Alright y'all, this is it! The final stretch for the game industry hardship fund. We've got $13k to raise in 14 hours to meet the final goal, I think we can do it. itch.io/b/3802/game-...

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-...

This makes me smile so much. More of this!!! People who love Netrunner deserve to be recognized no matter the way they choose to engage with the game, imo. I’m not cosplaying this year but I sure need to set up an outfit for Netrunner worlds for Reasons.

Mauricio Herrera.Hi everyone! <@SlightlyOdd> and I are excited to reveal our cosplay champion card and one of the side event prizes available at Worlds this year: Jailbreak! Edinburgh Worlds was such a fantastic experience, and the cosplay contest was a highlight for us both. We really loved seeing all the costumes people had put together, getting the chance to chat with the other competitors, and being able to show off the cosplay we had worked so hard on! The atmosphere was truly electric, and was so great to see cosplayers of all levels. If you are attending Worlds this year and hadn't yet considered activities beyond the main event, we highly recommend getting involved in the cosplay contest yourself! We unfortunately can't attend Worlds ourselves this year, but we are incredibly excited to watch the cosplay contest on stream and see all the fantastic cards and characters you'll bring with you! *(photo credit: Porfyalum)*A photo of allieflx and SlightlyOdd’s winning cosplay contest photo, as they cosplay core set card Aggressive Trendsetting.Core set card Aggressive Trendsetting, showing one woman looking surprised in the background at another in the foreground whose dress doubles as an aquarium with fishes visibly swimming in it.

If you've used our scripted Learn to Play decks (which we usually send to conventions) to teach or learn #Netrunner, we've developed a new version of them, with an updated script, and an accompanying video demonstrating the first 3 turns of the script! nullsignal.games/blog/new-lea...

every country is going to lead on ai. every country is going to have the biggest data centres. every country is going to build small modular reactors to power them. every country is gearing up to compete on quantum computing. i’m so tired of all this bullshit.

So, okay, if you are someone who plays #MtG, let me pitch you on how #Netrunner feels to play. You know the idea of a 'fundamental turn'? Setting up your resources to execute your game plan and cinch it? Netrunner is a game where you have to think ahead to land _multiple fundamental turns_.

On Thursday evening Valnet issued new contracts to writers at TheGamer instituting a minimum article viewership threshold for payment. Most writers already have pay tied to article performance, but this new system would mean that if a piece didn't get X number of clicks you wouldn't be paid for it.

No better time than the present to get off Google and the rest of those shitty US tech companies.

Getting off US tech: a guide

I’m in the process of dropping US tech services. Here’s how I did it, and options you should consider.

Google is transforming Search from a list of links into an AI-powered experience filled with conversational answers, autonomous agents, and interactive interfaces — a shift that could further reduce traffic to publishers across the web.

VERY excited to share this big project. Many games are made in Canada, but few are *set* here.
 So, I spoke to 20+ devs who have been making all kinds of games that take place in Canada.
 From showcasing stunning landscapes to telling diverse stories, these games paint a vivid portrait of Canada. 🍁

Canada rarely gets to play itself -- these games are changing that

From showcasing stunning geography to telling diverse stories, here's how developers are representing Canada in their games.

Very funny watching the spoiler video on this get hyper-focused on the fork. 😆 Clarification from the artist: it's a fork. It's designed after the standard IKEA dinner fork, which has a very thick handle and overall design. The cake is Mandarine Schmandkuchen, as requested by the NSG team.

Every month the United States provides even more reason to boycott its products and companies — the strikes on Iran being just the latest. In light of that, it’s a great time to ditch the products and services of US tech companies. I made a comprehensive guide to help you.

Silicon Valley’s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we can’t depend on US tech companies. For the past few months, I’ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!
