We’ve got merch!!

I want to enter the world of mechanical keyboards, where do I start?

I'm really really struggling to find potential Sponsors for @limitbreak.co.uk at the moment We're not looking for huge amounts of money. We're a very lean programme thanks to our amazing volunteers! Can you help? Look at out Sponsorship Deck or share this post 💖 limitbreak.co.uk/sponsorform

gang I have one more week off before I start a new job

Gf wants this bread jar but it is too small to hold bread. I am enraged, what is this meant to be for??

The thing I hate about imposter syndrome is what IF I am actually not good enough

Rider is great because occasionally the suggested names come out with something absolutely ridiculous and it brings me so much joy

Play Consume Me! (It’s so good you won’t regret it)

After years of programming, I’ve finally bought my first programming book! I usually learn by doing, so it’ll be interesting to see if I actually remember anything I read

We came 164th in creativity out of almost 10k submissions in gmtk jam! Insane!

Last couple hours to rate in GMTK jam, and we’re a couple off 50 reviews 🤯 Would appreciate any final reviews if you took part! itch.io/jam/gmtk-202...

We did it!! GMTK jam completed and my first time with Godot! Would really appreciate any feedback and ratings 💕 ➡️ oludo.itch.io/lou-lou-lass... Massive legends = @oludo.bsky.social & @snail-legs.co.uk

Am I insane for agreeing to use Godot for GMTK jam when I’ve literally never even opened Godot before?

I’ve been doing CV reviews for some programmers looking for their first industry role and I just got an updated draft after my feedback. Is this pride I’m feeling? What is this gooey happy feeling lol

In a very unfortunate typo I told my tech director that I’d send him a nude next week I MEANT NUDGE

I’m in dire need of some silly fun game making, so I’m doing GMTK jam next week it’s happening my dudes

Watch my Impact Day talk where I chat about securing a junior programmer role from bootcamps, internships and mentoring to failures and redundancies Forever thankful for @manycatsstudios.bsky.social 👇👇 youtu.be/XQK9Y-xtT6M?...

Cats out the bag! I’m doing a slightly unusual talk on how I almost didn’t get into the games industry

Does anyone else get this weird empty feeling after big networking events like develop?

Slop is low effort, no heart. Not low budget! There is a big difference

Being in the 2.6% of players to complete BG3 in honour mode really hits though

Just finished a 7month co-op honour mode run in BG3 where withers kicks me out of the ending party because I was… only wearing pants?

I refuse to believe that game developers just have to accept layoffs as an inevitable part of the industry

Looks like another mass of layoffs, restructures and game cancellations. Xbox, Romero etc etc Can someone smart and business-y tell me why this is a Q3 thing?

It’s the last couple days to donate to the pride fundraiser I’ve been running at work. We’ve raised £480 for Mind Out so far, but I’d love to push for a bit more ✨ Please share it around and if you can, throw a few quid at it! It’ll go to a great cause that’s really needed right now

Impact Day is on Saturday 19th July. Celebrating the games industry and disabled people during Disability Pride Month, we are excited to bring talks from a range of professions! From QA to Art, Voice Acting to Leadership there is something for everyone. #ImpactDay Register here: lu.ma/iq4ty0ly

okay I got the furniture dating game

I don't understand. When does the layoff start?

So proud and privileged to be a small part of this team! 💕

Stood next to two drunk posh boys talking about how much they can bench and it’s so funny it feels like I’m getting punked

Wholesome Direct releasing cool tshirts to raise money for a trans charity is exactly what I need to see rn

ah there are so many games

Ah yes the age old ‘freelancers don’t count it’s solo dev’ discourse

People and media often say Balatro was made by 'one guy'. I feel like that unfortunately may be stoking the flames of this David vs. Goliath narrative a tiny bit No it was not 'one guy', look at the dang in-game credits

Not Nintendo boxing the switch 2 so badly that some got staple punctured straight to the screen

Unreal joining unity on Y-up is big news personally just because it’s one less context switch for the noggin

Sometimes I get flashbacks to my autism assessment where they asked how I brush my teeth lol

When you see takes like this from big CEOs, remember it serves them to make game development faster and cheaper

Want to be a better ally but not sure where to start? Here are 4 things you could start doing right now: 1.) Speak up for trans rights. If you are a games studio, use your social platforms to support your trans employees. Visibility and allyship from cis people is more important than ever.

Came across some VERY obvious ai art framed in a small welsh town shop for £45????

When the artist is funding anti trans campaigns, do you really think you can separate the art from the artist

Biggest achievement is coming 1st on a level in the golf/football game - Striker at IMPACT yesterday (this may or may not be sarcasm, I love to win)

Sick art, sick music and kissing! I’m in, just pledged!

I’m on the shortlist for a game dev heroes award!!! Huh whatttt

I’ll be going to develop in Brighton again this year, are any events announced yet?

I’ve been documenting the past year of my gender transition. It’s felt uncomfortable to write down my thoughts and take photos but I know my future self will cherish this

If you’re mad when games get released with too many bugs and not enough polish, you can’t also be mad when games push back their release

Last chance to apply! Would be great to get more programming applications as I personally feel it’s one of the least diverse disciplines - especially in terms of gender!

I really enjoy programming but I still struggle with the fact that my brain can’t be 100% every day It’s impossibly frustrating getting stuck on something that yesterday would have felt easy
