store.steampowered.com/app/3946750/... <시럽과 최고의 디저트> 후속작 <시럽 2: 사탕의 연금술사 RPG>가 이제 한국어를 정식 지원합니다! 마법이 가득한 세상에 마법 없이 오로지 연금술만으로 사탕 제작의 정점에 오르려는 주인공과 그 주변 친구들의 이야기를 다룬 RPG 게임으로, 전작이 제가 10년 전에 처음으로 번역한 게임이라 여러모로 저에게 의미가 깊은 게임이니 많은 관심과 플레이 부탁드립니다.

📢 CALLING ALL NONBINARY GAME DEVS! 📢 i'm helping run a steam sale event to showcase games made by nonbinary devs during the week of international nonbinary day! if you fit this description, fill out the form by may 18 👉 forms.gle/cx9AqFfPqzF9... please share & send to all your nb dev friends!!

별거 아니지만 엘리베이터 예절 안 지키는 사람들에게 극심한 혐오를 느낀다 자기가 들어갈 때는 천천히 걸어들어와 놓고 뒷사람들 문 안 잡아주는 놈. 혼자 타놓고 휴대폰 보느라 닫기 버튼 안 누르는 놈. 아무도 없는 층에 문이 열렸을 때 버튼 앞에서 휴대폰만 보고 있는 놈. 계단 한 층 내려가기 싫어서 엘리베이터 타고 내려가는 놈. 안쪽까지 안 들어가는 놈. 휠체어 막는 놈. 진짜 매번 신박한 개자식들이 나온다. '이런 것까지 알려줘야 해?' 싶은 예절들이 제일 먼저 사라지는 게 가장 크게 체감되는 곳이 엘리베이터인 것 같다

so now line has their ai agent show up above your keyboard to do stuff like help you "read the mood" & you can't even turn it off permanently, only for 30 days 😬

I've been trying to make more effort go outside more often mostly to combat depression(which is working), but everytime I wake up from a nap my body feels like it's going to break since my body is not fit for all these physical activities x_x

인디 게임 창작자 인터뷰 시리즈 첫 번째 글을 공개합니다. 경영학과 출신 비전공자가 지옥을 배경으로 한 고어 액션 로그라이트를 만들기까지. <HellPunk: Purgatorium> 개발 이야기, 지금 확인해보세요! www.game-ping.kr/indieside/ur...

할 줄 아는 언어가 많다고 하는 사람한테 편견이 있습니다. 자기가 하는 언어의 목록이 길어질수록 '이 인간이 진짜로 이 언어들을 전부 다 회화가 가능할 정도로 한다고...?' 같은 생각을 하게 되는데, 아니나 다를까 물어보면 몇 마디 말하고 아는 말이 끊깁니다. 그럼 그 언어들뿐만 아니라 그 사람의 기본적인 언어 능력마저도 의심이 되기 시작합니다. '언어를 한다'라는 개념조차 제대로 안 잡힌 인간이 언어라는 개념에 대한 이해가 있기는 한 건지.

한국의 웹시리즈 마인크래프트 콘텐츠를 볼 때 주로 콘텐츠 제작에 참여하는 인원이 젊은 사람들인 게 상당히 긍정적이라고 보는 편입니다. 콘텐츠 크리에이터 쪽에서는 젊은 사람들의 트렌드를 바로바로 따라잡을 수 있고, 반대로 제작인원 쪽은 어린 나이에 정당한 금전적/사회적 대우를 받으며 커리어를 쌓을 수 있는 기회가 제공되니 대단한 구조라고 생각합니다.

OH MY GOD, could anyone recommend me a new CAT tool that's free/relatively cheap? SmartCAT, the one I used to use, is basically dead(because they decided snooping at my files were nessecary but didn't manage to keep their server alive) and I desparately need a new CAT tool.

Throughout the past month my respect for my own father has dropped from 'a decent individual who tries his best as a parent' to 'animal that barely understands human discourse' Worst of all, the stress I get domestically ACTIVELY HINDERS MY OWN LANGUAGE SKILLS which impacts my carrer directly.

"퀴어 서사 게임잼" 게임잼에 참여하고 싶다면? 게임핑에서 투표하세요! www.game-ping.kr/gamejams/pre... 아직은 아이디어 단계고... 승인이 될지조차도 모르겠지만 일단 많은 관심 부탁드립니다!

한국 인디게임은... 진짜 딱 봐도 한국 인디게임에만 드러나는 특징들이 있는데, 그중에 하나가 비주얼적인 요소다. 똑같이 알만툴로 게임을 만들어도 꼭 스크립트를 써서 스탠딩 일러스트를 쓰고, 그런 면에서 시각적인 요소를 정말 중요시하는 듯. 문제는 이게 개발자들만 그런 게 아니라 플레이어들도 마찬가지라는 점이다. 시각적으로 화려한 게임들이 즐비하다 보니, 자연스레 조금이라도 시각적인 면에서 뒤처지는 건 잘 플레이를 안 하더라고요. 특히 유튜버들은 그런 게임이 조회수가 안 나오니 더더욱 안 하고,, 그러니 자연스레 노출도 덜 되고.

I guess I should be more bilingual just for the Korean authenticity (._. 영겁의 세월 동안 먼지를 먹어온 컴퓨터를 청소했더니 방이 추워진 느낌이다

게임잼 열어보고 싶었던 분들 주목! 게임핑에서 게임잼 개최 사전 예약이 시작됐어요. 아이디어 먼저 던져보고, 반응 확인해보세요 🎮 www.game-ping.kr/gamejams/pre... #게임잼

Thank you so much for sharing this! 🙏 You got it exactly right — we're building a space where Korean indie developers can publish their games AND host game jams, all in one place. We'd love to grow together with the global indie dev community too. Hope to see more of you around! 🎮

www.game-ping.kr/gamejams/pre... WE HAVE A RELIABLE KOREAN GAMEJAM WEBSITE/SYSTEM GOING They also have a bsky account(@playinitnet.bsky.social), I really hope this opens up a new era of new indie developers :D (and I also hope this extends to non-game jams as well!)

ugh for the lognest period of my time I've been trying to find a candle that smells like campfire... Who knew making your room smell like campfire is actually more difficult than straight up commiting arson (._.

one of the coolest jams on itch is happening again, and the theme is more important now than ever… 🔥 Fuck Capitalism Jam 2026 🔥 “We're living in shitty times, but there's room for optimism. Capitalism is collapsing; that much is obvious.” itch.io/jam/fuck-cap... let’s go! 👆

💥TDOV bundle thread💥 For $15 you get 15 trans books & an audiobook! This bundle has the good shit. Shit you haven’t seen bundled before. Lotta sci-fi, some fantasy, a bit of horror, plenty of romance. Bundle ends on March 31 so don’t put this off. Here’s why 🧵 itch.io/b/3594/tdov-...

Where's the diversity in builds? #ttrpg #dnd #rpg #meme #ttrpgcommunity #ttrpgsky

I predict a visual novel boom in Korea soon... More and more Korean indie developers are churning out excelent quality visual novels and it feels like we now have a stable pool of gamers who actually enjoy reading here :D

Damn. A recruiter told me I have a real chance to work for Minecraft again, but Mojang changed the position at the last minute. I haven't had work in months and that would have been job security. I'm a good art director, illustrator and 2D animator for games. Hire me please

reddit problem: our players are stupid reddit solution: make stupid games

I've been relying and appreciating lofi music more recently, but I'm always worried that any music I listen to might be AI generated. I would start liking an album only to realize that the creator 'releases' 1 hour long albums 3 times every week without any collaboration with other artists....

wanted to check out how hardware boost looked for A YEAR OF SPRINGS on switch 2 (crisp!) & this is how i find out my switch 2's screen colour is much cooler than my switch 1's! (hard to tell in the photo though...) though turning on hardware boost means you can't use touch screen to advance text 🎮

I've been trying to use CAT tools again but the softwares shoving AI translation functions on my face is really annoying me. Like yeah sure, I'll happily use a robot to shatter the trust with my client, rend my own professional standards, and potentially jeopardize my own career.

made my steam creator page cute!! 👀 check it out & follow my page 👇✨ 🎮 store.steampowered.com/curator/3334...

The offline English speaking institute/group is falling in shambles because the representative wanted more money, harrassed the staffs, and now everyone is quitting because of that These staffs are my friends leaving basically the only offline sanctuary I have, all because of a single capitalist pig

What's the most ominous shopkeeper encounter you've had in a game? #ttrpg #dnd #rpg #meme #ttrpgsky #ttrpgcommunity

bandcamp embeds work on bluesky now apparently so you should all check out the soundtrack for A YEAR OF SPRINGS by @sdhizumi.com (with a couple of tracks by me)! sdhizumi.bandcamp.com/album/a-year... check out the rest of the page too for some very good tunes 🎵

I made a tool that turns PCB designs into 3D-printable molds. you sandwich copper tape between the parts, sand the ridges, and you have a real working PCB. no etching, no chemicals. I am losing my mind castpixel.itch.io/pcb-forge

Thanks for coming to the Tomato Clinic stream a few days ago, and thank YOU @npckc.net for making the game. It was super important to a younger me :) #nanrait

UX in 2000: Make sure your manual is clear, informative, and to the point so that the users have no problem understanding your design! UX in 2020: ur users are all iliterate monkeys and you need to jingle some bells in their face each time you want them to anything

'AI learning' but it's me learning how AIs make sentences, because one of the characters in a game talks like an artificial inteligence, so now me, a human is mimicing an AI

Caught the flu... this sucks :(

Some nice VRC photoshooting I've gathered throughout some time :D

Saw a post that prompted me to write my own. If you're considering translating your games in Korean to earn profit, it's important to know what they like. Here are my honest (STATISTICALLY UNVERIFIED)opinions about the Korean gaming community nowadays, for publishers and game creators.

I had some time to think about this so here it is, A short comic about my 존댓말(honorifics) (1/2)

Tropical waters in 3 lines of code with no shader. I'm just making the UVs (just the U actually) a function of mesh point elevation. The higher the elevation, the more the mesh takes its texture from the right side of the image.

Which architectural style would your fantasy character prefer for their lair: Art Nouveau or Art Deco? #ttrpg #dnd #rpg #meme #ttrpgsky #ttrpgcommunity
