A new pirate adventure has been revealed: Corsair Cove!
Wishlist now to stay updated and be among the first to try the demo. store.steampowered.com/app/1368140/Corsair_Cove...
Coming later this year to Steam and the Epic Games Store.
Your island. Your rules. Build anywhere.
Thank you! I am so excited ✨
In case you were wondering what the hell I was doing between 2020 and 2023.
The game grew tremendously since I left Limbic. Congratulations to the Corsair Cove Team! I can see your hard work and dedication to the project 🎉 👏 💕
(and also maybe some leftovers of my work too 🤭)
Who are we? We are #gamedev.s and other workers in the German #gamesindustry!
What do we want? A #gamesindustry without mismanagement, crunch, underpayment and harassment.
And now we have a website, so you can join us! ✊️

Wikipedia now has higher standards than all universities
After my recent podcast appearance at @stayforever.de where I talked about the optimization of RollerCoaster Tycoon, I finally found some time to also write an article:

If you know German I'd still recommend the podcast, which also dives deep into the rest of the game 🎧
As you use AI to simplify easy yet mundane tasks, like writing emails, you get increasingly dependent on it.
You get lazy, less skilled, use your brain less, and (you may not want to hear this) get stupider as a result.
Don’t let them take away your ability to think. Stop using it. Now.
A photo of Tom Bockhorn, Brenden Gibbons, Sarah Burrini and Thomas Rössig, pretending like we're all in a band, all looking away from the camera. The photo has been edited to give the people in it a pink and green cut-out outlines, and to desaturate the colours to give it a punky feel. Our logo, a little cute comic-style green parrot looking at you, it's head turning quizzically, is on the bottom right.
Quick announcement! 🎉I'm co-founding an indie studio!🎉 Say Hi to Green Parrot Games.
I'll be working with Tom Bockhorn and @laburrini.bsky.social , and supported by @thomasroessig.bsky.social & everyone else at Fourth Moon Games. Please enjoy this not-at-all-cheesy album cover, I mean team photo.

“I really don’t think that’s appropriate behavior/to say at a [professional conference]. Is there something else we can discuss?” OR phrase it as a rhetorical question: “Do you think that’s an appropriate thing to do/say at a [professional conference]?”

Due to recent discussions: when I worked at a library, I was trained on how to politely but directly respond to unwanted sexual comments. Unfortunately commonly-marketed fantasies about librarians mean it happens a lot.
Rehearse these. Be comfortable saying them forcefully, but politely.
Remember the energy saving plugin for Unreal I released some weeks ago? The people at Bold Beetle Games liked it enough to develop a similar one for Godot🥳: godotengine.org/asset-librar...
If you're a Godot user, take a look!

It's this Friday! 💚✨
✊🌀We stand with Ubisoft employees in France and beyond opposing unilateral layoffs, project cancellations, and enforced return-to-office policies pushed without meaningful social dialogue
Creative work needs respect, stability, and worker participation — not top-down mandates!!!!
Demo release date coming up 👀
Discord isn't walking back anything yet, but this shows they are feeling the pressure and you should keep bullying and contacting them until they relent.
