Met one of my heroes, @foldablehuman.bsky.social, and he was just a kind, cool dude. So, uhh, meet your heroes I guess? #PAXEast

Resident Evil 9, like every other Resident Evil game, starts out really good, steadily gets repetitive, then you end up in a sewer and it's boring

if you don't spent a few minutes making nice little icons for your invisible manager objects, are you really living, #gamedev?

Game I've been working on for 1.5 years has a demo in Next Fest. If anyone's interested in some cute platform fighting, hmu: store.steampowered.com/app/4035380/...

Friend has an EV. An app is required to take the charger out at a public charging station. The app is currently not working, so the charging cable cannot be removed. This is what deregulation actually looks like...

32x MSAA is the killer feature of Mewgenics. Keep this in mind, #gamedev

I think these are the only new games I spent significant time with this year... - Donkey Kong Bonanza - Hollow Knight Silksong - Claire Obscur Expedition 33 - Angeline Era - Fast fusion - Avowed - Skate Story - Metroid Prime 4 - Mario Kart World Silksong, Angeline Era, and Skate Story top 3 ig?

We talk about rage bait and 'rooting for games to fail' like it's this deep, moral failing. Video even claims, 'there's no obvious solution to this problem.' But this isn't some ~mystery~ This is the predictable result of engagement algorithms and an industry that's economically hostile.

"Games are meant to end" philosophy is undefeated

Skate Story is game of the year 2025, easily. Also, fuck ICE

look-it alllllllllll those debug tools #gamedev Thank god GameMaker finally has vector support, even if it's still buggy

Well this is a fun bug. Triangulating vertices (ear clipping) to draw primitives, and I think I forgot to cinch up the first and last vertex 😅 #gamedev

Should grass on a slant stand straight and bend the same as grass on flat ground, or should I keep it turned sideways like this? #gamedev

procedural test scene #gamedev

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

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.
