this can still be on your GOTY list if you loosen your concept of calendar

So, if a Normal Map can make something flat imply the direction of the light - maybe our game could have lighting from all directions! (4/7)

Our upcoming game The Hearth and Harbour is fully 2D, but with some neat tricks we’ve made it look 3D. Ethan, our environment artist, did this with a special type of texture called a Normal Map. (Thread! 1/7)

⚔️ #TeaseYaGame ⚔️ What if you had a magic sword that helped you fly and explore a mysterious labyrinthine world? Also it’s a retro-fantasy action RPG with brutal combat so the sword can also help there

After hearing about it on Side Story, Anthology of the Killer has become one of my favourite games I played this year. Just absurdly good.

Having a really shitty time in work atm and my two Polish coworkers just came into my office and went "LGBTQ?" I went huh? And they replied "Lets Get Burgers Today Queen" so maybe not everything is bad

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct. That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9nO...
