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

My plan for 2025 was to start the long process of game dev; my goal for 2026 is to do much the same. But as with every year in this fuck of a decade - I hope to survive and provide space and room to support the wonderous people in my life. We got this, but only together<3

I have to impress upon you that Sudokuvania is a fully realized Metroidvania. It is merely expressed as 20+ integrated variant sudokus. There is nothing else like this. Solving it is one of my proudest achievements. It is a $0 website. Use a laptop. sudokupad.app/6u61fsw0di?s...

"we need ai to come up with npc text" ffxiv players are currently bonding and paying tribute to a glitched lvl 1 mob with no name

"they don't know how to express the idea" here's rian johnson's storyboard for knives out pick up a pencil and a napkin

Okay, I've seen this take enough times that I'm curious: Can someone explain the difference between machine learning and GenAI to me in a way that doesn't just come down to "ML is used for good things and GenAI produces slop"

*dies laughing*

me: ok i need to create a child character for the tutorial, where the kid teaches you about rock paper scissors. but i dont have time right now. let me just

FUCK AI SUPPORT HUMAN ARTISTS.

You'd be amazed how much richer your life and interests feel if you stop calling people "content creators" and instead put a real, tangible name to what they do and what they make an illustrator's paintings an essayist's video exposé a musician's genre-shifted cover a streamer's challenge run

Extroverted Olive Oil

As much as I love buff badass lesbian Samus, I also really love the version of her from that one Super Metroid gag manga where she's this weirdo obsessed with round objects and hiding in small spaces

Due to ✨Winter Magic✨ I'm going to be a stop here during the event! I've got a Switch 2, a copy of Let's Go Pikachu, and so so so much rust I need to brush off. Come hang out and help raise money for a good cause?

being subjected to a mandatory corporate training video that wants me to adopt the concept of "kaizen", which means "to change for the better" man, if only English had a word for that! it would really improve our lives.

The Winter Express Raid Train starts THIS SATURDAY, December 13th, at 7:30 AM ET! Come check out a weekend of speedruns and gaming showcases, all raising money for Point of Pride! You can find the schedule at docs.google.com/spreadsheets... !

the main issue with metriod prime 4 and one I can't believe nobody caught before releasing the game is that 4 isn't even a prime number. the premise was invalid from the very start.

Been playing through Dark Souls 1 for the first time and *gosh* is Sen's Fortress a masterclass in making me REALLY PARANOID ABOUT EVERY LITTLE THING I'M LOOKING AT. 10/10 flawless game design (As someone who got walled by Bloodborne on the second boss, DS1 has been refreshing and fun)

"Is Donkey Kong 64 a Legacy of the Wizard-like?" - the greatest thread in the history of forums, locked by a moderator after 12,239 pages of heated debate,

I befriended the kid by filling up more of my Meat Dictionary and he gave me Grenades for it

Hot* take: I want to see more spiritual successors rather than remakes for old games. I want to see people telling new stories and building new worlds rather than just rehashing old things. I also want old games to be easily and legally playable. * Probably not actually that hot

Close enough, welcome back Endwalker Grapes

procjam starts tomorrow! regardless of experience level, it's a nice time to make some generative art and find community around it. it's a very chill and noncompetitive week long jam.

Hey folks, I often do posts calling for indie developers to link me their games so I can signal boost them. Today I want to do something similar for all trans creatives. If you are a trans game dev, artist, writer, streamer or YouTuber, reply here with a link to your work. Only one rule: no GenAI.💜

who tf modded Allison SLARPG into Yakuza 0

it is funny whenever people get tricked into playing a JRPG and goes "holy shit, why has nobody else done this before?"
