Tip for level designers: Get one of these, go to a cafe, and relax. Many of my best level design ideas existed on paper first. Tip for notepad manufacturers: Many level designers would be excited about hexagon patterns instead of square grids.
been seeing a lot more people attempting to play old games "blind" & not look things up for a more "pure" experience, but like. those old games had manuals. i guarantee you can find a pdf of it online, and if its a digital rerelease they probably put it in the folder you downloaded it to.
Here it goes, my Daggerfall-inspired diorama. One of those procrastination projects that arises within other procrastination from the stuff you should be doing. It is crude, I was working on it through anxious times, almost gave up a few times. Planning to put WIP shots/process on Patreon!
My book “This is Fine: Life Lessons for a World on Fire” is out today. Online and at select retailers.

Yesssss. Swapping my usual Wednesday night Monster Hunter crew session for this and can't wait!
House House@househouse.com · 2d ago🔴🟡🔵 BIG WALK 🔴🟡🔵 Out now on Steam, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. Hooray!
Got the patch up and running on my little CRT. Looks really nice! Kind of crazy that there are two other English translations of Kamaitachi no Yoru out there but this is the very first version that's been translated that actually has the game's iconic blue silhouettes.
We passed the initial goal in 4 days! So we've upped it - let's push forward to $200k!! Thanks to everyone for buying the bundle and sharing wherever you can.

Oh hell yes! I've watched like 5+ hours of videos on this game without being able to play it. It's a really unique PS1 narrative horror game.
kazetrigger.bsky.social@kazetrigger.bsky.social · 3d agoA Yuuyami Doori Tankentai English fan-translation patch is underway. This project will involve a brand new, human (non-AI) translation with an eye for capturing the way that students would naturally speak in the '90s. @dungeonchill.bsky.social Thanks for bringing this game to my attention!

For anyone wondering why the translation of Kamaitachi no Yoru is such a big deal, I'd highly recommend giving my video about Chunsoft's sound novel series a watch. It's a bit long, but it goes into the long history behind why these games were so influential in Japan. www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9BT...
I'm trembling while writing this: Kamaitachi no yoru—not the PC remake, not the iOS port, but the actual original SFC version—has been translated at last by ButThouMust, who graciously brought us an English patch for Otogirisou in the past. This is HISTORICAL.
One of my goals with Jazzpunk was to create the game's soundtrack using mostly synthesizers and effects that would've existed "at the time" ie: 1960s. I had built two EMS "VCS3" synthesizers, so I used these in conjunction with many different spring reverbs and tape echos machines, some were DIY
Whenever there are any sort of rules regarding ai, I beg, include a definition. Are we talking 2020s ai boom stable diffusion/LLM-like stuff, or does any tiny specialized 00s/early 10s neural network with no stolen data & minimal resource use count?
If you're wondering if I created variations of the portrait handling different damage states and running out of goblin drool. Yes, yes I did. #ScreenshotSaturday #GoblinGirlGame #indiedev #monstergirl #pixelart #goblin
This is already over $60,000. Let’s keep it going

Great piece of writing on Vampire Survivor and the rise of gambling in games and culture. It depresses me that the 2D action genre has fallen into this pattern where so much of it is about random chance and builds now, rather than moment to moment play, learning and gaining skill.
Mathew Kumar@mathewkumar.com · last wk.Unlocked! Belatedly, I look at Vampire Survivors, and lament that everything is gambling now, even when the only thing you're wasting is your time:
