Bear with me, I anticipate your disagreement. There is a clear pattern to the advice given to those who want to press back against rising racism. What it boils down to is that if you point out that racism is often being dressed up as “legitimate concerns” you will alienate people. /1

The Direct was to announce a new F-Zero right?.... Right??? Did they shadowdrop a GX/AX bundle?

Neil Goodman, lead dev at Nerial, said of the workshop: “Andrew is friendly and helpful to work with, good at gently steering us back toward best practice, but also pragmatic about giving us the maximum value from our time - as a small team who are also working on every other part of the game.”

www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fNB... Watched this and thought it'd upset me It didn't! There's a few things I disagree on regarding how it plays, and from a dev point of view so many challenges we overcame to release what was released Could talk for an age on this... plenty of fair points in the vid

Xbox 360 Avatars Editor music, the complete collection. 0:00 to 9:56 NXE 2008 Dashboard Update. 9:57 to 19:53 Kinect 2010 Dashboard Update. Lots of marimba! youtu.be/M87b0yeB6Dw

Honestly the perfect license for a belt scroller beat em up.

Just played #Gaime’s Time Crisis at #Gamescom, impressed that the lightgun works so well with LCD!

Hidden Folks is this week's ✨ Free Game ✨ on the Epic Games Store! It's a beautiful & silly game I'm very proud of! You search for hidden folks in hand-drawn, interactive, miniature landscapes. store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/hidd... For Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS (!!) (in the EU).

Though it's been a while, still proud of my ten years at Rare. Got to work with some amazing people and learned an awful lot about how to make videogames. Here's hoping they stick around for another 40.

"So from an executive perspective, lighting comically large piles of money on fire trying to teach graphics cards how to read is, surprisingly, the logical play." - fascinating read, would recommend.

Seeing that a (traditional) arcade lightgun game being made is so exciting. As much as the fixed-gun/turret games are _fine_ [they feel more carnival-game than arcade-game to me], this... a "proper" held gun game... is awesome My wish is to one day be part of a dev team making this kind of game

Have time on my hands (not much I hope) so I'm poking around with Godot Engine. I don't expect to make anything, but fancied a looksee. Wonder how long until I feel I can prototype something quickly.

Aye, but what about a new Viva Piñata game, can someone make that please. We need that lovely calm* game back in our lives. (* if you ignore all the violence and sex that game had)

Report: Xbox Execs Were 'Blown Away' By Cancelled ZeniMax Game Earlier This Year.

I'd have loved to have worked on the Perfect Dark Reboot. Even the pre-viz/trailer looked cool IMO. Someone should really create a low-fi spiritual successor to Perfect Dark and GoldenEye (heck, even parts of PDZ). We don't have enough spy-em-ups.

The middle is going to be destroyed, can’t even think of a publisher right now they can reach out to The quality of the team and game makes no difference. I hope people can internalize that - it’s not you My heart goes out to everyone in this place or even with this fear hanging over their heads

man i uh, would've liked to play that zenimax mmo www.ign.com/articles/the...

Sad to read this. No connection with Rare as it's been 15 years since I left, it's still a studio with absolutely massive talent and loads of potential. Here's hoping that this means a reboot and refocus on a more successful future (either inside or outside of the company).

Guess I'm out in the wild, again. wiloverton.com for all your silly cartoon needs.

Tears. Hugs. Relief. This vote meant everything. Thank you to everyone who has supported the Bill, and our campaign for compassion, choice, and dignity. #AssistedDyingBill.

Oh man, this is what I struggle with many modern games. As a dev it feels so “artisan”* to be considering where in a frame you process input compared to animation or player state… maybe it doesn’t matter to the world, but it still matters to me. * as much a pejorative as not here

It's so so good

We're outside Parliament to support the #AssisteDyingBill today. Our message: Act for the terminally ill! We hope MPs remain committed to crafting a law that is robust and safe, yet deeply mindful of the experiences and dignity of those facing their final days.

I'm looking to build a new Static website, previously I used AngularJs, but think this isn't the modern way anymore. Should I try GoHugo? Seems to be relatively recommended (plus means I get to learn Go, which I see talked about a bit), anyone have other suggestions?

Dredge. It's a bloomin' awesome game. Yes, only just getting into it, in fact my whole family are now fighting over time to play it GamePass is wonderful for trying out games and finding a gem you'd maybe miss... Downloaded it as DOOM Dark Ages was taking too long to download. Not booted Doom yet.

And only 6 months until Perfect Dark Zero turns 20… everyones third best Perfect Dark game.

Your reminder that the annual revenue for the British fishing industry is around £1 billion, and Games Workshop’s annual income on its own is around £500 million. I wish we could see this.

Lovely to end the week with a 9/10 “excellent” from Nintendo Life!

I'd really like to see Steam make changes to their 30% platform fee. I understand they have no incentive to do so, but even a small change to say, the first $100k of gross revenue would make a massive difference to indie developers.

Balatro, turns out the whole world wasn't lying. it's good. Not since Sword & Poker have I felt that a game just makes so much sense.
