Fable looks so good. It's the first time I'm hyped about a AAA game in quite a long time, I hope they manage to release it before the GTA 6 tidal wave

people accuse me of being an xbox hater but the truth couldn't be different, I'm just sad to see MS often messing stuff up. The developer direct yesterday was great and it's kind of content people want to see, ACTUAL GAMEPLAY FOOTAGE AND DETAILS ABOUT GAMES!

This USA descent to barbarism is so hard to watch, be this a warning for all the countries in Europe, and I'm especially thinking about the UK: this is what happens when you give your country to fascists. No one could have imagined anything like this, so it could happen here too.

After procrastinating for months thanks to my gf pushing me to do it I finally painted this wall at my place, next: alcove lights, wiring speakers, maybe ceiling projector...

An absolute legend, I still enjoy watching and rewatching Computer Chronicles on youtube, anyone got a favourite episode? I recently watched one on windows 3.0 that mentioned the legal battle between MS and Apple over it

Good grief...

Votoms is better than Gundam

Sandy Petersen is a dick and somehow even after all his accomplishments as game designer he's still incredibly uncool

Immediately distrust anyone that talks like that, they're going to sink your project

Half Life (1998) is now as old as the first ever arcade game, Computer Space (1971) was when Half Life was released.

RIP @burgerbecky.bsky.social Rebecca Heineman and thanks for all the wonderful games 😢

With the passing of Rebecca Heineman today, I wanted to share some images from her last, now forever unfinished project. She was working on amazing stuff right up until the end. It was Dragon Wars remastered. Jennell Jaquays was art directing.

I totally read this as Magic The Gathering

This is a gut punch, I had no idea Rebecca was even ill... Becky is a legendary developer and a pillar for anyone in the retrogaming sphere

giving the work of a hundred people a 2 stars rating because AI voices is nuts, I'm glad review scores are as uninfluential as the press nowadays if this is how things go

the only two feelings in game development

Layoffs at Launch: that's game dev.

how can your work on a sequel to a cult classic immersive sim/rpg and decide that this is ok😭😭😭 (context: you can't open some doors in Bloodlines 2 if there are enemies nearby, you have to kill everyone)

I waited for 6 years for a copy of this calendar to show up on ebay, the other day I finally received an email alert, I was in the middle of a meeting, I could barely contain my excitement and immediately bid on the auction.

I'll get some ZX Spectrum #ScanlineSunday action in with a gorgeous piece of demoscene artwork from Elysium State, a 2022 prod. 📺: Philips 14", RGB SCART, Spectrum +2.

Every photo I take is done practically with very little digital work, using household items to create special effects like cotton wool for fire & foil for water. Each set is meticulously set up for just the one scene then dismantled so I can set up another scene. Thanks for helping me keep going.

This all under the worst right-wing government, while the UK, with Labour on, is still managing to be more oppressive and made even waving a flag illegal

This is really sad, Carpe Fulgur did a lot of good helping small Japanese developers find success in the West with their fantastic work, I still smile thinking about Recettear.

The team had the pleasure of chatting with @maezza.bsky.social yesterday! She generously shared her insights on community management, engagement, and building positive spaces in games. Huge thanks to Maezza for her time and expertise!🙌

It's going to be bad

The Infiltrator gets an updated look! We've polished up the player model to be on par with the other NPCs. The idea is to make the other skins available for selection in the full release (with additional looks available later). #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #stealth

Bitmap Bureau doing an incredible looking Terminator game AND He-Man?! Looks gorgeous, and I loved the clear nods to Golden Axe in it

Congratulations to Digital Foundry in going 𝒃𝒆𝒔𝒑𝒐𝒌𝒆 👏👏👏

You: wants sleek, modern UIs Me: Wants a big honkin' dragon sitting on the menu for no particular reason.

I'm conflicted about this, people are acting like the whole thing is AI generated but it took the work of hundreds of people, they re-scored it with an orchestra, they re-did all the shots on a sphere-mapped environment. it's a PR mistake to hide a lot of human work behind the AI buzzword

There’s a new plaque on the wall of a small building in Ashby de la Zouch …. Legendary

Sometimes big companies slip up and their soulless, ghoulish nature comes into full display, this is one of those times. Only a soulless corporate ghoul would re-brand a games company to look like this

Holding a flashlight in first person horror games: which one feels like the right one for you? left or right?

spotted at Sainsbury's. Haven't seen stuff like this since the dot-com bubble 25 years ago, it's when even marketing for stuff like random-shit-wine tries to get into the AI bandwagon that you know you have a bubble about to burst.

Latest pickups for my CRPGs library: a copy of Rogue, Temple of Apshai Trilogy and Deathlord, this last one seems to be a severely underrated game for the Apple II, and I'm in love with that cover art

I'm in Brighton and the vibe is

Programming has never been easier to learn and accessible and yet the length people go to avoid learning some basic skills is astounding

I'll be at Develop with some of my team! Hoping to see many known faces but also at least as many new ones!

My shitposting predates social media by decades. :)

Lmao Minecraft's original code is in java and looks like shit, at least gatekeep properly

apple UI designer at WWDC25: "the motion of liquid is something we all have an intuitive feel for" me, inexplicably starting a mini tsunami just by lifting a glass of water up: "uuh, sure"

controversial opinion: that's actually good & you should stop idolizing the same few figures in the industry

I have many friends at both Hangar 13 and Stormind, and I've been waiting years for them to unveil this, this is so cool. So many faces and places I know in this video. Now I'm feeling homesick more than ever... youtu.be/amarmiKaV2w

"Others familiar with the project told me that EA executives were frustrated that the game had not yet left the pre-production phase after nearly four years in development". This is the real issue, I've seen this all over past 2020, letting a project run in pre-production for 4 years is not normal

ok I have a funny story about how stuff like this can happen and go unnoticed until release and why you should NEVER use art you don't own even as placeholder. During the development of Gears of War 4 someone added several Bob Ross' paintings as textures in the game, no one noticed for months... 1/3

Saw this during the Revision 2025 live stream and I couldn't believe it

Subtly nerdy home decorations, if you get these, we should be friends.

please tell me that the Skibidi Toilet movie is not real
