HEY 👇
so secretly we've been working with a cabal of indie devs making the type of strange & distinctive games that we love to play on noclip_2.
tomorrow we're announcing a SHOWCASE on noclip_2 as part of an upcoming Steam Festival about these games.
it's gonna be fun.
we hope you tune in.
Perfection ✨
🎮 Steam Next Fest kicks off today! There are so many new demos to check out, so I'll use this thread to keep track of what catches my eye.
Devs, drop your demos below! Players, let me know what you’re loving so far 👇
Great interview 😊
Digital art showing a white horse laying in a field of green grass and blue flowers with its eyes closed. Text on the image reads: "May this year treat you kindly"
May this year treat you kindly, little horse #lunarnewyear #yearofthehorse #digitalart

A really cool list of resources for making games, with a really well put together website!

bust of a figure dress in a 16th century kirtle with a slashed bodice and chemise overflowing at the shoulders where voluminous sleeves are tied, though the figure herself is a bit strange with skin tags and growth on the crown of her head, hidden by a skull mask with eyes glowing in the sockets.
did a 16th century fashion study but made it spoopy

Get a pass to GDC! Pixelles Ensemble especially considers applications from experienced game devs of marginalized genders who are also:
🎇 Studio founders seeking funding / publishing
🎇 Organizers advocating to improve the industry
This #GDC2026 pass program closes in 3 days pixelles.ca#gdcensemble
However, despite the continued slip in diversity behind the camera, the study found that underrepresented storylines – regardless of the lead actor’s gender – increased in 2024.
“Even as diversity drops overall, we find that the stories are still there,”
That's... Not a good thing...
The West End Cultural Centre says it needs $50,000 by the end of the year to stay up and running.
I really loved this conversation on the Game Makers Notebook Podcast.
Very frank, insightful, and inspiring conversation about running studios and making games.

ZBrush Sculpt Off - Almost. I had a time conflict so I couldn't participate in the actual event. But I was ready to go this year with a practice sculpt (I always just wing it so y'all I was very prepared for this year) I ended up putting an extra hour on the practice so this is all in 4 hours.

*resounding sentiment
This really was the pervasive ideology growing up.
I luckily heard - do not do this - as the responding sentiment from actual people in my life who lived to regret it.
Balance always, but yes the scale was tipped in the wrong way with that sentiment.

Ooo highly recommend getting the "Quiet Posters" tab - I need this on every app 😯 nicely curated little feed here of posts I would very likely miss otherwise.
Another banger movie poster from James Jean 🤯
The full quote: "I think the sublime confusion is from nineteen to twenty-nine. You think you are late for everything, you're a has been, nothing is happening, there's no opportunity for you, the world is closed, everything is a disaster, you wanna die. And then you're thirty. " "You young people are in the exact age of desperation. I never felt more done and old than in my twenties. I'd say 'life has passed me and I did nothing.' But I'm here to tell you that's not true: you have a lot of fucking time."
I love Guillermo del Toro calling ages 19 to 29 "sublime confusion"
