GUYS LET ME PLEASE SPREAD THE GOSPEL OF FREE TAX USA
federal is free, state is $16, handles even my chaotic freelancer taxes just fine, same step-by-step “designed for normies” kind of interface as TurboTax but NOT EVIL

I've updated my Discord server to make it more generalist.
Are you a solo developer or a small team working on indie game projects?
You're welcome :).

Just doing a bit of napkin math on some of the figures they throw out it's ridiculous. Going from couch surfing and having to borrow money to buying an entire place in 3 years for twice the price of your current location?
With only 'pay increases' to account for that? There's some sketch shit here.
people will be like "indies will save the games industry" and then refuse to buy an indie game until it's in a steam sale for 99 cents
Can't fuckin' believe I'm doing this but here goes: Twitter is a mind prison, a true jail of career advancement. I stopped posting on there and within months I became the CEO of The Onion and I'm not kidding. Went back on last year, felt worse, then left again.
Dutch games press is getting gutted left and right, with what was literally my childhood games news magazine Power Unlimited going down just the other day. So, a bunch of good folks decided "we'll do it ourselves". If you're Dutch, go check out Unpause!

It’s interesting how people who used Something Awful 25 years ago still talk like they were on Something Awful 25 years ago and people who used Tumblr 15 years ago still talk like they used Tumblr 15 years ago, but somehow people using X for the last three years are supposed to be unscathed by it.
I'm going to need people to update how they shit-talk people who want stuff done. "Oh, they're mad that they're only getting 30% of what they want" really rings different when the 70% of shit we're not getting is "someone to shut down the concentration camps."
Oh yeah, they're great brain fuzz music, one of my favs when working.
Good bubg, needs smaller support bubgs.

Also when you clearly state, as he did in his tweet, "We had no interest in replacing *any* developers with AI," while having AI do writing and character voices, that means you do not think writers and VAs are game developers.

people get mad about everything being mogging this or that-maxxxing, when full ass adults are out here writing "journalism is better when it's backed by live markets"

MY (honorary) ENTRY FOR THE #ryonajam IS UP and.. hopefully working in Windows, Linux and Mac!
I keep joking to 'not play this', and the content, especially at the end, is REALLY rough, but I'm also proud of what I managed to do in a few months
Lookin' forward to it.
Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers.
If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of:

the reason you don't, and won't, see my $15 or $20 games at $2.99 or $1.99 on sale is because the instant i do that those games are only ever worth 1 or 2 dollars to anyone and i will never, ever, not in any known universe or timeline, make up for that in bulk when my main hindrance is visibility
Just for the joy of creation. Like pulling out the virtual lego.
Snooty has more energy, for sure.

The amount of racism in the Relooted reviews is sickening.
A bunch of assh*les clearly bought the game just to leave a negative review before getting refunded, and another bunch of assh*les are marking these reviews useful for them to be displayed a the top store.steampowered.com/app/3255890/...
I'm... Actually tempted to make a VRchat version of it, in a small scale. This sounds so absurd and fitting for a small game in that.
Man I'm so goddamn sick of ai. "Wahhh you can't have a reasonable conversation about ai on here," yeah maybe be mad about the two year parade of scam artists and financial charlatans and environmental ruiners who have radicalized everyone against the spell check that agrees with you
Ah, what a nice surprise to be credited on a popular and acclaimed new indie game. Anyway, time to take a huge sip of coffee and log into BlueSky
