they're gonna make a $20m horror movie about the immortal snail that kills you if you touch it and the snail is gonna be a metaphor for trauma

Good thing I have 3 screens so I can keep one on #UnrealFest and one on the countdown of Raf's latest commentary premiere while developing 😄

All uses of AI are costing someone… this sucks as the Game UI database is such a valuable resource.

I just want better for everyone here.

What a fucking joke, not even 10 days ago. Microsoft just retire from games already

Talking of adorable things, just tried the #Spilled demo: very chill and it works with arrow keys, instant purchase 💜 store.steampowered.com/app/2240080/...

It's not sure yet, but I might be soon fostering this adorable little furball 💜

I think the game industry is gonna split, where we'll brand industrial games as AI-filled junk food (and enjoy junk food on its own merits) vs. indie will emphasize some sort of "natural" "organic" "handmade" "100% human" labeling (with all the pros and cons)

Green Games Showcase really needs less podcast and more time showing the actual games, it's hard enough for devs to get exposure. #SummerGamesFest

I really hoped we were done with Epic-exclusive titles after Alan Wake 2 #SummerGamesFest

The incomparable character actor and singer Anthony Head died peacefully from complications of pneumonia, according to his daughters.

“YOU HAD YOUR QUALMS?!” “You told me to be supportive!” Widow’s Bay is so fucking good oh my god. youtu.be/e2ZZaSQuifM?...

I'm always happy for open source developers finding funding, but I hope Cloudflare buying Vite/Rolldown/Oxc won't go the same way as Vercel buying Next.js blog.cloudflare.com/voidzero-joi... #webdev

Copilot addicts are about to have a bad day

depth-based scanner

the latest drama with NSFW flags is another example why people kept warning against bsky being centralized in the US because it will enforce its puritan views sooner or later, just look at Youtube in the last decade You get crazy things like old ads and music videos you grew up with getting flagged

was that a 0451 reference at the end of For All Mankind, on the screen ?

We're getting **2** episodes of #WidowsBay this week ? awesome 💜

A lot of cool demos to try from AG French Direct: store.steampowered.com/sale/agfrenc... #french #gamedev

Best. Wednesday. Ever. The news we've all been waiting for is finally here! 🤩 A brand new expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt "Songs of the Past" is arriving next year. ⚔️ gog.com/game/the_witcher_3_wild_hunt

Finally reached the end of #subnautica2 early access after 70 hours and I'm bawling my eyes out, good job Unknown Worlds, can't wait for the release version 💜 🐟

Fun fact, I learned english as a teen in part thanks to manually translating fanmade episodes of #Millennium from english to french back in the day What a great show ❤️

A great bit from Rich on a first-hand experience of seeing exactly how those vultures at Roblox go after younger gamers, both taking them for a ride and (arguably as bad) poisoning their general relationship with games as a medium. www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

ha talking of Metro and stealth games, just got an email that the original Metro 2033 is now on GOG (not just the inferior redux version), updated to run on modern computers and it's only 2.99€ 💜 www.gog.com/en/game/metr...

A good time as any to remind that #KCD2 can be played like a stealth game (it even has movable bodies), it's not combat-only. It's even been my favorite stealth game since #Dishonored, with an honorable mention for Metro Exodus which has satisfying stealth too but fewer tools

Phonopolis is out NOW on Steam, GOG, and Epic Games Store 📣 We hope you have fun playing with the cardboard city! All links here 👇 amanita-design.net/games/phonop...

I guess I'm gonna have to refund #ThickAsThieves because, you guessed it, of course they hardcoded the controls and forgot left-handed & international players exist, you can't rebind AT ALL. FFS it keeps happening

A creature I designed for Subnautica 2: the Hycean! Inspired by pelagic snails like heteropods and siphonophores.

Immersive Sim fans:

kcd2 comic be upon ye. enjoy 1/3 #hansry #kcd2

I'm so happy the rumors about Warhose next projects were correct, LOTR is a great match for the kind of games they make 💜 #KCD2

I'm looking to hire a full-time 3D artist with Cinema4D/Blender/Octane/Redshift experience with a strong portfolio. The position is in the UK and you must live the most a few hours outside of London - sorry, but there are reasons for this. If you or someone you know are interested, DM me!

Subnautica continues to be delightful, last night I stumbled on an environment that gave me the same feeling of alien awe as the first Mass Effect or Halo CE back in the day 🐟

With the benefit of hindsight after 20+ hours, I can confirm #Subnautica2 is great fun and the narration remains unintrusive, I'm definitely looking forward to the release. Obviously it's still early access, so a few things lack polish but it's a worthy sequel, good job devs 💜

What a pretty sky #subnautica2

Over 1 million Subnauts have already dived into Subnautica 2 🤯 We can't thank you enough for your support!

lol. lmao even.

A few spoiler-free impression of #subnautica2 so far: The water and happy little fishes look gorgeous 💜 Being able to rename signals remotely will be so convenient. Forcefield doors will save time even if I enjoyed the weightiness of heavy bolted doors.

Subnautica 2 launched 20 minutes ago. Safe to say Krafton will be forced to pay out the $250 million bonus it tried very hard (via advice of ChatGPT) to avoid paying

Stumbled on this cute game about finding and feeding odd creatures at night (and it has a demo !) store.steampowered.com/app/3097300/... #cozy

A selection of alien eggy designs I produced for Subnautica: Below Zero :) Tried to capture a creatures' egg essence.

2 hours until #subnautica2 🐟

Here's an awesome new blog post by Maxime Heckel on rendering realistic skies and atmospheres. There's a ton of really cool interactive widgets illustrating each of the steps; I highly recommend giving it a read and giving the interactive widgets a try! blog.maximeheckel.com/posts/on-ren...
