I know we're all sick to death of AI, but let me do one more complaint (just one, I promise... for today) This is really scummy of Adobe. "Use AI to generate Alt text!" Ok, that's kind of useful. "But it'll cost you". Right. Of course. (I know my Adobe tax covers it, but that ain't the point)

I just came across these MegaDrive cartridge dioramas (neat!) and saw this Street Fighter one... which made me remember this awful Snes controller one I had as a kid. Quality control didn't exist back then, ya see (I still liked it)

Interesting⦠it feels like there have been a lot of British voices in RPGs recently. I just assumed it was a trend or a stereotype for medieval themed games to use Brits now?

Random whinge about Twitter/X... There was so much good stuff on there, still indexed by search engines, which now all lead to dead ends as everyone blitzed their accounts. I know it's the least of his crimes, but regardless, thanks Elon š”

"You MUST buy Earth Must Die, out today on Steam!" Is the kind of thing VValak would *probably* say. It was an absolute blast working with
@danthat.bsky.social
and the SizeFive Games team on EMD, so I did this quick VValak sketch to celebrate. (The style is sooo quick to draw, it's really pleasing!)

One other Earth Must Die thing from the archives - because I love seeing other people's WIP stuff, and I think it's good to expose what a mess games are for the longest time: Here's what EMD looked like when
@mikerose.bsky.social
agreed to give me money, and how it looks now. Never give up.

Discussing localisation and it made me think of this example in Panzer Dragoon Saga. The translation is fantastic, apart from this meme (from a time before memes had a name) - which really threw me out of the world, which is a huge shame. But hey, whacky South Park humour! Oooooh!

This is a really good article - really demonstrates AI as a platform where no user can have a creative voice, because that voice can only ever be the voice of the machine or the voice of what came before it.

Don't put off making what you want to make because you're "not ready yet" Not knowing how to do something and then doing it anyway is how we learn It's how we surprise ourselves. It's how we discover what no-one would have encountered by doing it "the right way"

Seeing these two side-by-side on Steam makes me appreciate the original character design more. The new one is so... generic. I guess that's a problem with aiming for realism: real life is boring!

I haven't had to do this trick in a while, but if someone sends images within a Word file (shudder) you can chuck it into a file extractor like it's a zip and get the source files. It's a neat trick that I don't think everyone knows :)

In terms of UI I can often hear a variation of āitās more immersive, because it has less UIā But was Persona 5 audience any less immersed because of its wild interface? Was there a lack of immersion with Baldurās Gate 3?

A game about an emotional journey delivered through sound and light. I did the key art and logo on this one and it was fascinating to try and capture what's in the game... it's not your typical game - and I love that! We need more of this:
