She is also a traditional painter in oils and acrylics, selling her work and taking pet portrait commissions on Instagram and Facebook. Let's send her some love in this difficult time, and buy a painting if you're able? www.instagram.com/maveriquemorrow www.facebook.com/RavenHawkImages

Among the layoffs was character artist Christiane Meister — a 27-year veteran of Bethesda and (as far as I can tell) one of the longest tenured women in games, period. She worked on Argonians + Khajiit in TES3, horses in TES4 and TES5, Fallout creatures, and more. (cont'd)

Only 6 days left to back Kaido Genkai on Kickstarter! Preorder the game, grab a custom character or billboard, and help us push toward the Farm stretch goal so I can add tiered rice paddies to do jumps over c:

fresh glowup for our Shibuya space! gradually we are taking over the building...

some good news out of everything 🙏🧡

TOKYO TRAVEL TIPS I’ve been back and forth to Tokyo for 15 years, so here’s my best advice for enjoying the famous metropolis (thread)

was curious who paid for all this but none of the major JP outlets seem interested in reporting that—best I can find is a statement from the US Embassy that mentions “the cooperation of over 20 companies including Softbank and Toyota”

Neverway is a blend of horror, life sim, and action RPG. ₊₊ play the prologue now on Steam ₊₊

blessed by the new bar in town that has yakitori and a gamecube 🙏🙏🙏

Key Fairy officially has a 100% "Very Positive" rating on Steam! People have been saying such lovely things about the game, and we appreciate every review! The game is still on sale for the next week, so now's the perfect time to get in on this game that 100% of people like!

Just a reminder. I'm always surprised how many people aren't aware of this. #Libraries

Modern libraries are amazing and anyone can check out and play physical video games from the library, as long as the physical games exist 🥲

This game is so insanely ambitious for a solo dev!

love this game—just won some pants

Did you know that I've been spending years producing and distributing DIY physical releases for indie games? Because I have! And continue to! It's also a thing most anyone can easily do. (and I've been slowly building my own collection of others' games) pizzapranks.com/tapemarket/

There's always been something special about holding a game in your hands. A lot of us here first experienced our favorite games through glancing at the box art, scanning the writeup on the back cover, or flipping through the manual.

SEGA has the chance to do the funniest thing.

It's #trailertuesday !! Okay, so, I've made a 'Reverse Metal Gear' and here is the trailer: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSnt... It's cool, i mean it! The demo is out over here: store.steampowered.com/app/4377480/... Um, check it out? Please! We got like 20k wishlists in the first month! #indiegame

at this point I feel the Dashcon comparisons are rude to Dashcon, honestly

love to earn 120 units of blood during the limited time Akagi collab event “The Night of Legends Shadows Reborn” in Mahjong Soul

(writing this down)

you ought to include the followup post which points out that touhou has been doing this the whole time

this is actually a good reminder that you should delete the tracking nonsense off of any url that you share online. just delete everything after the ? (including the question mark) and share like you usually would

Remember the internet before Google, before algorithmic feeds, before monolithic social media corralled us onto the same handful of apps? When small, *personal websites* and webrings linking them together reigned supreme? Time to bring it back.

angrier version of The Mountain Goats headed up by John Damnielle is that anything

Akihiro Miwa is a legend. Fukasaku's Black Lizard and Black Rose Mansion are both incredible heaters, Miwa just devours every scene. Here's the scene where you get to see Miwa turn Yukio Mishima into a human statue. Best bond villain in history.

RIP to a legend ▫️Survived the atomic bombing of Nagasaki ▫️Pioneered drag culture in Japan and was one of the first openly gay celebrities there ▫️Had a relationship with Yukio Mishima and became his muse ▫️Delighted Hayao Miyazaki in the recording booth for Princess Mononoke #voiceacting

this is very very good example of how much of The Work is at a local level and depends on people who give a shit about actual bureaucratic governance mixed with political messaging

the GenAI labeling in Steam isn’t really enough, not well enforced, etc… but you do love to see that even the milquetoast disclaimers halfway down the page are enough for people to go “ew, no” 🥰

Our merch store is now open! This is our first time launching anything of this kind. There are t-shirts and stickers available, and your purchase will help support the Spriters Resource sites! merch.spriters-resource.com We hope that you'll enjoy showing off your cool tSR shirts in the wild!

I need all you hip young game devs to go get portal (it's $2 on steam right now) so I don't turn to dust when I have conversations about it at work.

Buy a rice cooker

you already know what's up (steam sale rec thread is what's up) as always, i focus primarily on older, obscure, and just plain weirder games, as big name titles don't need the help. with that said, onwards!

"to a T" a game abouT a Teenager whose body is inexplicably shaped like a "T" and a fluffy dog ThaT helps Them out, is now available! なぜか体が「T」な形のティーンエイジャーと、身の回りを助けてくれるモフモフ犬のゲーム「to a T」、発売中です。 #switch2 #steam #ps5 #xbox #katamari #toaT

you should try playing deltarune

Why would you pay $80 for GTA VI and get one game when you could buy UFO 50 for $25 and get fifty games

eh close enough

so there's a fun trend right now in the deltarune fandom over on twitter where folks rearrange various songs to include the melody of Don't Forget. anyway, just thought that was interesting. here's a totally unrelated runescape video #chess_arts (?)

really liked this ad banner for PokeGo in my hanafuda app that’s just shouting the names of Pokémon at me

So over on our (relatively new) SFB Games social channels, @shikaboom.bsky.social has been putting together some brilliant short form stuff showing off The Mermaid Mask in the runup to launch, well worth digging into if you're interested! Links in my pinned post

hey how many DC area bars do you think are currently serving a cocktail called The Reflecting Pool with like Midori and bitter orange liqueur or something

shoutout to this demo for having the best quote of any I played during NextFest: “You cannot ride your BMX in such a sacred place”

Hello new followers! If you know my music from DREDGE I implore you to check out the demo for the CRIMINALLY underrated hack-n-slasher DENARI, which is buried deep within the steam next fest algorithm. Here's some of the boss music I've written for it: 🔊🎵

some of you need to read capital so you can learn about The Amazing Dividend Surplus

I mostly associate “Death of the Author” with the most annoying film grad student I ever had the misfortune to be taught by but this will now be a close second
