#screenshotsaturday Got this forest tech demo thing moving in #Picotron. Needs 30fps to stay looking nice, but so far I've managed to procgen all the art in lua so it'd still be a small enough cart for BBS. All my other WIP projects exceeds 256k cart limit 😅 #indiedev #gamedev #scapes #forest

Fun fact: you actually don't have to signal boost the CEO of Epic Games and repost every one of his tweets, you could just, for example, not do that

Just remembered the Alan Partridge mod I made for The Typing of the Dead: Overkill about 8 years ago.

I feel every time anyone writes "developed with a core team of XX" about a game, they have a responsibility to write "developed by YY developers with only XX developers being employed"

The Internet Archive has a museum for the weirdest art of the early web. 🖼️ It’s called GifCities. Thousands of animated GIFs rescued from the first wave of the web. Glitter. Dancing. Cats. Strange little loops that survived. 💾 Go find your perfect retro GIF 👉 gifcities.org #ToolsYouCanUse

starting to think it might be best that the unreal tournament series is now deceased and in community hands

Extremely curious to see how badly BlueSky will butcher the quality of this video ... If you followed me on The Evil Site back in ye olden, you might recognize this as my long-running, never-finished forever-project Myriad. A recent, unplanned bout of unemployment made me pick it up again. Enjoy!

It is very rare to hear videogame trailblazers mention that someone else most likely would have come up with the same idea eventually. So big props to Richard "Levelord" Gray here, discussing his work on HIPDM1 open space deathmatch map. RIP. From "FPS: First Person Shooter Documentary" (2023).

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Richard “Levelord” Gray. From his legendary work on Duke Nukem 3D to the countless players and developers he inspired, Richard leaves behind a lasting legacy. Rest in peace, Levelord.

Rare feeling of working on something that's getting me kind of excited #IndieGame #GameDev #Godot #DarkFantasy #ScreenshotSaturday

This model was the inspiration for my FEISAR re dedesign.

Managed to hunt down two photos of the kitbashed model built by Jim Bowers as reference for the original WipEout game, sometime around 1993 or 1994. You can see the logos on it are harvested from other kits- Toyota and Buick logos, USAF roundels, and more that I'm sure someone else could ID

It’s depressing to see how many homebrew games for old computers and consoles are now resorting to AI art - especially for loading screens/cutscenes. Get a pixel artist who CREATES something . Oh, and while we’re at it, stop all these “Claude” ports of games. Code it yourself or don’t bother.

Imagine Aseprite or another #pixelart program inside Blender? Pixel Perfect Pixel Art drawing and texture painting on top of the model in the 3D viewport and in 2D. Drawing, painting, selection tools, layers, texel density (pixel size) setup and density zones (multiple pixel sizes). #blender3d

Amazing to see this surface this morning! Rare's Project Dream, the SNES RPG that evolved into Banjo-Kazooie, has had its early proof-of-concept prototype anonymously released after all these years. Thanks to VinciusMedeiro (via Twitter) for the heads up!
