It's finished ✨ While playing Octopath Traveler 2 I fell in love with the HD2D art style and wanted to recreate it in Unity. I then decided to try and make a small piece of Fanart for Frieren while I'm at it 😊 This is the result. #Frieren #Unity3D #HD2D

2001 was the year when I started to really get into Manga. In November of that year, the shortlived german Jump-adaptation 'Banzai' released it's first issue and I was hooked. Really recommend Trentin's series on the History of Jump - the videos are so interesting and well put together 🙏

New video is out! Let's dive into what Shonen Jump was like in 2001! youtu.be/MfDG6T8x9yY

GameJam is still ongoing. I'm just way too busy to post regular updates. I'm somewhat happy with the atmosphere, feel and audio. The stalker enemies are still wip. And there is still so much to do in terms of story. Let's see what I can do over the final 24 hours.

ScreamJam progress day 2: - I have my hotel base layout ready - I added a headbob - I added interactable outlines - I build a nifty little elevatar ♥️

My raycast-based snowboard controller is finally getting somewhere 🥰 My biggest struggle so far was how to calculate the closest position on a concave mesh-collider and the answer was octree & barycentric coordinates. I was kinda hoping to avoid that but in the end it was super fun implementing it.

What an amazing game. Can't remember a time I ever felt that "smart" in a game and to experience that with a group of friends is really special. Beautiful.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

Was walking past this building and through the window saw this backrooms-ass room, so I accidentally took the coolest picture ever due to the window's reflection

Halo. I could and did play it because the mechanics were always top notch, but the setting, lore and visual aesthetic of the franchise are doing nothing for me.

Kristin 🇨🇦🤓@faierius.bsky.social

No hate, no dogpiling, just curious. For me, it's Skyrim. Don't know why, considering it should be exactly my kind of game, but it just didn't click for me.

HI FRIENDS! I am launching the GoFundMe for my Facial Feminization Surgery today! I’m having to fundraise in a very short amount of time due to insurance shenanigans, so every little bit helps! Please donate if you can, reposts are deeply appreciated. 🏳️‍⚧️💜🏳️‍⚧️

gofund.meDonate to Support Sage's Facial Feminization Surgery, organized by Sage DeviantOn August 26th I'm scheduled for facial feminization surgery. I've been workin… Sage Deviant needs your support for Support Sage's Facial Feminization Surgery

finally got a formal quote for ffs yesterday. i’ve been negotiating & managed to get a number of procedures reclassified as “medically necessary”, but it’s still more than I can afford by myself. i’ll be launching a gofundme tomorrow to fundraise before the cut off date for surgery deposit.

Guess I'm really lucky that I can freely pursue my hobby gamedev projects at the studio I'm working at. Even from a capitalist standpoint - Why would you want to stifle your employees interest to get better at their craft in their free time?

Chris Kerr@kerrblimey.bsky.social

NEW: I spoke with multiple video game developers and a U.S. employment lawyer to learn more about restrictive side clauses that often prevent employees at major companies from pursuing hobbyist work or personal projects. In an industry renowned for creativity, why are we stifling it?

So I was searching up snowboard games on steam, for references and stuff and after I entered 'snowboard' the top of the list result is this pretty amazing looking bathtub(!?) game called 'Snowboard' sitting with 11 revies at mostly negative and a price point of only... 194.44€. What a steal.

Went to an arcade in Halifax that had a framed portrait of Shigeru Miyamoto looking like he's about to be at the center of a murder mystery in the pacific northwest

God I loved Kingdom, the historical Korean horror series where scheming royals deliberately brought the deceased king back to life as a zombie so they could pretend he wasn't dead for their own machinations and caused a zombie outbreak. Anyway, what's the dying American dynasty up to?

Mitch McConnell’s aides have provided an “update” about his health that includes no photo or video evidence of the Republican senator himself.

Give me the vertical birds money design. It's so neat.

EU homies, for the next 2 months we can vote for a new euro banknote design I believe cool animals, which a not tied to a specific country are cooler and more inclusive, than famous people faces, so if you’re interested you can go vote for a design of your choice! www.ecb.europa.eu/services/dat...

June 2026 marks my ten year anniversary of being a self-employed artist - now I give up. Seriously. Today sucked big time. The car being just the cherry on top. I know there will come better times and I'll do everything in my power to turn the tides but I'd really could use some help now.

Damn, Barret spitting bars. Next time I'll take the elevator.

every time i see people taking the stairs in FF7 Remake I wonder how many people never even see some of Barret's best lines in the game because they're exclusive to the elevator route

Imagine owning Double Fine and even *considering* closing it. The history of Double Fine is the history of the games industry itself. This is a crime.

Jason Schreier@jasonschreier.bsky.social

BREAKING: Several Xbox studios, including Compulsion, Ninja Theory and Double Fine, are negotiating with Xbox as they try to avoid closure. Some or all could spin off. Lots still in flux as many studios remain unsure about what's happening. Here's the latest: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

If anyone is looking to hire a Peabody and BAFTA winning senior writer, I am looking for work. I’ve got six years experience in games. Everything from indie to AAA. I am not married to staying in games. I am hoping to relocate to the Bay Area. I am keeping my ears to the ground.

Beeing one of those players at a convention, I can a 100% attest that this is game is super cool and very approachable!
