Eating the diarrhea cake "because we're not sure there is diarrhea in it" is not activism against the diarrhea. Serving diarrhea cakes to caritative events because "it's just for icing" is not activism against the diarrhea.

in a week that saw microsoft give activision the reins to halo and bungie pivot back to destiny, one thing has become abundantly clear: the people in charge do not have a long-term, overriding plan. they’re just reacting. the result, when times are bad, is chaos

Today is Bi Visibility Day! We see you and you're wonderful. 💗💜💙 #BiVisibilityDay #CelebrateBisexualityDay #ParadiseKiller

Since a dev shared his game concept last month, Steam has been flooded with vibe-coded slop clones. This is what "democratising creativity" actually looks like. Even with AI, your ideas are worthless as long as they can be plagiarised at scale. Gen AI was designed for plagiarism, NOT creativity.

One funny thing I've realized over time is that taking a break from a game you're trying to learn actually does help. I've found it's the case for fighting games and tonight was the first time I've grinded DoDonPachi in a few days and it's the best I've done. This image is just unironically true.

the thing i find most strange about this current wave of pr about don’t worry you can skip the grinding, you can speed up the cutscenes, don’t even worry man is that ff7 (original) is so simple it was a not insignificant of people’s literal first game ever and it sold a billion playstations

NESbot@nesbot.bsky.social · yesterday

FF7 Revelation has more "on-screen guidance" to stop players feeling lost, but SE is already "considering options" for those who hate hand-holding www.resetera.com/threads/16...

Once again a reminder. Don't give them a damn thing and CANCEL YOUR NITRO!

Tomorrow, Discord will place everyone into an age group using account signals. They claim 90% of users won't have to confirm their age. They are also introducing new verification methods if you do need to verify that you are an adult, including Credit Cards and App Stores.

Discord finally confirmed for real when they're rolling out age verification service-wide (tomorrow) and I've not seen a single person make a peep about it

Safer for Teens, Same Discord for Adults

We’re launching a revamped, privacy-focused age assurance solution including methods that won’t require an ID or selfie. Here’s how it works.

This is my new favorite thing.

something to think about before considering supporting Graveyard Keeper 2!

IggyMaid@iggymaid.bsky.social · 6mo ago

Co-founder of Graveyard Keeper dev Lazy Bear Games regularly posts AI art & asks for help with AI gen code Going as far as feeding his own games art into the slop machine The game itself is from 2018 so it predates the stuff, but they announced a sequel & I expect it to be full of AI-gen slop

Apologie publique de crimes de guerre (Nazisme) www.legifrance.gouv.fr/codes/articl... Et venir ensuite expliquer que "techniquement ce n’est pas illégal" ne rend pas le discours moins immonde. La légalité, c’est le plancher, pas une boussole morale

L'Œil de la Justice 🪬⚖️@oeildejustice.bsky.social · 2d ago

Pas mal le serveur Discord de Wikimasters.

I was already honored to be a voice in their game, but now I’m DOUBLY grateful to have @doublefine.com’s continued support as they unabashedly celebrate our collab! (And please don’t worry. While my success & public joy seem to be upsetting to some, I feel like I’m getting to live my dream life!)

TheGamer@thegamerweb.bsky.social · 3d ago

Double Fine's decision to cast Erika Ishii has sparked harassment and abuse online, prompting the studio to shut down replies.

“Everything is 40% more expensive because of AI” is a great line for an opposition party trying to unseat the AI-supported incumbents, if any Democratic consultants wanted to take a short break from dehumanizing trans kids to actually try winning a contested election.

The Steam Frame starts at $1,059, but it was probably supposed to cost about $750, as the RAM crisis continues to raise prices. https://t.co/Oq9XUHM630

My friend made a cool game on a game jam and within a month a slopclone of it is on Steam. This is happening every day for indie devs and I hate it.

Sos "Buy Lazy Kickers" Sosowski@sosowski.bsky.social · 2w ago

Another such case. Every day, an indie game developer making something cool and sharing is getting ripped off by these clowns. Original on the left. Don’t share your game - no sales Share your game - gets stolen

If we wanna cut these off at the source, stop sharing them, stop making videos about them, stop hosting them on your websites. Stop giving talentless hacks the attention they crave. Stop rewarding them for defiling our hobbies.

Good. People should become ashamed of being part of this fandom in any capacity.

Aniimo Pawprint Studios. NO disclosure, claimed they didn't use any and you wouldn't find any in their game. Players found it and have been calling it out since 2025, "sketch art", promotional material and in-game. -y

I recommend you stop telling trans people what they should do and start telling the politicians to advocate equal rights for everyone.

"i have created the machine that thinks." you fucked up a perfectly good graphics card is what you did. look at it. it's got anxiety

jenny tightpants@jtp.bsky.social · 3d ago

i don't care if the danged chat bots are "thinking." that's not my problem. stop putting them in my computers

The problem with the modern day is that we’re so obsessed with subversive media and complex characterizations that you can’t even call someone a “good girl” anymore, you have to call them a “morally gray girl”

No one is *forcing* anyone to do a shitload of recomps. Recomps are great, but the whole point of them isn't to just have an assembly line to pump out poor quality ones just to have them; it's a way to preserve older games, understand them better, and make them more accessible to new audiences.
