Statues of forgotten divinities can be found here and there in the tunnels of the Underworld Heroes of the Underworld is an upcoming hand-drawn RPG where you play as a party of four anthropomorphic heroes who fight ridiculous enemies inspired by Might and Magic games
Hi I'm a AAA dev who is now indie. It's a depressing time, and it would be uplifting to see games industry folks boycott The Game Awards. Later this year Geoff is going to be handing awards to people who literally use plagiarism machines, after unheard of layoffs. Please just don't go.

Ah~ the PC-98, SRPG-ing, and gorgeous pixel art - the perfect combo! Got a brand new article on TGL's Kisou Shinden Gen-kaiser over here: ko-fi.com/post/Kisou-S...
I stop eating at businesses that use AI in the art/signs. I downvote games that disclose using genAI in their creative processes. I have responded point-blank to clients asking for me to voice in something - who admit upfront to AI placeholders - I won’t even touch it until it’s completely AI-free
Please be vocal about not using AI. We have to normalize it. No "I'm not going to say that because it should be assumed. I'm not going to give them this". We don't have time for that shit ideological shit right now. NOW is the time to capitalize on waning favorability. Ppl want human made

"I already boycott The New York Times/don't have a subscription, what can I do?" A lot! You can: * Share our call for boycott. Tell others about the NYT's role in trans genocide * Stop sharing NYT links, even to dunk on them * Pressure the pension/retirement funds invested in the NYT to divest
"If trans people want a boycott of The New York Times, where's the call to do so?" Here is a declaration laying out how the NYT is a key driver of trans genocide, why boycotts work and why anyone who gives a damn about trans lives and rights must boycott The New York Times.

Let It Go: Finishing games is optional

Ah, my magnum opus from my Touhou phase 2022. The shading took SO LONG to make but it turned out so pretty. #TouhouProject #東方Project #RanYakumo
From 2022. I really enjoyed animating the frills on the collar. I was also really happy with Clownpieces hair<3 #TouhouProject #東方Project #Clownpiece
i find it disappointing how few opportunities there are for developers i admire, peers in this 'scene', to talk about their processes. i fear the cost of everybody being independent will be vast amounts of trade knowledge dying on the vine.
This isnt even remotely exclusive to gacha games, the fans of a lot of slop mainstream genres love playing the victim because they want to be the most popular,the most accessible, the most expressive, the most hardcore,the most experimental & artistically daring,the easiest & the hardest all at once
I see a gacha fan say "people don't respect the artistry in these games" I think: you've already won, total financial and cultural victory, everyone jerks off to your fave, why do you want my approval? The shrewd mammal was unconcerned with the opinion of the dinosaur, let me go extinct in peace.
Hi, I made a steam page for my game, Soft Ruin. If it seems interesting, please consider giving it a wishlist. Thanks! store.steampowered.com/app/2882230/...
You're a vertical shooter. Translating the entirety of the first Darius collection was a job that took me two days and cost Taito or whoever footed my bill like $500 back in the day. If you wanna save money, just don't hire generalist agencies where like half the fee is pure profit margins lol
'Dragon Ball' theme park project near Paris still lacks approval from Japanese rights holders
'Dragon Ball' theme park project near Paris still lacks approval from Japanese rights holders
The ambitious project centered on the hero created by Akira Toriyama has not yet secured the necessary licensing, a process that is far from a mere formality.
