This industry used to be filled with cool game scouts that’d rock up to 22 y/o devs with a weird game at a show and hand them money. Now a boring man browses ‘most wishlisted’ pages and sends repetitive, increasingly passive aggressive emails.
good LORD
SPRAWL zero@sprawlfps.bsky.social · 2mo agoThe SPRAWL zero demo is OUT NOW! We're thrilled you can finally get your hands on the demo on Steam now! To let you fully dive in, we’ve included the first two levels. So much hard work from everyone here at MAETH, building the game of our dreams! store.steampowered.com/app/4247830/...

This. God, this. It is such a manufactured panic and it started the moment they lost the fight over gay marriage. Support trans rights because it’s the right thing to do and also because this is all just a fascist push
Dr Panti Bliss-Cabrera@pantibliss.bsky.social · 11mo agoTrans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life. And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should
oh no, i don't use the ai for <thing that i am paid to do> it's terrible at that. it's great for <thing you are paid to do> though.
It's unbelievable how well this is coming together at this stage of development. We're going so much bigger and better with this one! SPRAWL is really coming into it's own 😍
SPRAWL zero@sprawlfps.bsky.social · 3mo agoInspired by 2000's FPS like Half Life 2, F.E.A.R, Halo, and so much more. In SPRAWL zero you are a cybernetically enhanced super soldier in a brutal cyberpunk city collapsing under military rule and cult fanaticism.
I've created a new Godot PR! This change adds a Fixed Resolution mode to SubViewportContainer to make it much easier to create low resolution games that handle input passthrough correctly. Want to create a PSX style game that runs at 320x240 with working UI input? 👀 github.com/godotengine/...
Add fixed resolution mode to `SubViewportContainer`. by EMBYRDEV · Pull Request #117104 · godotengine/godot
This adds a new mode to SubViewportContainer that allows the end user to specify a specific resolution rather than the existing behaviour of scaling based on native resolution. This is incredibly ...

So excited to finally announce SPRAWL zero! We've been working on this in secret for the past couple of years! We're taking a leap forward to the 2000s, inspired by the era of classics like Halo! // Y2K is back // www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ju0r...

I really should post here more often, just been in the mines working on the next project 👀
Shower thought, but wouldn't AI in games be better used in comprehending what the player is trying to say? So imagine you ask the player a question and hand author 5 responses to different questions. You then task the AI with determining which question best fits what the player hand typed.
AmmieGa500@ammiega500.bsky.social · 8mo agoHey new MMO with gen AI powered NPC dialogue, how's that working out for you?
Why have we never just asked Nardwuar about the Epstein list?
Godot 4.6 dev 3 completely overhauls SSR and the impact it's had on the overall visuals in the engine is insane. This is one of the biggest leaps forward the engine has taken visually in a while! godotengine.org/article/dev-... github.com/godotengine/...

Sitting on two BANGER video game ideas... both heavily systems driven with main appeal being how deep those get the longer you play. Scope creep trap 101. Really need to brainstorm some smaller ideas for quick 30 minute experiences I can actually ship with 6 months of work. 🤣
Old Soviet joke for today: A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves. After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?” “I’m looking for the obituaries.” “The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.” “Not the one I’m looking for.”

You don’t need Kubernetes. You don’t need microservices. You don’t need 6 layers of abstraction. What most teams need is a monolith, basic CI, and a reminder that users don’t care about your infra.
@noclipvideo.bsky.social Thanks so much for including my game The Crimson Diamond in the intro of this video! When I heard @dannyodwyer.bsky.social and the rest of the crew's desire to boost indie games, I was super heartened. Let's learn about more awesome indie games! youtu.be/HW4BPgyeB3U?...

There is a special place in hell for developers who start their game with an unskippable/important cutscene before I've got the chance to adjust my volume and resolution settings 😤
You know that Unreal Engine is capable of Forward+ rendering with MSAA right? You can just do that. It's not an engine problem. Unreal isn't perfect but running dynamic deferred lighting and TAA is a choice. Sometimes a valid one.
the market is begging for the mech game and my whole network is begging to make the mech game, its amazing how badly capital is being spent in this industry tbh.
I think this little UI tool works good enough as is! No code required, just drop a few animation nodes into your scenes! #GodotEngine #godot #ui
There is no way I'm getting hit up on a dating app to help with this person's game ☠️
Whenever the media or transphobes talk about mental health and suicide rates of trans kids, they are always deliberately concealing the fact that trans healthcare brings trans kids to the same place as cis kids on these things
