NO GAMEDEVED TODAY! We're moving the next one to TUESDAY, February 3rd to allow for a post-EdJam2026 special! Please come NEXT WEEK to see what people have cooked up over the weekend jam! #scotgamedev

journalists whose job it is to roll up to places and talk about how bougie they've gotten [so move/invest now for maximum dividends] should be. I'm checking the british law right now. going back to school to get a real job.

Absolute garbage day wrt painting and drawing.

#gamedev #bevy fieldnotes 2026-01-24 More bevy ui wrangling today. I got more art studies done earlier in the week, so I'm starting to feel back in the groove there.

keep seeing people posting about ages people are today. some people are 26. some are 47. I hear there are others but it's not really a scene I keep up with. I have the wikipedia page for "ages people are" open but I don't think I have the time to understand the context today, I'm very busy.

#gamedev #bevy fieldnotes 2026-01-19 Been doing a lot of different things today and over the weekend. Today I've done some more art studies and UI design and listening to a lot of music.

Okay, another #gamedev #bevy fieldnotes 2026-01-17 This week has been very busy! Not much time for working on Rare Episteme. Yesterday I did some graphic design studies, but those are all in my notebook. Today I'm back on making the local card archive workable.

Gently: I think the sweet little leftist fiction that right-wing politics are the result of epistemic gaps---that you can just newsletter and educate and evangelize your way to leftism---is dead. Consider: many people want to hurt others. Want to feel superior. Want to inflict pain on the lesser.

Our statement concerning the decision to not grant interim pay relief to the member's fired by Rockstar. We remain confident in the strength of our case against Rockstar Games and we reiterate our firm belief that Rockstar broke the law when it summarily dismissed 31 union members.

#bevy #gamedev fieldnotes 2026-01-10 Technical work is so much easier to work on than world detail for me right now, I wish it wasn't. Engineering is a means to an end.

my new year resolution was to stop getting thwacked so much andf it’s already ruined they’re swatting me out of a window tomorroww ohjjhhh nNooo

New post! "Realtime Raytracing in Bevy 0.18 (Solari)" jms55.github.io/posts/2025-1...

Okay, back to my gamedev project for real.

First time touching oil paints in ~6 months. Suffering massively from "doing art after a break" syndrome.

If you're an american, you are required to be involved in constructing the conditions of something other than america. there is no reform, whoever you're pinning your hopes on to Fix This is not an international organised anti-imperialist front.

This is my blood

Liberal objection will never be enough to prevent the imperialism of America and it's allies no matter which party is manning the war machine. We see this time and time again.

Back in Edinburgh :)

hey new bluesky users! welcome to the site. make sure to tag all posts with #post

I'm now on bsky.app/profile/floa... :)

Remember: late December is the best time to maximise crisis dividends. If you wanna be Going Through It you need to be on the grindset yesterday. Isolation. Feelings of lack of accomplishment. Envy of others' circumstances. A lingering emptiness. These are skills you need to be locking in RIGHT NOW.

TOMORROW, at OX184 from 6pm until late will be our Final GameDevEd of the year! Bring hastily cobbled together versions of your games that have holiday-themed additions to their assets to show off if you so wish! #scotgamedev

how the hell are this many of you still using spotify. get a bandcamp account like a normal person.

Fever dreams are so cool, under-appreciated avant garde works in the dream medium.

EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum". PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TvW...

The forbes "this isn't a bubble, this is an energy-based transformation of society" article is so bad it's making me acknowledge AI news at all I'm so sorry everyone.

world where puns are a long lost kitsch art and everyone on social media replies to things they pattern match on with basic rhymes instead.

The IWGB has just announced that 220 letters, signed by Rockstar staff, have now been delivered to leadership at the company, demanding the immediate reinstatement of their fired colleagues.

Over 200 Rockstar staff have written to management in support of unfairly fired union members. We have published more details on our website, although we have not yet released the exact contents of the letter: www.gameworkers.co.uk/rockstar-ope...

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct. That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9nO...

New pigeon pit LP :)

Support this IWGB game workers union fund if you can! They are gaining momentum and fighting back against this union busting from rockstar. bsky.app/profile/game...

Rockstar union workers have set up a solidarity fund to help our fight after 30 of them were fired in an attempt to destroy the union. Help us fight back! Anything you can donate will massively help our efforts to hold Rockstar to account. actionnetwork.org/fundraising/...

Giving myself a little libbing out treat (scrolling through all the zohran mamdani social media stuff) before I get too harsh of a december 2019 flashback.

Solidarity to those in @gameworkers.co.uk targeted by the worst union busting the UK has seen in years. Make no mistake, the management want to squash unionisation of the games industry so workers have less job security than even today. Stay strong peeps, and know you've a lot of support out here!

Rockstar: not only making history in terms of profits, but in enacting the most brazen act of union busting the games industry has ever seen.

This is the most ruthless act of union busting in the history of the UK games industry. Yesterday, @rockstargames.com unfairly fired over 30 employees for union activity. We won't back down, and we're not scared - we will fight for every member to be reinstated.

Will she game develop today. Let's find out.

i love webcomic comments. it's like if thousands of people watching a soap opera paused it every twenty seconds to debate for a full day who's being immoral and what might happen in the next twenty seconds

It's not an issue exclusive to romance but that's the actual issue with "cozy"/"comfort" fare becoming more and more mainstream: unchallenging stories are normative ones, and deviation registers as a discomfort, a threat to a palatable, marketable, relatable package of Stuff Happens To Normal Folks.
