3D World is better than both Galaxy 1 and 2, and it actually is not close.

They should invent a new games industry with more jobs and no layoffs.

there are loads of reasons why the death of physical is bad news, but I think there are downstream effects that the industry is already suffering from today - that are only going to get worse youtu.be/jGtv_lyaNww

It’s been five years since Alex Jones lost InfoWars to the Sandy Hook families. As the verdict came down, he asked: “Do these people actually believe they’re getting any money?” He hasn't paid them a penny. Well, The Onion is going pay them anyway. The new InfoWars begins July 2nd at 8 p.m. ET.

Happy 30th birthday to Quake 🥳🍻❤️

for anyone concerned about AI code in TrenchBroom, the AI agents file was added in March 2026 (github.com/TrenchBroom/...) so the last no-AI version was likely v2025.4 (github.com/TrenchBroom/...)

did a blog post of my Thoughts on the Actual State of Unreal in 2026, how it has come to this, etc etc. i've been an unreal user since 2008, and this is the worst the vibes have ever been. is there hope? perhaps www.joewintergreen.com/absolute-sta...

“Please have 2+ years of experience with an engine we announced on Friday” really sums up the state of the games industry.

Marrow and Death Wish were both fantastic, high-quality mods for Blood, would highly recommend playing through both. They hang with the best FPS stuff coming out at the moment. Was def worth the price of Refreshed Supply to play on console too, Lightly Broiled diff was plenty hard with a controller.

speed level design is so 2015, slow-cooked level design--incremental, iterative, left to simmer--is where it's at.

Map 4, "Treated Sewage" in Marrow for Blood is a great sewer level, loving this expansion. Much darker tone and more surreal than the 90s stuff.

After messing with XMapEdit and playing a lot of Blood on PS5 this week, I think I'm gonna focus my long-term mapping efforts there for a bit; I am feeling more inspired and less overwhelmed by it. Still get the itch to make something more slapdash in Doom, Quake, or something simpler too though.

He lives...again! Blood: Refreshed Supply along with the Deathwish expansion are available now on Nintendo Switch 2! 🩸 www.nintendo.com/us/store/pro...

🚨 new noclip_2 Report 🚨 In an industry full of publisher horror stories, DERELIKT's seems especially cruel. But will this love letter to classic PC and PS1 first person shooters eventually make it to the finish line? Report by @jeremybjayne.bsky.social WATCH HERE: youtu.be/8auTT5c23Ts

just discovered XMapEdit for Blood has an adjustable split screen mode, really helps my TrenchBroom-pilled brain

Really loved this review! As a writer I am very happy the real-life development horrors behind the game's story are getting recognized here! This game has many of our own souls residing within.

The Draw Steel quick start adventure is super cool and very easy to run via the Codex VTT, I'm a huge fan of this app and system already. Feel like it actually makes DMing online fun again.

hah, Mouse P.I. For Hire has literal "monster closets": doors with skulls on them to signify where the enemies will come from in an encounter but that don't actually lead anywhere, it's a cool idea.

Someone modded their VTuber character into Baby Steps! There's a nexusmods link in there in case anyone else wants to figure out how to do the same thing with other models <3 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jsou...

Quake is 30 years old this year but also so is Duke3d!

Been coming back to the Build engine games again this week, Death Wish got me thinking about it. So I guess I'm giving Mapster32 another try. Really like what I've played of Wizordum and the editor for that game so far as well.

Unsurprisingly, Death Wish 2.0 is spectacular. I love most of the changes in this version. What I've always loved with DW is that it perfectly understood the assignment: it gives you a metric shitton of TNT with hordes of enemies to blow to smithereens.

Our (@mahliann.bsky.social, @marcuscarter.com, and I) book GAME STUDIES: A CRITICAL INTRODUCTION TO THE FIELD is officially OUT everywhere in the world except the US for some reason. So here is an actual thread about why we wrote it and what we were trying to achieve with it.

Attempted to make a climbing wall in Quake lol. The cheese ramp returns.

Probably a good time to repost a bunch of games that reject photorealism in favor of a more hand-crafted, stylized and tonal immersion. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Og6_...
