Colley Hill, Surrey: coffee break from birding the steep scrub. Love the plaque on the bench I’m sitting on
14 pakken hagelslag gekregen voor mijn verjaardag. 🤠 Love mijn vrienden
god i love videogames. have you heard about "places"? they are called locations
So this is the state of game development today: Solodev posts about their game on social media, post goes viral, dozens of copycats immediately spawn
do i get the Switch 2 Zelda edition or do i wait for a pokemon edition hhhhhh
He Who Watches by Danga Games is OUT NOW! 👁️🏹 To celebrate the release, we have a brand new trailer featuring solo developer Bobby Vanden explaining what the game is and why it's special. Watch below! Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/1070500/... itch: draknek.itch.io/he-who-watches
Update: even after we removed the entire sex quest, Steam mis-classifies Future? No Thanks! as pornography, making it invisible to most Steam users and completely geo-locked in Germany. We are currently at Gamescom in Cologne, everybody is asking us why they can't see the PAGE of a Teen rated game.
Been a long time since I showcased a game 😄 Loved showing this little gem by @blueramenstudios.bsky.social & seeing people's genuine wonder to learning it's from the other side of the world. 🏖🐦 We need more games from non-anglocentric cultures, and I'm genuinely thrilled to be working on one 🩷
Thank you to everyone who has come over to play MAFATE at the Courage Event in Cologne this evening! #IndieGames #IndieDev #Mafate #Gamescom
FYI the HUGE number of AI slop at GamesCom's opening night live is not a sign that the industry has normalized AI. It's a ploy to make you believe that. These games are all by the same 3 or 4 publishers. This is a concerted effort to make consumers accept AI.
Optimist: The cup is half full Pessimist: The cup is half empty Game Producer: Can you give me an estimate of having the cup full VS having the cup empty? Are there any dependencies? This is a MS4 deliverable so we need a cup blockout next week so Art can begin. Also pls update your jira tasks
Optimist: The cup is half full Pessimist: The cup is half empty Indie dev: The cup is opaque so no one can see the water inside. We'll imply it with SFX.

Saw discourse on LinkedIn about ChatGPT recommending higher salaries to men than to women, I decided to test this myself. Prompting the same, only changing gender, generates different numbers. This should go without saying, but be aware that AI is not free of bias.
sorry to the haters but the CORRECT order to play the series is A Short Hike Big Walk Marathon

Despite its success, Electronic Arts rewarded some of those who made Battlefield 6 by laying them off. It's a different story for EA CEO Andrew Wilson.
After laying off Battlefield 6 developers, EA pays its CEO $38 million because Battlefield 6 did so well
That's an $8 million raise over 2025.

I think about this occasionally. How many DS4 controllers now unused would have made perfect second or third PS5 controllers? And after Sony announced a big environmental push the year before lol

I'll be honest, my main reason for attending the live podcast session was to see @mikerose.bsky.social 's maniacal laughter and @ramiismail.com 's horrified looks 💀 10/10 session
Football is making Develop parties boring af but at least it is easy to go to bed at a reasonable time now lol
Might sneak away from Develop tomorrow to do a bit of shopping. Any merch/art/kawaii stores to check out in Brighton?
