Sverige idag. 💛💙

Read all the details about the new Swedish citizenship law now that it's on effect. I will learn Swedish and get my citizenship out of spite to cast my vote against the absolute idiots who voted this reform for the rest of my life. Fy fan.

Nintendo goes after another fan project. smh

Our team has been shipping stuff like crazy this spring, so we felt we had to step up our game and wrapped it up in a neat little video on top of the usual blog article.

The extremely handsome "Scoot Manis" you see here, is the mod merchant you speak to in the game to access mods. Thanks to @regionsofruin.bsky.social & @rawfury.bsky.social for immortalizing me in your game & congrats on the release. Now to make a mod to buff my characters stats through the roof 🤣

Ça semble un peu fou : aujourd'hui Origami enregistre sa 100ème Hebdo ! 🎉🎂🥂 RDV 13h00 pour fêter ça avec du Banga et des jeux vidéo ! www.twitch.tv/origat... youtu.be/bY7rpSdrutI

There's just 22 days left to back Rescue Ops: Wildfire on Kickstarter, and help us to make the firefighting simulator of your dreams! www.kickstarter.com/projects/155... #indiegame #kickstarter #indiedev #simulatorgame #firefighter

This is #WhatAGameDevLooksLike! I’m JC, I’ve been a gamedev for 10+ years in AAA/indie, and I am currently lead producer and (NEWLY MINTED) COO at my studio, @twirlbound.com! I love making cool stuff with cool people, developing sustainable career paths, and of course yelling (lovingly) about Jira ✨

For any request in March, the easiest way to contact me will be through Steam DMs as it is unlikely that I check any other device.

Next month, meet the @mod.io team at @officialgdc.bsky.social in San Fransisco. We're bringing our full range of solutions, with an emphasis on the latest: Switch 2 support, monetization solutions, account verification, file validation systems and automated moderation.

Happy to announce that I've joined the very fine folks at @shirogames.com as COO & Head of Publishing. It's a great studio full of talented and kind people and I couldn't be happier to be helping out with games going from Wartales and Northgard, to new productions like SpaceCraft and Farever.

Very proud of this end of year message to creators, supported by some of our dearest partners. ❤️

Fifteen Years xkcd.com/3172/

Anno 117, Europa Universalis 5 and Endless Legends 2 all out and I'm stuck there having one of the busiest months of my career when all I want to do is sink 200 hours in each.

Another partnership that feels quite personal, one of my favorite game franchises, and the old friends form Ubi and their crazy talented modding community renewing their trust in mod.io. ❤️

Mdr le PS ils vont regarder la victoire de Mamdani ils vont se dire un truc du genre "faut qu'on soit plus présent sur tiktok" au lieu de capter que faudrait juste être de gauche.

Glad that the people travelling to Stockholm for the For Devs conference will get to enjoy appropriate local autumn weather. 🌧️

I've spent 5 years at Paradox during the development of Bloodlines 2, very excited for everyone who has been involved with this project to see it live. I've zero credit to take or stories to tell about this project, better people than me have always been the ones making the hard decisions for it. 🖤

Finally got my final trophy in Helldivers 2, platinum baby. Did it all for Super Earth.

More GCAP content from mod.io. If you're in Melbourne this week, don't miss @scottreismanis.bsky.social and Joshua Astbury fireside chat about the evolving landscape of modding & UGC, on Wednesday! registration.crowdcomms.com/gcapandagdas...

Boosters: AI is changing everything, you're either on board or you're left behind! Reality: AI has had little impact on the labor market, adoption across industries is very low, and execs claiming that they automated junior roles are often simply lying

Once again, incredibly good and very difficult to argue against.

Had a blast being part of the jury for this, even if it led to late night sessions to play all the mods. Gor worried for a minute with this contest but ended up in awe with the quality of the submissions. Still the early days for FP2 modding community, but crazy stuff already available!

Hard to explain to people without kids that my highest high right is my daughter taking a huge dump in a pot.

If I'm being honest, I'd just like to have a week off to play shitloads of Helldivers 2 right now 🤷🏼‍♂️

Been playing the entries from the Frostpunk mod contest and I'm thoroughly impressed. Have a hard time imagining getting back to Vanilla which is rare for me (maybe surprisingly considering my job but on well!)

Hello! I want to speak with game journalists who left the world of ads and corporate ownership behind to build worker-owned, independent publications. Is that you? Do you want to chat about the trials and triumphs of independent media and what it means for reporters and devs? Let's talk!

Hi! I was laid off from Firaxis this morning. I wrote leaders and civs for Civilization VII (NDA for now) and Deadpool and Storm for Marvel's Midnight Suns. I also wrote the award-nominated Hindsight. I'm available for full time, remote work starting ASAP. DMs are open: emmkid.info

Incredibly frustrated to see AI functionalities I don't need, that and provide no value to me, being added to essentially all the tools and software I use. Taking space on the UI and creating frictions and frustrations in an otherwise good user experience. No AI is every day more of a USP to me.

It's gamescom week! Find out all the details about our presence in Cologne in our dedicated page: mod.io/gamescom And meet us in Hall 3.2 for a chat around a cup of our signature User Generated Coffee!

Super glad I get to attend Anders' talk (@highnorthstudios.bsky.social) at #devcom ❤️

I'll be at Devcom in a couple of hours, once I've checked in my hotel and stuff. Gonna try to watch a few talks from friends today before I'm stuck in meetings for the rest of the week. Howler at me if you want a quick chat and/or a hug!

Très content d'avoir pu récupérer ma casquette @origasky.bsky.social juste à temps pour la Gamescom.👌🏻

0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself *sad*. He is starting to suspect Kras Mazov *fucked him over* personally with his socio-economic theory.

Better solutions for developers bringing UGC & mods cross-platform, and stronger tools for creators to manage their content and community. Get a summary of everything we'll be bringing to gamescom in our latest newsletter. newsletter.mod.io/p/modio-news...

Finished The Alters, today. Brilliant game, @11bitstudios.bsky.social keep hitting me up with entertainment that feels designed specifically for me. Got obsessed with it for the past five days, spending as much time as reasonably possible on it until I was done ❤️

My beloved juniors, please take this advice to heart If you're invited along with industry professionals you admire, you don't need to put any effort into impressing them. You're doing just fine the way you are, everyone just wants to vibe. Partake in conversations just like you'd normally do.

Victoria is the reference ressource I give to people I mentor in the field; I expect her book will be the new gold standard for learning the craft in the game industry. She's done it all from small to big and has always shown a truly encompassing and caring approach that's excellent to learn from.

“In a new paper published earlier this year in the Journal of Marketing, we uncovered a surprising pattern: The more knowledge people have about AI and how it works, the less likely they are to embrace it.”

I'm officially available for consulting! Need C++ expertise for games or software? Could use some profiling and optimization? Want training your employees? Feel free to reach out! And remember, if it's not made in the Champagne region of France, it's only ✨Sparkling Code AB✨!

Just absolutely staggering. If even Brenda and John aren't safe from this brutal capitalist recklessness, nobody is. www.thejournal.ie/100-staff-la...

Been working with @cdprojektred.com teams for the past few months to bring Cross-Platform Mod Support for Witcher 3. You probably can guess that it's been pretty cool, but you'd be wrong. It's been fucking amazing. ❤️

I've now lost my water bottle at the gym 8 times, and I'm frankly at the stage with my brain where I'd appreciate it if someone would bring le behind the barn and put me out of my misery.
