Remember colors?

Remember, Tolkien didn't start working on "The Hobbit" until he was 41 years old. It started as tales for his children that took over 4 years to complete, and he finally published it at the age of 45. It is never too late to start working on something that truly calls to you. Embrace your passion.

Someone asked me why I don't use AI for coding and was kind of shocked when I said: "Because I like coding." "Even the hard and boring parts?" He asked. "The game gets discovered WHILE you do the boring and hard parts!"

The idea that 'AI can speed up dev cycles' would require a premise that dev cycles are long because people are taking forever to make assets (so you could replace them with shoddy slop and it'd go faster), which you could only believe is true if you've never actually tried to make a video game

The game I've been working on for the last almost 3 years at @timberlinestudio.bsky.social is finally announced!!! 😭😭✨✨ There was a lot of love poured into this gem of a game, so please share, whishlist it and tell us what you think of it!!! Hope you all enjoy it, cause we sure do #gamedev #indiedev

Easy answer? The current economic system.

Please, share your stuff:

There's 3 big game stores in the western world. Two are run by billionaires, take huge cuts & heavily limit which games can be published. One is run by a tiny team, is free to use, open to all and is currently hosting a huge queer games bundle. Guess which is being attacked for being "anti-LGBT".

It’s an appreciated silver lining that the industry at large is seeing my former colleagues as the high talent, valuable people they are. My primary job for the foreseeable is connecting people up, and the clamour to talk to these folks is palpable. Good stuff.

It happened a few times to me (someone saying something nice), and it helped way more than a Day.

Its good to remember that there is no shortage of revenue in the industry. in FY2024 the industry earned more revenue than ever, and its set to top that milestone in 2025. The players are there, and spending more money than they ever have.

A key point in Fahrenheit 451 is that books were banned because they made people depressed and uncomfortable. The novel's protagonist, Montag, is taken into custody after he reads a poem that makes a woman cry because she realizes the emptiness of her life.

'Make it political:' How can the Brazilian game industry establish itself on the global stage?

O @ryot.bsky.social é um dos melhores artistas que conheço. Pra quem tem interesse em começar a fazer tirinhas, recomendo demais:

There's no anomaly here. People, globally, volunteer their time to powerful public goods the moment they're not actively terrified that they'll lose their home, their food, and their freedom. Which means that capitalism requires us all to live in fear, always - because it can't compete with free.

Isenção pra data center é a decisão mais estúpida que se pode tomar. Um negócio altamente danoso pro meio ambiente e pras pessoas, que consome ÁGUA E ENERGIA com riscos a abastecimento, tem que ser taxado e não isentado, tem pagar pelo seu custo ambiental e social.

This man is a pet groomer in Iran. I don’t know anything about this particular kitten, but there are many street cats in Iran, and Iranians often take them in — so pet groomers always have lots of customers. Wait for the last couple of meows.

Valve just updated their Steam rules to ban content that “may violate rules set by payment processors or banks.” Sounds boring. It’s not. It’s the quiet normalization of financial censorship and it’s going to hurt LGBTQ+ games and devs

Tá lindo demais, PQP:

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references. Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.

A coworker alerted me to the fact that—starting this week—you now have to buy credits from Adobe to use the generative AI tools in the professional software we already pay a subscription fee to access, even if it generates something worthless…this isn’t a productivity tool, it’s a slot machine.

Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride. However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
