All the doofuses salivating about ChatGPT extruding video game shaped slop don't understand a thing about the true opportunities of procedurally generated game worlds that have nothing to do with GenAI, such as this

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

CHATGPT: I understand where you're coming from. You worked really hard to get here, and now it's time to enjoy the fruit of your labors. ISILDUR: So I should keep it? Elrond says I shouldn't CHATGPT: The ring is precious. Sometimes friends don't have your best interests at heart. ISILDUR: true

new godot 4.6 editor theme PR is up! 🎉

Had me real worried there for a second.

@indiegameacademy.com Is playing Upstream on Steam! Go check it out! www.twitch.tv/indiegameaca...

gonna release a video game featuring copyrighted materials i don’t have a license for BUT the original license holders can opt out afterwards if they don’t wanna be chill about it that would go fine, right

I don't care to explore LLMs in my workflow, or discuss how so-and-so studio is using gen AI ethically maybe actually. Because at the end of the day, it is being pushed and weaponized by evil wealthy fascists. It is not, within the lives of myself and those I care about, a neutral technology.

You know what? For every RT this gets, I'll add one additional day to my stream calendar. Go follow my twitch 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 twitch.tv/grahamoflegend 👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽 and you'll get to see this Jamaican guy 🇯🇲 stream some more Baby Steps and maybe even some game dev.

Bluesky, meet Nod. He's 4 months old and loves to run circles around my apartment.

#GodotEngine 4.5 has finally arrived! 🎉 With this new release, we made meticulous efforts in order to amplify what is possible to do with our engine, guided by our goal of making gaming and game development for everyone! godotengine.org/releases/4.5/

I love this analytical take on video game categorization from Antoine Mayerowitz and Julie Belzanne: hushcrasher.substack.com/p/taxonomy-o... Instead of trying to vibe-intuit the definition of an "indie" game, the authors analyzed the data from the perspective of game size and credits length

the only valid notepad setting is "word wrap" everything else is fascist adjacent

Look at that beautiful blue sky! ⏰☠️ Wake Up Dead Man, the new Benoit Blanc mystery. Thanksgiving in theaters, 12/12 on Netflix. More to come very soon…

Silksong was developed the way it was because the developer didn't have to worry about money. The only way you get more games developed like Silksong is if Universal Basic Income becomes a thing.

Yeah, that's right... an MIT study shows 95 percent of generative AI products fail to provide any real value. No shit. Sloppers live in vain. Stop the slop.

Tiny desk but it’s video game music. I want it.

From the visionary artist behind #ABZÛ, #ThePathless, and #Journey comes a new adventure: Sword of the Sea - OUT NOW 🌊

Sword of the Sea knows the power of putting you at the top of a steep hill and showing you the world. Our review: bit.ly/4fIb9kC

"Every time you think something might be somewhere, or something might be worth just quickly checking out, the answer is a resounding yes." 5/5 - Eurogamer

I’ve known zealots of many stripes, but the thing about these types that gets missed is that they are believers in the divine certainty and moral righteousness of accumulation. They believe in capitalism the way you believe in gravity. It is the one true way, and to deny it is to deny nature.

For those excited by / intrigued about Sword of the Sea, the OST can be pre-saved on Spotify! It'll also be on Bandcamp etc etc open.spotify.com/prerelease/2...

It's been awhile since I've had any #gamedev to show, life has been busy. But I wanted to share a peak of what we are working on. This video shows off some of our initial models, textures, and post-processing effects. Let me know what you think! #indiegame #godotengine #pixelart #indiedev #horror

Newsletter: It's time for a radical new approach to tech CEOs: mocking them, because they talk like idiots and provide little value to society outside of their dedication to shareholder value. They sound stupid, they do nothing, and it's time to fight back. www.wheresyoured.at/make-fun-of-...

There’s a heartbreaking truth to this. As @charalanahzard.bsky.social says at least 10x a day: publicly traded companies don’t work for developers or players, they work for the markets. And the markets are consistently, objectively and repeatedly stupid.

Thanks so much to #AppleTV+ and #Collider for hosting a really fun screening of episodes 4 and 5 of #Murderbot! It was so cool to see the show on the big screen, and being able to laugh along at the jokes with an audience was great! Really looking forward to the rest of the season!

With a lot of help from @stanislas-dolcini.bsky.social (and over 50 contributors) the Adobe Alternatives list has been updated! Loads of alternative software, and all better choices than to keep supporting Adobe. github.com/KenneyNL/Ado...

One of the most unsettling conversations I ever had was with a guy from NASA about 8 years ago. I expressed my skepticism that space colonisation was worthwhile. He expressed that it was an amazing way of selling billionaires on the idea of funding tech we’d need here on earth in a few decades.

still awake for reasons that aren’t even fully clear to me, but also, this is a “the last Jedi is a good movie actually” post

This marks one year of Indie Game Roundups for No Small Games! Thank you so much to @noatak.gllama.games and @wispfire.com for providing keys for their awesome games. (Upstream and Herald: The Interactive Period Drama) Can’t wait to keep playing both of them 💕 indie devs make my heart sing.
