I do not condone a foreign government using something I worked on as propaganda for their unsanctioned war. It's a disgrace.

Jesus. F*cking. Christ.
GDC is coming up, which means it’s almost time for #WhatAGameDevLooksLike! Every year this lights up my socials and it’s such a lovely and celebratory time full of belonging and joy. And every year I keep getting reminded of how much we need it as things in the industry get worse lol
The 10 miles is the easy part
The 24 tacos should be doable
The 24 beers would destroy me
Albo was asked to apply one word to various prominent people (Trump, Barnaby, Pauline etc). Grace Tame he labelled "difficult". Unconscious misogyny, which says quite a lot more than he apparently intended.
I always wanted to play it, I'm just consistently time poor and am very aware this is going to take at least 6 months
After years of bullying and peer pressure I've finally started playing Baulders Gate 3.

A shocking end for a well-respected studio.

Our new producer asked how we differentiate what project a task belongs to and I didn't have a better answer than "vibes".

A title image reads “So Youve Just Been Laid Off a post-corporate message from @katewelchhhh”
“One year ago, I was laid off from my corporate gaming job. For the first time in my 15-year career, I was unemployed without a next secure, salaried job on the horizon. I am either exceptionally lucky or talented, but it doesn't matter which it is - both no longer seem applicable.”
I just saw this instagram post from the incredibly talented and breathtakingly hilarious Kate Welch, who was laid off around a year ago, and I wanted to share it here. It’s an important message, and you deserve to read it:

Abolish ICE. Stop their funding. Call your reps until their ears bleed. Protest. Call for a general strike. Vote at the ballot box. Record everything, take them to court, and off to prison. And most of all, remember the dead. Thirty plus people perished in ICE’s hands over the last year.
Why yes I am a dumbass who left their only pair of working headphones at the office and now has to scramble to figure an audio solution for their early morning meetings.
An update: Unfortunately Freeplay didn’t secure multi-year funding and is potentially looking at its last year of operation. We’re exploring what comes next & want your input.

🔥 From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social : “This is nuts. What the fuck is going on? I’ve never protested in my life… they tell you it’s immigrants — it’s fucking anybody. They’re just trying to scare people. I’m not paid to be here. I have to work in the morning. This is wrong.”
crunch in games is reckless, it’s running a car without oil or care, watching sparks fly and smoke billow and going “that’s what maximum efficiency sounds like, when parts fail I’ll replace them knowing I squeezed 110% from them”
except the parts are people so the driver is evil as well as stupid
Well I guess I lied when I said "I'll do SXSW Sydney next year".
