Good. Fuck AI and every game that uses it.

We have a little over 24 hours to save the internet. The vote for a package of internet-freedom destroying bills is being rushed to the US House floor on Monday the 29th. Spread this beyond Bluesky, ASAP. www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

Tokyo Indies Champlooのバンドルに『スーパースライムアリーナ』を入っています！🙌 バンドルの主催をした@sketchyceviche.itch.io さん、ありがとうございました！Tokyo Indies記念日おめでとうございます！🥳 We're part of the Tokyo Indies Champloo bundle! 🙌 Thank you @sketchyceviche.itch.io for organizing this as part of Tokyo Indies' anniversary! Congratulations! 🥳 Steam

Over the past 2.5 I published (and continually maintained) a collection of scripts for #godotengine . Some I am really proud of. Like line_renderer, scrollcontainer_plus and sfx_player_3d. It's essentially my dreamlist of "wish you were part of the engine". 8bit-memories.com/projects/god...

I got to hear Emi talk about this principle a little bit when he visited Japan. As hardware prices increase and generational leaps seem a thing of the past, I'm glad that they are prioritizing making and engine for sensibly sized games that run on modest hardware.

before the green moon is both hugely inspirational to me and criminally underplayed. like what if a tarkovsky film was entirely cast with animal crossing villagers

Still one of the best to do it every Steam Sale! Go check out Colin's recs! And maybe kick them some bux for their dedicated work pulling all of these threads together every time ko-fi.com/spacetwinks

You could not make something like Project A-ko today, not because of any of the risque material, but because everyone wants to protect their intellectual property. From Yuji Moriyama's commentary track:

Reality is a camera trick. Films, games, police bodycams — all depict a version of the first-person perspective. We use those sources to unconsciously decide what “real life” should look like through that digital lens. The camera manipulates our expectations, always. youtu.be/BEM_qZEX5VU

the engine we use & the games we're making!

Helping out our brothers and sisters in the Quake mapping scene! NextBroom, the non-generative-AI fork of Trenchbroom, is welcoming contributors to lend a helping hand! Head on over to codeberg.org/NextBroomTea... to check it out!

Some people say full bans are unenforceable because you have to remove anything retroactively found to be AI. No, you only have to remove known legal liabilities and have consequences for violators. Purity of origin is unattainable within Godot or dependencies. It's about culture and messaging.

But for now, developers and supporters of AB-412 need your help! And it’s as easy as signing the petition! ( actionnetwork.org/petitions/le... ) . Let your legislatures know that you support this bill, and in fact want them to go further. Share this around, the more signatures the better! #ab412

so godot has real time textured area lights now and what the Fuck we are actually just in awe

60% drop in reviews if people even smell AI on your game - full supports the investors, developers, and publishers that took a hard "no gen-AI" stance, despite grifters' proclamations that they were "going to be left behind".

Been catching out the demoscene prods from the last Revision demoscene in April, and have been wowed by 'Second Nature' (DESIRE/The Twitch Elite and Hoffman). This is an A500 OCS single-disk prod, created for the humblest 1MB 7mhz Amigas, always the most impressive to me.

It's completely impossible to show how many people there are here because the lines of protesters loop around corners, but, today, too, a big anti-war protest in front of the Japanese parliament. #国会正門前大行動0619

In position and rocking those shades. 📺: Ghost in the Shell GBC, avalentine1996, 2025 (GBC/GB)

Godot: - is free & yours to modify - isn’t run by shareholders with a different agenda - doesn’t support genAI - is easy to transition to - is very capable - has its own quirks - exports to desktop & mobile, and to console through 3rd party services (for now) lmk if you need help transition to it

So for this Juneteenth, I went back and updated my feature on the need to incorporate more Blackness into your gaming perspective, more relevant now than when I wrote it years ago. Check it out on @pcmag.com www.pcmag.com/opinions/cel...

Demonschoolクリアした！！めちゃくちゃ面白かった！！！！！これはロマンスイベントでチームの一番コミュ障と一番イケメンがキスすんのを虚無で見守るスチルと、バカのスチル

The free and open web is facing a major threat from publishers that are trying to change core internet standards at the IETF. Altering these protocols could harm how we use the web every day. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

#GodotEngine 4.7 is here! 🎉 Like a cult classic movie, Godot 4 has only gotten better with age; the 4.7 Director's Cut offers colors of never-before-reached intensity, helming a bevy of new features to eliminate any remaining friction between you and your vision! godotengine.org/releases/4.7/

New Crocotile 3d update! (v2.7.1) + the 20th Crocojam begins soon! Lots of additions, improvements, and bugfixes- check the changelog for full details! Also, Thanks Dazzle.Rase14 for the Chinese translation of the documentation! #lowpoly #pixelart #indedev #gamedev #3d

Another new blog post! This is a bit more in-depth. 10-15 minute read. I designed Destiny encounters for years but haven't ever talked much about what that actually means. So here you go! #GameDesign #Destiny

also it's author said this (which breaks my heart a little bit)

One more week to submit your games to the bundle, please consider!

Also: If you want a list of Steam Next Fest games that don't have an AI disclosure, SteamDB has a handy filtering option for that! steamdb.info/sales/event/...

Imagine owning Double Fine and even *considering* closing it. The history of Double Fine is the history of the games industry itself. This is a crime.

Had to make some queer versions for pride

The web should be accessible to people with poor internet connections & assistive technologies. As a UX designer, I will absolutely die on this hill.

In gamedev, we're used to sound coming from single points in space, but how do we handle sound coming from an irregular shape? In this article (with plenty code snippets), I go into details with the Point Cloud Sound technique I'm using for water and foliage: blog.runevision.com/2026/06/poin...

it's basically the number one rule to any medium ; you can't just tunnel-vision and pigeon hold yourself into a corner. that niche may feel comfortable but it's stifling and prevents you from seeing "the bigger picture" in any sort of artistic/cultural context

"self-indulgence era" is my contribution to manifesto jam 2026 davemakes.itch.io/self-indulge...

the other part of this, which is more insidious and harder to quantify, is that code assist generates code with zero to low in-house expertise, no long term planning, and no documentation. it's true what they say, the documentation is more important than the code. generating code sacrifices that.

did you know The Matrix is a really good movie? shocking insights,

This was the rare Instagram reel people in my life sent me and were right to do it.

Extase, Cryo Interactive, Commodore Amiga (1990) A French concept album video game from developers already well known for them. Compete with a rival player to send electrical impulses to the mind of an android going through a cycle of awakening, all while shaping the soundtrack playing.

so I've been looking at my finances, and all my income sources have plummeted I'm gonna have to shift my focus away from #half-edge and giving talks, because unfortunately they're huge money sinks I can't afford if you can, I'd appreciate your support, especially now ❤️ www.patreon.com/c/acegikmo

I feel this viscerally

✨️ finally officially announcing my first game ✨️ WATERFUL: a peaceful nature-builder where you dig riverbeds to guide water through desert valleys 🏜️ make tiny ecosystems blossom! 🌴 grow a variety of plants 🦊 discover animals in the new habitats ⚙️ unlock contraptions to reach new areas

"On social media, Japanese users have begun sharing the hashtag #推しエスニックといつまでも —roughly, “may my favorite ethnic restaurant stay with us forever”—alongside a petition (...). The phrase is affectionate, even playful. But beneath it lies a serious anxiety".
