General gamedev update: I want to challenge myself to feel more comfortable using 3D tools! I've been working on this kindergarten game thing and I'm quickly finding the limits of the 2.D system I've currently got set up. I decided it's time to stop avoiding Blender so much. 😆

Io and Arkane under cuts, that's so freakin' sad, I actually have no words on that. These we're two of the studios that I always dreamt to be a part of. This industry is literally a machine that kills passion.

Corporate Greed is not only destroying the world, Is destorying our Passion, our Art, our Dreams. I dread the vision of a future on a climatic unstable planet unable to engage in art or create... There are solutions, but for that we need to organize. And we are getting late for that too.

WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. FUCK?!?! IT'S STILL NOT ENOUGHT??? WHEN WILL BE ENOUGHT?? IT WILL EVER BE ENOUGHT??

I've fallen in love with #thelacerator and I cannot stop talking about it.

11-Bit Studios says its publishing arm accounts for a "substantial chunk" of its revenue - although it passed on a few titles that became big hits. "Would I love to have Cult of the Lamb in our portfolio now? Quite possibly!" www.gamesindustry.biz/11-bit-studi...

I love dumbasses that never worked gamedev thinking that having a consultation group is some sort of illuminati meeting-behind-closed-doors deal instead of, like, having a guy that producers can email to check if blackface is still bad or if medieval knights had flintlocks or something
