If we could ask a quick favour of any Yarn Spinner user, it would be for those who have purchased YS+ to leave a review. Less than 1% of purchases have left a review. Y'all game devs know how much reviews make a difference, and tools are no different. Help us stand out among AI-coded slop 🙏
Who's the best little guy in the world? 🧡 The one who gets all our games packaged up and put in the cloud? ☁️ The most wonderful computer on the entire planet? 🌎 That's right: It's Stubie!
'Games development' and 'games business' are two seperate things. The sickness lies in the business side. And it is catastrophically sick. In all meanings of the word.
The overwhelming millennial urge to post a video of the rain outside and some cryptic song lyrics, allowing ai assisted geoguessers to pinpoint my exact location, triggering a kill response from any nearby automated drones because my name appears on a government list for being too 'woke'
In response to the unprecedented number of game developers laid off this year, we have created a bundle on itch to benefit a Game Industry Hardship Fund, managed by @videogameworkers.bsky.social. More than 100 games for 10+ bucks! Please share widely and donate generously! itch.io/b/3802/game-...
New BTS video out this coming Friday. It's a ruff one, but I'm sure you'll find it interesting.
The funniest part about the "Citizen Kane of games" discourse from 2013 is I'd argue it did actually have its equivalent moment that year, but it wasn't BioShock Infinite or The Last of Us, it was Papers, Please
J@joealouder.bsky.social · 4d agoRemembered the strand of gaming analysis that was 'when will it have its Citizen Kane moment' mostly written up by people who hadn't seen it or understood its importance
I heard they saw you at the power plant
Every single day Github gets quietly worse and when trying to explain this to non programmers I said it'd be like if a corporation acquired the earth's atmosphere and constantly fucked it up in new and irreversible ways due to greed and ignorance, but I guess that did actually also happen.
Oh my god the second episode of the new series of Strange New Worlds is absolutely amazing. You can tell they had a lot of fun writing and filming this surreal nightmare of an episode.

Can you lovely lot send my way the best #PS1 - #PSX artists you know that might be looking for work? (Generally looking for more crash bandicoot/Spyro looking stuff over photo based/Horror works) It's for a thing 👀 #gamedev #gameart

NEW: I spoke with multiple video game developers and a U.S. employment lawyer to learn more about restrictive side clauses that often prevent employees at major companies from pursuing hobbyist work or personal projects. In an industry renowned for creativity, why are we stifling it?

If you're a game developer... STOP what you're doing right now, and double-check your default *framerate limiting option*. Make sure you set your default to something like 60fps - NOT unlimited. Unlimited by default means on laptops your game will appear to perform well, then tank after 20 min.

People act like it’s impossible to do the right thing and succeed but its actually pretty easy to do it and have everyone love you and you can even be a goofy silly guy and do it
Steven Santos@stevensantos.bsky.social · 2w agoGuess who had the integrity not to accept $1 million to perform at the Riyadh Comedy Festival last year?
Just casually carrying both my grandparents ashes inside an ALDI bag for life. Ironic.
Yeah I'm into BDSM Benjamin Sisko beating the Dominion by arranging for Senator Vreenak to be Murdered
Getting the most ridiculously unexpected emails in my inbox this week. Absolutely chaotic stuff that could be hilarious if it actually goes anywhere. You know how much I enjoy a good bit.
