GDC needs to be replaced.
The replacement must be:
* Run ethically to support devs
* Run in a safe country

Worth remembering that at times like these that hope is itself an act of rebellion.
Don't let anyone convince you to become complacent.
This happened to me years ago when I was running a small work for hire thing.
Client had gotten to owing me about $30k, and I had been paying folks out of my own savings.
Shortly after having my lawyer send a letter that the money turned up.
If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

I LOVE this use case! Not an intended one but so so cool to see EstroBox buying useful in other ways!! 🤩
This is an incredibly valid perspective
... But can I subscribe to shrimp facts?
Schrodinger's Cat Burglar is in the Steam #NextFest!
🆕 Minor demo updates w/ localisation!
👥 Split into two quantum cats to solve puzzles.
⚛️ Play with quantum concepts including Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle.

if steam is asking developers to put in an AI-generated content disclosure, i should be able to filter those "games" out of searches because trudging through next fest demos is miserable now

This is so messed up. Don't do ads on TikTok for your game, I guess
Remember ... This is by the idiots who want to have AI write the majority of their code.
Win 11 updates are now dangerously unreliable, there's no useful new features just their shit chatbot and data scraping added to more things.
Also, many windows games now run better on Linux (just via steam)
So I've been having a lot of thoughts lately on how to combat AI slop in games (and other things too).
And I think we have a powerful tool to go so, because AI doesn't have a "unique voice" in what it makes.
AI can't create something that speaks like HR Geiger, Lynch, or Maddie Thorson.
Some even came with cloth maps! That was the good shit.

This is a fucking lie.
Games degees have never been reliable pathways to get into the industry.
And it's harder to get a job in the industry now than it was during the global financial crisis.
I hope this isn't a plan to lure people into "repeat forever" courses and "churn and burn" internships.

hey @support.bsky.team @bsky.app explain this bullshit
Today I am on strike.
Posted in October - "Discord says hackers stole government IDs of 70,000 users" arstechnica.com/security/202...
Shared with us from Sydney happening now. He had his hands up.
"never thought i'd die fighting side by side with the annoying orange"
"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.
it's so grim. so many experienced people told them this years ago. programmers said vibe coding would create security and documentation risks. writers said editing would eat as much time as generation saved, and quality would suffer. stop? why stop when you can accelerate into the wall harder.
What the shit creative Vic?
Gamers love NFTs — they just don’t know it yet, says Bored Ape’s CEO
'Data from hundreds of public bodies in England shows only four complaints about transgender women in women’s single-sex spaces over a period of three years'
Sounds like a non-issue being spun to stoke hate against a minority by bad faith 'feminists'.

AGDQ is going so hard on standing up for trans rights this year, I absolutely love the total lack of subtlety going on in this design
Games Done Quick overall are an incredible group of folks, and make the world a better place, so of course I'm gonna do my part & wear my support with pride 💜
A woman with nerf guns in tight metallic jeans, a wine red cropped top and suspenders. There is a deliberate "resident evil character" vibe to the outfit. Additionally there is nothing straight about this image.
Today I came home to @attie-has-tea.bsky.social throwing an elaborate hyjinx to help me decide what clothes to donate to an op shop.
He turned the living room into a full on runway.
As a result I stumbled on a few outfits I didn't realise I had that go pretty hard.
