Its not a hot take but man the way the word "content" is used these days. A vile bit of late stage capitalist propaganda, lumping all forms of human creativity and expression into a single wastebin teaching the public to treat all art as disposable.

The way profit maxxing corpo culture has invaded every form of art through algorithms pushing people into daily posting is really weighing on me lately. Efficiency and regularity of making "content" being prized above all else feels so grim, man.

a lot of people are rightly pointing out that the game isn’t live service (because it isn’t) but no one is talking about the macro ramifications of a games industry ecology where earned media (press & influencers pointing out potential failures performs better than finding new possible successes

bangs are growing really long i'm starting to feel like an old english sheep dog

Thank you and everyone! This is surely a surreal experience. We created Hoi and the Amiga version of Moon Child in the pre-WWW era. Things were distributed on diskettes, and later CD-ROMs. Never could we have guessed that more than 30 years later it would be (re)discovered worldwide via internet. 😃😃

Made some #MoonChild emotes you can use on Twitch. They're uploaded by an online friend, hence the PonPonPox username. Grab them here: betterttv.com/emotes/share...

I love when you can tell a level designer was at the end of their rope at one point

In 1999, I was playing a decker in Shadowrun, and tried to distract a guard by hacking a water fountain to overflow, and my GM said "why would a water fountain be on the network? That's fucking stupid. No you can't try." Well it's 2026 and I just want you to know, Phil, that I FUCKING CALLED IT!

I decided to re-register an account to enjoy the memes of our 1990s #MoonChild game. 😁👍 I designed Hoi and Moon Child. Reinier van Vliet coded it, and Ramon Braumuller made the soundtrack. Play Moon Child online: proofofconcept.nl/portfolio/mo... Moon Child Archive: archive.org/details/Moon...

For my game's terrain, I've long mulled over how to combine the epicness of grand mountains with the "what's around the corner?" intrigue of smaller cliffs and hills. After a lot of fiddling over the past two days, I think I may be onto something. #GameDev #ProcGen

trying to post through it rn

EVERY artist absolutely ADORES art made people who are not trained. We all look at it with absolute joy because it feels like the purest art that's possible. We have all this training, but with it comes a lack of purity, and we spend our entire lives in futility trying to achieve that purity again.

i feel like a lesson from the economy these days is that you can just say things and then you will make money

A hot day

"The rise of extreme wealth is one of the clearest signs of this imbalance. In 1987, billionaires held wealth equal to 3% of global GDP. Today this tiny elite, just 0.0001% of the world population, owns the equivalent of *16%* of world GDP in wealth."

So here's a prototype I've been working on for a couple months. You can just play it in on my Itch page Using a Unity Beat Em Up template, I tried adding some RPG elements into it. It's not very good but I hope the vibes and ideas are ok enough :) #gamedev #indiedev #lowpoly

Happy #portfolioday !

Old tactics game prototype. Here I tried to capture real medieval battle tactics within turn-based gameplay. This taught me a ton about what works and doesn't work in turn-based games.

Squeezing every drop of water from their stone. Same day shipping is not worth this institutional cruelty, from a company that will eventually replace every single person for robots and AI the second they can.

hmm... how are you gonna fit on the bus...

The Zeon mobile suits are some of my favorite and I've always been a fan of the lewis gun so now Granvir finally has its own LMG. You can't see anything over the enormous drum but I think its part of the charm.
