aaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaa @demerine.bsky.social we did it ;-;

happy international women's day!

I call this the "Speedrunners use a second adjective challenge" because more often than not, it feels like people who use this language kinda... Stop reaching for anything else, making the commentary SUPER repetitive and hard to parse: is the trick powerful, is it precise, it is unforgiving...?

Stop making live-service games. The market can't sustain their existence and employees don't withstand their failure. Not every game can be a part-time job for players and most are already entrenched in an old favourite.

there is no sickos face in the universe large enough for this moment. what a thing to wake up to

me wen i use my brain haha

One of my least favorite things around AI in video games is when these LLM idiots try to say that "AI has been in video games for decades," as if the routines that tell ghosts to chase Pac-Man are exactly the same as the chat bot claiming there are nine Rs in strawberry.

Hey yall this is your chance to show the trans community you really are an ally and you're not just saying it for brownie points!! -Do not support ANY of this -JK Rowling has said on numerous occasions that her income goes DIRECTLY into anti-trans legislation in the UK -Seriously. NONE. Of it.

good article diving into the development of one of my GOTYs of last year- this game had really good exploration from being unpredictable, sometimes establishing rules and then breaking them

I wrote a few words last night. nvie.com/posts/15-yea...

Fruit study 🍇🍓🍌🥝

The drunk uncle theory. You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there

Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers. If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of: fund.godotengine.org

the Black Panthers were right

I am rapidly becoming more and more convinced that the only way to save my soul as a Human is to do things that aren't for the sake of Value. Relax with friends. Enjoy some art. Make out with cuties. Cuddle a pet. Clean my space & body so I feel good. Make a silly little thing because I wanted to

Reminder/ICYMI for this - PUWP is a great team that I'm proud to be a part of and we'd love to see more people getting involved. Feel free to post in our Discord or shoot me a message if you have any questions!

I need yall to admire the incredible writing style of the bot We're now at the point slop bots will fetch your website to find kompromat to talk shit about you on their blog

they dont need to make another game because of the Devil is getting three more episodes

i love trash games. i love seeing the cavalcade of 'mistakes' and 'failures' piling up before me because it feels so alive and human and it makes me better love and appreciate art. but even as someone who adores trash this ai generated video game bs means nothing to me

Applications for PUWP Team positions are now open! Interested in helping out with planning & scheduling our future events? Here's a great opportunity for that! The form is open through the end of the month of February. Find the link to the application in our discord server!

Happy Black History Month. It's a good time to remind you about Jerry Lawson's influence in the video game industry.

While the C suite at OpenAI would like you to believe that they are about to break new ground on intelligent agents, their researchers tell a very different story. This paper explains that AI hallucinations are not yet to be solved, but rather a mathematical inevitability. arxiv.org/abs/2509.04664

I needed to think of the worst curse I could inflict upon someone and landed on "May someone use your fabric scissors to make paper mache"

If I worked for Google, and I knew it looked this bad, the last thing I would do is give early access to a bunch of reporters who I just *know* are going to gleefully churn out copyright infringement.

just saw 4 ice agents go up to a house and knock and within 1 minute there were 30 people out whistling and they left. we will not take our foot off the gas

In 20 minutes, I'll be going live for the #WildRideRaidTrain with some Super Lesbian Animal RPG Any% Easy :3 twitch.tv/leggystarscr...

I will judge you if youre supporting GSA in 2026. Besides all the other nightmares people shared about PACE, reminder that I was kicked off of an on stage relay run due to transphobia among multiple people in SMB1 circles. When bringing this up to Milo, one of the owners, he didn’t give a shit.

Going live for the #WildRideRaidTrain - FFIX cozy learning times for lunch :3

Installed the FFIX cutscene remover in advance of my segment for #WildRideRaidTrain and uh who's idea was it for that to be super easy and just *work*? I need to shake their hand.

GDQ is great!! But I'd be remiss if I didn't say: please also support smaller marathons, such as: @powerupwithpride.bsky.social @fastestfurs.com @ladyarcaders.com @binarybreakers.com @rrlat.bsky.social @fastpacedevents.bsky.social @rpglimitbreak.bsky.social And so many more!

Absolutely Ruin a Game: "At the behest of our shareholders, we have implemented GenAI powered conversations with every character. Please look forward to this experience."

Listening to danimalcannon.bandcamp.com/album/lunaria as I wait for my flight home. Gonna be listening to SO much new music from MagFest musicians - if you're a smaller Mag music maker drop a link I wanna listen to your stuff 👀

Slightly Diminish a game Lesbian Animal RPG

Slightly diminish a game Dragon Fetch Quest

Holy crap, MagFest ruled so hard. Y'all are sleeping on one of the coolest events I've seen to date. Looking forward to next year already

Act Three

The Protomen Act 1 preshow: Hydration Never change, MagFest

the idea that you can use genAI that’s exclusively trained on your studios content is very silly because 1) yes that’s fine 2) won’t work though 3) a much faster and easier way would be to hand author a bunch of pieces and design a system to mix and match them 4) whoops that’s just proc gen

Shout outs to @skybilz.bsky.social for being a Literal Gamer and blasting through one of the nastiest rando seeds I've seen, full stop. But hey, at least there was Pocket Fruit

make video game

Fresh Air during MagFest

Magfest museum has a bunch of wild stuff:
