Sacrificial.

The real killer here isn't just the theatrical window (though that's going to hurt at some level), it's the inevitability of them doing damn near everything as a limited release. It *will* *kill* independent theaters.

Thank you for 2025. 🎩❤️ Here is my animation reel for 2025, please have a look and look forward to my works in the coming year! :3 HQ version of the animation reel: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jwi...

I love that Steamgifts hasn't updated their site design at all in like 12 years. Browsing it on a Winter holiday takes me back in time for some odd, incredibly specific reason. It makes me think thoughts I haven't had in over a decade like, "I'm excited for the next Humble Indie Bundle"

Happy New Year! Here's an exclusive wallpaper from @zethz161.bsky.social to celebrate. deskgen.net/resources/dg...

2025

December 2025, selected works.

2026 will make five years of desktopGeneration. A lot to take in, a lot to think on, but a lot of cool stuff that’s going to happen. I’m back to running things like it’s 2021 again and it’s a lot of fun.

This feels like a very good thing & the wording in GOG's announcement makes me wonder if it was explicitly done to prevent something very *bad*.

Φωτεινότητα [ @andrew.desktopgeneration.com x @transendium.bsky.social ] A desktopGeneration Secret Santa gift for Halfprism.

fave accomplishment that i did this year was this Roman Sands trailer that we had to knock out in a single weekend. i did the bulk of the editing & footage grabbing as well a tiny bit of the motion graphics

This is my movie of the year

Marty Supreme tickets secured. One hour to go

holy shit did you guys see what Will Smith just did at the Oscars

introducing the winter 2k25 edition of my ongoing series of digital abstract asset packs, including: - 40 abstract 3D renders - 10 fractal renders out now in high quality all for just a dollar, happy holidays ♡

Almost 2am on Christmas Day. Against all logic, I *really* want to make spam and eggs. Also, I want to see Marty Supreme but it’s gonna take a few weeks for that to happen 🫠

It’s going well.

We're feeling festive. Christmas items are going live on deskgen.net.

Featherfall.

FIREBLOOD [ @zethz161.bsky.social x @andrew.desktopgeneration.com ] Crimson-stained nightmare.

If the RAM shortage is leaving you worried that you won't be able to play a slick videogame that's been intensively optimised to run on the piece of broccoli you use as a laptop then wishlist Roman Sands RE:Build today store.steampowered.com/app/2231460/...

I was told by an ex Lucasarts designer I worked with at Telltale that Dash Rendar, the main character of Shadows of the Empire, got his name from the command the engineers used to update the scene: -render

anyways please forgive me for anything I say tonight, because simply

Moderately intoxicated and thinking about how much I miss working with the Roman Sands crew. Christ. One day you're going to play the greatest game of the last decade. I wish it was today.

23 year old moron still makes artslop the old fashioned way

There's a billion new indie games that spit on that doomerist propaganda, and if that's not enough, there's a billion more games that came before ShitAssGPT which define the material that glorified scraper steals. We can cross our arms long as we want, and my joints are gettin good at locking up.

So look man if we're just gonna be online here watching all these big studios come out and lay down on the tracks about Gen AI going "I have to do this for some reason." then I think it's more important than ever to celebrate games from based devs who are out here openly posting "Nuh uh, fuck that."

The cold late nights make my seasonal depression so much worse. Think I need to go for a sun lamp or something, slim chance I can amp my medication up more but I A) would prefer not to & B) think I'm already at the limit.

Buddi wishes you a Merry Christmas!! ❄️❄️❄️
