With news of more games media layoffs, this seems like a good time to share my Indie Games Media starter kit — it’s more important than ever that readers directly support their favourite publications and writers.

Capitalism has tainted the perceived value of the natural world and of our own culture and communities. One of my favorite quotes is "The most affluent of countries, operates on a depletion economy which leaves destruction in its wake. Your people are driven by a terrible sense of deficiency."

IK is really cool

AI is the “asbestos of the internet”

Do you guys ever think about how the billionaire elite pedophiles are basically the celestial dragons from One Piece? They're protected at all costs, do all kinds of crazy immoral stuff, and interfering with them results in your country getting couped or you getting killed by the CIA/US military.

Love to see all consumer electronic parts hoovered up by a pretend industry that makes no products and no money, and gives society only economic and ecological ruin in return. Tech companies would love to take this chance to force us all into subscription-based cloud computing. The bubble must pop

Godot Smoke VFX is now available btw. You can customize the shading, density, colors, edge softness and more to have it fit your projects! Link: binbun3d.itch.io/smoke-vfx #godot #godotengine #vfx #gamedev #indiedev #gameart #animation

I propose an international law that once you become personally responsible for the murder of 1,000 people, be it via direct violence or policy, you are declared a dragon and adventurers can form parties to quest against you.

We need worker cooperatives and democratic socialism to protect democracy and defeat fascism permanently otherwise inequality will always creep back and threaten democracy once it becomes a threat to power. Democracy can and should be extended to the economic sector to distribute economic power.

This article about unions and cooperatives joining forces to steadily improve the standard conditions for workers across an industry is very interesting. This seems very relevant to the video game industry because indie coops could collaborate with local unions. www.iftf.org/insights/tra...

Quick preview of the modular sci-fi kit which will release on Sunday, for free. It's the first time I've included a texture (for the floor) in my 3D #gameassets and it really makes a difference, it'll be integrated in the colormap - so it's still all 1 material/texture! 🎉

The Superbowl ring doorbell ad immediately made me feel like this

I'm a bit late with our announcement video seeing the page went live a week ago but: youtu.be/qaeNsLBH9ks

Godot is a punch machine #godotengine #gamedev

Mugen but Godot sounds incredible!

Brandon Sanderson the author of The Stormlight Archives series made a great talk that gets to the core of the issue with AI art. The human experience of the artist is what puts humanity in the art, not it's commercial value or usefulness or appeal to an audience. youtu.be/mb3uK-_QkOo?...

My favorite quote of the week is "If the lens through which you can view life is value in currency, that which is priceless becomes worthless" I love that some leftists in finance and economy like @moneyontheleft.bsky.social fight against this idea.

I created a tiny Godot tool for instancing and animating MultiMeshinstances along a Path3D. Megan and I really love playing Abzu and Sword of the Sea, so I wanted to take a stab at creating something that could mimic the look of all those fishies swimming around!

Made a video on VFX in Godot 🔥✨ youtu.be/htRjt505sPg

These cuties are now available in the Platformer Kit and come with animations! They're free to use in any of your projects, who's the first to implement them? 👀 #gamedev kenney.nl/assets/platf...

After giving it a spin in VR, I can confirm: baguette math for two-handed grabs works on everything. p🐧🥖🔫 (There will be no guns in the game, but it makes for a great weird edge case test) #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

Unfortunately saw an artist take my game assets and create an almost 1:1 copy again. Please don't do this, instead; • Expand on my assets • Improve my assets • Create a package that connects to my assets It benefits everyone, and I get to promote your new stuff!

It's pretty tough thinking of how things could get better in the world right now but I'm going to focus on game development and my personal health more. Maybe I'll get to a point where I can have a larger impact through doing that. Just scrolling and arguing with people doesn't do anything.

Chavez in 2009, while being labelled as paranoid, outlines exactly what is happening today.

my next favorite thing useless elected officials say now is if he just asked for congressional approval then it would he completely fine to overthrow other countries and steal resources

If we made using stocks as collateral on loans count as capital gains, increased capital gains taxes, and increased inheritance taxes for billionaires then we could subsidize cooperatives to fight wealth inequality. We might even be able to nationalize utilities and healthcare to guarantee them.

URGENT: Melisa is a MD resident who was working full-time in Hampstead and living in Westminster. At a routine immigration check-in, Melisa was detained on 12/15/25. In order to pay for an immigration attorney, Melisa needs funds ASAP: gofund.me/e5d3e5a2b

Assuming a second exodus is about the commence with X rolling out their mute-block, here is a starter pack for people interested in pixel art. 🎨

We don't need to wait for politicians to save us. Collectively we have quite a bit of power. We can protect what power we have by creating cooperatives and unions and demanding policies that make creating and running them easier. Cooperatives and unions help spread wealth in an economy.

New vid on how to install and use Godot 1.0! Thanks to @akien.bsky.social for making it possible to use the first version of the #GodotEngine again, and to my girlfriend for making the video's thumbnail :) youtu.be/HsVLwCKGoWs?... #Godot #gamedev #indiedev

If you're looking for a great on rails shooter, I highly recommend picking up Ex-Zodiac!

We really need Italian style agriculture cooperatives for small rural American farms. The only way regular people can beat big business is by working together. We need a more cooperative economy if we want a healthy economy. Politicians won't save us. youtu.be/t1_MI_5FHoc?...

I can't overstate how much I love this video. Doomerism is the enemy of progress. Documenting how things actually improved is crucial if you want to keep making incremental progress. @ohtheurbanity.bsky.social youtu.be/3eDqC87zpXU?...

If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...

Tired: "Don't make your dream game, it's too big!" Wired: "Have faith in yourself that you have more than one great idea in your head, have a bunch of smaller dreams and make those instead!"

This is a great primer video going over what a cooperative economy could look like.

Too many people think the issue is "ai look bad" not the stolen data sets not the workers rights not the climate change and the fact that people CANNOT AFFORD TO TURN ON THEIR HEAT because they're subsidizing data centers, let alone the misinformation and fascism

HUZZAH!

Almost time for the best game awards event!

I love Venezuelan Godot

Standing with members of @sbworkersunited.org in Chicago today, demanding fair pay and dignity on the job. This holiday season, choose solidarity. Don’t cross the picket line.

IN JUST OVER AN HOUR Witness the first ever "Avvies": the awards show that gives out the awards these companies truly deserve - and celebrates the workers that make this industry and artform great. twitch.tv/UVW_CWA

Total automation remains a dangerous fantasy. "Its AI weapons detection system detected a student holding a clarinet in a similar manner as someone might hold a rifle. It 'triggered the Code Red to activate,' he school’s principal told families in an automated message."

With the new Avatar movie coming out soon, I wanted to share my favorite video about the missed opportunities of the Avatar series from an indigenous perspective. It's very important for allies of minority groups to include them whenever possible in media about them. youtu.be/lMwKQmrNsKg?...

It's BONKERS that there isn't a worker owned digital content social media platform, because digital content creators are who you'd hire to build it!!!!!!!!!!!

Very excited for slay the spire 2! youtu.be/6NgLqPWqDss?...

I can't provide further details due to NDAs, but have just been given the green light to confirm Godot runs on Steam Frame. There will be a PR soon to address controller support, hopefully in time for 4.6, but in the mean time Frame works with the touch profile.

@fdsignifier.bsky.social made one of the best videos describing the young white male's attraction to the far right. It's long but it's worth it. youtu.be/6ve-Z9puzjU?...
