Introducing the <Low Poly Rat Jam>! Team up or go it alone - submissions open 6 - 22 March. No ranks, no prizes, only a promise: I will play and review EVERY RAT GAME. itch.io/jam/low-poly... #ratjam #gamedev #lowpoly #lowpolyratday

I know what Pombon is really like #pokemon #fanart #украрт

New updates for my interactive guide about tweens!!! Very excited about this one because it explains whats the deal with "if tween: tween.kill()"! There are now 15+ fun pages that covers almost everything you need to truly understand #Godot tweens, for free! qaqelol.itch.io/tweens #GameDev #Dev

so happy and proud of what i showed last night (my ass)

Made low-poly goldfish #256fes 256 polygons, 150 vertices each

btw you can hold ctrl+shift to select in intersection mode in blender it can be used to make selections that are inconvenient to make otherwise, i.e a part of a submesh that touches another submesh:

I've made an open source tool for #godot that allows you to create parametric CSGPolygon3Ds for rapid prototyping! Supports: Box Cylinder Staircase Ramp you can find the plugin on codeberg :) codeberg.org/venitstudios... #gamedev #indiedev

@hankgreen.bsky.social would you be up for having a convo about AI and its impact within art? your latest video was great!! I would love to chat if you're up for it c: there's a perspective from my field of game dev you might appreciate (wish we met at thinkercon! I only met the other hank)

My weirdest creation is almost old enough to drink.

Head empty. No thoughts. Treat? Treat? Treat? Treat?

THIS IS WHAT SAM ALTMAN WANTS TO TAKE FROM YOU

Whenever folks ask me about portfolios, I show them this video. In 52 seconds I can see what André is good at. I understand what he is good at. If I need to hire someone who understands game feel, and who can build that on their own, I will interview him. I know this in 52 seconds.

art reveal 🤏

Took the time to put a proper animated logo to my titlescreen and it feels sooooo great 😍

hearing AI company CEOs excitedly telling you how "we can now all finally become managers" without blinking makes me want to pack my bags and move to the moon

Added some automated physics generation for cloth canopies and gave them some poofy feedback effects. Uses just one rigid body - no soft body or cloth simulation. #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

Exteeeend node. For #PixelComposer 1.20.8.

I would atomize 30 year old creative me in a microsecond with no effort at all

Here's a look at how the mattress physics look using my debug view. A mattress is essentially a 3x5 grid of rigid bodies connected with joints to flex, and then stacked on another grid kinda like 2 pieces of bread, with springs between them for compression

This is what the dialogue tool looks like in our Mermaid Mask Unity project. I write the script directly into these boxes, select facial expressions if it's for an examine box, as these are, and I include voice directions, since it later gets exported as a script for the voice actors

when people talk about AI used in moderation of social media posts, you must remember there is always the human-in-the-loop, often a woman, often in the Global South, always dehumanised and forgotten 1/n www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

IMO (and I admit I'm biased as someone who's long liked and admired Greg Kasavin) this is a great response to the reactions to Hades 2.

Nice counter to some of the apathy boiling up on here lately. You can fix things by pointing at them and saying ‘nah’. Anyone saying otherwise is working against your (and probably also their) best interests.

A wistful #WishlistWednesday. Mandrake is a rural life sim, and our first game to feature actual weather.

(A quick backstory if you’re not already aware: JC started the hashtag #WhatAGameDevLooksLike after security guards at GDC stopped her from picking up her speaker badge since she visually didn’t fit the profile of a stereotypical GDC speaker.)

I honestly think these things are so scary. they have ancient knowledge and infinite mouth

having cats is wild there's a whole ass obligate carnivore apex predator with a will of his own sitting on my couch staring at me like this but i love him very much and his name is salad

He is just 1 sauce tall

My solo entry for #brackeysgamejam has been submitted, with plenty of time to spare! The original idea was to make some final changes in the morning since the deadline is still 10 hours away, but I'm thinking I may need to recharge for all the games I want to play and rate tomorrow 😅

Sharing “genderless burger experience” here for those who haven’t seen it

"38% using it for automated tutorials (or in-game coaching) and "dynamic balancing and tuning of gameplay."" Oh you mean like Valve did in Left 4 Dead and the presentation they released on that in 2009? rystorm.com/blog/this-is... I am just asking for people to know their history. It's that simple

You'll meet birds and other animals while riding your bike! Can you recognize this little one? 🐦🪶

this gif was originally made for e3 conferences but now it just represents the entire games industry as a whole

instead of this doomerism, think about what rebuilding looks like. think about how we can make this industry better after everything hits rock bottom.

the worst thing for me is. Imagine you lost a bunch of expert carpenters and you had to learn carpentry from scratch with no teachers, no youtube. That’s what the industry is currently doing. just getting rid of the folks who know the craft, and retaining the folks who know how to parasite

no way home / no exit

Okiedokie. Because I love you all, here's an explanation of how GIT plays into the "ai slop pr" discussion surrounding #Godot, why ai code isn't making it into the engine, and how you can help: youtu.be/ZEDYFndQ5l8

I made tem claws once

Is Benjamin Ryan the guy who wrote this?

CEOs should need to take workshops on being human beings. I don't say that jokingly, I mean it. They're just fucking robots and think their empty words thanking you as they toss you out the door make it any better. No, go fuck yourself.

this is my local community member ludovic. he came to every xanadu local. he helped coordinate carpools to get other people to the venue for street fighter. he represented DMV at majors. he respected all TOs. he IS fgc personified. if you don't have the funds to donate, pls just repost & share.

Here to handle colors suspiciously
