Saw a post saying "I don't want NSFW accounts to talk about voting, just let me jack off" Buddy, NSFW artists and sex workers are being constantly attacked by a government of nonces trying to distract from their own crimes by pinning the blame on porn. They have the right to speak up about this.

Hey pals, one of my contracts wraps up in September, so I'm looking for new writing, narrative design, and creative direction contracts, short or longer term. Remote, most timezones except Australia. Preferably USA (I'm a night owl!). Flexible on days per week. Reach out! 💜 hannahnicklin.com

Maybe it's stupid of me but I won't share/reshare that really cool article you posted if there's a paywall that stops me from reading it and making my own informed opinion about it.

You know what I'm not a game developer. I'm a game marketing and community manager. Delaney is right. I struggle to grasp the scope of game development AND I've only ever worked in-studio, directly with devs. Imagine the disconnect between dev-publisher or dev-marketing agency.

'How to develop a game' is a set of skills and requires a level of experience that 'games business' just has zero fucking concept of.

Remember when wfh during COVID lockdown nearly made the office estate market collapse And now we have a near total return to office

Uh. Is the strategy to have people weigh on their financials and decide to save up longer for a Steam Machine, and invest in their existing PC game library.....

The Emotion Engine@emotion-engine.bsky.social · 5d ago

Isekai as a genre is exploding in popularity because it appeals to a universal desire to get hit by a truck rather than live in the 21st century.

30's so far has been pure chaos, but somehow, I've been able to approach it with so much more chill than before

Since we're through July, time for a games industry layoff update. Here is what we know 🥸more than half the waves in 2026 have unknown headcounts 🧮2026 is already the second worst year on record for both known layoff headcount, and known layoff waves 💩It is not getting better. It is getting worse

What if we picked up all the cancelled projects of the past 10 years and actually tried shipping them

tbf the last 10% of a whole studio's worth of work is still like an insane undertaking. I think all that stuff would be better publicly available though, rather than locked away in a vault.

I really am a passive community creature because I've done so fucking much in the two weeks I've been around friends than I have in 8 months alone in Paris.

we're hiring for two Technical Gameplay Designer roles: one for Player Abilities & Combat and one for Creatures. come join our adventuring party! ✅ fully WFH studio (US + Canada) ✅ competitive salaries & benefits, pay transparency ✅ incredible team, exciting project! gardens.dev/careers

From a database to a full-fledged bible! ✨🕺 We've collabed with @eddcoates.bsky.social on the Game UI Bible, a 500+ page hardback adventure through the UI/UX of loads of your favourite games 🎮 Let us entice you with a limited signed bookplate by Edd himself and more below 🔗👇

We enjoy doing things when our survival doesn't depend on the monetary value of our production And for some (a gamer subset) when they don't have attachments to our day to day life. Sure game gardening can lead to IRL gardening, but they are parallel and don't scratch the same itch.

God bless the weird mod trend that I keep seeing called "immersive masochism." Yes, of course it's a good idea to simulate the process of troweling on mortar and placing one brick at a time instead of a cubical "brick block"

Alexander Skarsgård is quickly becoming inspirational to me
