Trusting your QA to LLMs is a lot like leaving your baby with a pigeon.

Drinking with a game director at a launch party. He said something through all the free wine that still sticks with me. "Making a game is like landing a plane while you are building it, and the plane is on fire."

WAIT OMG someone shared this screenshot from the most recent Bloodlines 2 trailer with me and... oh my gosh??? I WROTE THAT MENU BOARD. I was so frightened nothing I wrote would ship, but I at least can sleep well at night knowing my silly coffee menu shipped. 😭

Hello fellow gun lovers! We've received a bit of press notice, including an interview with some of the devs! Check it out 😄 somanygames.co.uk/articles/sco...

Watched wrestling for the first time this weekend. I finally get it.

Yo! @polyarmorygame.bsky.social patch 1.03 is out with a bunch of fixes and polish, no better time to give it a go!

The workers at ZA/UM Studio have unionized. First recognised games union in the UK, too. May many others follow. www.gameworkers.co.uk/workers-at-z...

Jane Goodall, ethologist and conservationist, has died. She was 91

There's something very satisfying to seeing someone stream your game from start to end and they vibe with the concept. Watching these streams confirms to me that the cactus fucking and poop minigames were in fact integral to the vision of @polyarmorygame.bsky.social www.twitch.tv/videos/25798...

And here's what's gonna make the difference: your enemies aren't in this seminar right now.

This is a work of art! Made by a very dedicated group of amazing people. I couldn't recommend this game enough! 37 out of 5 stars

The Psychgeist of Pop Culture: The Elder Scrolls is here! My very first article in an academic publication! I wrote about one of my favorite RPG quests ever, The Mind of Madness, and how it's an application of psychodrama. Thank you so much @drkowert.bsky.social @wanderingshrink.bsky.social

Somewhat behind schedule, but containing some wonderfully voice weapons and made by a team that surely does love their guns... Or perhaps their guns love them? Who knows! Find out, in Polyarmoury: High Calibre Love!

Fun fact: @polyarmorygame.bsky.social was supposed to be made for last year's #7DFPS game jam. It took us around 8 months to finish it. (We might have overscoped somewhat...) oxyoxspring.itch.io/polyarmory

So uh... we released a new game. It's free. It's stupid. It's about smooching guns.

This truly is the worst year of my life.

@oxyoxspring.bsky.social has anyone pointed this out to you yet because Fuckin Lol

Say what you will about horrific sudden changes in life, but they do make for great game design ideas.

This one was made for #PrideMonth in celebration of can-sexyality XD Vending Machine of Love get's me into playing #OnlyCans and I dont have any regrets. The game is fun :3 @oxyoxspring.bsky.social did a good job. #thestupendiumfanart #digitalart #art

We are incredibly disappointed by the Labour government's decision to seek advice from such a narrow segment of our industry. You can find our open letter here: www.gameworkers.co.uk/open-letter-...

📢 Excited to announce our new game!! 📢 Sucker for Love: Crush Landing ✨ ☄️ Crashing directly into your living room sometime in the future 💫 wishlist now! store.steampowered.com/app/3848900/... #indiedev #indiegame #announcement #trailer #gamemaker #indiehorror

We should probably be clear eyed about the fact that Microsoft purchased a huge roster of some of the world's best game development studios only to turn around and use them all as kindling for its ill-begotten AI boondoggle

I love how “OnlyCans” by The Stupendium has become the unofficial theme song for Date Everything on TikTok 🤭

The deepest circle of hell is reserved for people who play music at maximum volume on public transport.

THAT'S more LIKE IT

This is an image maga is posting to stoke fear of Mamdani. A list of things that sound awesome

The games business is about games. If you’re in the games business, and somehow (as often happens) your company somehow is now focused on something else (AI, XR, “IP,” acquisitions, etc.) you’re in for a period of struggle. Everyone will wonder what’s wrong. But you know. It’s about games. Gameplay.

Done! Hope this one here make you all proud of being can-sexuals! Don't forget to hydrate, being a can-sexual or not UwU @thestupendium.bsky.social #fanart #digitalart #VMoL #onlycans #pride

Of course @oxyoxspring.bsky.social has his own can. It taste like a mix of fruits and cool sounds. #onlycans #fanart

Hope you folks don't mind having breakfast in the evening... Unlikely Cyphers: Episode 2 premieres tomorrow night! 🧡🥣 youtu.be/m32FRonFToE

-Hive Head- Old monster concept I've had for years. A false face and improvised body are formed beneath the hive. A crude imitation of the creatures eaten by the gestalt swarm.

Ooo @deathsprint66.bsky.social got nominated for a Develop Award. Nice!

okay okay but you know what ELSE launched today store.steampowered.com/app/2116510/...

Heading home after a long day of filming with @thestupendium.bsky.social I'm knackered, but it was bloomin good fun.

Jen has been powering through the extensive voice acting we've got for @polyarmorygame.bsky.social and it's so good to hear it starting to trigger in game. @rolopogo.bsky.social did a amazing job of building a robust system to tag yarn files up to play the lines too. It's been so useful!

Edited up over 650 dialogue lines so far for Polyarmory, feels good.

No-one asked for it, but BRAINBUSTERS made it anyway. Get your tongues on the new PSYCHOHEADS flavour... SUPER SOUR ACID APPLE! (Actual flavour may vary, speak to your clone-doctor before ingesting. BRAINBUSTERS are not liable for any health issues that may occur) #DEATHSPRINT66
