CRUSH DEPTH a short horror game at the bottom of the ocean is 40% off! store.steampowered.com/app/3938760/...

sparkling layoffs

I had to go on Twitter to confirm this was real because Ship Awesome Games In A Weekend having a hand with six fingers was so on the nose I was about to pass out

I spent years creating the survival horror game I dreamt about as a kid - it's out on PC and consoles now

and ill say it again

An explanation on why Big Walk isn't available on Xbox. bigwalk.game/xbox

vehicles, mecha and other stuff for #portfolioday

I can confirm that this client runs like shit.

Seattle rocks

I like seeing the dev of the SNES core on the Pocket actually telling one of these dudes off. Holy shit.

Reminder this is the chief strategy officer at Xbox...

Definitely check this one out if you are into grimy, PS1-styled sci-fi horror!

On this week's episode, @alanahpearce.bsky.social & @mikebithell.bsky.social sat down with @emaudible.bsky.social to talk about the sound/foley design in @househouse.com's truly excellent BIG WALK. Turns out: dog toys, big rocks, and giant cider bottles. youtu.be/Tp1Dt04c34E?...

Wave f z,d @(20) { f3 p = z * nor(2*C.rgb - R.xyy); d=4; @(6) d+=d, p = p.yzx+sin(p * d - T) / d; z += .1-len(p)/9; O += z*z*f4(2-sin(p*5),)/(.001+len(f4(sin(p*33)/99,p))) } O = tanh(O / 4e2)

some scenes from the level I'm working on today. always fun to work with water, especially in the otherwise dry desert areas.

Tim Sweeney continues his ad campaign for Godot…

send this to your artist friends who are stuck on Twitter and are having trouble branching out

Lots of excitement about the squeaky beach sounds in Big Walk! You'll all be happy to know it's the real thing! Was absolutely giddy to get to record them on an actual Australian squeaky beach in Wilson's Promontory. Yes, if you didn't know some beaches there really do squeak. It is pure joy.

if it's layoffs on ship no matter what, never pay that company for anything. why would you. your money will never reach anyone who worked on what you bought, or respected those people. you'll not be investing in anything in any sense software is on the honour system and these people have no honour

A strip done in collaboration with the @humanartistry.bsky.social , starring Question Hound as he gets some unwanted help for a comic he’s working on:

Welcome To The New Apocalypse

Hoping this new steam capsule does a better job explaining the game at a glance. I'm not really in a major genera so the normal symbols are a bit harder for me. When you see this what does it make you think?

This was a fascinating exercise: find out what went wrong with creativity in the games industry. The conclusion: there are too many cowards controlling too many critical levers, and until we figure out how to put people -taste, creativity, and craft- back at the top, we're going to be stuck.

Spent 8 hours at jury duty today. Remember when we would go to an office for 8 hours a day? what a scam

One upside to Unreal Engine shooting itself in the dick is that maybe one day I won't ever have to open the Epic Games Launcher ever again

Moss launched on consoles today. I'm so excited for all the people who have never played the Moss games to finally get to play them. They are the reason I fell in love with Polyarc in the first place, and so much care went into bringing them to flatscreen consoles. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMwW...

JoeIO is on Fab now. Buy it and tell your boss to buy it at the much higher corporate price (or whatever it is called) www.fab.com/listings/94c...

Cooking something with this game that I feel is very special. I think youre all going to like it

My indie game launches in 28 days. Algorithm, please carry the signal. My indie game launches in 28 days. Algorithm, please carry the signal. My indie game launches in 28 days. Algorithm, please carry the signal.

Proud to announce the next game Vampirium: 1997 Dracula is king of the United British Empire. Kill his enemies and find your own path through a minimalist immersive sim sandbox. Wishlists and retweets massively appreciated (and, you know, massively helpful) store.steampowered.com/app/4035190/...

Just thinking about Barotrauma. Love a game about building a submarine. Should be a whole genre imo

Microsoft engineered this so that it looked the least bad optically while at the same time still committing a slaughter, all so that Satya Nadella can still dick around with more useless AI horseshit. Fuck him and fuck Microsoft.

All my shit in itchio is on sale, including this new thing impromptu-games.itch.io/joeio

Do you know what is irresponsible? Thinking some child porn is acceptable... as long as it doesn't limit the reach of your far right ideologies Not sure why i thought of that just now... because Tim totally didn't say that when he said that. He just said that.. but he didn't. So stop saying he did

if you're not in the know, hourences leaving epic is the reddest red flag of all time

"Game dev is one of those jobs you only do when you really want to. It's not going to make your parents proud, you're unlikely to get rich in an industry that lays off people for making superhits, and its a demanding & confrontative job. Why would you let a machine do the thing you're here to do?"

as predicted! There will be literally no point in anyone installing UE6 I would say "unless they roll back the AI and Verse shit", but that's the whole thing. We're only 8 versions into UE5, UE4 got to 27. UE6 is illegitimate, it's not anything *but* a product of ai psychosis

"Actors and Blueprints will be in early versions of UE6. Eventually, these will be deprecated" RIP Blueprint, you had a good run. www.unrealengine.com/news/the-roa...

this is a good example of how the explicit goal with AI is to relentlessly erase humanity "we decided to not have anyone care to do this step" and just like that, the sense of wonder looking at this piece of art is lost, along with the jobs artists would've had youtu.be/ZR2xbcf3Xyw?...

I'm extremely excited to tease our 2nd game at Earth Giant -- Tank Goblins! You and your friends are a crew of Goblins, driving a tank. You fight in the Undead Gnome war. The focus is on slapstick co-op vehicle combat. It's shaping up to be something pretty special! #TeaseYaGame

Crimson Moon looks great! www.youtube.com/watch?v=9A8G...

This is A Game About Breaking a Cube (that's the name not a description!), an indie horror game where you smash up cubes for an evil corporation. This meat cube is especially fun! Free demo on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3902160/... by indie dev Imago #gaming
