It is never going to stop being funny that Eric Adams had to drop out, even funnier that 6,000 schmucks still voted for the corrupt fucker

Worst post yet

Does the subscribe button actually do anything on YouTube anymore??

Remember a couple years ago when we were all doing top 25s on topsters.org? Silksong done, I decided to redo and RIP BotW Top 10: 1. Shadow of the Colossus 2. Journey 3. Kentucky Route Zero 4. Spelunky 2 5. Disco Elysium 6. Dark Souls 7. Inside 8. Night in the Woods 9. Little Inferno 10. Ico

I make nice, slidey camera like Super Mario World :D #gamedev

It is finally fall 🥰

Watching Ta-Nahisi Coates podcast appearances is so refreshing. He is the only liberal pundit to actually move left in the last 2 years, and now spends his interviews staring incredulously as his liberal pundit friends move *right* in response to Trump and Israel

Pretty sure harassing mods into banning someone happens all the time on every platform, actually

It is 90° at the end of September. Fucking kill me

Things Silksong succeeds at that people don't talk about: 1. Keys are rare and exciting 2. Gibberish voices with more personality/nuance than any other game 3. money is a resource that actually matters 4. Multiple diagetic fast travel systems 5. Hornet has a full Smash Bros. moveset ready to go

After the enlightened centrist boring parts, the Kimmel returns monologue is honestly pretty funny. Robert DeNiro still got it

Even More News Maintenance Phase If Books Could Kill It Could Happen Here DF Direct Weekly Taken, btw 🥰

For the love of god, stop calling Hades 2 an indie game. I promise you that game has a budget in the 10s of millions

I've got a quibble here or there, but Hollow Knight: Silksong is a genuinely remarkable achievement

Reminder from the Dark Souls subreddit that bullying people into not posting AI garbage still works:

We don’t want AI slop. Stop sending us AI slop. Stop wasting our time with AI slop. It doesn’t sound good. It’s antithetical to our core values. You didn’t even make it. Knock it off.

The motorcycle made me lose a lot of my hype for Metroid Prime 4. It just looks really boring and kinda rudimentary. Can someone please convince me to be excited about this again? I was excited for like all 7 years 😭😭

Conversations like the one happening around algorithms allowing *the Charlie Kirk video* from a couple days ago scare me. Well-meaning people want this stuff banned from social media, but I don't think they understand how quickly that also means anything and everything related to Gaza gets banned

So far, Silksong > Hollow Knight I'm really impressed with how tight and satisfying the new movement + platforming mechanics are

The difference is that Silksong is a really good game

Royalty Free-For-All just passed 50% of its goal :)) 17 days to go, and I'm starting to think we might actually make it <3 www.kickstarter.com/projects/aaa...

Silksong is 👍👍

got to check out a demo of @royaltyfree4all.bsky.social, a terrific brawler game that's halfway to its goal on kickstarter! Amazing and unique characters, great cartoony animation and style, beautifully drawn stages

The studio I work for is literally called 'AAAA Games.' I really thought we were future-proofed...

I know we're all passing around the same $20 bill, but Royalty Free-For-All, the game I've been working on, just went up on Kickstarter. If ya'll checked it out or even just liked/shared this post, that would mean the entire world to me. Thanks, #gamedev www.kickstarter.com/projects/aaa...

I have improved upon your design - introducing the new 65:7 Ultra-ULTRAwide Handheld Marmot Z3

Haven't felt like this since The Last Guardian came out...

Finally replaced one of the last gameplay placeholders in Royalty Free For All. Coded Oliver Twist's radial recovery like 6 months ago, plopped in a 'draw_circle()', then we all kinda forgot about it lol. Now draws a thicker, palette-swapping circle to match the vine, even added leaves <3 #gamedev

Just got home from PAX West. Forgot how much fun it is to watch folks try Royalty Free For All for the first time, and even more fun to see returning faces from last year. Really happy with how far the gameplay's come :) #gamedev

I know it's the new hip cost cutting thing but let me tell you as someone who worked on a game that got utterly reviewbombed by Chinese players due to the poor quality of the translation ...don't fucking rely on genAI translations. Thank you.

That new Silksong trailer... Did they *remove* slopes?

I wonder if Dropout's popularity will result in a statistically significant uptick in improv enrollment

Literally just wrap some pickle chips in a slice of cheese; it's all you need

Man wtf happened to the New York Times. Was it always this bad?

This feels like a question with a correct answer

Donkey Kong Bananza is really fun, but idk how much longer Nintendo's going to find success with these big freedom-centered, wide-as-an-ocean-deep-as-a-puddle blockbusters with very little personality. They struck gold with BotW, but sooner or later people are going to want the depth back.

Bananza is really fun. I like when it goes "OOOH BANANA"

I was raised on Ozzy. My dad's all-time favorite. RIP to the Prince of Darkness

1/10 My thoughts on this are complicated, and begin with an embarrassing admission: I was a physics crackpot in high school. It is so very tempting, when you're good at physics in school and inspired by stories of spacetime and quanta, to imagine yourself in the role of Einstein, Feynman, etc. 🎢🧪

If there's one thing that getting yelled at all day for saying that I will not vote for Gavin Newsom in a hypothetical 2028 election has made me more sure of... it's that I will not be voting for Gavin Newsom (or any other politician who pushes anti-trans nonsense) in 2028 or any other year.

I HAVE SOME NEWS (THE KIND THAT IS GOOD) Tall Trails is coming August 4th!!

If there is ever an expose about how it actually sucked to work at Dropout and Sam Reich was an abuser, I will simply die

Pentiment funny game

I'm thinking this is about as deep as I need the faux 3D first person to go. Next is to do some dithering at the farthest layer so squares popping in as you move feel a little less jarring #gamedev

Importantly: this sort of stuff happening in states goes hand in hand with the parallel erosion of due process that federal courts are endorsing.

Just called a friend cuz I thought it would be funny to say happy birthday on the wrong day, but it turns out I just forgot it was their birthday, and I did the normal thing

I think I've finally got the faux-3D first perspective I'm going for, so it's finally time to start adding the deeper layers (you'll be able to see 2 or 3 more tiles 'deep'). Once I added walking, I think the illusion really started to work. #gamedev

fake 2D wireframes are so satisfying to look at <3 #gamedev

In my long quest to crate the blobber of my dreams, I finally figured out enough about basic perspective to make a tileset that extends more than 3 blocks! I come back to this kind of project every couple of months as I continue to learn, and it's starting to feel possible! #gamedev
