Resident Evil 9, like every other Resident Evil game, starts out really good, steadily gets repetitive, then you end up in a sewer and it's boring

if you don't spent a few minutes making nice little icons for your invisible manager objects, are you really living, #gamedev?

Royalty Free-For-All — Public Demo on Steam DEMO — Iconic worlds collide in this an approachable, hand-drawn party brawler remixing characters, settings, and songs from the public domain. This public demo makes all currently revealed fighters a...

Game I've been working on for 1.5 years has a demo in Next Fest. If anyone's interested in some cute platform fighting, hmu: store.steampowered.com/app/4035380/...

If this is our thought process, I feel like it's time to just admit that presidential election's only remaining function is counter-insurgency. I am also still gonna vote for the Democrat.

But I care less about building consensus on who we should vote for than that voting doesn't work.

Friend has an EV. An app is required to take the charger out at a public charging station.

The app is currently not working, so the charging cable cannot be removed.

This is what deregulation actually looks like...

Tried to use GIMP recently, got so baffled by the UX that I just uninstalled and went back to Paint Dot Net

32x MSAA is the killer feature of Mewgenics.

Keep this in mind, #gamedev

I think these are the only new games I spent significant time with this year...

- Donkey Kong Bonanza
- Hollow Knight Silksong
- Claire Obscur Expedition 33
- Angeline Era
- Fast fusion
- Avowed
- Skate Story
- Metroid Prime 4
- Mario Kart World

Silksong, Angeline Era, and Skate Story top 3 ig?

Notably, making 'anti rage bait' is a whole subgenre of rage bait. We're going in circles, friends.

Capitalism is breaking our brains. Organize your community to resist ICE

People root for live services to fail because the demand for them by executives is killing other genres and playing these games is a hostile, manipulative experience designed for advertising.

And we all watch dumb videos because that's the kind of stuffengagement feeds are good at promoting

We talk about rage bait and 'rooting for games to fail' like it's this deep, moral failing. Video even claims, 'there's no obvious solution to this problem.'

But this isn't some ~mystery~

This is the predictable result of engagement algorithms and an industry that's economically hostile.

Valid lmao. I am also a game developer hahaha. It's my first love, so I am always happy to get in the weeds about game design

Oh interesting lol. I'm usually the one getting accused of looking too deep into stuff 😅 what in my post history made you think that was my vibe lmao

Oh I'm just messin', but my general opinion is that games shouldn't be designed to have regular content updates after launch.

I don't mind an expansion here or there for certain kinds of games, but generally think Live Service games are just not a great medium.

700 out today in my town in solidarity with you all. You're on the front lines of the fight for the soul of our future

"Games are meant to end" philosophy is undefeated

Skate Story is game of the year 2025, easily.

Also, fuck ICE

Dude thank you so much! Mundaun was such an inspiring work, and the stamp tool makes perfect sense for this! If you're at all interested, it'd mean the world if I was able to show you some of the results when we've got a few more assets in :)

Hey I apologize for the cold call, but I'm working on a pencil-drawn dungeon crawler and struggling to cover up the seams in the scans.

Is there any chance in the entire world you'd be willing to share some of your hard-earned wisdom in scanning artwork into game assets? 🙏

look-it alllllllllll those debug tools #gamedev

Thank god GameMaker finally has vector support, even if it's still buggy

Well this is a fun bug.

Triangulating vertices (ear clipping) to draw primitives, and I think I forgot to cinch up the first and last vertex 😅
#gamedev

yah that's what I went with :)

Should grass on a slant stand straight and bend the same as grass on flat ground, or should I keep it turned sideways like this? #gamedev

there ya' go; reduced the number of 'em too

aye, yah, consequence of literally just spawning them offscreen and the wind only going in one direction rn. Guess I could spawn 'em a bit further to the left, but I'm just messing around with floating particles lol

procedural test scene #gamedev

It is never going to stop being funny that Eric Adams had to drop out, even funnier that 6,000 schmucks still voted for the corrupt fucker

They really are :)

This has to be bait or an LLM answer. It *has* to be, right?
