It's always worth considering, in multiplayer games specifically, whether your game needs a stinky shitty terrible poo-poo bad level made by an absolute moron. People love Operation Metro, Operation Locker, 2fort, Hightower, Dustbowl, Hanamura, Office, Shipment, Nuketown. I could go on.

Trying to find a game, need some help. It was an MMO style game that you would install from a Japanese website, it had low-poly graphics and looked like a 2000s low-fantasy WoW clone. It was entirely offline afaik, but you could still download and play it. It had this muted, dilapidated art style.

I've begun calling it Graf Zahl Doom whenever possible.

Peak really do be one of the best games of all time. Crazy.

another bump on this despite my better efforts since *waves hands around* present circumstances make it a LITTLE HARD for poverty bitches to obtain food atm 🥹

Yes, MD3 doesn't have vertex wobble. The best thing about it though is that it allows us to show BIBLICALLY ACCURATE QBJ3 WEAPONS

I've been playing Balatro again, and had a thought that with UI assets for Hollywood Animal that I've made, I can create a cool little mockup of Balatro Animal

el-p is one of the coldest to ever do it

I can't tell if the folks who conflate procedural tools with generative AI are uniquely stupid, or just acting in bad faith to score culture-war points.

dog update: they're loving the new place, biiig window

startmap preview for qbj3

Positively miserable 🫡

hand modeled a tree out of brushes (it was painful) but I think the level needs the visual contrast, maybe needs some shrubs too

Just realised that it's 5am and I've been mapping for 8hrs straight. Haven't had that feeling of being so in the zone for a good few months.

So at this stage I won't be completing this for QBJ3, just far too burned out, but hey this is what I was chipping away at in my spare time. A massive retro brutalist solar-hydro facility. It might look pretty far along but this was like 4 art-tested rooms of 40. I got a bit excited blocking it out.

Hey, I'm Steve, and I sketch.

spoilers but here's everything I made for QBJ3 (so far)

I really liked the character designs for this.

I'm proud to announce the start of the Quake Brutalist Jam 3, featuring a custom near total conversion mod www.slipseer.com/index.php?th...

all the little things you keep putting off until the end. blasted through these the last few nights. shipping this mod very soon

qbj3 tar enemies got me acting up gawdddd

Have a new Quake pack: High Seas! A cleaned up and hugely expanded version of the pirate themed textures I made for my old Remix Jam map I Shot The Albatross. strideh.itch.io/stridehs-hig...

I try to be a happy-go-lucky kinda guy these days but seeing people feverishly try to defend the use of AI in art and modding communities specifically because they're "here to stay" pushes my fuckin' buttons. Have a backbone.

the screenshots shouldn't surprise me but the audacity is nuts to me. supporting the genocidal settler colony because they're slipping you a crisp lincoln is fucking nuts

fantastic game. it's like $2 right now I would highly recommend if you enjoy dodging bullets.

No other hero shooter or moba has come up with a charcter design as cool as Wraith, a telekinetic mob boss who ALWAYS has her hands in her pockets, and uses telekinetic prosthetics to fire her guns.

Lmao I love how much this gets around given that the whole pack is a speedmap shitpost that took us like 3hrs to put together. someone had to really know ball to find this.

Quake done Quick using the Bonk Jam mod mechanics! Very happy to see the speedunning community eating the game up with the mod, it's all I could have asked for.

Oh my lord they finally added bookmarks. This is the most eventful thing to happen today thus far.

It's kinda nuts that the Hollow Knight folks had so many years to evaluate their game design and they still didn't remove the out-of-place Souls bloodstain mechanic. If I could delete one mechanic from existence it would be that. It's been plaguing indie games since 2011.

I'm making a game for like 10 ppl max. Unmarketable if we're being honest. Real freak shit.

Everyone's dunking because of the hat and not discussing the more pertinent problem that management scaled up with that ridiculous $100,000,000 investment and were surprised when their novelty game didn't really have staying power.

I think I've said it before, but I do hope that this trend of people dissecting a game's code simply because it's popular / they don't like the dev dies out. Like, Balatro defining all of it's Jokers in a single file, or the infamous Undertale dialog switch statement.

non-binary Northernlion be like: "well i could go for some sushi or pizza"

It's a dark time for the gaming industry when John fucking Romero can't get an FPS funded.

Developing a shmup with furry characters is crazy, because you can't just call the Hyper mechanic "Hyper" without raising eyebrows

he don't never run out of the 'go back in time potion'
