We out here! #gdc

I'm going to GDC this week! It's my first time going to the conference! My departing flight is out of gate E3, pfffffffffffffff

this is what deadlock gameplay sounds like to me

Vyper's vibes #Deadlock

Finally.

Kansas invalidated a trans woman's license even though she never changed her gender marker. It's not about the gender marker. It's about targeting trans people and making their lives unlivable.

Melee Attacks in PVP Must Be Fast! There is a common misconception in PVP game design that melee attacks should be slow and reactable in order to make it fair for your opponents to play around them. The problem with this is that it fundamentally breaks the core game dynamic, resulting in a game…

A joke about excessive interruptions and handholding isn't funny when it's about a game that already has excessive interruptions and handholding.

I finally remade my old infographic on the 3 filters of depth! Learn more about depth here: gamedesignskills.com/game-design/...

Call your house rep and tell them to support HB 2540 which will increase the amount disabled people can save from $2k to $10k and remove the marriage penalty where you lose your only source of income if you get married regardless of how little they make. Switchboard: (202) 224-3121

GIRLS FUCKING ROCK MOREOVER, ICE MUST BE DESTROYED

We are living through one of the biggest crackdowns on free speech in academia in history. Liberals are complicit as they castigated anti-genocide protestors and their publications fearmongered about things like wokeness and trigger warnings while the right planed McCarthyism 2.0.

posting some of the fanart brainworms i've been having here as well! #deadlock #Moonshine

Anyways I made this but got busy at work.

Also, every celebrity man accused of sexual violence has a little pseudo-journalist constructing DARVO narratives for them on social media now.

At the same time the Epstein Files are reinforcing how protected sexual abusers really are, Neil Gaiman is using the nightmarish sexual violence allegations against him to market his next book. His DARVO defense is the first selling point. Rape culture is everywhere and unavoidable.

i found a stupid image i made and posted on twitter like five years ago so you can have it again

I ported Super Monkey Ball to a website. You can access it in the replies. (or just type what you see in the video, I'm not your boss.)

Damn am I glad they didn't go with the original title, "Dark Race"

I made some graphics explaining the basics of charge partitioning and how the system works in Under Night in particular. I might do a followup for 3rd Strike, since understanding the charge reset timer is a big deal there.

No mechanic is "bad". Either it works for a particular game or it doesn't. All mechanics are just tools to deliver different experiences. An ideal world is not one without a particular mechanic, an ideal world is full of fun games that find a place for each mechanic, and tunes them appropriately.

#gamesdev The "Ideas Guy"

heartbreaking: the worst person you know just came out

I made a small demo of a concept I had for helping people learn to do special moves in fighting games, and now it's available to play: celialicious.itch.io/wave-motion-...

I think Collectathons were the incremental games of their time, but failed to reach the same market success. "People like collecting things, so let's give them a lot of things to collect!" Incremental games more accurately identified the hedonic treadmill. Gains on gains.

I just heard someone on the AGDQ say, "he fitmogged me" We need to start making fun of people who say incel words in public.

i knew it

I took an awesome picture of my boobs today. I love my boobs

hard to please

@thornhawthorne.com Hey, I'm curious about the fat transfer top surgery you mentioned. Could you give me more details? My DMs are open.

Here's another one I like. This one's from Sam Morril:

meanwhile.... medicine has taken INSANE leaps and bounds in the last 2 years. we're out here curing HIV and leukemia and creating 100% efficacy vaccines against all sorts of cancers, and now this?? between this and renewable energy outstripping fossil fuels in efficiency, the future is bright

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)

How I'm playing Hang-On (Arcade, 1985)

OUR REVIEW IS FINALLY OUT GO WATCH IT

I made a compilation of these to involuntarily raise the Insight level of whoever gazes upon it

Babe, you are rapidly becoming my 13th greason why

I liked the panels explaining things like how hit boxes work & techniques used by game devs, they did a good job at showing the craftsmanship. I have no idea how attractive this is to younger audiences, but it's really cool to see an official exhibit explaining these.

Merry Christmas to all of you, wherever you are, your support this year has been my greatest gift! 🎁✨ I hope you all can be there for those who bring you comfort and security, with lots of food! 🎄✨

For further context twitter added a button that allows users to generate ai images using existing art posts from artists. It removes glaze and it basically reskins the artwork by using the existing work as a base. Twitter is no longer a safe space for art

Rouge the bat

Why did you transition? Wrong answers only. Smaller hitboxes and higher DPS.
