animate characters for videos, games, 3D, movies, ads or social media.

Finally, their rig looks shit, their animation is the same triple kick I see vomitted out of every other ai animation theft box, their library is full of prbly open source mocap and shitty rushed looking handmade anim.

These people are grifters, and their investors are fools.

It's low rent, creatively bankrupt, and shameful.

I wish nothing but the worst for these ghouls.

The way they pontificate at these conferences is genuinely sickening. Shrieking about finally making creativity accessible whilst simultaneously gutting their creative workforce. It's ghoulish how out in the open they are about this stuff. ILM showing it TED. AI Darth Vader in Fortnite.

If you continue to remove artists from the art, remove people from creating, cut, trim, optimise... You're left with a board room and shareholders watching a flip book of stale, rehashed, ultimately boring "content" that no one will have any interest in.

I still don't see it. It just reeks of late stage capitalism cost cutting. This delusion of believing that you can simply continue to scale while cutting cost is what beats at the decrepit empty hearts of all these moronic CEO's... And it's simply false.

Jeffrey Katzenberg-Backed AI Animation Software Cartwheel Raises $10 Million The company, which says its software will do for animation what “the iPhone did for photography,” also announced the hiring of two veteran Pixar animators.

Thoughts in thread:

Mixtape is joining the Tribeca Festival lineup! 🎧

Come play the demo by visiting the Tribeca Games Gallery June 11–15.

Grab your tickets: tribecafilm.com/festival/tickets

And all so that you can just retell the story that's already been told to a slightly different audience/the same audience? It feels so misguided

After having watched over 600 episodes of One Piece, I can say with unwavering confidence... The live action series is a really REALLY bad idea.

The VFX task for even just the first three arcs is monumental, even if you edit the series down.

Quickly now! Go support this kickstarter for Malys. I WISH TO PLAY WITH THE DEMONS
