Steve Morton - TR-49 from inkle is Out Now!

Screenshot showing many overlapping text boxes and UI elements overlapping so much as to be unreadable/unplayable.

Sees a game demo on Steam that allows UI sizing. 👍

Downloads the demo, increases all UI element sizing to maximum, starts the game:
All elements/text boxes overlap each other, making the game unplayable. 🫤

looking for some narrative juice this weekend? Most of our games are on a discount right now - with 80 Days for less than a bus fare.

there’s a category of thing that transcends mere war crime & is more of an affront crying to heaven, any heaven, for mercy, like the kind of perfidious deed bards would get together for days to sing about how hard the gods kicked your ass over, & they just keep doing them

Old Skies has won TWO Adventure Game Hotshot awards, in the categories of “Best Story” and “Best Sci Fi”. Thank you so much, @aghotspot.bsky.social!

My brief essay in this is called "The Art of Writing Lore," and it's about how to take those codex/encyclopedia entries to the next level.

After three years of work, AETHUS is out... NOW! 👩‍🚀⛏️
This is my love letter to survival-crafting games, and it's a full 1.0 package - no EA!

Can you help me spread the word about my little indie game?

Trying to draw with an iPad, but I am struggling with stabilization and smooth inking. Is there one that can help me out?

Mick on the second row! 😳😁

The last few cars with max throttle but slow times (too much downforce?) also didn’t use all of their hybrid%, most finishing with about 50% left. 🧐

Fox Sports must have a bug/mic in my room: After Malukas’ time, I said “That’s the benchmark time!”
Then the Fox commentator said the same! 🤪

Yup. ☺️
Will Power’s really not happy in his new team car. 🫤

When we made this for YouTube, I think my words were something like, "this is one of the best things I've eaten in a long time". Well, I have to come clean and tell you that wasn't true. In retrospect, there's no maybe about it - it was definitely 100% the best thing I'd eaten in a fxxk of a long time. The combo of sweet, spicy and savory

Made these burgers for dinner tonight. 😎
I added crispy bacon too. ☺️
I didn’t use as much chilli crunch, as the others don’t like spicy food. 🧐

The optional built-in noise cancelling works pretty well. I tend to use DaVinci Resolve's Ai Voice Isolation instead.

Lightweight & clips on to clothing nicely.

I will NOT be holding this tiny microphone in my fingers. One, it looks silly, and Two - a mic-drop with these will just be embarrassing.

Pretty happy with these wireless microphones. The receive plus into USB-C (You can use an adapter for UBS-A (not included)). It will also work with iPhones and iPads with USB C.

A two panel image with two photos from Essex Highways and their Members' Highway Initiative showing work at Glenwood Gardens, Langdon Hills. Both views are a close up of the give way line at the edge of a side road as it meets the main road. To the right is a little bit of curved kerb line and grass beyond. Left is "before" a cluster of tiny potholes where the give way marking was. A repair area is marked. Right is "after" a 500mm (ish) strip of new asphalt with give way markings on top, except the two dotted lines forming the marking are 100mm wide rather than 200mm wide. I have drawn a yellow box around a poorly reinstated/rough patch edge, with runs along the give way markings.

I can see the future! 😳
I know exactly where the carriageway will fail very soon! 🧐😉

Laughs in exasperation and face palms with both hands. 🧐🙄

Stunning victory in Stroud last night.

Look at that majority! 💚😍

Huge congratulations to @helenelliott-boult.bsky.social and the entire team!

Favourite #WorldBookDay moment ...
Asked a hall full of children if any of them knew what a Dalek was ... girl RAN up to the stage and announced ... it's a small onion but strong. Cut it and you'll cry.

Me: .... thinking ...
Me: .. still thinking ...
Finally ...
... Garlic.

“It is codenamed Project Helix, and along with Xbox games it will also be able to play PC games”

Here in the trade, the technical term for one of these is … a PC. It’s a PC.

Fun note on this article, this company uses comfyUI, which boasts a collection of some of the most unethical and exploitative GenAi models.

This whole deal is Netflix normalizing the exploitation of the creative workers—whose works GenAi companies stole to train their models— they hope to replace.
