What the fucken hell do better @baftagames.bsky.social this i so shameful.
Multiple times Alyx offered to make changes. Trailer work infamously deals with lots of last minute changes and moving parts. And despite that, the door was open to make further changes, but no, cancelled THE NIGHT BEFORE.
I love when you can tell a level designer was at the end of their rope at one point
I just have no faith in this sadly. Maybe it'll surprise me and be decent...
It's so funny to read converative posts about the Trump Jesus Tweet.
They can all be boiled down to: "I can't condone this one".
What the fuck do you mean you could condone THE OTHER THINGS?
I used to see this kind of stuff a lot with story based games outside of RPGs (Especially around The Last of Us and Horizon). Yes those games are story based, but they're not self insert games.
A character making bad choices does not inherently make a narrative worse.
Shoutout to the game I'm working on being entirely squares.
We also have a shitty JPG hammer with some VFX work!
Article text saying 'Tim Sweeney's current net worth is $5.1 billion'
I was gonna post a head banging gif but it's just not appropriate.
This is fucking bleak dude
Not sure how I feel with it being animated. *Definitely* hate Adam Baldwin being involved.
But I can't believe I saw the day a Firefly reboot got announced wtf
GDC's 2026 IGF winner calls out U.S. cruelty at home and abroad
fuck sake. Book of Lenses is a goated book.
I guess everytime I look at it, I'll frown from now on 😭
I swear you literally cannot win in this industry
We are literally goverened by morons who are in the pursuit of destroying art.
I've also noticed in the newest version I'm getting this constant bug where after the editor updates it auto highlights a random object in the scene, and opens up a random folder 🙃
Is it weird to say I think Firewatch might be a revolutionary game?
One of the worst parts of applying for jobs is how I'm expected to write thousands of words tailored to a specific job, then just move on like I didn't spend like an hour or two on it only to see "we've gone with someone else, also no feedback".

You need to understand how fucking broken this country is and how little this will help. Why are Labour the worst? Jesus Christ the bar was on the floor and they still tripped.
Not a nostalgic one but Celeste is probably the peak of 2D Platformers!
graphic that says no ice in Minnesota itch.io charity bundle
The No ICE in Minnesota charity bundle submission period is now open: itch.io/jam/no-ice-i...
All games, free and paid, TTRPG and browser based-alike are welcome
Submissions are open until January 26 & the charity bundle supporting a Minnesota based Immigrants' rights org will go live in February
At this point I'm borderline begging companies just to even give me a chance to interview and test ._.
I think applying for jobs has been the single most demoralising thing I've ever done in my life. Not just games industry, just in general.
Stressing about money knowing there's no fucking end in sight for unemployment. It's awful.
Hah I found that great quote. The deities bless this wonderful person that is @neilnewbon.bsky.social
Using genAI for concept art is so fucking stupid because like... that's where you get the cool shit. Thats the blue sky phase where artists make pieces of art that will be seen by a teenager later and change their life forever. Why would you want to start from mediocre. Why would you do that.
heads up
Our statement on the recent layoffs affecting workers at Coatsink, Splash Damage, Glowmade & Square Enix, putting over 300 workers at risk of redundancy in the run up to Christmas.
If you work in the UK games industry, join our union today: iwgb.org.uk/en/join/game...
I really hate that the AI bubble has actually made me suspicious of regular art these days, it fucking sucks 😭
how is it possible to have a job application denied after an hour of applying when it's a massive studio and the job posting has been up for like 20 hours 💀
Truly will avoid every game that uses Gen AI in some way (until some proper regulation but that's a pipe dream so probably forever).
A screenshot from Celeste. Madeline stands by a memorial dedicated to those who perished on the climb up Celeste Mountain.
happy transgender day of remembrance
thank you for sticking around in the hardest of times. if you haven't, you are missed dearly
please live 💜
