3D printed a material I worked on recently & just want to share that it's WILDLY satisfying holding a Substance Designer material you made yourself in your hands. The forbidden gummy.💜 Would any fellow devs /artists I follow be interested in having materials they made be 3D printed? ✨

As I put the finishing touches to my talk for #developbrighton, I'm looking for stories from developers, of the most exceptional or outlandish things that players have done to show their love for your game. Was it unhinged fan art, multi-volume fanfic, tattoos, themed weddings..?! #gamedev
Created spaces like these because this industry, and world, is nothing without community. 💚💚

If anyone is looking to hire a Peabody and BAFTA winning senior writer, I am looking for work. I’ve got six years experience in games. Everything from indie to AAA. I am not married to staying in games. I am hoping to relocate to the Bay Area. I am keeping my ears to the ground.
South of Midnight’s dialogue is a masterclass in laying down words that leave you raw but opens up the world in return. @zeestermeester.bsky.social and @epistellar.bsky.social helped make that happen. Follow their work and hire their expertise. You’ll receive an evocative story as a result.

Sorry, maybe I shouldn't say this but ahahah. I am very angry. So I went to Xbox's Fan Fest event to attend a preview event. And it was the most flagrant display of wealth imaginable. Five stories filled with caterers and hundreds of smiling faces there to assure me of the brand's strength.
Imagine owning Double Fine and even *considering* closing it. The history of Double Fine is the history of the games industry itself. This is a crime.
BREAKING: Several Xbox studios, including Compulsion, Ninja Theory and Double Fine, are negotiating with Xbox as they try to avoid closure. Some or all could spin off. Lots still in flux as many studios remain unsure about what's happening. Here's the latest: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA. Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.
