The demo is now available for Solar Automata's magical realist novella OBLIVION 2666. solarautomata.itch.io/oblivion2666...

After the whole GDQ SNK thing yesterday, I had that weird moment where I had to step back and remind myself that "Real world dictator is trying to use Art of Fighting 3 to become god king emperor of ESports" is a fucking insane thing to actually be real.

A hidden terribleness about the AI translations of older games that keep popping up lately - in this case Tricolor Crise for the Dreamcast - is the way they knock the wind out of the sails of the people who are trying to actually do it properly. LLM version didn't even use the right character names.

this still doesn't feel real like. i read pat's book on getting into fighting games 10 years ago, when i was a freshman in high school. being interviewed by him now shows how far i've come

One of the more influential forces in the FGC, imo. Modders inadvertently do so much to make this a fun, creative community space. I've witnessed and felt a lot of the downstream impacts.

Q&A: Aeryn "WistfulHopes" Mu, fighting game modder extraordinaire Got to talk shop with @wistfulhopes.bsky.social, one of the baddest fighting game modders out there! We chatted about her ASW modding work, tech art on MvCI:B, and her Night Sky Engine for UE5. www.patreon.com/pattheflip/p...

also custom characters in bbcf. that's funny too

i miss unlimited mode in blazblue centralfiction in fact, i missed it so much that i made it work again.

im trans and disabled and cant get a job and me and my partners have to move in the next two weeks. would appreciate absolutely anything

It's always troubling to see how little trans girls and women get centered in transphobic rulings and patterns that directly target us. "The problem is this will affect cis women" is the usual refrain, which reflects a lack of certainty about defending trans girls and women AS girls and women.

what the fuck is this bruh

"Trans people will always exist." Cool. "They can't kill us all." Comforting. Yeah, transness will survive, but *I* want to survive, too, y'know? But also, survival and existence aren't enough for me anymore, and they shouldn't be enough for allies either. I want to see my trans friends thrive.

Massive Earthquake happened in Venezuela during EVO weekend. The Venezuelan FGC is doing their part to help spread awareness and receive support to rebuild their homes and save loved ones. Please help our FGC brothers and sisters.

whenever i see people talking about modern gacha games my head spins, 3d gigantic gachas scare the fuck outta me i miss the days of dokkan and fgo and such ruling the gacha space. whatever happened to monster strike and puzzles and dragons

not even 3 months after moving into my first apartment, i and 2 others living there will need to move *again* because one roommate has been impossible for us to live with, and is now actively trying to manipulate us into turning against each other

Imagine you're playing Deltarune Chapter 7 and you get into the final Knight fight and you just hear Johnny Gioeli going "MY WILL TO FIGHT THE KNIGHT, MY WILL TO FIGHT THE KNIGHT, MY WILL TO FIGHT THE KNIGHT"

wow yeah the side by side of my xrd kagenashi shader vs default is wild. as blasphemous as it feels to say i kinda like mine more

Trinity Glassfille announced for BLAZBLUE CENTRALFICTION #blazblue

i've been considering going to college just for a degree, but i'm struggling for funds as is and don't know if i can financially afford it, and plus i have other obligations (like indie studio stuff). i don't even know if the games industry will be better by then either

When Classic Sonic is sad in Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, he pretends to fucking die.

new character coming to Blazblue Centralfiction. More info at EVO

Suraj has a point.

With alt text. "We built the library. Someone else started charging admission." This is what I hear when someone says, "Don't get left behind." It's more of a Gold Rush than anything else. They mean if you don't make the move to (literally) take advantage of others' work first, someone else will.

sucks how hard it is to find a stable and well paying job in the game dev industry now. despite what i've accomplished i still count as a junior as i haven't shipped any titles yet, so i basically have no chance competing against senior devs

god i'm still so upset about ue6. all of my existing tooling is basically useless when the existing gameplay framework + bps are removed. the insanely bad design philosophy makes me sick. i poked around and outside of autortfm there is nothing there that makes me go "wow that's cool" at all.

I wrote over 2,300 spiteful, measured, personal, and hopefully-entertaining words on the recent Unreal Engine 6 announcement, from the perspective of a tired computer girl / gamedev. I literally added blog posts on my site for this! That’s how petty I am.

looks like ue6 comes with "visual verse composer" to write verse like visual scripting. unfortunately the verse systems in ue6 main are currently pretty busted

Game File: Microsoft already planned to shut down or split with Ninja Theory when Senua was announced. "The thinking was that the promise of a newly announced game would help draw investor interest in the studio" www.gamefile.news/p/xbox-studi...

ue6 is horrible news for me. deprecating blueprints and actors, merging in uefn and verse, integrating llm/mcp support, metaverse bullshit... wow

Remember how Microsoft bungled both Halo and Forza this gen by forcing so much of their dev teams onto contracted workers, meaning that by the time they had gotten accustomed to their work they were gone and had to be replaced? Just to save money?

any pokemon tcg enjoyers follow me? I found a really rare card in my collection and want to know what condition you think it's in

The Z Fighters #godotengine

"ai can't write good stories, but it's useful for concept art" "ai slop can't replace real artists, but it's fine for programming" "ai can't write maintainable code, but it's good for translations" everyone assumes their own field cannot be replaced by ai, but fields they understand less can be

I'm not strongly attached to my location either, I just wanna stay in a blue state due to not wanting to live in a red state.

What I can offer: Do you got land? I can grow food🫐and make gardens🌷to reshape your land. Don't got land? I can do gorilla bucket gardening to grow food🍅in your windows. I just don't wanna trade my body anymore, please help me.

One guy rejected me as a roommate because I'm a trans woman, while chasers are trying to get me to trade my body for shelter, I am sick and tired of people taking advantage of me. Someone please help me...I can't take it anymore.🙃

I'm currently stuck in Spokane Wa and desperately trying to find a room to rent, but everywhere seems completely out of my price range. I've been searching nonstop & keep hitting dead ends. If anyone knows of an affordable room, or someone looking for a roommate, please help me. I really need help.

[HELP] I'm a trans woman who became homeless after being told to detransition or live under a bridge. I have no support or family because of it. For the last 6 years I've been doing everything I can to survive, sleeping in my car, on floors, and couch surfing wherever I can find a place to stay.

The cops came, we talked things out and we're not in legal trouble but next step is to talk to the leasing office. For now we're dropping by my parents to survive the night

Hey so my jackass roommate who was supposed to be moving out decided to come back and call the fucking cops on us lol

stop being smaller, an anti-specialist manifesto for #manifestojam2026 messy as hell and under the wire but wanted to put something down that's been on my mind roxaloxa.itch.io/stop-being-s... clumsywords.blog/stop-being-s...

there are so many people who loved their job a year ago who hate it now because of this shit

every company using "ai" has split its workforce into two groups: those who are useless hacks and those who suddenly want to kill themselves
