After a loooong break, I’ve gotten back to my space photography solo project! 📸🛰️🦠 And I decided to get rid of my menu systems, everything is now physical and diegetic, and I really enjoy how chaotic it gets having to handle your own freshly printed photos in low gravity!

Please be careful about how you allow the press to frame what's going on internationally. It matters a great deal. Those were not "riots", they were protests. They were legal. Illegal degradations happened at their fringe. MANY of those were literally caused by the police.

The mayor of Saint-Denis, Bally Bagayoko, literally used himself as a human shield to protect students from police violence

Beaucoup de jeux essaient de mélanger les genres, mais cette approche est encore trop subtile à nos yeux. On part donc à la recherche de ceux qui ont plutôt décidé d'atomiser les genres à coups de batte de baseball. ᯓ⚾️ Nouvelle grosse vidéo ! ➡️ youtu.be/lfZ8WPPRr1M

Il nous a fallu 9 ans pour atteindre 1000 abonnés. 2 ans pour atteindre 5000. 1 an pour atteindre 10,000. On nous dit souvent "je pensais que vous aviez plus". Mais c'est parce que nos quelques soutiens ont la gentillesse de faire du bruit ! C'est grâce à vous qu'on sort doucement de la galère !

while working on improving this system, something went horribly wrong with a quaternion and an old spaceship did crash on earth I'm so sorry to everyone impacted, it will happen again

Hi! I'm a trans gal making Vindica Secrets of Blood, a metroidvania about sacrifice, factory sabotages and violent insurrection. It's for vengeful outcasts with existential dread that like cool movement mechanics & risk reward combat & it's inspired by titles like Iconoclasts, Celeste and Signalis.

J'ai assisté au procès Ubisoft. On y entendait comme l'ambiance terrible qui régnait a servi, aussi, à créer de parfaits travailleurs, s'épuisant à la tâche, emplis de racisme et de misogynie. Et à crafter des jeux qui reflétaient ça. Des jeux 𝒇𝒖𝒏𝒔 🔴 youtu.be/IVV4LKME-K4
